Nice! Video games are great, just sold a nice Super Nintendo lot and it did very well. Keep your eyes peeled for any new and vintage video game.

NOPE! you never get used to feeBay. they are constantly changing rules and fees. But no matter what they do they always says it is for the betterment of the sellers. Like I have said in the past, fleeBay is probably run by retired politicians.

Congrats on your first sale/s. Yeah, you'll have to wait for your money from paypal too right? 10 items a month for 3 months now for new sellers huh? Nice incentive. I guess they figure they have all the sellers they need. If I was just starting out on eBay, I would probably get tired and quit within the first month after jumping through all their hoops. What a joke it is becoming.

It becomes a addiction. When you buy a item for $1 and it sells for $50 it gets you. They do fee you pretty heavy Im pretty sure 16 percent combined. You won't make a living doing it but it helps with that extra cash on top of a job. When I started in 2013 it was 10 sales for 3 months and 2 week wait on money. Lol that's why I only sold higher dollar items, $50 and up. If your serious about doing it research reasearch reasearch items, just type in a keyword then select sold and put in a minimum price. Write the items down your likely to see in your area. Anything that has vintage on the tag or company name is NOT vintage more then likely last 3 years. Well good luck.

That goes for the word "collectible" too.

Also, if i pick something up that looks old and I see a barcode I can't put it down fast enough.

goes for zip codes too.
