I watched this video three weeks ago, and since then I have made almost $600 on ebay! I would have never had the confidence to try if I hadn't found this. Thank you for your Teacher's Heart!
What! $600! WAY. TO. GO. That is an amazing testimony to your hard work
I know isn't this amazing!! He's really thorough. Congratulations btw!
giving me encouragement,,,,,thx
In a week or day ?
600$, the magic number for the IRS to come a'knockin
I actually made close to 600 this week and I just started listing on eBay I’m not an average seller I sell things that I find for deals and flip… John Deere chainsaw runs.. sold for 200 tonight paid $20 antique in box cast toy tractor paid 30 sold for 120 it’s crazy I sold duck stamp prints paid $6 for 8 at a sale sold for 20-40 each this week😊
You're killing it!!! Good for you
You are so helpful, cheerful, realistic, optimistic, cautionary, encouraging, informative, methodical, clear, careful, thorough, inspirational - and all at the same time - like most great & effective educator guides strive to be. Thank you so much for this!
Thank you very much. I truly appreciate it. Hearing that the videos are helpful and encouraging is about the best I could hope for.
I agree 1000%. Love this guy’
They certainly are helpful. Shipping is as confusing as the new math they try to teach kids lol
@@e.agoraphobicdickinsonpoet660 Don't get me started on 'New Math'; I had to teach the kids I tutor "Old Math" so they could finally understand & answer the questions on their exams ; )
So thankful for your videos! ❤
Really appreciate you. this video helped me 110% to listing items on eBay. you are so great informer. thank you. GOD BLESS YOU.
That is terrific to hear! I genuinely want the videos to be helpful
Thank you so much for explaining so well in this video.
Thank you so much!! These videos are so helpful and easy to understand!! I appreciate your enthusiasm and interest in seeing others succeed!
Such fantastic feedback! Thank you. I'm really hoping that my videos keep improving to the point that they become truly helpful. Your comment is exactly what I'm hoping for.
I looked everywhere & I found your tutorial the best so thank u.
Hi praise indeed! Thank you so much
Thank you for all of your useful information and your encouragement.
You are so welcome! I'm really hoping to do both of the things you've mentioned.
This was helpful and just finished the 10 things I wish I knew before video! I just need to downsize and sell a bunch of clothes and fitness items and your videos give me the confidence to know where to start. Thank you, earth angel!😇
In all my life, I don't believe I've ever been called, earth angel. That's a lot to live up to and really humbling. Thank you.
Great tutorial! Many thanks.
Thank you so much for taking your time to explain clearly step by step. I’m excited to watch the rest of your videos and to give eBay a try.
You CAN do this! You can and I hope my videos are helpful.
@@TheChaChingKing You already have helped:)$
Hi! I just subscribed. I loved how you took the time to explain everything so well.
Thanks so much!
Very helpful. Took the fear out of online selling. Makes it so simple. Thanks to you.
Very kind. Thank you so much
Great information! Thanks so much for sharing 💜
Thanks for watching!
Thank you for providing a walk through that was informative, easy to understand, and removes some of the intimidation of posting a first listing. I'm looking to get into selling to downsize things I've collected over the years, and was looking for a tutorial to cover the basics of an initial listing. This tutorial fits the bill.
I really appreciate that. I've got a lot of tutorials for beginning ebay sellers.
VERY helpful. You rock!! I was reselling back in 2018 and had some good success. Then life kinda got in the way. But I am going to go at it again. I will enjoy watching all of your videos. Thank you for your kind heart 🙂
I hope you puck right up where you left off. You've got this!
Thanks for the help.....very good teacher.....
Thanks so much for this great, concise, clear video. I have some things ready to list on ebay and I felt silly being nervous to start listing things, but after watching this, I'm going to go ahead and get some items listed right away. Thanks for giving me the confidence to get started!
It's not silly at all. It's completely foreign. But experience will help you tackle that nervousness. You've got this!
I'm a new seller. Thank you for this valuable information. You explain it so well. Love your channel.
I really appreciate the comment. I am still learning myself and hope to create videos that are genuinely helpful. Thank you so much!
Thank you so much I really do appreciate what you’re doing I’m new to selling I’ve sold a few items and I have way under sold myself I even cried at one of them lol but thank you so much. I’m going to have my husband watch this I’m hoping he gets as excited as I do.
Don't beat yourself up if you make a mistake or two along the way. Grant yourself the same level of grace you would someone else who was learning to do something. You deserve no less.
Thank you SO much for the kind words. I genuinely appreciate them.
