I have been listing this month even though I haven't kept very good track of how many items I've listed, as you might have noticed by my counter to the right....which says "0". So far this month I've sold 34 things on eBay with a total of $631.20 which is an average price of $18.56 per item. Here's a few of my higher priced sales:
Allen Edmund Shoes
Free from my daughters boss - Sold for $69.95 - Profit $62.11
47 Hot Roller Hair Clips
I forget how much I paid for these but I'm thinking they were just extra ones that came with another set of hot rollers
Sold for $22.95 - Profit $19.69
I found these Holly Hobby Needlepoint pictures at Goodwill for $7.76 for both of them.
Sold for $59.95 - Profit $40.17
Asics Tennis Shoes
My daughter Gabby found these at Goodwill...I think. She gave them to me to sell.
Sold for $44.95
I really love selling shoes! I found 7 pair last Friday out at garage sales. I've taken pictures of all of them and have a couple listed so far. Going to try to finish them up before this weeks sales.
Since the beginning of April I've sold 51 jars in various sizes for a profit of about $289.00! I also picked up 59 jars from 2 different people that answered my "looking for blue jars" ad. I also have another lady that has some for me that I have to pick up. I love the blue jars!
I have been trying to get some of my buttons listed too. I sold 6 different sets of buttons for a profit of $20.42. Every little bit helps and I definitely don't need all of these buttons sitting around here!
So, that about sums it up for the past few weeks. Thanks for stopping by! ~~Pam
So glad you got your phone back. And way to go and the awesome sales! I would never have thought hot roller pins would sell. Thanks for the eye opener.
ReplyDeleteThank you! I added your blog to my blog list! Thanks for stopping by my blog! ~~Pam
DeleteGlad your phone has returned! You have had some great sales!
ReplyDeleteI'm curious how much time you spend cleaning the shoes you buy? I know there is money to be made flipping them. But I also know if there is much extra effort required (cleaning) I will put it in my to-do pile and procrastinate indefinitely. :-) So at this point I only pick them up if they are in like-new condition.
I also wanted to let you know that I moved my blog a month or so ago. Unfortunately blogrolls aren't redirecting. It can now be found at www.shethrifts.com .
Hi Kari...I updated my blog list to include your new link! Thanks for letting me know! I haven't had to spend too much time cleaning up shoes yet and after buying several pairs the other day I told my husband that I will only be buying shoes that are in practically new condition! I'm like you...I would probably never get around to actually cleaning them if they were too bad! I did get a pair or two that I question why I bothered but one pair were Reebok's and they were only a quarter so I had to get them! ~~Pam
DeleteI'm so happy to hear there are still some honest people out in the world. So glad you got your phone back. That was nice of you to send the person some money for their trouble. As for shoes....I too will only buy them if they're like new.
ReplyDeleteThanks Lorraine! I'm glad she was so nice about it! ~~Pam
Deleteawesome sales I just threw my extra hot roller clips in my donate bag I only had about 7 though.
ReplyDeleteYou could probably still sell the 7 for several dollars! Those things are expensive! ~~Pam
DeleteGlad you got your phone back. There are honest customers out there!!! I never thought my income would depend on cleaning and deodorizing (very important!!) old shoes.
ReplyDeleteI'm glad too! Yes, I never thought I'd be selling shoes but I think they will be a good money maker! ~~Pam
DeleteWow, great sales. It is so good to hear you got your phone back. I had been wondering if you got it. I would never have thought of selling hot roller clips. Something to look for now this summer!
ReplyDeleteHave a great week!
So glad you got the phone back. That was pretty funny. Love the needlepoint. My gosh, they are so adorable! And I enjoy selling shoes too. They sell for good $!
