Last July I hit the wall…again. This was the third business model I had tried on eBay and it was not working as I had hoped. Sure, I was making money. We were averaging $3-400 a day in sales but wanted more. Much more. Like 10x that. Digging through thrift stores all day, every day, …
eBay is saturated! Selling on eBay is so 10 years ago! There are no more profits to be made! Believe us, we’ve heard every negative thing about eBay that the naysayers can come up with. In fact, we don’t even bother with such people anymore. My wife and I just look at each other and …
If you’re here, I assume you already know the drill. You source inventory, you list, you ship. You source inventory, you list, you ship. Repeat ad infinitum. I spent years in that cycle and could never figure out why I couldn’t level up my eBay business. When my wife and I finally sat down to …
In the past 5 years my wife and I have sold over 1,000 pair of shoes on eBay. During that time I’ve heard tons of people complain that eBay is dead, there is no longer good shoes brands at thrift stores, etc. We used to review people’s stores to see how they could increase sales …
Dropshipping on eBay sounds like a passive income dream. You don’t touch the products, it requires minimal investment, and you just take your cut off the top when something sells. At least in theory. Ten years ago dropshipping on eBay was as easy as copy-pasting a description and uploading some pictures. People made millions dropshipping. …
*I am not an insurance expert or agent. I am simply sharing my own experience. If you need additional guidance, listen to someone smarter than I. When Kirstie and I were debating about whether or not to go full-time on eBay our discussions really highlighted our youth and inexperience (our stupidity actually…) We talked for …
I don’t have sleep apnea. In fact, despite telling my wife that I should probably have a sleep study done, I’ve never even seen a doctor about my sleep issues. Now, for someone without sleep apnea or a related prescription, I own a highly unusual number of used CPAP machines. As a reseller, I typically …
If you’re looking to buy designer handbags from eBay, buying from an established seller is the most important tip I can give you. Even though it’s against eBay policy there are people selling fake used bags, fake new bags, really expensive knockoffs, absolute garbage, and everything in-between. Buying from a seller that consistently sells designer …
If you are a responsible individual, you have a bank account. If you are a thrifty individual, you sell on eBay. If you are both, then you are awesome and probably have an eBay account just for your eBay store. But what if aren’t quite there yet? What if you’ve been limping along with PayPal …
I recently came under a bit of fire on Instagram for voicing the opinion in one of my posts that reselling on eBay is not stable enough to be your only source of income. Even though I’ve been reselling for the past 5 years (3 of those full-time) I stand by that statement. It’s foolish …