This was unbelievably helpful thank you so much ❤
Glad it was helpful!
Thank you so much for this video. You really are so cheerful and encouraging. I’ve always felt daunted about selling an item on eBay (a dress), but I feel encouraged to do it and like it’s actually do-able thanks to you. Thank you! 🙏🏽 I think I’ve found the person who can help me on my eBay journey! 😃
I hope to encourage people, so I truly appreciate this message
Awww, that’s wonderful! Thank you for your reply! 😃
Thank you so so so much for such a great, helpful tutorial! I'm just getting started selling. Really appreciate the tips! Subscribed and will be watching a lot of your vids!
You got this! Like a lot of things, you get better with experience. But nothing I'm doing is beyond the reach of most.
Thank you for taking the time to go step by step! Just sold my first item on eBay and it's all due to your instruction AND enthusiasm!!
Look at you!!! YOU get all the credit. Tons of people watch the video and don't move forward. Congrats on your first sale of many!
Thank you 😊 Nice and simple to follow 👍🏻
Thanks so much!
Thanks so much for taking the time! I’ve been reselling on other platforms but new to eBay and you’re a pleasure to watch! Mainly Bc you make the points and have a great demeanor! Ty again.
I truly appreciate that.
Great info! Much appreciated!
Thanks!
You are a great teacher!! Thank you so much!!
I truly appreciate you. Thank you
Thanks Scott. I'm just getting started as an eBay re-seller. Your videos have greatly helped me!! Thanks Again
That's what I'm hoping to be able to do. Thank you so much for the kind words.
This Seller has everything explained, thank you ChaChingKing, you are truly appreciated.
I really appreciate you. I'm still working hard to get better at sharing information. I'm super glad to hear I'm on the right track
Extremely helpful! Thanks much.
I'm glad you're finding them helpful!
Easy to understand Thanks
This video has been very helpful in establishing and stocking my ebay store. I have been hesitant to step into the resale market, but your video has shown me that is it's as daunting as I thought. Thank you for taking the time to teach us.
You just work it one step at a time. You've got this
This is the 2nd video I have watched of yours. Thank you for doing these. I am sure if I look through your comments this is not the 1st one telling you how much this helped me. So much so I felt that I needed to say thank you! lol
Thank you very much. I am editing an update to this video right now. The platform has had some changes I really needed to include. Your feedback helps me so much. Thank you
Thank you for your videos. Very helpful!!! By the way, I love your name & logo. Awesome job! :)
You are fully awesome. Thank you!
Thank you for doing this, I needed it
One of the goals of this channel is to provide as much hope as it does help. So, your comment is truly encouraging.
You have SUCH A POSITIVE ATTITUDE, DOWN TO EARTH AND SO FRIENDLY!! Thank you and God bless. Picked up some pointers I didn't realize I did not know about!!! Blessings
If my videos were to ever become overwhelmingly negative, I won't make them anymore. If I can't lift people up, there's no point.
@@TheChaChingKing I need your help again! Thank you for your response. I am following your steps. For some reason when I go to list the first thing that comes up is: What are you selling and then add photos. I NEVER SEE the custom sku words, never. Help. What am I doing wrong? thank you.
Is there a way to speak to you privately?
Thank you, thank you. I've watched several videos, and yours was just what I needed. I would be interested in seeing how you mail odd shaped items. Something a little harder than a t-shirt, like a mug or anything that requires use of the S-M-L boxes. Once again, thank you!!!
When I put together another shipping video, I'll make sure to include some of the odd stuff. Like today. I had to ship a piece of artwork. Great idea for a future video!
Great information, good work my friend. I never use that prefill anyway, it takes away from my description I think because it always adds so much information.
You're completely correct.
I just referred someone to your channel to learn
You're fully awesome
Thank you so much for this detailed guide to listing. I have inherited hundreds of books and want to sell them on ebay. I was quite daunted by the process of listing on ebay, not sure how to go about it start to finish, but you have given me the confidence to "give it a go". I am so grateful for your clear instructions and positive approach. Thank you again, great stuff!
You can do this! It takes time, effort and experience. But it can be done
Thanks for a good one, informative n helpful one really. I will try out my first listing tomorrow. 👍 Cheers.
Awesome! Good for you. It takes some work and time to start seeing sales. Be patient. YOU'VE GOT THIS!
I'm excited to start my eBay journey. Thanks for your videos I really appreciate your teaching style
I hope you find these helpful. :-)
Thanks you so much for this valuable information.
Thank you! I want the videos to be helpful.
