I started in november, i just hit 2k on my 90 day total sales. Thanks to youtubers like Jride flips, technsports, Flippin aint easy, shed flips, one foot flipper, and flipping junk i have a 100 item store with 40 sales in just under 2 months with a 5 a day listing habit while working a 9 to 5. also 8 positive feedback as seller and seeing 1-3 sales a day consistently for the last couple weeks. The advice these channels give is GOLD. I live by sell through rate and if not i price down until it creates a fast sell through rate. Thank you jride

Not being negative. Just letting your people know my experience. I run a repair shop so I started out with a ton of electronics and electronic parts and those frauds were about 1 in every 50 transactions. Until I started letting people know in my description I record the whole process of testing, shipping and returns. Electronics are a lot more likely to get at least fishers for refunds.

I'm a new seller on Ebay. I put the cost of shipping supplies in the price of the item being sold and the buyer pays for shipping at Ebay rates. So far, this is working nicely. I never list an item without having the item pre-weighed and pre-packaged if it's hard goods. Clothing is kept sealed in a zip lock bag with the item number on the bag and packaged when sold.

Thanks for your videos as they have been very helpful. Picking up high sell thru items has been a huge help to our business!

I’ve been ebaying as a side hustle for about 4 months consistently. Not doing bad. Your videos has helped. I’ve learned a good bit from you and others. Thanks for the content.

Jake, thank you for pointing out the "eBay island" aspect. 3 months after I retired, my former supervisor called, and asked me to please come back, because sev new hires didnt show up. (All young, which doesnt make a good statement for modern youth in the workforce.) Anyway, i returned to work for another year; then worked 3 years at state parks, because my car bit the dust and I had to replace it.

Long story short, after I got my new- to-me vehicle paid off, I realized I wanted to work for myself. I got into eBay and have never looked back. 😊😊

I usually go thrifting with my best friend. She typically goes for women’s clothes and I typically go for men’s clothing. If I come across something she might like I give it to her and vice versa.

You're literally my favorite eBay youtuber. Thanks for the great content and the constant motivation! Also, imo you've broken eBay down the best of everyone. I learned the comps and sell thru rate from Ralli Roots, but it's so wholesome to hear you drill it in our heads with each video.😂 It truly is a MAJOR KEY 🔑

Amen my brother! Thanks for the great content. I’ve been selling on eBay since 2000 but not very seriously till this year. I’ve been an automotive technician for 20 years and I just turned 50 last Sunday. I really want to retire to reselling only in the next 5 years and you’ve got me pumped that it can actually be done! I work at the auto shop 55 hours a week and only have the evenings and weekends to resell but it looks like I can pull down an extra 25-35K next year part time. I’m rambling but just wanted to say thanks again for the encouragement.😊

This is by far the most informational and useful video on here regarding ebay selling. I just started a couple weeks ago, just trying to get rid of old crap and make some cash. I have 53 items listed, sold 3. Made $100. I wondered why some of my stuff wasn't selling, and had questions about selling on there. You've answered all of them and then some. Thank you.

Love the advise. Especially to tell people to get as much feedback as possible through buying before selling. Luckily I've been on ebay just as a customer since 2001. So I had a ton of feedback long before even considering being a seller. I noticed I never got those blatant scam attempts that a lot of newer sellers speak of.

[alishiadaggett]

When you said aside, the point, I really enjoy your content. I like that you’re thorough and yeah it is a very good point. You’re utilizing as much as you can goals.

[msferz]

You definitely have a knack for this. Very good info. Thanks! I think reselling is really good for the environment and cuts down on waste. It's a positive contribution to society.

So true about importance of sell through rate when sourcing. My warehouse is full of junk that I picked up a few years ago when I was clueless. Stuff I source now usually sells within 3 months.

❤your content and positivity. I’ve learned so much. Today is my 1 year eBay anniversary. It’s been a blast so far.Thank u

[dawud]

I was a buyer before seller and I never dragged payment out and always got delivery hassle free, no lost goods or damaged items. So without knowing that has actually helped me avoid scammers is great.
