What Sold September 22-30 - I spent $6 and made $73.47!

 I was so escatic when this item sold. I purchased this last year, it is a horse print denim jacket. Very unique. It sold on Depop which is the perfect market for it. I don't remember what I paid - I'm going to say $3 from the Hospice. It sold for $43 Free Shipping. The Depop fee was -4.30. The paypal fee was 2.06. Shipping cost was $5.42. My profit was $28.22. It's too bad that I didn't charge for shipping. The crazy thing was - I had a dream the night before this sold and it sold. 






This book sold on Mercari for $19, it is a Landmark book on Ferdinand!! The selling fee was $1.90. The processing fee was .85 cents. Shipping was 3.19. my COG was .25. I also got this recently but looks like I don't have a post about it. My profit was $12.81


This book sold on FBMP and it was free, I got it from the free little library, I'm so blessed it's down the road. It's called You Can Garden Anywhere. It sold for $6 and buyer paid for shipping. My profit was $6.


I accepted an offer on Mercari for $12 for three Barbara Kingsolver books: The Poisonwood Bible, Homeland, and Flight Behavior. The selling fee was $1.20 and the processing fee was .65. My COG was .75. Shipping costs was$4.45_. My profit was $4.95__.

So happy this sold on FBMP! Buyer paid for shipping. I paid $2 for this Harry Potter potions toy set, it came out during the first film. My listing price was $20. My profit will be $18.54, well, after COG it will be $16.54. I actually have a youtube video when I got this ( Thrift with me August )





I am out of polymailers this week, so I'll have to reorder some soon. Having this job at Subway has been the best, I treat Subway as my best investor. I also started paying myself every other week, one of the best business decisions I've ever made.

We are heading into Q4, I need to knock out a bunch of listings from my death pile. I'v also gotten in the habit of relisting my items on Depop instead of just bumping my items.

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...
