Latest Sales

 

Life gets so busy it's hard to keep this blog updated! My mom, daughter and I went to visit my sister Naomi for a couple of days last week so that was fun! Nice to get away! We went to a few yard sales when we were there and I found a few treasures to try to resell...a couple of vanity mirrors, a set of hot rollers, some baby Einstein books, etc.....I think I even have them all listed already!

 

Here's some of what I've sold since the first of the month:

 

This half gallon jar took awhile to sell....I think I had it at $35 for awhile and finally lowered it a bit.

These boots were in like new condition. I was thinking I could try to sell them for more but my 16 year old said they are just boots from Kohl's and that they really aren't worth that much so I just listed them for $25...they sold within a few hours! I think I probably could have gotten a litte bit more!

A couple of weeks ago hubby and I were at a sale and the lady pointed out these good as new Red Wing work shoes that her husband never wore. My husband said he didn't need any anymore since he lost his factory job. Well I knew that they are expensive so I was debating about buying them. She had $9 on them so I finally said I would take them. Well then she wondered why I wanted to buy them since my husband said he didn't need them! So I told her I would probably try to sell them on eBay.....I could tell that bugged her! She asked me what I thought I would ask for them and I told her I really had no idea because I didn't have any idea! She said well you could probably get $25 for them.... I knew I could get more than that! I probably could have gotten more than I asked for but I wanted to sell them fast!

This next little package was a fun sale! I remember playing with these types of puzzles when I was a kid. These were 50 cents at a yard sale a few weeks ago. I looked up sold listings and saw that they were selling for between $20-$30. I am so used to listing "Buy it Now" that I forgot to watch what time I started this auction! I had started it around midnight! I wonder if I could have done better if I had ended it at a more reasonable hour! I'm happy with what I got though! They sold for $29.89!
