    We didn't start with $1000 , We started with $50. We now have 1200 items listed and made $1600 last month.

    You all are AWESOME. I've been selling on and off on eBay for about 20 yrs., I'm older and yes, I can always learn something new. Your shoe placement for taking pic., fantastic!! Agree use as many item specifics as you can but it's so ridiculous what eBay wants, many categories Do Not Apply and that's what I put, I try to never leave any empty. Great video.

    White poster board, I can do that! Lol. Background remover, and at least 4 pics, but 8 to 12 are better.
    Free shipping that includes the cost into the list price! Perfect it just makes sense, perfect!

    • @marleshakeys
      @marleshakeys 3 роки тому

      The free-shipping decision is a little more complicated now, because... Ebay now requires charging and withholding sales tax for sale. Sales tax is charged on the item price and NOT on the shipping (because shipping is a service, not a good). So that means if you wrap the shipping cost into the item price and list with "free shipping," the buyer now has to pay sales tax on the shipping. Since buyers can sort listing by price including shipping, if you are on par with another seller for total cost to buyer, but you have "free shipping" and the other seller has a lower item price plus shipping, a smart buyer will go with the other seller to pay less in sales tax. I agree there is still the psychological perk to the buyer to see "free shipping"... But due to sales tax (and also with the end of the "ebay bucks" program), the decision isn't as cut-and-dry.

    I started with storage units, and some thrift store stuff. I made quite a lot from storage units. I think what people need to remember about storage units is it is a lot a lot a lot of work. There is a lot of garbage too. You have to figure in the cost of disposal of the garbage. Storage units do not allow you to throw trash into the garbage. Strangely, people store garbage. Oh, but there is money in those units.

  • @marleshakeys

    Question: how do you get buyers to leave feedback?! I have a very small "side hussle" of selling a few things on ebay. I mostly just list them for buy-it-now or best-offer and forget it until they sell. (All of my ebay listed items fits in one tote box so that's where I keep them until they sell and it's time to ship!) I include a thank you note and ask for a review/feedback. And almost never does a buyer leave feedback.
    I feel like eBay should incentivize buyers leaving feedback, because that would help everyone in the long run (including help ebay by promoting more buyer confidence in sellers and thus more sales), but now that ebay has done away with the chump-change "ebay bucks" program, any other small monetary incentive program is probably not going to happen.
