    Scot, in 9 months of selling, I've now switched from my seller account, to an ebay basic store. AND - I'm so excited to tell you this - I've now reached top seller status! Yes, I'm bragging, lol, cos when ebay notified me of this, I was thrilled! And I must say thank you! Because there were several times, after watching your videos, when I asked questions regarding things I still found confusing. You patiently answered each of my questions, lol, from one teacher to another (I teach people how to write their life story), and I thank you from the bottom of my heart! I'm now able to continue selling on ebay part-time to supplement my retirement, and I'm having a blast while doing so!

      This is amazing feedback. I appreciate it so much. You teach people how to write their life story? What an terrific thing to do. I meet people all the time that have convinced themselves that their story isn't interesting. Everyone's story is interesting, IMO. I may write my own down someday.

    Thank you, thank you, thank you. I’m a total newbie to selling. I’ve watched dozens of tutorials on “selling on eBay” but yours is the only one that demonstrated how to easily get my iPhone photos onto my listing. Avoiding having to connect my phone to my pc, finding the photos, copying them to a folder on the pc, and finally transferring them to my listing, is a real game changer. This will save me so much time. I am now subscribed and liking all of your tutorials.

    Scot, I wrote an outline, which I use when teaching my 2-hour workshop (which, by the way, I've taught for free, at libraries, churches, and a private academy.) Sometime this year - or as soon as I find time, between listings, lol - I'm planning to expand the outline, to make it into an actual book. When I do so, I'll send you and Melody (or is it Melanie?) a copy of my book. P.S. Yes, I've often had people tell me, "I don't know why I even came here; my life story is boring." I smile and ask them to trust that I know how to teach them. At the end of the 2 hours, they invariably say "I never realized my life was so interesting!" Lol.

      The following is an affiliate link. So, if you use it, I may earn a commission. It won't cost you more, but I want you to be aware. The box I use for mugs most is a 6x4x3. It won't fit large mugs, though. I only sell more expensive mugs, so I use this and then put that in a slightly larger box.

    Hi Scott! Thank you for this video and all of your videos! They are some of the most well-explained on UA-cam.
    I am struggling with inventory management in regards to taxes and bookkeeping. I see some sellers put literally every single object they buy into a spreadsheet, with where they got it, how much they paid, how much it sold for, shipping cost, etc, and that just seems like it would take SO MUCH TIME to keep organized, especially if many items are similar or am selling 15+ a day, or when buying items in large lots. It's also very difficult for me to do that kind of stuff with ADHD, which is why I got into reselling to begin with, to not spend all day in front of a screen.
    I see some sellers do a "no line-by'-line" approach, where they basically would go like "I spent $200 at this yard sale on 200 items" but not describe every single item in a spreadsheet, although I don't know if there are disadvantages to that approach come tax time. I would love to see a video by you some day on how you handle this kind of thing.
    Thank you again for all you do! :)

    • @TheChaChingKing
      @TheChaChingKing  4 місяці тому +2

      Man, I applaud the people that can manage an item by item inventory spreadsheet. THAT IS NOT ME! Keep in mind, I'm not a tax professional, so you need to talk to one before listening to someone like me. All I use is a cost-basis accounting. In other words, I keep track of what I spend on inventory....just totals. I do have a bank account dedicated to my business for this. So, if I buy inventory, boxes, tape...business stuff...it comes out of that account. It's the same account I use for my eBay and other business deposits, too. I keep track of some of my bigger purchases. But, I don't do any item by item accounting at all.
      I won't do a specific video for this simply because I don't want to give anyone the impression that I know enough about taxes to actually listen to. I will tell you that @notyourdadscpa is excellent. He knows the reselling world and is also a certified CPA. I truly believe every reseller who's doing this as a business needs to follow him here on UA-cam.

