My wife and I have decided for the near future and probably forever to get out as sellers on eBay. Pulled 1400 items. It was getting to be too much like work and I quit that 13 years ago when I retired from Ford. We are gonna do what we like best... metal detect and drink beer( well I drink beer not Gloria). All eBays stupid policies made getting out an easy choice. I will continue to look at this site along with the Garage Sale site as often as I can. Have learned quite a bit on these two sites. Garage sales are in our blood, but now looking for stuff for ourselves rather than to resell.

Excellent! Good for you! I hope you are able to enjoy yourselves by treasure hunting and not running a business.

Good for you! Enjoy it!

But what are you going to do when you go to a yard sale and see an item worth $100 with a 25 cent sticker on it?

Enjoy your retirement. You worked for it. I would not even want to handle 1400 listings myself. At least you left in good standing, you can still return if you ever feel the urge or need.

You'll start buying for yourselves and before you know it.... :laughing7:
