VL: thanks for the info on the Iceland volcano, I did see that it had erupted again right after I posted about going there. I have my fingers crossed that the Blue Lagoon will be open when we’re there but we have chosen alternative thermal spots to soak in case the Blue Lagoon is closed again while we’re there.
20 new listings for me for the week ending June 2nd.
I made a plan to work more hours on my challenge box listings in June and I hope to see that come to fruition. I have been selling some of my challenge box items lately so that’s been a good motivator.
Wishing everyone a productive week!
20 new listings for me – now that we don’t have to post on Monday I keep forgetting to post! I’m doing better on getting my challenge box items listed – so I feel good about that.
VL: I’m glad to hear the Blue Lagoon is open! I was afraid the volcano eruption might have closed it down. I’m going to Iceland in July and that’s where we plan to go the minute we arrive.
Wishing everyone a great week!
20 new listings for me, 8 were from my lingering challenge boxes, I’m pleased about that.
We had house guests earlier this week, so I’m behind where I’d like to be on listing this week, but hopefully I’ll be able to make up the time.
Wishing everyone a productive week!
Sorry to hear that the visit from the toddler triple threat did a number on you Christine. Glad to hear you’re starting to feel better though.
20 new listings for me. I got a few challenge box items listed and sold last week and I’m hoping to get more of those items listed this week.
Wishing everyone a wonderful week!
Again I’m very shocked that 20 listings wins the week but I’ll take it! I guess with VL busy with other selling venues and Julie B unable to win due to winning last year I’m being helped out a lot – LOL.
20 new listings again for me last week. I am starting to delve into my challenge box backlog, finally. I’m pleased with how my 2 hours of work on eBay each weekday is starting to make a difference there.
Wishing everyone a productive week!
20 new listings for me last week. I totally forgot to report here, so thanks VL for reminding me.
I’ve started a new routine of 2 hours of eBay listing every weekday and at least 20 items listed per week. I’m hoping that will get me into listing more DP challenge items – I’ve not done very well at that this year.
Despite having two full DP challenge boxes still to list I pulled another box for May which looks interesting.
Wishing everyone a great week!
Wow, Julie! Very impressive work on your DPs! Good job!!!
I managed 16 listings last week. I’m hoping to get some DP challenge box listings up this week. Anticipating that I’ll be picking another box for May soon is making me realize I’ve got to get to work on my previous boxes ASAP.
Wishing everyone a great week!
11 new listings for me last week.
After Xcel turned our electricity back on last Monday we found out a close friend had died earlier that morning. His wife is disabled so that’s been a worry. My husband also has had a health issue – which thankfully has finally been diagnosed.
With losing all the food in our fridge/freezer, my spouse’s health issue, our friend’s death, his wife’s situation and the loss of time to be able to do much of anything with our power off it’s taken me a bit to get back into the swing of things. But I’m finally there and I have a new plan to get moving on eBay. Fingers crossed!
Wishing everyone a productive week!
20 new listings for me, two were from my Jan/Feb/March/April DP challenge boxes. I made a pact with myself that I’d list three items last week from my challenge boxes – but that agreement was made before Xcel shut off our power on Saturday afternoon.
Xcel Energy is now being sued over the 1,300 homes that burned a couple of years ago in my town. So due to high winds over the weekend they shut down power to a lot of my area as a precaution. The power just came back on this morning and now I’m working on cleaning up and throwing out all the spoiled and melted items in my refrigerator and freezer.
I did manage to sort out a few boxes of unlisted inventory so I also have a bag of items to donate. I used the time without power to dig through boxes with a headlamp on, so I guess that was the silver lining of not having electricity.
Wishing everyone a great week!
For the last week of March I managed 19 new listings. To reach my 20 “dealt with” goal I purged one loser from my listed inventory. As I continue to approach 1,000 listings this is a good strategy for me – I don’t want to pay any additional listing fees on top of my store fees.
Despite being woefully behind in my first three challenge boxes for 2024 I pulled my April box. And it’s insane. I must be a natural magician to be able to fit that many items in one box. Sigh.
Wishing everyone a great listing week!
3 new listings for me, ouch. And nothing listed from my DP challenge box last week.
I decided that if I don’t list a total of 20 items in a week I have to donate/throw out enough to make it to 20 items total. So I did get rid of another 17 items last week. Even though I’m falling down on the job of listing my DP challenge items I’m still getting DP items out the door and there’s some solace in that.
Wishing everyone a great week!
I managed 20 new listings last week. And hurrah, one listing was from my Jan/Feb DP challenge box! I also sold another DP challenge listing last week – for $5. I really have to be more discerning about what to list and what to donate. It’s totally not worth my time to list anything that ends up selling for so little.
My hubs and I just got back from Santa Fe last night. It was a wonderful, jam packed short vacation. I’m hoping to be at home and in listing mode for a while now, my DP is patiently waiting. Julie B, thanks for the inspiration on tackling your March DP – I’m going to grab a couple of items from my lingering challenge boxes to photograph right now.
Wishing everyone a productive listing week!
20 new listings for me for the week ending March 10th.
It was a super busy social obligations week for me and I found it a struggle to list even my easiest non-DP items. I’m starting to think I’ll never actually finish a DP box. But at least knowing the DP challenge is hanging over my head has kept me from sourcing much – so at least there’s that!
I’m headed out of town again on Friday so I’ve blocked out today and tomorrow with no plans other than listing. I hope to get 20 items from my languishing unlisted inventory up this week. Fingers crossed that some of those listings are actually from my DP challenge boxes!
Wishing everyone a great week!
Good luck with the shop hop stops, Amatino. Have a wonderful time, it sounds like lots of fun!
20 new listings for me this week, which was difficult after returning home from vacation on Tuesday night. I was either too tired or too busy to list anything at all until this weekend. Zero DP challenge box listings for me this week, I had to find the fastest to list items I could in order to make my weekly listing goal.
Vacation was a blast and when I returned I went to the BIFF (Boulder International Film Festival). Now I need to buckle down and get back to listing DP challenge items before I go out of town again. Fingers crossed.
Wishing everyone a productive week!
20 listings for me during the last full listing week in February. I was only able to list from M-W last week – I was on vacation from last Thursday until last night. My vacation was wonderful – it’s hard to be back to RL!
I sold a couple more items from what I did manage to list from my January and February DP challenge boxes, but I still haven’t listed everything from either of those boxes. So those items will roll over into my March box. I did a blind pick for my March box already and did the inventory list on it. I got very lucky because it happens to be a box with a smaller amount of large sized items. Hopefully that will help me to catch up with my DP listings in March.
Wishing everyone luck with their March boxes this week!
