i posted about 5 items and suddenly i’m getting dozens of people sharing and following me. it’s very confusing. I can only assume it benefits those people to take the time to do this. I looked at some of their profiles and they are “following” thousands of people or have shared over 20,000 items. it’s crazy.

Hi I was the caller talking about Offer up. Yes I’m in a metro area. That’s why i was saying Offerup and FB doesn’t work for you guys. You can see all the items I sold last month. The last column is where i sourced it from and the cost. I do a lot of “junking” Yes most of them are 20-30 dollar items. I spend time talking with people and organizing the transaction. But for most sales I do “porch pickup” where i setup up sale. Give them my address and they leave the money under the mat on the front porch. So yes, I don’t sell weird antiques very often, or a whole lot of clothes. So yeah this should answer you questions for what I’m selling and what I’m selling it for. Keep it up guys!

Thanks Jay!

Hi everyone! I just went back and re-listened to episode 300 (congrats) on Taxes. You mostly covered full time sellers on the taxes discussion and I’m just a part timer looking for advice. Since the first of the year I’ve sold 86 items for $5,529. I believe that ebay will report a seller if they go over 200 items or 20k(sound right?). Any other part timers trying to stay under the limits? Any advice? I really don’t want to have to start reporting taxes if I can stay under the limit.

Also, you guys always talk about your 2nd store. I’m thinking about opening a second store under my wife’s email/paypal once I start getting close on my account.

Thank you guys! You and Pete (Craigslist Hunter) have been the best resources to learn this industry.
