3 Sales Sunday

I sold these 16 jars together in one order. I was so glad to get a bigger order! We have been taking each day as it comes since my husband was out of work. He has a job now but it pays $9 less an hour....how do we get by on that?  Anyway, this order helped pay a bill!
 
Paid $10.00 - Sold for $65.00
Paid $6.00 - Sold for $39.95
Shipping charged for all jars was $27.50
Profit on this order of 16 jars was $79.70
 
I had these rubber stamps laying around forever. My sister had given me some and some of them I had won in a contest years ago. I'm not counting them as having paid anything for them. I started them at $9.50 on auction. I do wish I would have gotten a little bit more for them but I'm glad they're outta here! 
 

Paid - $0 - Sold for $9.50 plus $9.70 shipping - Profit $9.27
 
My husband does have another job interview this afternoon. The pay and insurance is better for this job than the one he has. He does like the job he's at right now but I'm hoping he gets the better paying one! It will help our stress levels go down!
 
Going to try to get lots listed today. Thanks for stopping by! ~~Pam

  3. Great profit on those jars. That's definitely your niche! Rubber stamps are hit and miss I think. It depends on the brand and subject I guess. I keeping finding things around the house to sell. I was organizing some stuff and came across two PS2 Demo games still sealed in their envelopes. I sold them for $8.95. Good luck on hubby's job and I hope your daughter is feeling better too.

  6. Hi, I was watching an American Pickers episode yesterday, and Frank bought some of those blue jars. He said they were desirable because of the color. I know he paid $40 for #7 for maybe 6-8 jars? I thought of your blog when I saw that! You are doing very well on ebay! Selling on ebay and craigslist has been a big help to my family as well.

    1. Sounds like he paid about the going rate! I sell my jars on Etsy. I only sell "specialty" jars on eBay like maybe one that has a #13 on the bottom or just a different kind of jar. Thanks for your comment! ~~Pam
