They also know how hard people have to work to get where they are at because they've done it before. They don't have to bring somebody else down to pick themselves up
Two quotes really spoke to me this week: "People at the bottom compete. People at the top collaborate." "Easy money ain't good, good money aint easy." To be a fly on the wall at that dinner. Thanks for sharing your insights with us. Extremely valuable.
I have been doing your same hard thing as yourself, without help other than my loving wife of 49 years with her support. Raise 5 sons wow many grand kids and great, but the goal is my pleasure with all. Timeless Treasures
Well nope im not quitting. Scored 4 more items from goodwill. Lunch then list those with a few more from my death pile. I keep telling myself no more buys... but as it goes addicting. Lol. My sales are over up. And focusing on higher bills per sale. Sitting around 30 per item and last year was around 15 per sale. Keep up the great work.
7 days a week is so true. Been doing this 7 years. My 4th child is 3 weeks old and I was answering Ebay questions hours after birthing him 😂 no 6 weeks maternity leave over here. Thank God my husband and I both do this so he can do a majority of the tasks.
Tech!! Best mentor of all time! I have a bachelors and multiple certificates, I've never felt so inspired and hopeful from any teacher or professor ever! You are the most motivational and the realest! Thank you!
Refreshing to listen to a genuine person.. you remind of the kind of guy I could have grew up with.. didn’t have much and appreciated everything we had. We all had to grind to get up outta there. Some made it, some remain…the difference was determination. To take the skills we learned in the street and make a life full of blessings. The hustle was all we had.
“People on the bottom they compete, they fight with each other, people at the top they collaborate”. One of the most powerful things I’ve heard, once again spitting facts coming from the most genuine of guys, the real GOAT🐐 We appreciate you! ❤️
Boy, are you an inspiration to anyone who is a reseller! Hard work pays off! I mentioned I post 20 items per day and I am going to increase that figure in hopes that sparks the algorithms. You mentioned you grew from 100 to 250 items per day in new listings--in the early days Did you post all that by yourself? Thank you so much for sharing. It is nice to watch a person who is humble and down to earth and sincere in helping others to grow.
Tech , dude , super appreciate you sharing your journey, success, …… very inspiring…… We been selling on ebay for about 2 years , crossed over 6 figures last year…… then found your channel……. I been watching all videos ……. Very much grateful for you sharing your knowledge with us
Thanks man. I'm 3 months in. Just building the foundation of my ebay empire. Thanks for the KNOWLEDGE! 220 listed 100 sold $3.3K. List 2 until I sell 2 and then push to 5/5. I'm still working a full time job and have a 5yr old by. Source on my 1Hr lunch breaks. Photo while he is at Ycare. List after he goes to bed. Repeat.
😊 I appreciate the honesty! I’m just getting ready to start EBay part time while working full time. My dream would be able to get out of the Corporate world and work for myself. I just found your videos and cannot stop watching, so much valuable information. Thank you! 🙏
I’ve only been reselling for about the last year. Love your videos and the knowledge you share. Glad you decided to start making videos! Can’t believe you were lying in the cut for such a long time! 😂
Hey tech, working on Ebay when this popped up. I say a lot of the same things. Born in 83 and can relate to a lot of what you speak of. Ebay is not easy at all. Yes, at the end of the day Ebay is a job that has to pay you to work there. I would still rather work on Ebay then be an employee for Walmart or McDonald's. Ebay is definitely like a job some days I can't stand Ebay and want to quit. While other days especially during the fourth quarter im loving it. I always have to remind IT IS WORK.
You may have been the number one male clothing seller on eBay, but I’d beg to differ you found your true calling, sharing, teaching, motivating and being a mentor to all us newbies and even for ANYONE wanting to succeed and be their best. This whole video you could have been talking about any business… MUCHO respect and gratitude and wishing you all of Gods blessings, you’re a rare gem!
More challenging to do it single handedly. Going solo takes sacrifice and aggressive action. Having team players changes the whole dynamics. I salute those who do it Alone!
Got emosh at the end there. I feel the same. Struggles and doing stuff alone without help builds character. It's made me want to give back too in later life because I know my path would have been easier had I known then what I know now ❤❤ passing down knowledge is a lost art.
Success isn't easy. It takes a lot of work. You have to have an excellent work ethic to build up a business of anything you do. It's hard work! All these young people doing reselling were misguided. They were raised for lack of a better term, "spoiled". So many dreamers are out there looking for that extra dollar to be handed to them. It's not that easy. It takes work......Hard work and be passionate and enthusiastic about what you expect out of your passion. No work, no pay. Get up every morning and treat it like a work day. Life ain't easy. We must work for it. Much Luv 🥰
Young people or old people aside, It takes work. Plenty of young folks getting it in every day, plenty of old folks that aren't. But at the end of the day, success does take work.
We have Jack who does $1m & the video game seller with 85+ employees is right there answering any questions anybody has when he jumps on. We got it all
