eBay: i purposely don’t share my eBay, I don’t sell things most people want; I sell very niche products. When I do make videos people tend to track it down. Please don’t, my sales always go way down as a result. (I think this is because eBay sees an influx of store traffic but no sales or offers but not sure exactly). I promise I have nothing you want and won’t have any content to put out if I don’t make sales! Thank you for your understanding! And if you do want to contact me for questions or to just say hi shoot me an email or hit me on ig! I reply to all of them!

Haven’t even watched it obviously I’m just stoked there’s another update from you! 🎉
Appreciate it!
Same!
Bruh you look just like Elon musk 😘@@Analog_money
Hahaha if only he was known for his looks 😂😂
Been waiting for a while! I thought you'd found a different job and left UA-cam! I got into reselling after watching your videos. Not a full time thing, but a side hustle. Made a fair amount in the last 3 months. My recommendation is if it takes a long time to test, it's not worth your time. Don't worry about making these videos polished or anything. I think most of us just enjoy hearing about the process.
I appreciate you watching and the support thank you! Yeah so it depends on the item and I do agree for low dollar stuff, but for example those mixers I was testing were $300, but if not I probably would have sold them as parts
i was just thinking it had been a while since i heard from this guy. i remember watching the very first video when he started selling. now i find myself in a similar situation. i can't find a job so i'm making my own job. i'm starting my own AI agency and I was wondering if I should also do a vlog like this. I was also wondering whether i should make my videos raw or take my time to edit them. anyways, good to hear you're still hustlin' my guy. now i'm part of the club too. let's keep up the good fight.
@StrikerEureka85 just do it, it’s UA-cam everyone has access. But yeah I’d look into videos on how to make good videos tho
Oh shit! You inspired me homie, sold 300 bucks of stuff I just had laying around in the last 30 days! Dope to see you post again!
That’s so great to hear keep going! Thanks for watching!
Awesome video as always! All that work to turn 3K profit in a month and now this year we eBay re-sellers are going to get hit by the IRS for all sales over $600 (used to be 20K). It sucks for us that do it for fun and a little extra money while also working our day jobs. Got all my receipts saved and mileage tracked (garage sales, estate sales, storage lockers, etc.) to write off hopefully a ton of what the IRS thinks I'm getting all that money off of eBay. It sucks for the go getters out there hustling to bring in extra income and then getting taxed on it on top of their yearly jobs we are already paying into the system. Looking forward to your next video!
Yeah I hear you on that thank you for watching!
Eventually people will quit voting Dem. It just has to get bad enough.
I love your editing style. It perfectly conveys your crazy frenetic hustling lifestyle 😂 and delivers just the right amount of anxiety to the viewer. While watching your content, in order to cope, I do shots of whisky and am suffering hairloss at a healthy rate now😂. Thanks.
😂😂😂 that’s hilarious i appreciate you watching thank you!
Screw these people and their negative feedback. Most people know that the public is hard to please and always trying to scam people. A few negative reviews will not destroy your business
Yeah definitely still sucks tho, thanks for watching!
Avoid electronics. Too many problems with testing. You will destroy your feedback if you go heavy into them. Many switch to clothes for this reason, which mainly just has returns as a primary problem.
@HarryBallsich yeah idk, it really depends on the type of electronics you sell but I get what you’re saying
We had 100 percent positive till May of this year after 4 years of selling and now we have 7 negative feedbacks. All of them are BS and a couple of them were straight up extortion, but alas ebay didn't agree. The feedback revision department sucks now that they've changed things around.
@darrenleaguecity yeah they’ve changed their policies for sure!
I was super excited seeing you dropped another video, this series has me hooked! Glad to see you had a great month, and wish you the best bro, keep killing it!
I appreciate you watching thank you!
Nice to see you back! Enjoy the videos and how candid you are about selling and the realities that come with it (carrying inventory, handling returns, shipping/packaging, dealing with unscrupulous customers) it's not easy!
I really appreciate that! Yeah it can be a hassle sometimes for sure!
dropped everything I had to do to watch this. Love this series bro!
Thank you i appreciate it!
