Just wanted to thank you all for your help and input here. I decided to just let the offers sit for the night and was going to send counters per Jay’s suggestion this morning. But by last night one buyer who had inquired and made an offer earlier had moved from his 70% offer to just hitting my ask and paying immediately with shipping instructions.

Soooo…this leads me to believe I was probably on the low side with my price, but it’s also really hard to be upset with a 3200% profit in less than 48 hours. I’ll chalk it up to a good learning experience and the fact that after a few hours of research I’ve now got some basic knowledge around a subject area I knew nothing about just a few days ago.

Thanks again all!

Thanks Ryanne. That’s about what I had figured, but thought I’d ask anyway in case I was missing something.

I just wanted to thank you guys for this thread because it actually got me looking at some of the printers you all recommended. So when I walked into a Goodwill yesterday and stumbled upon the Dymo 450 in original box with all cables, software and starter rolls for $18, I couldn’t buy it fast enough. I haven’t had a chance to play with it yet, but based on the way it looks I would guess someone loaded a roll of paper, used it a few times and decided it wasn’t worth the hassle and donated it. Pretty psyched to fiddle with it this weekend in hopes of starting to crank out labels for next week’s shipping.

Huge thanks Scavenger Life community!

Hi all, I’ve been away a few days, but I just want to thank you all for weighing in with some really fantastic things for me to think about. I wasn’t sure what to expect posting for the first time here, but damn…you all are awesome!

And big shout out to Mike for all the great information in that post! Lots to absorb and look to implement as I try to grow.

Thanks again everyone-W

Thanks Jay. You’re 100% right. And intellectually I think I was there, but sometimes it’s hard to let go of the piece that makes you just want set up shop in principle land. 🙂

Thanks for all you do!

Thanks Sharyn. FWIW, I didn’t actually get a notification when you responded to this, I jsut saw it when I came back to the forums this morning. Maybe I have a setting amiss somewhere.

At any rate, thanks again for the welcome!
