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 the Month Reseller Report // January 2023

I am a part time reseller on Mercari, Pango Books, and Ebay. I flip books online, I love having an online bookstore. Here is a break down of my January sales. This was my first month back reselling! I am hosting a giveaway to welcome back all my readers over on my Facebook page where I am giving away 12 vintage true crime novels. I also wanted to celebrate by doing a fundraiser to raise money and awareness for my favorite cat rescue.  My Cost of Goods were .25! I didn't have to pay anything in shipping, here's a small break down of the platform fees: Mercari:  -$3.56 Pango Books:   -.79 Ebay:   $-1.31 Overall, I had a total of 7 transactions. A total of 9 books left the shop! 3 on Mercari 1 on Pango Books and 1 on Ebay. I also had 2 transactions on Paypal. (100% of the profits went to the rescue.) My goal is consistent sales, I ended up listing only 37 books in the month of January. More listings equals more sales!!  My net profit was $17.28, BUT I di...

When Your Best Friend Pulls Out A Yearbook 2010

It's so crazy to look back at myself more than 10 years ago - my skinny jeans, converse wearing, side swept bangs and puka shell necklace self. I just noticed my legs are crossed in both photos. John Earl had a mega crush on me, and we were Literary sweethearts and he even bought me my first typewriter : a vintage Royal typewriter with a locking case.  He ended up marrying a very pretty girl and he seems like the perfect husband.  I was in Literacy Circle (a club for readers) all years in highschool and worked as a media assistant those years too.  Funny how I'm looking at this photograph, 10 years later, selling books. 

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...