Welcome back bro! Keep hustling!
Thanks qbed i appreciate your continued support!
@@Analog_money You are welcome. Enjoy your journey.
Glad to see you’re still going. Your videos inspired me and my gf to start flipping and it’s actually a fun side hustle for us
Thats dope, So glad to hear it!
The moment they threaten negative feedback you WIN. Ebay considers that extortion. They can't do that, especially if they refuse to open a return. Feedback will be removed and you don't have to refund them anything.
No idk if you missed it, eBay looked at it and said it wasn’t extortion
@@Analog_money that's insane lmao
Yeah refund, replacement or negative feedback is not feedback extortion. Well I don’t know what is
@@Analog_money I still believe you have a valid case for seller protection, if the buyer is demanding a refund or replacement without returning the item that is against eBay policy & any negative feedback should be null & void. If they have followed through with their threat I would be onto customer support again, sometimes its as simply as the eBay person you get determines the outcome. Great vid.
Yeah it was crazy, first person said that quote, but then a second rep took over and said let’s look at it again, I said okay and then a third person took over and said “we already told you it’s not extortion” I was like you contacted me 😂😂. They don’t care as long as someone doesn’t do a chargeback, they don’t care. Another fun fact in upcoming videos: buyer not looking at photos, nor reading descriptions and admitting it qualifies as INAD, confirmed by eBay.
You are legitimately insane. Congrats and good luck.
Haha i appreciate it thank you
I thought you found a job and left us! Glad you back, man! I just found your channel last week and got hooked with your content! Please release more often! xD
Will do thanks for watching
I remember seeing someone’s comment in one of your early videos saying it’s a good idea to keep a limit on your inventory, try to have a goal to sell a certain amount of it before buying more, so you don’t have too much laying around. But you argued with them lol. Glad to see you’re taking them up on their advice. Also glad you’re profiting!
No that’s not what I did here
Buying inventory is very addictive. It's the dopamine rush that keeps you going in between the stress of waiting for sales, rushing around meeting pple and shipping stuff.
Crazy business for sure.
Love your videos mate always a treat. I especially like how you go through and choose some of the least flattering thumbnails selfies you can find as well.
Haha yeah you gotta make fun of yourself. Thanks for watching i appreciate it!
Glad to see you uploaded another video. I was wondering the other day how you were doing and was about to reach out😂
You got some good items there! The networking stuff really brings good money when it sells.
Invest in a thermal printer if you dont have one. They save tons on shipping costs. I will say I have issues with the labels getting damaged so I started doing a layer of tape over the barcode and made sure there is no bubbles on it so it scans no matter what happens to it.
Edit: I see you have one. The same one I have as a matter of fact! 😂
If they threaten you with feedback, report them to ebay. They will remove any feedback and you can block them. I had one do that a couple weeks ago
Thanks for watching i appreciate it! I’ve never had that last problem yet but it’s interesting to know and something I’ll probably start looking out for
You can acquire much of your packing supplies for free. It's really easy to cut large boxes into small boxes, too. Also, I feel like the negative feedback extortion racket is on the rise for some reason. I've had it happen twice in the last 2 months. And some of them leave the negative feedback AND THEN send you extortion messages and offer to change it to positive if they get what they want. It's not easy out here but it isnt too bad either. Keep up the good work!
As far as the boxes, yes but it’s so much tougher to find the right size so it’s worth it for me. And yes, those people are ALLEGEDLY committing federal crimes (wire fraud, mail fraud, interference in interstate commerce; idk I’m not a Lawyer, I’m a moron.)
I love your videos. They're so natural. Glad you're making money!!
I appreciate it thanks for watching!
been here since the beginning and i can honestly say, cant wait to see this channel blow up
Thanks dude I really appreciate your support!
You produce quality content and seem to be a stand-up guy! I'm glad you're back :)
I really appreciate that thank you !
Genuinely was thinking about your videos yesterday! Glad you’re back!
I appreciate that, thank you for watching!
I HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS VIDEO FOR SO LONG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Thank you!!
Thank you for the support it means A lot!