Do you use a software program to keep track of your expenses? Trying not to reinvent the wheel on what eBay provides on my account versus what I need to keep track of such as how much I paid for the item. Does the IRS allow taxes paid on the item purchased from thrift to be subtracted from the net amount earned? Thank you again for your videos and being a genuinely nice person.

Before starting again since I was a victim of them cancelling my account, because of fraud suspicions.I had a few questions.... I sell on Amazon and thought I would be consistent on the new platform but am lost as to how to get started. You mentioned posting as a store versus not. Which do you recommend and why? To select shipping for an item, how do you really go about it? On this video you mentioned the ground shipping option and in anothr video mentioned being mindful of flat shipping options? Is it an automatic deduction from the buyers payment? Can you please expand on this topic or provide a link to one of your videos if you have a more in depth one on shipping.

    • @TheChaChingKing
      @TheChaChingKing  4 місяці тому +1

      You really don't need a store until you are listing consistently. As far as shipping, I start with the weight and size of the item packed up. I use Ground Advantage most of the time. Eventually, the shipping payment will come from what the buyer paid. But until you are established, eBay may make you pay it up front. If you look through my videos, I have several shipping videos. Far too many to sum up in a few sentences

    Hey there. Enjoyed this tutorial. I have a question or 2 for you about international shipping. I have some countries that I have set up to not ship to. That was set up before EBay started the GPS program. Do you have any countries, etc. that you do not ship to? It sounds like now, since EBay takes care of everything for you after the initial shipment to their hub,that it would not be a problem with opening up to shipping to any and every area. What say you? Thanks so much.

      The only way I know of that you might be able to do this is with drop shipping. For example, if you sold custom designed products through a company like Printify, they would ship the products when they sell. So, you would need a US bank account to use for deposits, some ideas and designs that would sell on the Printify products and they would take care of the shipping. If you go that route, I'd also sell on Etsy. As far as someone who manages stock that you send them, it's not something I have any experience with.

    • @TheChaChingKing

      I think the key would be sorting out the shipping. I think things will be skewed for the US because shipping is cheaper when we are only shipping domestically. Still, some items may well be worth selling from there. You should search for other sellers in your area and see what they are doing.

    I want to start selling on eBay, but I am worried for something. Do I need LLC (or) business license before selling on eBay? Second thing is if I sell vero things that I don’t know, can I get sued from owners? If you see my comment, please reply me. Thanks.

    • @TheChaChingKing
      @TheChaChingKing  4 місяці тому +1

      I am not qualified to give tax advice. But, eBay doesn't require you to have an LLC in order to sell and you can still claim it as income for the IRS. As to the VeRO question, you could get sued for almost anything in any aspect of your life, including selling something on eBay. But, if you list something that gets a VeRO complaint, the item is usually just taken down. I would strongly recommend that, if a company contacts you directly telling you to take something down, take it off eBay. I'm absolutely not convinced they usually have the legal right to do so. But I am 100% convinced that I don't have the money to fight them...and they know it.

    I have to tell you as An American, I don't agree with that; "if someone leaves negative feedback i don't have to sell to them"- thats discrimination. That's not the American way AT ALL. I'm going to point something out that you taught me about listing. You said "take your time and do it right, because it's your business." Have you seen the listings on movies lately? I have been doing my homework and most re-sellers "oh I don't want to list." Don't you think people might have a legitimate reason for complaining?

      You've read far too much into what I said. What I said is that I block people who "...use feedback like a weapon." The VAST majority of buyers don't. They try to leave helpful feedback. If their feedback makes it obvious that they are going to be a problem, I have the right to block them. I also said to read what the negative was left for. If it is something that you know you haven't and wouldn't do, it's not an issue at all.
      If using feedback to determine whether or not I want to do business with someone isn't the American way, then a buyer shouldn't get to consider a seller's feedback when purchasing, right?
      I understand what you're saying. But I really did mean what I said, and I stand by it. If they use their feedback like a weapon, I don't want to do business with them.
