Did your neighbor do the big auction sale to get rid of all his wife’s clothes?
Ryanne has joked (not really) about starting an appliance parts business. She dreams of getting broken appliances for free and parting them out.
A leaky basement is never fun. Its not easy/cheap to keep water out. Out here in the country, people just assume wet floors and install a sump pump in the floor. Thats the redneck way.
Glad sales are picking up. We’ve always said that the only control we have is what inventory we list. Sounds like you’re getting better and better at finding items that collectors want.
I did get some good stuff! I never bring enough cash. There’s always stuff I want but I cant pay for it.
Interesting that Etsy is slow. Maybe its just a good selling place during holidays? I’d like to see if Mark pops back in to update us on his Etsy experiment.
Fun to watch you sell those challenge coins. Seems like a pretty deep collectible universe.
It reminds me of Home Alone where the family is going to France for xmas vacation. How did those parents afford flights/hotel to Paris for them and six kids!
Yeah, flea markets are only good if there are cleanout people looking to move their inventory. Otherwise its just an antique/collectible mall.
Sounds like eBay can be on the backburner while you excel in everything else in your life. If you win that company award, will they send your whole family.
Yeah, we’ll see how the summer goes. I assume it’s going to get slow. Your numbers look good this week!
Good news is that you’re still selling even though you’re busy doing other things. Crazy you have two kids going to Prom. Assume graduation soon. More room in the house?
You make a good point. There’s always money to be made buying old collections if you can get them before they hit the auctions.
You did have a good week. I’m glad to see its not slow across the board.
Good to see you again! It is interesting to hear how selling new items is too low margin. This is my feeling when I see other resellers try to buy items from China for resale.
Scavenging old items and reselling seems the best mark up. Just takes more time sourcing.