Good stuff man, I've been watching from day 1 and it's awesome to see how you've progressed! God bless from Australia🙏🙏
I appreciate you watching thank you!
I just watched the other videos and saw you haven't posted in 3 months and was quite sad. Happy to see a new vid hope the break was good on you
Thank you! Yes nice being offline for sure and back to real life but also to take a step back and reflect on how I wanted to move forward!
So happy to see new content from you! Like an early christmas gift 🙂
Haha I really appreciate that thank you!
dude you are doing great! started watching since the first video. you've come a long way!
Thank you for continuing to watch i appreciate it!
Basics of process optimization: first leave out as many steps as you can, simplify the rest, then automate it if possible. Hope that helps a bit.
Great way of putting it! I don’t think you can do that until you really fully understand the process though
Love seeing your experiences and specially how you deal with the negative things. Makes me chuckle. I just sell Pokemon cards on eBay and TCGPlayer but I've seen my fair share of crazies. Keep it up!
I really appreciate that thank you for watching!
I accidentally sold my dog on whatnot, he walked in the room while I was doing a live auction and some placed a bid on him. I had to pack him up and ship him to Palm Beach Florida.... :(
😂😂
Been loving this series hope everything keeps going your way!
Thank you I really appreciate it!
Glad to see you’re back. I thought you might have given up on recording your adventures
Haha i appreciate nah just a break from being online
Finally man! I checked your channel a few times and was waiting for a new video, awesome vids.
I appreciate it thank you!
Good to see you back; I was worried about you! I hope you sell double this amount next month. All the best 🙂
Thank you very much I really appreciate that!
@@Analog_money My pleasure...Go get 'em Superman!
Ubiquiti nano beams are point to point wireless connections when you don't want or cant run a cable connection to a building. great job man!!
Oh okay cool thanks! Yeah I knew they were some kind of communication receivers/senders and I’ve been seeing them installed now that I’ve sold them but didn’t know their actual utility. Thanks again
@@Analog_money thanks for the reply man! best of luck and hard work!
Great, a new video. Glad to see you back making content.
I appreciate it Patrick thank you for watching
Stoked to see another update! If you're still having issues with traffic from YT messing with your e-bay listings maybe selling channel merch on there could offset it?
Thanks for watching, yeah it could but I’m not going to do merch not interested in just selling junk to people
so glad you back.. love your videos. they help me a lot.
That’s great to hear thank you for the support!
I checked in like 2 days ago because i hadnt seen a video in a while, good to see ya back!
Thanks for the support man i appreciate it
Don’t forget your worth when it comes to sponsorships. Your channel and influence are worth a lot and will grow more every video. Advertiser’s job is to find people exactly like you and your channel. Their influence grows with you so make them pay up. Whatever they are offering you it’s not enough. Don’t be afraid to tell them to get lost. Remember your worth!
Thank you for watching and i appreciate that! Yes I turn down probably 6 deals for every one I take on for a bunch of different reasons
Glad to see your still grinding bro
Thank you for watching!
been following since your 4th month but I am totally caught up in the series. Im in nyc still working a full time doing ebay on the side, really enjoying these vids.
Thats great glad to hear you’re hustling too keep it up and thanks for watching!
This story has slowly become the highlight of my month.
That really means a lot! Glad to hear it and thank you for watching!
Wow! 6 months. I am so happy for you 💪🏻 Congrats
I appreciate you watching thank you!
Love your documentation of this crazy cool startup adventure
I appreciate it, thanks for watching!
Thank you for posting an update after taking a break! 🎉
Thank you for watching!
Welcome Back! I thought you quit but here you are! When are you going on the road to help people with their business, LOL.
Can’t, too much of a celebrity to be amongst regular people
@@Analog_money I liked this video. Happy Thanksgiving to you and your family.
Good to see you back brotha, great video!
I appreciate you watching!
Thanks for coming back with content. Great job
Thanks for watching!
i recently started watching these videos so when i saw you uploaded i got excited, good stuff as always keep it up. i also started selling on whatnot too its not easy.
Thanks for watching! Yeah it’s easy once you understand it probably haha
Production with commentary has really gone up! Reminds me of SirYacht style and really enjoying following your journey.