Your The #1 in inspiration as well champ . I have spent so many nights listening to podcasts with you in them as I list all alone in my world . Side Hustle for me , but it lets me visit my parents in New Zealand twice a year as they are quite elderly , and just this week eBay paid for me to go to my daughter's wedding . Third year now doing it and it might be hard work but the rewards are there . Thanks for getting me through all those lonely nights . When your in Sydney to visit Mel I hope you have a meet and greet somewhere because you have quite the following here in Australia .
First of all congratulations on that success! You are living the dream for sure. When I do make it to Australia, my wife & I will spend a considerate amount of time and hopefully meet up with as many people as possible. We both can't wait.
You’re dang right it isn’t easy. But you do make it easier by helping us and having the group. I’ve been selling 7 years full time for 4 and just now starting to feel experienced 😆
Thanks Tech! So grateful for all your videos which is helping me to see the possibility of reselling for a living. Still struggling but one day hope to join your patreon to learn more! ❤
That's a beautiful thing man I'm in a position well always when I start to progress or make significant life changes in regards to success I'm doing it myself and again I'm here doing this that's why I really appreciate what y'all are doing
Tech I made a 100k in sales 75 net from Ebay 2023 year. Your videos are a wealth of a knowledge I truly appreciate everything you gave tips on! If you have the drive and the focus you can do it people.
The fact you are so humble and kind - well speaks volumes. I'm finding it SO hard to find things in a small city in Australia in a very saturated market of resellers. It is not what it was 10 or so years ago at all wherever I would be in Australia. Thank you!
The whole part about community... Yes. I get it. My personality has eschewed community my whole life. At my mid 40s I realized how very wrong I have been. Oh how I wish I had learned earlier. Melissa Manion
2 Bombs dropped: 1. People on the bottom compete, people at the top collaborate. That's deep man. I would love to meet resellers in the Houston area. There is enough business for all of us. 2. Tech thought about getting back in the game. I give you 5 years. You can only go on so many vacations and see so many sights. You are the mamba of reselling. You need the challenge. You need the chaos and the frenetic pace. I bet your back in a few, to soar to even higher heights.
Tons of quality resellers in Houston, start networking. Haha, I don't think so, I've accomplished my mission. I'll always have an ebay store, I love ebay, it's part of my fabric now & keeps me grounded, but I accomplished everything I wanted to & needed to.
Again. So much gratitude for your valuable sharing. I can’t thank you enough for your leadership example. It has had such a personal effect on me because it’s the first time I have ever had access to a mentor who is at your level, or known anyone at all- as successful in all areas of life. someone I can actually reach out to, if i need reseller help. In the group too! This has made all my hard work feel supported and for the first time I feel like- my own dreams are actually attainable. Melissa b
I am so happy you said it-- Reselling is HARD HARD HARD!!! I have two University Degrees and I am a Registered Nurse, but nothing has tried me more than Reselling, nothing! It is not easy to remain optimistic and disciplined when there is litttle, and sometimes, no reward in the growth period. Thanks to your content, I imagine a world where, even during economic hardship, reselling can hopefully out-compete fast fashion.. which means more of the pie for everyone involved and willing to put in the work!
In addition, reselling is so difficult because we have to wear all the hats inside of our businesses. Accounting, book keeping, accounts receivable, buying, billing, advertising, shipping, logistics, etc etc etc
You have been always there for me and every time I doubt myself you come back with a video like this !!!! I am extremely grateful for you and your support! Thank you Tech
Thank you Tech!! I can relate to the isolation and not having community of like minded people just listening to you helps my motivation to keep reaching my goals. So thank you!! You are appreciated more than you will ever know❤
I can’t believe I’m seeing this right now 😮! Tech!! I am shocked you started a RUclips channel. Just stumbled across this video. Love this ! For those of you who aren’t familiar with Tech, this is one of the most genuine, generous human beings I’ve ever met. I’ve learned soooo many lessons over the years from this dude. Used to be in his reseller group as Brandon Lee. God bless you, buddy!
It's hard due to all the hats we have to wear. Logistics, photography, buying, promotions, accounting, etc etc etc. & it never stops. 24 hours a day. But well worth it.
Finding success is hard and does not come overnight. I've been part-time on eBay since 1999 and it supplemented my income during college then into my career. During the pandemic I changed gears decided to make my full-time job part-time and turn eBay into a full-time income. A lot of local ebay resellers that just started have asked me how I make it look so easy. I tell them it's not that it's easy it's that I've built up 25 years of experience in this. I'm still learning and adapting to changes on the platform.
No matter what the season is, the vital things we should have is the mindset, tenacity, and perseverance. Thank you for always motivating us. - zally oren
That is exactly our business model, we have a great relationship with one vendor , we spend at least 10K per month , so they know we are good and will take all, as long as we like the merchandise
Not sure when but in the past years you said on one of the Reseller's Nirvana podcasts "Expect summer slowdown for the next 3 years". I took it seriously and now I'm doing O.K.. If I hadn't taken it seriously, I wouldn't be in business today. Greetings from Hungary, and thanks for everything!
