My friend donated to my Ko-fi, without her help I would not have been able to get a doctor's appointment and I need to take my depression/nerve medication at least for my followers who really care about me and what to see me get better.

I haven't listed anything in days due to my toothache, i'm miserable tbh. Even Anthony has been saying things like "Why don't you just go lie down, go to bed?" or "I'm sorry your tooth hurts so much."

I am also still trying to figure out the shipping for this record/LP. I'm going to have to make one with cardboard, and i did see some in a trash can outside the postoffice that's very thick/ high end.

After a lot of relisting, Barney's Favorite Mother Goose Ryhmes sold on Depop for $12. The Depop fee was $1.20. The Processing fee was .67. Shipping costs $2.89 . COG was .25. My profit $7.24

This next book sold on Etsy, Letters from the Earth. After fees, $13.43 was deposited to my bank account. Shipping costs was $3.45. I already made my money back from this Estate sale so this was all profit. My profit was $9.98.

I listed this today in an effort to squeeze in as many sales today to finish off the end of the second week of August good! I'm proud - this is my second Kate Spade eyeglasses case I sold. Sold on FBMP for $18 shipped. The FBMP fee was .97 cents. Shipping costs $5.50 first class. It cost me .50 cents. My profit was $11.03.

And then I accepted this kind offer on Mercari for my Hozier LP album, the second record I sold in one week. I will def. be searching for records now. I had it listed for $45 shipped, I accepted an offer for $35 shipped. Just got to make sure to ship it out on Monday!! That's super awesome. I spent $1.50 on the record. The Mercari selling fee was $3.50. The processing fee was $1.32. Shipping costs $3.45. My profit was $25.23.

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...
