I made so many sales on FBMP. On Thursday, I spent 3pm to 8 pm listing as many items from Depop to FBMP - I think I got 33/100 and I've made 5 sales in just 24 hours!!! I sold Stephen King, buyer paid for shipping. We became friends on facebook even! I love making friends over the love of books. She is also disabled so I am sending her 2 mystery books, this will be a fun experiment, plus she paid for shipping so if I keep it under 2 pounds, I should be okay.

Stephen King sold for $4, buyer paid for shipping. FBMP selling fee is only .40 cents. MY COG was .25. That makes my profit $3.60 + I made a happy customer with the two mystery books which are Must Love Dogs and Girl on the Train. (one involves pets and one is a murder mystery )

Also on FBMP this book about Steelers Franco Harris, I sold for $8 buyer paid for shipping. The selling fee was only .62. My profit was 7.38. 

I got this leopard print skirt last year. I would not normally pick something like this up, but I was watching reselling videos and everyone was saying that leopard print was trending. Lo and behold, this sold within hours of listing. It's a Michaels' Kor's offbrand i think, leopard print skirt that sold on FBMP for $15. the Facebook selling fee was 1.44. My profit was $13.90.

These books sold seperately on FBMP. Buyer paid for shipping. They are horror/ suspense books. Sleep Walk and Every Secret Thing. Every Secret Thing I got for free. Love when I flip things that were free. Every Secret Thing sold for $5 free shipping, FBMP selling fee was .40. My profit for that book was $4.60. Sleep Walk sold for $6 and buyer paid shipping. (I shipped these in the same polymailer.) THE FBMP fee was .52. My profit was $5.48. My total profit would be $10.08. 

Noticed that my sales were slow this week compared to last week, so I power listed a batch of 14 books on FBMP. It sold within an hour of listing. It's called The Fault within Our Stars, sold for $4. Buyer paid for shipping. the FB selling fee was .40 cents. My COG was .25 cents. My profit was $3.35.

This dress took so long to sell! I got it last year, September 4th. Here is the blog excerpt from my old previous blog 

 

"Thanks to watching lots of resell videos, I found a BOLO dress – it’s by CHICO’s, and i picked it up first because it’s burgundy with this pretty botanical print. I put it back when it wasn’t my size, then went to check the tag, i’ll put it up right away since it’s got fall colors and can transition well from the end of fall too."

I accepted an offer for $28 and the buyer paid for shipping. The selling fee was $2.80. The processing fee was $1.11. I can't remember how much I spent on this dress, I'm going to say around $3.99. My profit was $20.01. I'm so happy this sold!!
