Now that's an awesome month! Was it mostly toys?

 

[Bassmaster96]

Yeah, Palidin, was that mostly toys? That is a good month indeed. Diesel Ram, 4 of them were lures, and 1 was an antique fish skinner. That's not my first time shipping 5 out, but it doesn't happen much at all. I wish it would happen more often. Don't worry, your time is coming. I was also running over 100 listings when I sold those this weekend. I can't imagine selling 50 in a day. If you'll look sometimes in the listings, you'll see a whole bunch with the same background. I clicked on one once and the guy had over 1000 listings. I checked his sold items, and he had sold 50+ the day before, all antique stuff that I would bet he got at auctions/yardsales. That would be a full time job.

I have been upgraded to a power seller. Anyone else one? It says on my projected seller page that I will probably be a top rated seller on my next check (August 20). Wow, I didn't know you could become a top rated seller with less that 150 feedback. I figure there is a catch. Anyone else get that?

6 video game listings, 2 NIB board games, 12 toy listings, 5 jewelry listings.... I am trying to get more video games because the BINs are free! HH

 

[Bassmaster96]

Were they mostly BIN's?

 

[Bassmaster96]

See you guys Thursday, I'm heading to the lake.

 

[palidin20603]

Mostly best offers some auctions to clear out some jewelry for a small profit

Sold a shotglass and a pin this morning and a shirt and a hat yesterday-- now up to 29 sales for July!

I also have 8 half started listings, so should be a good evening to finish them up.

 

[palidin20603]

Listed 1 item. Sales up to 27 now. Had a .99 cent auction sell for .99 plus shipping. Need to keep it going to get to 30 sales this month! HH

Patting myself on my back! I am up to 44 live auctions. Two have bids. A bunch of them are super old. But this morning I only had 28 up, so I've been busy. I've got a ton of pictures taken, so I can get more auctions ready.

Now if I make a few sales I can justify trying to get another jar ....

(oh yeah. I just saw I have 4 scheduled to list in a couple of weeks. I'm giving those items a break. Who knows. Maybe it will help.)

8 new ones listed last night... pretty productive

 

[kali_is_my_copilot]

Listed 11 BINs today, all silver or gold pieces, total value $580 (nudging prices down to move things, if necessary, should still bring in well over 500). Sold a sterling pin immediately, bringing me to nine sales/$278 for the month. Have a few more things to list, and some bulk junk jewelry auctions, but nearing the end of my jewelry inventory (don't even get me started on all the small $5-20 non-jewelry stuff I have piling up, someday....). I'm hoping to do some buying Fri-Sun, haven't gotten to do enough of the fun part of things for the last little while. It seems like when I have the time I don't have the money & vice versa.

 

[kali_is_my_copilot]

Listed three more BINs with one more plus my auctions on deck! Just need to fill in some info I don't have on hand since I'm at work (slow night lol) and they'll be off to the races.

 

[Bassmaster96]

So on the draft section on the all selling page, can you start several listings and then finish them later? I thought it deleted them when you started a new one.

Listed another bunch of betamax tapes this week, those of the adult variety. I am still selling stuff from a massive estate sale a month ago. I have even more stuff but am running out of free listings. I am getting a backlog of items. Also I am blowing out a lot of dead stock. Anything that doesn't sell at .99 cents goes into the garage sale bins.

 

[kali_is_my_copilot]

Yup Bassmaster I do that a lot. It's convenient because I can start listings on my phone when I have downtime at my day job, or at home where the internet is terrible. I do everything but pictures and then go to my "super-fancy" "ebay office" and use my lighting setup there to take all the pictures for all of my drafts.

It saves them for about a month. I've had as many as 9 or 10 in there. very useful!

I love it when I buy something that I have a good feeling about and it turns out to be better than I thought.

I'll admit neither are huge scores, but a Tommy Hilfiger T-shirt that says 'freedom'. Paid 2.69, sold for $30 a few weeks ago.

What made me post this is I started a draft for a Boston College Jersey. In researching, turns out it is Doug Fluties's number (NFL) when he went there, and the few listings I found of the same brand were all $40+ I paid $4.49 for it. I'll be listing it soon. Not a bad flip for 15-20 minutes of total time

 

[Bassmaster96]

Very nice guys! I'll have to use that draft option, that will be helpful!

Listed 7 tonight, sold 1 today.