Videos are real and great. I know this has nothing to do with anything but I think it's so cool you have a lawn care business cause I have for 20 years and done well, but my real passion is to become a full time reseller. So I can relate to your journey in a different way but it's motivating to me. Intrigues me how you have passion for lawn care business and reselling. I think the most important lesson is your internal drive has to be relentless to make it. No one can stop "you" but you. If you get that concept I think anyone can succeed. Your living proof. Great motivation and advice
The perfect answer tech. We can all make money. I was told at a garage sale once I was competition so the other guy wouldnt say if a video game was good or not when I asked him. This is after I let him dig through a box that I was already digging through.
My friend who is in a card scene always get a table at card shows. One thing he said that surprised me is he said the reason why he gets a spot at card shows is because he is not there to sell cards, he is there to buy cards. He brings minimal cards to sell to having a full table. That was genius.
Thank you so much! I can’t even tell you how much you I look forward to your post! You have made so many things click for me. I will become a better seller!!!
Great take away from that chat. There is a reason why he's the #1 pre owned shoe seller on ebay and most likely the world. Few million bucks just on ebay, thankful he spent some time with us
Building community and collaborating can only be done at the top - which you stated. You were a lone wolf because you had to be. Someone in the group lives near me and I figured out his spots - it is taking everything in me not to destroy him. There are no friends in this game. You are only helping your competitors. I'm glad you're at the top and can give out info - it has changed my life for the better. I Just bought a house for my large family on ebay money alone - I have you to thank for that.
Hey Tech , I have been watching more of your vids and when you said “ some of the money, all the time is better than all of the money, some of the time” I had to write that down on my legal pad that i use for my newly listed items. I wrote it on the back of the pad to remind myself and that it’s better to go for the fast nickel than the slow dime. And it really makes sense. I think when I list my items I always tend to go with what the median is and in all reality, eBay buyers are looking for a deal.. I’m starting to be a little bit more smarter with promoted listings and really researching the item to really pinpoint what it might be worth than what I think it’s worth.. anyway, tarapeak helps a ton.. thanks man appreciate it , and I really enjoy watching the videos
Appreciate you checking out the videos. You can build a great business around any model. Fast nickel, slow dime, etc. Just different techniques for each. Technically speaking flipping your money as fast as possible will lead to the most money in the bank at the end of the day
This man is the STRAIGHT TRUTH…👏👏👏👏 If anyone has the gift to uplift its Mr TECH… You are a blessing man and rightfully deserves 50+ retirement vacations. Your videos always pop up at the right time. Thanks Tech..Many Blessings to you and your family 💚💚
Thanks tech. I did retail arbitrage of Crocs for the holiday with a Black Friday deal and coupon. I listed for much less than retail and didn’t sell much. Turns out Crocs is selling on eBay with free shipping! While their price was not as cheap as I bought for, it was a price I could not make profit on. 2020 - sold a lot of HBA from couponing for those not going into CVS and Walgreens. Now out of that segment
So funny, I was just sitting here thinking about the struggle … and this video popped up. Yes, you’re exactly right. My sales are so slow. I try so hard with all your advice and others I listen, but there is. HUGE Learning curve here. This consumes me. I use most of my free time trying to educate myself. I joined your group in November. Doing better than before that but rarely have a day that I sell more than a few items. Some days are tough. I have an enormous amount of respect for you and so many others in the group. Reselling is my second job but my goal is to make it my first.
Hey Lynda, you're right, it's a marathon not a sprint. It's going to take time to fully grasp everything needed to get the business off the group & to success.
Tech, such an inspiration. Enjoy the content that you share, but even more so, sharing the reality of the day-to-day grind and commitment that it takes to be successful, it is so useful and needed. You're not getting views by trying to pitch the hype of reselling, but rather, sharing first hand knowledge of methods you used to be successful, that work. Even if it's not glamorous. Happy for your success. And best wishes on the next leg of your journey! Keep putting out videos!
Hello Tech I’m one of those that started in 2020 and enjoying every moment of reselling been growing every year since I do work full time at a job hopefully one day I could take this reselling to a full time spot thank you for all your encouragement from your videos
It is crucial in life to surround ourselves with like minded individuals. Iron sharpens iron🎯 We are the sum of the 5 people we surround ourselves with! Thank you Tech!
Thanks for the inspiration. Thank you for being true to reality. Easy money ain't good and good money ain't easy. Challenge is, we can still make money on Ebay but ain't easy.
Just good stuff all the way around. Always eager to view the next video, even after a long day at the office. Can’t say it enough, you’re so genuine and real. Thank you for sharing your wisdom and knowledge. Appreciate your willingness and time.
Been busting it every single day for 15 years. I've invested wisely & have multiple streams of income that afford a very fortunate life. You know that scene in Forest Gump when he just starts running? I reached that point.

