What Sold October 15-22






Could I have a week as good as last week? Going to focus on items with higher resell value and listing everything.  I didn't have nearly as good a week because I did not list every day, but I did take this time to organize my inventory.  I sold 4 books, turning $1 into $23.91  


Rebecca
I got this in a recent haul. I accepted an offer on Mercari for $11. The mercari fee was $1.10. The processing fee was .62 cents. It costs $3.33 to ship. I am sad I only made $5.95 on this beautiful vintage book.
Just Listen, House Rules
Sold on Depop for $13.95. The Depop fee was $1.40. PayPal fee was .70 cents. Shipping cost $4.39. (i added a free Nicholas Sparks book.) My profit was $7.46.
David Copperfield
Sold on Etsy during a sale. After fees my funds were $13.83. Shipping cost $3.33. My profit was $10.50.

So far I've made $23.91. I am out of black ink for my printer, I am also out of kraft poly mailers. Printer ink is expensive. I got a printer to print labels from Pirate Ship and to schedule USPS pick ups at my door. I did not list every day like the previous week. I cannot believe this month is almost over! 

I wish I could buy my friend's jewelry and soaps but I must not splurge. I feel like i have some ways to  go before I start seeing a real profit. Over the last few months, I've spent money on sourcing and business equipment (shelves, packaging, a printer) And this is my only source of income.

Edit: Here is the Thrift with Me post where I got Rebecca.

But there's a LOT of work into reselling, you should set your goals higher. $100 a day.
