It’s great to see such good sales. You have what people want.
And I don’t mind a long drive to pick up at an auction, but it does depend if its into a busy urban area or out in a rural area. Wonder if you went into SF or Oakland….or if you went down south towards Gilroy or Santa Cruz?

What we do is store as many as we can without breaking them down. But once our shelves are full of boxes, there obviously isn’t a need to keep more. At this point, we need to sell and use the boxes…or just recycle.

Cant read the signature, but thats a super awesome wood carving.
What does the stamp say? We only see part of it in the photo.
Glad you could stop by. Sound like you’re making it happen!
Yeah, if the Dyson motor fails, then its time for replacement. But the rest of the vacuum is modular and pieces can be replaced. Sir Dyson is definitely using lots of cheap plastic.
Sorry we missed you. If we’re not roasting, Ryanne and I are usually the afternoon crew that helps clean the cafe and restock for the next day.
Were you guys driving across the country?
I looked at the loan that I think we’re talking about: https://www.sba.gov/funding-programs/loans/covid-19-relief-options/eidl/covid-19-eidl#section-header-0
From what I see, you can borrow up to $25k without any hassle. But anything over $25k needs collateral just like any loan. So you’d need to tie up property or your home to cover the life of the loan.
And as retro said, there may be some reporting rules on what you spent the money on that’s business related.
Thats very good to know. Seems like its best just to change handling time.
Yeah, I think this is the biggest myth among new business people. They think if they start an LLC, they can do whatever they want and suffer no consequences. Instead they still have all the liability and then the extra cost/expense of the LLC.
Holy Guacamole! You are really the big player around here. That’s an awesome sale!
Its always incredible to me how few of those items arent broken. I’d be very scared to buy industrial items that I couldnt test. You prove it can be done!
How long did they take to sell?
Yeah, its hard to tell whats up. Maybe the start of the pandemic lock down last year got everyone buying more than usual. I know we had a tremendous summer in 2020.
Maybe we’re just back to summer slowdown from past years.
Another thing I did with eBay this week was purchase a new photography station desk. I found the perfect metal and wood teacher’s desk on GovDeals and won the auction for the starting bid of one dollar! I had to get help getting it in my van since it was so heavy. Getting it down to my basement was a chore! But it’s just the perfect size and will last forever. And I checked the brand online and found out they retail for almost $800.
This is awesome. We’ve purchased some cool stuff from GovDeals. Where did you pick up? In PA?

You’re better man than me building that fence. That’s a no-joke project.
