What Sold November 8- 14

Here's what sold this week! This week was so special because it was my birthday.

Eat, Pray, Love

First time doing free shipping on all books as a special sale. Sold for $4.95 shipped. Depop fee was .50 cents. The PayPal fee was 44 cents. Shipping was $2.80. My profit merely $1.21. This book has been in my shop almost all year.

Gulliver's Travels, A Fine Balance, What Religions Believe

Sold to a repeat buyer. She spent $24 on Depop. The Depop fee was $2.40. The PayPal fee was $1. The shipping was $3.86. My profit was $16.74.

Lady Almina and the Real Downtown abbey

Listed this the other day so happy it sold quickly on Depop. She paid $4.95. The Depop fee was 50 cents. The PayPal fee was .44 cents. Shipping was $2.80. my profit was $1.21.

for the first time ever, I put FREE SHIPPING on all my books. one reason is because I need more room. second reason is my competition prices low. third reason is because i wanted to see if FREE SHIPPING would actually work to generate a lot of sales - it did.

I edited an image and put all my book listings to FREE SHIPPING. I am glad I did this too because I have a lot of listings - I imgaine a buyer would tire sifting through them all. (Over 300) What prompted me to do this was only having enough money for one more months worth of living.

I didn't get my dream job at the library, but I applied for an open position at the Dry Cleaners down the road. This would really help me. I'm going to ask to do partime since I have to walk and I have CRPS in my right arm. I am still uncertain if I'll be able to press shirts because of my disability.

I've also just stumbled on the Depop Reddit page while googling "full time depop sellers." Never thought to go on Reddit!!

Gathering Blue

Sold on Depop for $8.50. The Depop fee was .85 cents. The PayPal fee was .55 cents. Shipping was $2.80. My profit was $4.30.

I decided to run another sale- this time instead on free shipping, it was a whopping 25% off. That's one of the biggest discounts I've ever given. It seems fitting to do these in November / December since it's all about gratitude and giving back.

Vintage nature encyclopedias

These sold on Depop for $49.50. The Depop fee was $4.95. The PayPal fee was $1.74. Shipping was $5.98. My profit $36.83.

Vintage 1980s Eggplant waterpitcher, the song in the walnut grove

I've had these for a while! The pitcher was $3 at the Hospice. And I'm going to miss this beautiful book. She spent $52. Depop fee was $5.20. The Paypal fee was $1.81. Shipping was $8.86. so after my costs of goods I made $33.13.

My profit this week was: $93.42.

Net profit: $93.42

Total # of orders this week: 6

Total # of books sold: 11

What Sold Oct 8-14 // I turned $4.25 into $75.57

Did I do better than the week before? I barely listed any items. Days went by where I didn't list. I had sales on all 3 platforms. My COG was free. adidas Boys track jacket, small child 7/8, outdoors winter workout =$3.91 AUTOGRAPHED America : Imagine a World Without Her, Dinesh D'Souza non fiction = $4.35 1970's football dolphins steelers nonfiction biography vintage NFL sports books = $1.31 colleen hoover books bundle paperback thriller bestseller = $8.09 Dorothy wizard of oz Halloween costume cosplay blue gingham dress = $12.42 Oathblood Mercedes Lackey paperback vintage used book fantasy =$1.99 A Court of Thorns and Roses by Sarah J. Maas = $7.50 Y2k denim overbust shrug / bolero asymmetrical = $40.25 $79.82 - $4.25 COG = $75.57 These are the kind of weeks I like as a hobbiest/ side hustle. $80-$200 a week is preferable. But there's a LOT of work into reselling, you should set your goals higher. $100 a day.

Listing Challenge: I listed like Daily Refinement for A Week

Daily Refinement says you can make $100 a day if you list 5 items that will make you $20 profit. I really like how he puts this into perspective, plus, this challenge motivates you to list items that are worth your time. It's October 1st, and I need to list 5 items! Already the challenge of having enough to source at that high value is evident. All my items I got for free or have been in my closet for a long time. I also want my main focus to be Ebay and Mercari. The first item I listed was this rare, vintage y2k denim overbust shrug bolero. I got this years ago when I started shopping on Poshmark for myself. Or maybe it was Vinted. I don't remember. I have this listed at $85 depop/ mercari / The second item was a pair of black leather boots, brand new they ran a little big for me but I think they would go great for cosplay as well as casual wear. I have these priced at $55. depop / mercari / ebay Next was a pair of Nautica jeans. Not sure how well this siz...
