Thanks Jay! Do you know if there is a report I can run on eBay to find out how much I paid eBay?
Thanks Amatino for thinking up a great February challenge! Even I didn’t want to do the one I had on the back burner – you saved us all!
Thanks for the endorsement of the monthly bonus challenge Amatino!
For anybody who cares to participate this is a great way to boost your points totals without having to compete with unbeatable listing machine Libby – go, Libby go – you are an inspiration to us all!
Utahbill, I’m calling you out here – you said you would “turn it around and do better” so here’s your chance.
Also, who wants to come up with an idea for the next challenge? If no one volunteers I’ll post my next challenge idea, but heads up – you probably won’t love it, it involves a lot of time consuming work…
Congratulations on the shed delivery Amatino. So awesome that it matches the other shed so perfectly! You will be a listing monster once you get the inside finished and all your eBay stuff moved in.
40 for me. I met my January listing goal so I’m feeling good about finishing at least 1/12th of my year on target.
It seems to be working for me to go slow and steady and just stick with my daily quota. If I’m feeling ambitious after I meet my listing goal for the day I work on drafts to use in the future (instead of listing more than my quota that day). Having nearly completed drafts has saved me quite a few times when I have a really busy day and don’t have time to list my daily quota from scratch.
Now if I can just keep it up for the next 11 months!
Oops!!! I’m glad you are amused and not offended, I’m so sorry!
Now that I do more than quickly glance at the photo I see that I totally missed your girlish figure. I was concentrating on the binnacle and I think having your hair pulled back without seeing the henna color totally threw me off, because I know your hair is very long. Park Ranger: yes perhaps, but man – NO.
Lately I’ve been listening to the “Up and Vanished” podcast. I’m a mystery lover and this fits the bill.
That is an awesome piece! Thanks for the photo. Is that your hubby in the picture giving us perspective on the binnacle size?
Just to let you know Amatino, I was thinking one huge item out by the end of February. You really are game!
Thank you for accepting the challenge junque redux – I love your moniker!
Oh BTW Amatino (since I’m avoiding working on my taxes by lurking around the forum) I’ll add that if you don’t want to ship the whole chandelier you could take the crystals off and just sell those. I saw that Lavender Clothesline on YouTube had good results doing that.
Ummm, no photos of the angel. One of the reasons I never listed it! But you are welcome to come visit me in Colorado anytime, friend! BUT you’ll probably be pretty busy in the near future trying to unload all your huge pieces – ROFLMAO! Geez Amatino, a full size binnacle?
And if that’s not enough for you, we’ll be doubling up on “extra” challenges in February to get caught up. Who wants to volunteer to come up with a challenge for February to be posted on February 1st? February will run concurrently with my January challenge.
Hurrah Sharyn! Thanks for playing!
Thanks Amatino, I can always count on you, you’ve got game! Since you and I (at least) are in, here’s the January “extra” challenge – due to the late start we will have until the last day of February to accomplish it: Get rid of one LARGE item that has to do with your eBay business.
The way you get rid of it is your choice: donate, sell on eBay, sell locally, throw away, whatever. But if you decide to sell the item it has to be sold and gone from your premises by February 29th.
The item could be something large you bought to sell but never did OR something you thought would be a good storage solution for your business that didn’t work out. Anything goes (no pun intended), as long as it is large and was intended to be used somehow for your eBay business.
My albatross is a huge mechanical vintage angel figurine that I bought years ago to sell. I did finally find a box to ship it in but I’ve never done anything more than find the box. I just don’t want to mess with it, it’s huge! Especially to a seller who mostly sells sewing patterns and craft stuff. So even though it would have brought a good ROI, I’ll donate it before 2/29.
Hello Fellow Challengers!
I’m proposing an additional monthly challenge if anyone is interested. Amatino has thrown down some extra challenges in past years like donate one item per day for a month to clean up your death pile.
I was thinking that anyone interested in participating in this could pick a month and make up the challenge for that month. It’s fun and it gets each of us to accomplish things we normally wouldn’t, which feels really good! I have a simple challenge that wouldn’t take much time to accomplish for January if anyone is on board.
Amatino, our fearless leader, are you in? (Remember how good you felt about that death pile clean up!) Anyone else up for this?
I’m suddenly getting messages for declines on offers I sent out also. I didn’t do anything to my settings. It seems that eBay just changed something and now I’m getting decline notifications. I don’t particularly care for this new feature. If there is a way to turn this off I’d love to know about it!
