What did you sell this week that you’re excited about?

Leave a comment linking to an item you sold that makes you do the happy dance!

A “woo hoo” doesn’t have to sell super high. It can be something you’re thrilled to get rid of, something that you got for free and sold, something you paid little for and sold for a great price, & of course it can be something you sold that blew you away!

Whatever it is, leave a link in the comments.

If you sold something at a consignment store or rummage sale, just leave a description in the comments–we want to hear those stories too.

1. The item you link to must be sold not currently for sale.

Questions

We received this question in a comment

Hi. I am just wondering…I sell on ebay and have for years. I kinda understand maybe, why you made your website. To make money from the advertising? Because it sort of hurts us, the small ebay sellers who find their items in various less than convential ways, i.e. thrift, flea markets, garage sales. You are giving all our secrets away and creating more savvy thrift store shoppers! Wouldn’t it be better to keep your secrets a secret? Just curious…

So are you telling me that you make it to every thrift store, flea market and garage sale in your entire region? If  so, then I could understand your concerns.

We share because there is no way possible for every eBay seller to hit every venue in their area.

We share because one seller cannot possibly specialize in all the areas of expertise to sell online.

We share because we have had good success and we’re willing to help others.

We share because other people share with us.

We share because learning how to sell online is overwhelming and we’re happy to help other people just like others helped us!

Advertising money? haha! We’ve had  ONE paid ad in 2 years–you’re funny though!

We do not give away all our secrets–if we have found an item that’s a hot seller and every one in the country has access to it, we don’t share that. But used items that are selling well? The likelihood of very many people finding it is pretty slim.

And honestly, we’d rather another small time eBay seller know that an item  is a good seller so they know to grab it when they’re out thrifting. Wouldn’t you want another small time seller to profit from an item that you will never see because you only get to a limited area of thrift stores?

If Rachel and I were able to thrift at every last thrift store, flea market, and garage sale in the entire country, than I guess we wouldn’t share tips, but until that is possible we will keep sharing what we learn with others.

Update on Selling Pixos

I posted awhile back about one of my best finds, Pixos at the Dollar store. Here’s a little update for you……..

I bought out the Pixos at the dollar store I was at, and a week later, I went across town to the other one and spent another $75 on Pixos.  Didn’t quite buy that location out, but I felt like I had enough Pixos in my inventory at that point…….

Some of them sold right away, and then I had a long lull with no Pixo sales.  I kept my fingers crossed and kept my eyes on the Christmas selling season.

Sure enough…….I sold 43 packs of pixos during the Christmas season!  They were FLYING out the door!  It was so nice to have an item in inventory that I could list ONE time and sell tons and tons of the same item.  My Pixo bin was OVERFLOWING and now, I just have about 10 packs left sitting on a shelf in my garage   I am VERY pleased with the results of this dollar store find!
