What Sold: June 15-21 I made $73.78 from free inventory!

 Can I make more than I did last week? My first week of June, I made $34.62. Last week, I made $30.67. 



This item sold quickly after listing. It was a Cinch pullover, I took an offer for $9. This was free from the Lost and Found. Buyer paid shipping. My profit was $7.12.



White Oleander sold for $8. I did put Free Shipping recently to move older inventory out. I listed this a few months ago, this will ship for $4.35 and I am left over with a profit of $2.12.




I am a little sad this one sold, I wanted to keep it for myself or at least get more money. It has a handmade stamp of 83' at the bottom - it's a ceramic ducks in a row figurine. "Get your ducks in a row" is a cute saying. I paid .25 three years ago. It's been sitting in my shop for a few months, it sold for an offer on Depop of $5. Shipping was $4.31. My profit was $5.34.

I' VE ONLY MADE $14.58 profit!! 


I immediately set out offers, I need the money is my mindset. Let everything go. I have an attachment to some of my items. I'm working on not having that attachment and getting that money. Daily Refinement said in one of his videos that if you are listing every day but not making any sales, to stop listing and fix your listings.

Ebay is so much like Etsy!! 

But I did make some great sales and happy to report that I made more than I did last week! This is my record sales week for June 2023! Love the items that sold, a plush toy, a free item from the lost and found, and a book I picked up sometime last year, when I got better at sourcing books. 



Invader Zim plush I bought for $1, it sold on Mercari for $42!! Buyer paid shipping. After fees, my profit was $35.94, minus the COG (I bought this over a year ago and FINALLY listed it but i wont count that.)



This book, The Intruder, sold for $4. Buyer paid shipping. My profit was $2.86. I purchased this book for a quarter a while back. 





So cool that this Nike lunchbox sold! I think i priced it right at $8, i saw it new for $20 plus shipping and others had it at $13 or $10, I got this for free, I also had to change the shipping b/c it was too high, when i did it sold. I made $6.32.







This buyer on Depop got lucky! Every week I've been doing a sale to push items and this was a 40% off sale. They bought two dark academia books - The Unspeakable People and The Mill on the Floss. (The Mill on the Floss was from my Goodwill buys, which I've already made my money back on!!) Free shipping. Buyer paid $16.80 for both, my earnings after fees was $14.08. 


Not bad, i didn't count my COG since it was from a year ago. Now I need to update my Goodwill challenge!

 This book sold within a month of listing, The Goldfinch. I recently relisted this week too, for $4.50 + $3.99 shipping. (Before I relisted this book, it was $9 shipped.
