    Hey Jake how are you authenticating your AirPods before listing? I had a new package my friend had given me and I listed on eBay and it got taken down the next day. I had no idea that it was not authentic and either did my friend.

    I live in California and thrift store’s especially Goodwill price items at EBAY prices. I saw a pair of worn Hoka shoes for $38.99. I am so jealous watching sellers in other states. Jeans are either $15.99 or prices individually for higher. I need to come to Utah!

    ANYTHING is better than selling on Amzn FBA..Bezos n company have made it ridiculous to sell on that platform anymore..think Ebay's fees are bad??
    Used to sell media books and was HUGE into vitamins and supplements..six figure + seller at one point..buying gaylords of books media at a time and supplements as well..but with the increase in seller fees, storage fees, returns, race to the bottom on pricing, repricers, and constant battle to get and keep the "Buy Box" it wasnt worth the headaches..also new policies put in place regarding supplements where u needed documentation frm companies and other sources just to sell those items..real PITA!!
    Retired old fart now and just sell collectibles with a decent size 10K item and less store..passive income pretty much evry mth i can count on without much effort since i source mostly in bulk..

    Jrider. I get so confused bout algorithms. I have been reselling on EBay for about a month. I’ve only sold 4 things with 136$ and so discouraged. I have everything I need for shipping. But I was wondering do I need to buy or purchase for Ads? Help, please. I watch you videos daily and you sell so much , so fast and I’m so slow and wondering if I need to change type of items. Thank you, you are so awesome t all you share. I personally thank you so much. Gods Blessings to you!!

    Love the content, but I respectfully disagree. I sell used electronics and I make twice as much selling them on Amazon as I do selling them on eBay. I'm not worried about the race to the bottom because eBay IS the bottom. I source products on eBay to flip on Amazon. Plus Amazon has significantly more people shopping on it than eBay, and I don't have to take photos of my items like I do with eBay.

    • @michaeljames3918

      I agree. I am doing the same. I am finding all sorts of goodies on Ebay auctions online, and then picking up all those items at that thrift store's warehouse once every two weeks, to flip on Amazon. Easy money.

    Ebay has removed my selling limit as of mid March. I don't have a store. I have less than 100 items listed.
    Have they done it with everyone?
    I first signed up with Ebay in 1999.
    Just taken it more seriously the last 2-3 years as I was home healing from a bad car accident. I have 100% feedback. But only 238 as a seller.

    I know the title is meant to be clickbait, but honestly, there's no world in which Ebay is better than Amazon FBA, even with Amazon fees. Hell, with Ebay's Promoted Listings most sellers are matching, if not exceeding, Amazon fees at this point. Besides that, Ebay plays its role

    I think everybody has to realize that the reseller business as we know it is going to be closing down pretty soon. Why, because thrift stores are getting wise to how to use the same app we have to measure the price and they're not going to give things away anymore like they used to. And of course most other sellers will be also using the app. So where's the advantage?
    There will be no advantage😮

      Only true to a point, Goodwill still has $1.50 for the color of the week on Sundays. I picked up a 1960 Corning Tea Kettle for $1.50 and resold it for $140. The buys are there but my issue with eBay is the fees on fees on fees!
