Spent this week: About $30A good week with mostly new items selling, though I have been listing my vintage backlog. With this small store, it really seems like I need to drop some coins in and pull the handle to get some payout. If I don’t list it is pretty quiet. Worked on napkin rings this week and other assorted items. I think I’m switching to linens perhaps this week. The nice thing about piles is variety but sorted types of items to list.
I did go to a very fancy rummage sale but it was kind of disappointing this year, which is good I guess since I am working the backlog. I should have taken photos to share here. The former estate where it’s held is gorgeous and in Oprah’s neck of the woods. They have it set up by category in different buildings on the grounds and some areas have lines. I definitely should do it in a different order and go earlier next year. Also I prefer more modern, clean lines and there was a lot of very fancy antiques, silver, etc. No Vera Neumann linens this year sadly.
My son has a new school dress code next year and is recently into a men’s large, so it’s like shooting fish in a barrel to find great used stuff for him. Normally I’m not a fan of looking through clothes. We only have one Goodwill downtown. Their inventory is very fluid and in a good location for donors.
Have a great week trash elves and Happy Mother’s Day to the hardworking moms, especially you homeschoolers. Love my kiddos, but I don’t know how you do it!
+1 what sonia said. we do the same
# of items is about 6600 total. (holy what?)also, you might want to join Bigger Pockets forum and throw the scenario up there. lots of friendly people with good advice there–
https://www.biggerpockets.com/forums/67-rehabbing-and-flipping-forumwould love to see the listing if you’re willing to share. or you can email me off list, just curious to see how they’ve described it. thescavengerlife@gmail.com
i can’t see a reason why not to do this. there is never a good time to drop 65+k, so you might as well just do it. owner financing is pretty sweet and rare!
nice work. yeah the RN number will reveal all.
https://rn.ftc.gov/Account/BasicSearchit might depend on the country or if you have Best Offer on the listing, because they can’t show import fees on an item you might take a lower price for. that’s just my theory?
not sure jay understood, but in your listing i think you can take out your exact location and just show the state, it’s one of the last sections on the listing page called Item Location, you can just delete your town name i believe.
yep i agree with you and i don’t think it should cost more money. 12 images only? in 2017? even Craigslist allows 24 photos. no video hosting and no embeded Youtube videos allowed after June? server space is getting cheaper by the day ebay needs to step up.
yep, i’ve given myself 3 days. trust me if i say we get home on X day, people are asking for shipping info on that day. i’m like gimme a sec!
i just bought one on ebay, US seller only
i’m confused, you called ebay or not?
your item got to KY ok and then it’s stuck overseas?
