Number of items listed this week: 238 (67 personally)Hit our new survival goal of $1250 per week, so that is a positive.
Returns are really out of control, 6 this week which is really high, we do free
returns, but will monitor over the next few weeks to determine if it is still a good option.I listed 68 unique items this week. I can’t believe it, I felt like I was really struggling to list. Hope you all had a good week!
Yes! Vintage Lacey did win, I was way too late submitting! And I was not a machine this week, but you guys definitely keep me moving.
I listed 28 this week, but look out, I am gearing up for this week, LOL. Great job everyone!
Thank you @Sharyn, this was perfect. Truly appreciate it!
This is great information, how did you end up shipping? Fedex? Was it worth it?
Oh this is great information, I am going to check out plycon now.
I checked out fedex freight and have used greyhound (even though there is one near me) and no thank you! It was a nightmare to box and wrap.
I appreciate the information because I often feel like I am missing something and there is a better way to do it.
I have heard you talk about shipping rugs . . . what is the method you use for that? I have mine as local pickup at this point because of the size. But it seems like you have a way to do it?Great podcast, thank you. I never thought about online auctions as a legit source of items, but I may start looking. I honestly always get sick of dealing with consignors in February and say I am done, it never lasts though!

Number of items listed this week: 58Lots of returns, and we barely made our survival goal. I really need to implement some changes because our goal is 2k per week, survival (“keep the lights on “) is 1k
I missed the deadline for submission, but I listed 58 items this week. Now I need to get back to digging out of the snow and sleet! Have a great week, when I don’t feel like listings, you guys keep me going!
I can’t even imagine how you get that much done with 5 kids! How???? I think you are doing pretty amazing!
Can’t wait to listen on my Monday night drive! I’ll post my numbers now.

Number of items listed this week: 84 (68 personally)Decent week, good amount of sales and our average sold price is slowly
climbing. Trying out a few items on Mercari, and refreshed our booth
at the local antiques mall.That sounds like so much fun! I wish you weren’t across the country, I would love to play your Superbowl version!
I am so happy, I did 68 listings this week! I am really happy with this because I had some items I was really dreading, and now it is done. Now to tag and put away . . .oh and I am going to try and beat that number this week!
Excited to listen this evening on my Monday drive, here are the numbers, which are motivating me to do better this week!

Number of items listed this week: 69 (38 personally)Another slow week, although our average sold price is slowly climbing
I did not spend enough time listing this week, so not suprised sales were
a little low.Sure, I went back and looked at the transaction (I have the best offer option on all my listings). The listing where the guaranteed delivery case was open was one I accepted a best offer on. So . . . guaranteed delivery works when you use best offer.
The guaranteed delivery claim is something different than a return, as the seller, you don’t see the details.
