I wonder if that’s a new rule as I’ve sold Converse All Stars to Japan in the past.
10/23/2017 at 1:13 pm in reply to: Scavenger Life Episode 331: List and Forget, The Buy And Hold Strategy Of Ebay #24332I had that happen a few weeks ago with faux snakeskin Fender amp, $400 sale to Australia but it was intercepted in Kentucky, not even fake snakeskin will ship international.
I’d like to go to a Pitney Bowes warehouse sale.10/23/2017 at 1:08 pm in reply to: Scavenger Life Episode 331: List and Forget, The Buy And Hold Strategy Of Ebay #24331Oct 15-21 2017

It was part of an Apple IIe system I picked up at an auction last week.I’m pretty must all list it and forget it although occasionally I’ll browse my items and make some obvious adjustments. Whenever I list something Jay’s voice is in my head, “this could take a couple years but it’ll sell”.

10/20/2017 at 2:08 pm in reply to: What Sells On eBay: Old airline calendar, film, Beatle Boots, Levi trucker jacket, telephone, Wool Blazer, Ford parts, Turntable #24187It cleaned up real nice.
I plan on finding a realistic electric insert for it.I won’t advertise with a public link here on SL but it should be easy to figure out watching the videos.
I wonder why eBay doesn’t just capitalize on the unique vintage item market that Amazon has seemingly abandoned.

I graduated from Mankato Wilson in 1976, maybe I knew her.
10/05/2017 at 4:10 pm in reply to: What Sells On eBay: Lamps, models, Army field jacket, Crock, boots, tapes, hats, Koi dishes #23640I was not familiar with Reglor either until researching them. I just thought they looked cool especially with those shades, I figured I could get my money out of them just for the shades.
These indeed were not stamped but matched the images I found online. The research indicated most were stamped.10/04/2017 at 8:40 am in reply to: Scavenger Life Episode 329: 200+ Ebay Sales To Pack. We’re Not Complaining. #23592Thanks, they do that all the time.

Lots of high priced items sold this week.
The Magnavox was cross posted on eBay and CL, the buyer messaged me his ph# through eBay and emailed me through CL, I got the stern letter from eBay about selling off site but no action was taken.Sept 24-30 2017

When I received it I took it apart and found the motor was loose. Apparently the rubber motor mounts had deteriorated and fell apart during shipping.
A quick trip to Ace hardware for some rubber grommets and it’s fixed, I’ll still come out ahead but not quite the margin I had originally hoped for.Is it chaos if, like a messy desk you know where everything is but to an outsider it’s a world turned upside down?
