I use UPS almost every time for items over a few pounds. Many of my sales are 6 to 12 pounds. Very rarely is FedEx or USPS less than UPS for me. I use Pirate Ship most of the time for UPS because it’s a little (sometimes a lot) cheaper than eBay.
@sharyn – Never knew this choice existed. FedEx and USPS were selected (by me, eBay?) but not UPS. THANKS!
Scammers. I’ve had similar things happen on Craigslist. They want to come over to pick it up and give you a bogus money order. Or send it to them outside of eBay and they will deposit cash into your account. Or something like that.
She bought some of them wholesale, others are arbitrage. Not real diamonds. She was going after the sparkly bling market. I think she’s had a hard time getting to a real person on eBay to resolve this.
I used my coupon to buy new underwear. Got a kick out of getting reminded about my eBay journey. I joined in 1998, first purchase in 2001, first sale in 2001, first mobile app purchase in 2011.
@sharyn, which Duck gun? I see several. https://www.walmart.com/search/?query=Duck%20tape%20gun
@jay, I’m flipping for fun and to supplement my retirement income. I’ve been buying and selling on eBay for years. As a drummer, I’ve bought and sold a lot as many hobbyist musicians do. In the last couple of years I’ve sold quite a bit of my personal collection of drum stuff, vintage radios and pottery. Also, I’ve always had a fondness for shopping at thrift and antique stores as well as general junk collecting. When I saw how easy it was for me to list and sell stuff I already owned, I decided to source for the purpose of flipping as a serious hobby. It’s a natural for me as I’ve done product marketing for decades. Curating product content for descriptions, specifications, images, and copywriting is a natural for me. I love the thrill of the hunt, and making some extra bucks helps pay the bills.