I appreciate your help!!
Happy to help!
You’re a really great teacher.
I truly appreciate that.
Thank you very helpful...Thinking about starting ebay soon
You can do it!
As a new seller on eBay never new how to put on as variation items .I sell cd’s and this video help me lots my next goal is to sell for first time t shirts great explaining video thank you.
I hope you are wildly successful!
Thank you so much! New subscriber here. I have been putting items on the side that I want to sell and I have just been waiting to get some knowledge. Well, thank you for the knowledge, now I can begin with some confidence. I have also watched your shipping video and I am sure I will go through the rest of your videos,😊 as I am just starting out. Once again thank you.😊
The best teacher is experience. Once you get started you'll have better questions. One piece of advice. Allow yourself the same grace and latitude you'd afford someone else who is just learning how to do something. It's ok to learn from mistakes.
I love your videos and they really have helped me and my sister launch our new business❤🎉
I'm so excited for you both!
Thank you! I’m a new subscriber from NYC.
Awesome! Thank you!
That’s a very informative video! Thank you as I’m getting ready to open an eBay account soon. I’m already on Poshmark and Mercari and want to diversify more. I don’t have a lot of items listed but hope to as time allows and hoping I have better results on eBay than the other two. Most of my items at this point are not clothing.
With the experience you already have, you'll do amazing!
Thank you so much for this channel! I just started on eBay and these videos are so helpful!
You are so welcome! I genuinely want these videos to be helpful to people. :-)
I love the simple step by step info and im going to watch this again to make sure i get it .Im just about ready to start ebay. Thanks ChaChing King.
You can do this. Move at a pace that works for you. Take your time. Don't worry about how fast you can lust right now. Just like driving...you don't need to worry about merging onto the Dallas mix master on your first time behind the wheel. Things will get easier with practice
Have you sold anything on eBay yet?!? Curious here
@@TheChaChingKing Move at our own pace? Isn't there a requirement of $1,000 sales per year?
@@sarahturps1384 Where did you hear about $1,000 sales requirement?? I've never heard of any such thing.
i love the step by step for beginners
Thank you!!!
Thank you so much for the information. I am just starting out today.
It’s a little confusing but ill watch it a few times and get it.
If I have any questions I will ask you when I get started. Again thank you!
I'll try and help if I can. Don't forget, it's OK if things don't go perfectly. Allow yourself the same kind of grace that you would someone else. You can do this!
Thank you. Really helpful.
Thanks! That's what I want to hear.
Thank you! Still looking forward to a shipping video.
Upcoming SOON! I'm just waiting on a day that we ship a wide variety of stuff.
I watched this video one month ago and got busy on the plan. It consumed me with a full time job. I sold $250 my first few days. From there it went nuts. I was trying to do this in my house and quickly I saw that won't work. I have stopped listed until my new building arrives. I am still doing my listings just saving them until I'm ready for a real opening. Thank you for your guidance. I would still be procrastinating without this video. Keep doing the good work
It can take over your house QUICKLY! Ask me how I know that. 😆
Congrats on getting started! The first listing is the hardest
@@TheChaChingKing
How do you know that? Lol
Hi Scott. Thank you very much for your videos and content. Even allowing for a few differences between US and UK I learn so much from watching you. I have sold around 30 items of my own stuff so far. I hope I can progress to finding more items specifically for resale. Keep up the good work.
Cliff
I am super excited that you are here. I'm always amazed at how many viewers I have from the UK. I'd LOVE to do some thrifting in the UK.
I have really enjoyed the video, gave me a lot of helpful info.
Glad it was helpful!
Great info! I would add “big logo” or “graphic” to the listing. And I always end it with condition, such as “New”, “EUC”, etc. 🇨🇦
Great tips! I really appreciate you watching and taking the time to post some additional help. :-)
thank you so much for this video!!!
I hope it's helpful!
Very helpful! Thanks!
I'm glad to hear that! 😊
Brilliant video thank you very much for sharing
I hope some of it is helpful!
Thank you for the video. I learned alot. Still a little confused about shipping policies - if I even need them but really want to know when to select flat rate vs. calculated shipping and how to set that up.
You choose how you want to ship each item. You don't need to write a complicated policy. When you list each item you just select how to handle that one item. Does that make sense?
First time seeing your page and happy face. Thank you for the tips.
Thank you so much for the kind words! I'm glad you're here.
Thank you. Very useful video
I really hope it helps!
Very helpful! I Needed to learn what measurements to include in tshirt listing!
Thanks!
Best video I have seen on this type of work
Thanks so much!
