What Sold June 22-30: making $43 selling used books

What sold the last week of June? How much did I make June 2023?

Strawberry Girl. Someone messaged me about the book if it had the original price, it did not, to my surprised it was clipped. So I offered her this vintage book $8 plus shipping. (I was asking for $20.) The buyer accepted. This book was from my free Library sale. After fees and shipping I made $5.86.

I was surprised when this sold! This to me proves that fixing my listings has helped. These Banana Republic jeans sold for $13 plus the buyer paid shipping. I got these jeans for FREE! They were from my neighbor, after her garage sale that I went to! That was so so nice of her. I'll post the yard sale video, she ends up giving me all the clothes you see in the video! My profit was $10.10.

Alot of Depop orders came over the weekend! Genuinly surprised, but I realized everyone is home from school. Some students stay home with their parents and have money to splurge. I am also running a sale every week plus when you buy two items you get free shipping.

Rocks and Minerals finally sold! I thought this gem would sell sooner. It sold for $5.25, buyer paid $3.99 shipping. It cost $3.65 to ship. My profit was $3.90. This book was FREE.

Another book from my Goodwill trip in May sold! It was the beloved Frog and Toad book. I had it priced at 4.99 but it sold on sale for $3.74. Remember, I paid .99 for the book BUT I've already made my money back. Buyer paid shipping. shipping was 3.65. My profit was $2.60.

So far, that's $22.46...

This sale kinda hurt. On Depop I have a running sale going on AND Free Shipping, and these two books that sold - Microwave Nature Crafts and Foliage Plants - are both heavy hardcovers. The buyer only paid 8.69, BUT these are more from my "death pile". Shipping ended up being $5.05. My profit was just $3.64.

Recently, on Ebay, I sold this Reebok sweater. It sold for $13.00 buyer paid $4.99 shipping. His total was $19.25, and my profit was $8.92.

And lastly, I sold this bundle of vintage romance books for $10. I made $8.04 on these books that have been in my deathpile for over two years!

43.06 is what I earned the last week of June. How will I ever make it to 2k? 3k?

November Plan With Me / 2020

I have an online secondhand bookshop using Etsy, Depop, and Mercari. I also have a rare nerve disease called CRPS that is gradully getting worse. Hyla brook Books isn't just a distraction, it's a benediction. I applied for my dream job: an children's librian assistant at the library. I had hope that I could make a living of $300/ week reselling - but my record sales in a month was $351.13 (August report). It's my dream to make a living selling my art and books. What are my top 3 goals for the month of November? Make $390 - sell my art work - list 300 items across all platforms What are my weekly goals to accomplish my monthly goals? One resin project a week - make a scheduling routine- focus on books with high resell value - create space to photograph What could I have done differently in the previous month to improve my shop revenue? List every day 2-4 items or 10-15 listings. Use art to heal. Engage more. List clothes! | How Much Did I Make in October ?...

What Happened To the Declutter Deathpile Series?

There were two main objectives in the Declutter Deathpile series, or The Minn Game: 1. Get rid of clutter by removing items from my apartment. "out with the old, in with the new." "everything must go" "letting go of what no longer serves my business" and not listing items that are not worth my time. 2. complete within 30 days removing 1 pound of stuff on day 1, 2 pounds of stuff on day 2, and so on and forth. "a weight off my shoulders" "quantifying how much I let go." "make sure items are removed by midnight that day" I had planned to make consistent content, a video update every 3 days throughout the month I cleaned out stale inventory.