I really appreciate that thank you!
My guy!!! Glad to see you back on YT!! Was curious to know which light box you got, I'm on the fence about getting one myself as the next step in improving my processes.
Thanks for watching, it wasn’t branded and it was just like a one off listing I found but it’s 40x40x40 dimensions if that helps!
Love this series and how you tell the story!
I appreciate that thank you for watching!
Nice to see you back around! Hope things are going better now!
Everything is great thanks for watching !
This channel is so addictive and I've never even used e-bay even though I was online when it first appeared as a company all those years ago 😄
That’s so dope to hear that non eBay people watch. Thank you for watching and your support!
Was worried you quit! Keep up the content man, love it
I appreciate it thanks for watching!
Omg I was thinking about this guy 🤣. Thanks for the update algorithm
Wowwww he’s back! Excited to watch, your videos are amazing dude
Thank you for the support!
Thanks for the update mate!! Great to keep up with how things are doing and loving hearing good news on your end. Quick idea - have you ever thought about potentially doing an interview/show with Caleb Hammer (Finance Guy)? There could be a pretty interesting crossover there..
Nah probably not, I don’t even like the publicity I have haha
@@Analog_money Stay humble my dude! Love that
Appreciate it!
been waiting! Hope all is well watching now!
Thanks for watching!
Yay! You're back!!
Thanks for watching!
Great flips. You must do a lot of electronics testing. I have the exact same scale. It's perfect. Light box was a game changer for me. Mine's a little smaller than yours, but I do a lot of books and smaller items. $2800 in a month is great!
Thank you! Yes I’m good with audio gear so I do that a lot. And yeah sales were decent but the biggest difference is I didn’t buy $1000 worth of new inventory like most months!
5 seconds in, and I already know this is gonna be another banger
I hope so, i appreciate it though!
I love watching these videos! It actually got me into reselling. I only do lego star wars and over the 3-4 months ive been doing it ive had a blast
Thats dope man and thanks again! Idk if you saw your shout out haha
Think that was a different person with a similar username haha. But I appreciate it ❤ GL in the next month!
Oh 😂😂
Happy your back brotha, congrats on a video sponsor!
Thank you I really appreciate it, flyp is so easy to work with for videos and I actually use their product so it’s a no brainer for me!
Good to hear from you and that you’re doing well 👍
Thank you!
YESSIR I BEEN WAITING ON THIS ONE, I don’t think I’ve honestly ever gone back to a channel as many times as this one just waiting for the next upload your doing it right keep pushing!!!
Thanks dude i appreciate all of your support!
This is fantastically interesting, hope you make it big buddy!
Hopefully the income from these vids makes up for how much effort they take!
I really appreciate that thank you for watching!
Nice work man! Commenting for your pocketbook!
I appreciate you thank you!
Not sure if you use it already but contact cleaner spray is very helpful for revitalising old electronic controls (volume knobs, sliders, selectors, equalisers etc). Spray it into the control then move the control around to ensure the track behind is covered (eg move a volume knob back and forth from 0 to 100). Particularly helps with crackling on audio gear.
I appreciate it! Yeah im well stocked on D5, F5, and BW100 haha!
@@Analog_moneyGood to hear! I wasn't sure if you were up to speed with that type of thing, shoulda known you'd be one step ahead! You're crushing it man 👊
Thank you I really appreciate it and regardless it’s good advice so maybe someone else will read it and benefit. Thank you!
Fav reseller alive always good when you upload
Hahah i appreciate it
I like the quick cuts and how he always seems to be in a panic and worried that things might not sell. It's like he's trying to beat the clock or some imaginary deadline. It's actually a genius way to show reselling, because a lot of us feel that way sometimes.
@theeclectic2919 haha I appreciate it
Glad you're doing well. Best of luck with the next month, hope it's a whopper!
I appreciate it thank you for watching!
Yes bro so happy you’re uploading again 🔥
I appreciate it! Getting back to it for sure!
Polybags, a thermal printer and mail scale have been game changers for me. Makes shipping cheaper and easier win win.