Liked & subscribed. Thank your for spending your time to share this video. Great video 👍🌹
Thank you so much!
Thank you so much from a newbie wannabe reseller
You're so welcome!
Another great video with good information.
Glad you think so!
I started following you for your valuable information but just noticed your awesome tee shirt! I am a HUGE Walking Dead fan!
I fell in love with the show immediately. Just brilliantly written.
Thank you!
Thank you for the info. Liked and Subbed!
Awesome, thank you!
Between this video and your shipping video you have eliminated all of my questions and confusion.
I will most definitely keep these in my saved and play again while clicking the buttons.
Thank you SO much.
I really do hope you find some of these helpful and encouraging.
@@TheChaChingKing You made this so uncomplicated. After binge watching your videos this morning. I literally went straight to eBay and made my first listing. Waking up early at 4:30 was a blessing. Thank you again.
Very Well done....with appropriate detail included......!!! :)
Thank you very much!
thank you so much for the information!
I really appreciate you watching and commenting!
I just loooove your energy! 😍😃
Thank you so much. I'm enjoying learning how to make the videos.
I'm very thankful for your videos. I'm a little nervous to start but this helped me. I'm hoping to have better luck with ebay instead of Market place.
You can do it!
Thanks for the video and explanation. You made everything very understandable, and got right to the point.
Glad it was helpful!
@ChaChingKing so I am new to selling through ebay and I have a box that is 27x10x15 what be the best way to mail it and how to package it? It weighs 13 pounds. Is priority flat rate large box what I should select for shipping?
@@Figures_of_Action_Reviews No, the priority large flat rate box is THEIR box and it isn't any where near that size. You need to select a standard shipping and/or UPS. You'd get clobbered on a box that size with the post office. If the overall dimensions of a box exceed 12x12x12, USPS may not be the best choice. The also have extra charges for anoy box over 22" long.
@ChaChingKing thank you for assisting me with this question. I really appreciate you taking time to get back to me.
Thanks for the good info.
I appreciate you watching and commenting!
Hi that is exactly what I want thanks again
Awesome! I hope it's helpful
I like your videos. Helpful. Thanks..
Glad to hear that!
Thanks for all the videos, they have been very helpful with my store that I recently opened. I am currently running my first sale. Is there a way to let people know about the sale when they click on an item that is not on sale? Thanks Ron
Great video my man. The only part of this whole process that kinda confuses me is the actual shipping part. I gotta watch that video next.
Shipping is understandably a big hurdle
fantastic video ChaChingKing. I killed the thumbs up on your video. Continue to keep up the superb work.
Thank you SO much for the comment! I truly appreciate it.
@@TheChaChingKing no problem at all. always happy to support my fellow content creators. I am looking forward to improving on my own current video format I have uploaded and, in the future, trying to create content as good as yours in the long term.
Excellent guide..it is very details tutorial..
Thank you so much!
Excellent. Thanks.
Thank you!
Thanks for the great video. I just started selling the other day and so far, I have had 2 sales which I am shipping out today. I offer free shipping, but I have factored my shipping cost into the price of my listings. I do not offer returns because I have been reading so many horror stories about returns lately. I am going to continue with this for my first months to see if my items continue to sell. I started on Postmark and Crosslisted to Ebay the other day. I just got my Amazon account approved as well. I greatly appreciate your videos they are definitely helping a newbie like me. Keep them coming, please.
Sounds like you have the ball rolling, which is absolutely the hardest step. Good for you!!!
Great video Scot! I need to start using my laptop to do listings more.😬 Great step by step. Gonna get my ChaChing King T-shirt!!😎👍🎊🎉
I've wondered if I should shoot a similar video for listing from a phone (android)
@@TheChaChingKing I'm sure it would be great and helpful.👍
@@TheChaChingKing yes please do!
I would like to buy one of your T Shirts since you did such a great job on how easy it is to sell on e-Bay.
This is the ebay store I created to teach from. See if you can find one here.

Thanks SO much for the kind words!
Hi, appreciate your video. The part I get confused on when listing on eBay for some reason, is the shipping details.
No doubt at all that shipping is just about the biggest hurdle people face. I'm working on a new shipping video right now. Hopefully within the week it'll go up. I'm trying to work through every single aspect of the shipping process. A to Z...from creating a shipping policy to packaging.
Excellent video presentation...
Thank you so much!
thanks bro
thanks for talk on how to put in your item

I hope some of it is helpful. :-)
Great video!!!

Wow great... thank you 🙏
