What Sold August 15-21 I turned .50 cents into $54.44!

This book sold within a month of listing, The Goldfinch. I recently relisted this week too, for $4.50 + $3.99 shipping. (Before I relisted this book, it was $9 shipped. This works out much much better, and it encourages my shoppers to bundle books). The Depop fee was .85. The Paypal fee was .80. Shipping costs was $3.45. My COG was .25. My profit $4.75

Cool so I had two sales on Depop in the same week, that's the most activity I've seen on that app in a while.

This sold in a bundle - Pride and Predjuce ($10) and a book Shakespeare ($20) The Depop fee was $3. The payment fee was $1.24. Shipping cost was $3.45. My COG was .25. My profit was $22.06

I was very happy with this order!

The buyer on Mercari asked for this book in particular - there were crazy comps everywhere, so my offer was $30 shipped. The selling fee was $3. The processing fee was $1.17. Shipping costs was $3.45. My COG was free. My profit 22.38.

This next one was such a surprise!

I started an ebay early July and totally forgot about it. (blog post here)

Go Ask Alice sold for $9.99 Free Shipping. (I only had one other book in my shop! It had already sold too so I made sure to cancel that listing.) I'll ship Tuesday which is my next day off. After fees Ebay deposited $8.14, and shipping costs were $2.89 My profit was 5.25.

I started a new job this week. I didn't push so hard for sales like I usually do on a slow week. On Tuesday I am going to be photographing all my new inventory and try to photograph 100 items to post throughout the next week.

On a personal note, I need to focus on myself and work on myself and not my failing relationship and all the pain I'm in. I can't let this destroy me. My bookshop really is the fire that keeps me going.
