Wonder if the card market is cooling off. Craig Rex, whats it look like to you?
Are you mainly selling clothes on Mercari? If Mercari is doing better than eBay, why not just go all in on that platform?
Cool. I’ll be interested to see your progress and results. We’ve seen people jump over to Etsy and do the same amount of business as eBay because they liked the Etsy community better.
Not sure if we’ve seen anyone duplicate all their eBay listings to Etsy and increase/double sales. It’d be awesome if Sixbit makes that possible. You have the inventory that Etsy likes.
I know fast crossposting is the holy grail of reselling. Since Etsy requires different info from eBay (and square photos?), how does Sixbit make the process faster? Can you give an example of the time spent?

I call it “drunk junk” in a lovable way. There are collectors who buy items from the early movements that became Alcoholics Anonymous. Or, someone owns that house now and we have the card from then house.
Oh boy…number one: have a lot of money
Have either of them ever roasted coffee? What is their motivation? Make big bucks? The love of the craft? Who will be their customers? Online orders? Local restaurants? Cafes? are they just roasting coffee or also opening a coffee shop? Where is all this going to happen? How much would they need to make each month to pay themselves and their COGS?
Just like your eBay business, it’s all about the process and the numbers.
“Examples of prohibited reselling include the following: Curating a collection of others’ handmade goods that you did not design or make”
That is weird. I wonder if its to avoid sellers buying someone else’s inventory and competing against the creator.
Always fun to read your updates. Having watched you grow the past handful of years, it’s extremely inspiring to grow an eBay business and not burn out. Most people I’ve seen drop out after a year because it’s so many constant details to keep up with.
$10k would go a long way towards building storage if you’re having issue organizing that many items.
I would dearly love to get a New Year’s podcast if you would consider that update R&J.
No promises.
It still surprises me how consistent my number have been over the past 5 months or so.
Agreed. Its fascinating how consistent our store is with such a diverse inventory. It’d make more sense if we only sold a couple similar sku’s.
I seem to have no problem in finding quality items at a good price. Maybe it is just that I have become more knowledgeable, I don’t know. I repeatably go to estate sales with great quality items and no one seems to even look at these great items. I am convinced that people who go to estate sales around here have no idea what the great items are. I think most are just people looking for things for themselves and then never get beyond that.
I agree that there’s still lots of places to find good items if you have the knowledge. How many hours a week do you scavenge?