Oh yeah for sure!
What items do you sale?
@@bradwagner4657 All sorts. Vintage clothing, shoes, hats, electronics, knives really anything that can make money.
Your ability to find inventory is awesome.
I appreciate it! Repeat customer and building a net work is super important for that for sure
my dad thought i was crazy when i bought 3 shoe boxes filled with USED light switches. for 3 bucks each. we was on demon time. on our way home from the yard sale, i bet my pops i would sell them within 6 month period. so i took out all the copper wire and put the pictures on ebay. they sold them within a 3 week period. didnt know i could do that until i saw your channel.
Haha that’s dope dude thanks for watching. And glad I helped
There he is! Great to see another upload from you :)
Thank you for watching
Great video!! Glad to see you back
Thank you very much i appreciate it!
Damn, ask and I shall receive! Good to see you back dude!
Hahah I was uploading right as you commented that
There SO MANY strange and weird people out there. I'd find it hard doing a job where you have to deal with members of the public. Hat's off to you!
Yeah I mean in. Real life it’s not terrible but internet anonymity definitely exemplifies it. I really appreciate the support!
@@Analog_money Anytime brother 👍
Life update? How are you doing? Not just the ebay stuff.
Top 5 regrets 6 months in?
Top 5 learning mistakes?
Top 5 revenue earners
Just throwing some extra content idea you could film all the same time as you’re filming these lol
killing 4 birds with 1 stone!!!
Yeah cool idea, probably won’t but i appreciate it
God damn glad you are back!
I appreciate you thank you!
Thanks for the update. Keep going!!
Will do thanks for watching!
In retail we usually do every 3 months is 13 weeks or which translates to 2 4 week months and 1 5 week month schedule starting on the first Monday in February. It helps a lot with year over year comparison and will help you as well with quarterly taxes.
Do what? Sales?
Your so good, I was really stoke finding you posted another video. You have your own UA-cam style and it's great! Lot's of hard work and really enjoy seeing the results. Hope you sell more and get that adrenaline high over and over. 👍
Thank you i appreciate you watching!
So gassed you are back - from the UK
I appreciate that thank you!
Thumbnail image .... amazing. Keep on keepin' on!
😂😂😂 i appreciate it thank you!
I thought that you gave up! Still going strong well done!!
Thank you!
Glad you're back.
Thank you for watching!
Have you tried Uber and Lyft you can make probably 8-10k a month working that way. I think with flipping it’s best to not hold inventory yourself and I suggest selling high ticket items to have better margins and customers usually are more forthcoming with expensive merchandise.
Watches are also a good shout but take longer to buy and sell.
All you need to do this man’s job is to know how to operate, test, fix, list, and ship everything humans have ever invented.
😂😂😂 that’s why I always say, stick to selling what you know about or At least be prepared to learn
I have a long history of under-pricing myself so I have tried to avoid that lately... It's been real hard to sell things *at* market price.
It's frustrating because I need the money so I can put it towards my next steps (inventory for an online store).
Yeah idk, i don’t worry too much about underpricing. As long as you’re still doing well don’t think about what you coulda got, because you might have not gotten the sale had your price been higher
Glad to see a new ep.
I appreciate you watching thank you !
🔥Very top video, checked in december like i told u, lol, next time tell me is november hahahha, lmk when is next month/video
Haha i appreciate it, very soon thanks!
When I would sell stuff on eBay, I would package everything before it sold. Its more work up front but as you sell stuff, you can just send it out and not worry about it.
Nah, I’ve thought about this but I get photos of everything (and video if it needs to work) the day it goes out for proof. Sucks but just helps to cut down on scams.
Amazing video!! Loving the series so far! How do you plan to keep expanding the business??
I guess you’ll just have to wait and see! (But in all actuality just doing more haha)
Glad to see you still grinding and somewhat motivated, keep chasing that cha-ching notification!
Thanks man i appreciate you watching!
found you in college. dropped out and i already did a 500 to 20k, and just did a 1000 to 10K. youre so inspiring
Nice work
glad your back homie
Appreciate it thank you!
