I have the same goals for my shop going into the new year. Thank yall for inspiring me and showing what can be done. My husband doesn’t help me with my business but I’m hoping one day he can. I’d love to be fortunate enough to bring in enough money on my own to help him quit his job. I also started homeschooling my son this year also. Merry Christmas to your family from mine!
The shirt store is still fun lol we need to know what sells and good to see the process of raising your average sale price, seasonality of your finds, etc. 🙏🏾
My kids and grandkids shop my eBay store as well. They go look at my store and then come over and pick through. I do inventory the same way you do. I miss my insurance from the American Healthcare act. When you turn 65 you have to go on Medicare. It just went up again sadly. I'm blessed to have eBay as a supplement to my retirement. I live in a very isolated area of Wyoming but have been able to find lots of inventory on my trips to the Goodwills and other little thrift stores within 200 miles of me as well as buying lots on eBay. Keep up the good work, you look great!
We have some Wyoming friends who drive all the way into Denver for their sourcing. It can totally be done! Just takes a bit of planning, great job! And thank you :)
Congratulations on being monetized! Although, I have to wonder if you got a strike for the music. You bring up a few good points, both directly and indirectly. First, changes should only be made one at a time to see what does and doesn't work. Second, you and Kyle have a great dynamic in that each of you are strong where the other is weak in the business aspect. Makes for a balanced relationship. Third, each person or couple in the business has to do whatever works best for each situation. If you only have a garage or spare room to work out of, then niching down would be a necessity. Whereas I have some old out buildings and an acre and a half to play with, and it will be supplemental income. So my dynamic or business model will be different. I can play around with what I like to do instead of focusing on higher profit margins, whereas others need the higher profit margins to survive.
Hi Carrie I really love your's and kyles channel 😊 I've been wanting to open an eBay store of my own but can't really do too much sourcing where I'm from... Anyway I hope your channel continues to grow and prosper and hope you and your family have a Merry Christmas 🎄
We just sell on ebay. It’s easier for us to give one platform 100% of our effort and attention. Plus ebay has the most buyers over all the others combined.
Sorry, but I forgot to ask if you have a shipping video for your pants / shirts. How you ship, which company do you use (usps, ups, ect), ground advantage or priority envelope?, and any other info you feel impertinent. Thank you
I love how successful you are on eBay. I think starting out the new year, I’m going to convert to just eBay too. It’s a hassle having to crosslist and remembering to remove solds from other platforms. Plus the cost of the cross posting app and the annoyance of Poshmark’s system of sharing. Thank you for showing that you can be successful on just eBay and by concentrating on specific groups of clothes. Your videos and advice are much appreciated.
I would not bring those clothes right in the house like that....one bed bug will cost you 1000's Not to mention a hidden roach.....they may look clean people have those things too....mine go right into washer then I go threw them....not trying to scare you but one of the good wills in my area had an outbreak of bed bugs....thank goodness I don't go there but the thought made me change my mind real quick about how I do things.
Yes, there are two stores! One for the shirts and one for jeans (for data purposes only). I don’t link to my jeans store though. That way I can keep nonorganic traffic off of it
💥 💥 💥 maaaaaan if you guys have a relationship where one likes to source and the other list, that's a gold mine!
That Bulls tee was 🔥!
It was awesome meeting you while sourcing Kyle, thanks for the veggie tales figs yesterday, have a great Christmas! -Tom

I'm about to hit my 3rd trimester and totally relate with the out of breath and starving constantly lol still better than nausea though!
It’s true 😂 I tried my absolute hardest to not barf during first trimester.

I used free non-licensed music :)

Doing a small store for some extra money may be a good fit for you! That way you only do a couple thrifting stops for the month and you're good :D
I love your kitty!
Thanks!
this is random but it looks like neil has your name as "Carie" in his phone LOL
Love your videos. I was wondering if you sell on any other platforms? If yes or no, your reasons. Thank you.
We just sell on ebay. It’s easier for us to give one platform 100% of our effort and attention. Plus ebay has the most buyers over all the others combined.

@ I ship through usps on ebays site and use ground advantage. I don’t have a designated video for it though

Not yet! I’ve got them stored away, ready for Christmas Eve :)
Do u wash before u ship. i leave my clothes outside to wash i seen to many bedbugs on them😮
God’s Blessings to All. A slang name your shirt store could be called “Garms”- Pickers Sale
Ooo Texas Roadhouse. I love their bread and butter. 🤤
Yessss they do it so well!
I would not bring those clothes right in the house like that....one bed bug will cost you 1000's

Oh man, yea that's something I haven't thought about before. Thanks for the heads up!
Yeah I'd run everything through at least a very hot cycle of the clothes drier . Just a thought!
Thanks for the videos! I agree with Carrie on the 'nog. lol Merry Christmas!!!
Merry Christmas!
Are there sizes that Sell better than others? Thinking maybe more Medium to Big will Sell better? But idk that’s why I am asking :)
Yea the more average sizes will sell better than the other sizes that only fit a small portion of people :)
@ okay 👌🏻 thanks a lot!
hi Carrie! what is the name of your ebay store where you sell jeans? do you have two stores?
Yes, there are two stores! One for the shirts and one for jeans (for data purposes only). I don’t link to my jeans store though. That way I can keep nonorganic traffic off of it
