    Your positivity is infectious. I dove head first into reselling about 18 months ago and completely burned myself out in a couple of weeks, but this video is giving me inspiration to try again. I struggle with an 'all or nothing' mindset, this video is a good reminder to take things one step at a time, consistent and incremental improvement is the way to go!

      I did the same! I was a machine last year from January until August. In August we went on vacation and when I came back I just couldn't get back in it. I continued to sell but didn't list much at all. Then I went back to work for a friend for the rest of the year. I still shipped daily but my store dropped from 800+ items down to 409. Going back to work for the same friend until June so that during the summer I can regroup and finally decide on a niche. It's been a crazy ride.

    I am so excited to continue to follow your journey. I started reselling full time about the same time, and to scale up, decided to work for a company to build and run their online sales, selling items considered not ideal for their discount brick and mortar stores. In one year, and with 2 people, I brought in over half a million for the company, in May of that year, we brought in clothing and sold $120k just in 7 months on Poshmark . It was amazing. But alas, after building them a firm foundation, I was no longer needed. I sold off all my inventory to work for them so I'm starting from scratch again, but so excited to know what I am capable of. So thank so for sharing your wins and misses. Your journey is inspiring and the information you provide is worth its weight in gold!

    I loved this. My box of choice is recycled“Spindrift” boxes from Costco. They are just the right width and length for shirts and pants. I saved 9 of them from last summer, but now the company changed the dimensions. Sam’s club “Siete” chip boxes work well for my other items (dvds and books) because they are wide and short, so I can see most things without pulling the box off of the shelf. I also trim the flaps so that I can easily slide the items in and out of the box without it getting stuck. Thanks again for your honest videos.

    When I started my ebay out of my apartment I was only moving small items. Knives, lighters, baseball cards things like that. Then it evolved when my girlfriend moved in with me. She has a great eye for ceramics and glass. In between all of it I got a taste of dropshipping. We have a storage unit at which I have decided to liquidate this summer. After that I'm either going back to dropshipping or to my original rule of selling which is selling nothing breakable and nothing bigger than my hand.

      @@ChrisBcards I ship ANYTHING that can make me money. If it's bigger it has to be worth my time and effort to ship because of additional packaging and materials. I've shipped vintage typewriters, old springy Wonder Horses with the frame, and even marble chess sets. My main bread and butter is clothing and shoes but my motto is to not ever get discouraged by the size, only get discouraged by the profit potential. And if you do ship heavy or odd sized items make sure you ship via a cheaper service like UPS Ground. I see too many times people ship 20 pound items via USPS Priority Mail that costs them $50. Be smart and charge your buyer accordingly. Hope this helps!
