My Office

While it’s one of the most important rooms in my house, the office still isn’t quite all together yet.

It’s been functional since the first day we moved in, but would I call it finished?  No, not really, it has a way to go, but who has tons of time to work on organizing their office when there’s inventory to be shipped out and listed?

Right now, the office has my shipping supplies, along with my sewing machine and craft supplies.

I love having my boxes, bubble wrap and packing peanuts all in the same room with my printer.  Shipping is so much faster with everything right there.  In our other house, I didn’t have a room devoted to eBay, so the shipping boxes were outside behind the garage, and the bubblewrap and packing peanuts were stored in the garage, so finding the right box could be a chore sometimes, especially when it wascold outside.

When I get it a little bit more organized, I’ll share some pictures of it with you.

Postal Scales?

My postal scale died awhile ago.

I decided to save the money–my husband was between jobs!

Well, I’m TIRED of running to the post office to weigh packages and coming home to print labels and running to the post office again.

I never go out of my way, but it’s a step I just don’t need!

I am ready to get a new scale and wondering which scale do you have?

Do you love it or hate it?

Online Selling Tip of the Week

Help buyers easily find your items by maximizing your eBay Store categories.

Keep your store organized and use as many categories as you can come up with.  Categories are free, so you might as well use them.  Look at your inventory and decide if there’s another category that you can come up with that will maximize the exposure that customers have to your items.

For instance, if you sell a lot of clothes, you can break the categories down to brand names (Gymboree, Hanna Andersson, Nike, CAbi, White House Black Market, etc)  Jeans, Athletic clothes, Sweaters, (and any other types of items that you carry in your store. )

Specific categories will help buyers find your items a lot easier than generic category names.
