What Sold August 22-31 I turned $3 into $96.46!

The last sale I had on Depop was 11 days ago, but this is a very good sale! This Scooby Doo book and toy sold for $30 + $3.99 shipping. The Depop fee was $3.40. The Paypal fee was $1.68. Shipping costs is $12.80. (ohh no!! Anthony was in charge of shipping and asked for priority instead of first class.) My COG was a total of .50 cents. My profit was $15.61.

I made my money back from this Thrift with me!

I may have sold this for too low however I was craving a sale. On Mercari, these vintage AVON frog earrings sold for $9 free shipping. The selling fee was .90 cents. The processing fee was .56. My COG was $1 and my shipping costs were $4.25. My profit then was $2.29.

One of my favorite sales just because this was fun to put together - a Christmas TBR book lot! Sold for $12 shipped. My COG was $1. The selling fee was $1.20. The Processing fee was .65 cents. Shiping costs was $4.45. My profit was $4.70.

This is another book I sold for too low - it was $9 free shipping and it's pretty heavy. At least it was free. The selling fee was .90 cents. The processing fee was .56 cents. Shipping costs was $3.82. My profit was $3.72

the best order I ever had on Etsy - this book I got for free at the library. it sold on Etsy for $72.29. After fees Etsy deposited $66.13! Shipping costs was $3.45. My profit was 62.68!

Scarily enough, it seems like there are shipping delays with this order. Hopefully, everything will be okay.

I started my new job and almost quit because i was having so much anxiety, so much nerve pain, and i feel like nobody likes me. It makes me miss my old job terribly.

Another order I had was THe Resuce on Mercari. Sold for $8. Selling fee was .80. the processing fee was .53. COG was .25. Shipping costs was $3.82. my profit was $2.85.

This book sold through Wonderlust to a repeat buyer for $8 shipped. It was sent through facebook payments so there was no fees! COG was .25 cents. Shipping costs was $3.14. My profit was $4.61

Shipping with USPS increased 30% this week, the second mail increase this month. Also Paypal has higher fees now.

End of Month Reseller Report - July 2021

How much did I make in July? It's August 2nd and I'm taking a look back at my accomplishments. What Sold July 1-7 What Sold July 8-14 What Sold July 15-21 What Sold July 22-31 I made $235.54 selling books. I did my first ever listing challenge and I want to do another one - stricker dead line. List 100 Items in 13 Days. That's half the time it took to do the original challenge. 13 is also the date I was born. A Baker's Dozen. Perfect! When I told Joe at the Post Office I wanted to make $1k or $800 a month he blew a tire and looked skeptical, and he kinda laughed. We both did. Is it such a crazy idea that I deserve this? That at the end of everything, I'll be the owner of a secondhand bookshop. Some cool things I added to my shop: Magic The Gathering Cards, skirts, I opened my Ebay store and added items but haven't completed the set up. Also, my new goal is to make $100 each week by pursuing sales. Offering to likers on Depop which i never do - posting more i...

What Sold July 1-7

These weekly What Sold posts kept me organized, so I'm bringing them back. I review what items sold on each platform, how much it sold, the fees, and what my profit was. Every month I have the same goal to make $350, but my dream goal is to make $800 per month just by selling books. I currently sell on Depop, Mercari, Instagram, Etsy, and various Facebook groups. Depop has been incredibly slow - I have not made any July sales yet. In June I had 4 orders, in May I had 3, in April I had 6 orders, 7 orders in March, 9 in February, and 7 in January. That gives you an idea how many orders come through Depop and why it's important to cross list. I think I have more sales on Mercari. The Summer Slowdown is here! I haven't made any sales yet on Mercari in July. Mercari makes it a little harder to view your sales history in chronological order, but here is how many orders went through each month this year 2021 on Mercari: January - | | | | | | February - March - | | | | | | | | Ap...

Selling on Ebay for Beginners - Pt. 1

I am brand new to selling on Ebay, I avoided it because I personally felt that the interface felt outdated, I never buy anything on Ebay, and Ebay seems intimidating . On the other platforms I sell on, it is so easy and fast to list. When I listed my first item, it felt like I was filing out paperwork at a doctor's office. It's going to take some time to get used to Ebay's layout, a newcomer can't navigate the Seller's Hub so quickly. It's free to register. Ebay will send an amount to your bank you have to confirm to receive payments. When you first start out, you can only list 10 items per month, this renews every 90. You have to build up your "feedback" - so I'll have to make a purchase or two through Ebay. (Going to see if I can find a Samsung Technologies Q2U microphone to upgrade my Podcast!) This link below is essential reading for new Ebay sellers: https://export.ebay.com/en/listings/limits/selling-limits/ The website says 10, but I was onl...