That is because successful people have zero time to hate. They are busy building and creating their next masterpiece.
They also know how hard people have to work to get where they are at because they've done it before.
They don't have to bring somebody else down to pick themselves up
@@technsports 100% truth
Love this comment
This!
"I've never been hated on by someone more successful than me." Great quote.
It's because they know how much hard work it took to get to the level you are at since they've actually been there before.
rare to find someone who made a big success and happy to share their experience and knowledge, salute to you sir.
I hope to help just one person, thank you for checking out the video

Great to hear from you! Keep trucking. Fight the good fight my man
This popped up after our homeschool video, so my 8&11 yr old boys got a lesson on work ethic.
Thank you for checking out the video Jen!
7 days a week is so true. Been doing this 7 years. My 4th child is 3 weeks old and I was answering Ebay questions hours after birthing him 😂 no 6 weeks maternity leave over here. Thank God my husband and I both do this so he can do a majority of the tasks.

Ain't that the truth.
NO way Jose... 70 years old and keeping it interesting.

I'm a single mom. I'm loving your videos. They're the kick in the ass I need.

I am so grateful for your fireside chats. Thank you. Deepest gratitude 🙏
Appreciate you checking them out! I hope you are doing well over there!
Boy, are you an inspiration to anyone who is a reseller! Hard work pays off! I mentioned I post 20 items per day and I am going to increase that figure in hopes that sparks the algorithms.

It is nice to watch a person who is humble and down to earth and sincere in helping others to grow.
I did 120 a day by myself. I did 250 once I started hiring help
Love the comment 'people at the bottom compete.... people at the top collaborate!'
Crab in a bucket mentality a lot of the time
Tech , dude , super appreciate you sharing your journey, success, …… very inspiring…… We been selling on ebay for about 2 years , crossed over 6 figures last year…… then found your channel……. I been watching all videos ……. Very much grateful for you sharing your knowledge with us
Appreciate that! I hope the information is helpful. Congrats on passing six figures, that's huge!
Thanks man. I'm 3 months in. Just building the foundation of my ebay empire. Thanks for the KNOWLEDGE! 220 listed 100 sold $3.3K. List 2 until I sell 2 and then push to 5/5.

Your a complete inspiration mate. Thank you from the bottom of my Soul for sharing your stories 🙏
My pleasure, I hope it's helpful to somebody some where, some how.
I’ve only been reselling for about the last year. Love your videos and the knowledge you share. Glad you decided to start making videos! Can’t believe you were lying in the cut for such a long time! 😂
I was in the cut for a mighty long time lol. Appreciate you checking out the video!
One of a kind. I admire your business sense but most of all stepping up and raising your son as a single Dad.
My biggest accomplishment of course!
this is that Monday Motivation I needed!

More challenging to do it single handedly. Going solo takes sacrifice and aggressive action. Having team players changes the whole dynamics. I salute those who do it Alone!
Definitely. I was solo for over 10 years. Salute
Tech you are such a great teacher and mentor. I’m so glad I found your group.
Thanks so much, trying my best. This is kind of outside my wheelhouse. Learning every day. Hope it's helpful to you!
Got emosh at the end there. I feel the same. Struggles and doing stuff alone without help builds character. It's made me want to give back too in later life because I know my path would have been easier had I known then what I know now ❤❤ passing down knowledge is a lost art.
If I get hit by a bus, it's all gone. Got to document it. Thanks for checking out the video Jack
Thanks Tech! "..Eventhough it's a dream job it's still a job..", drop of good wisdom. This stays with me so I don't complain about listing so much.
It could always be worse. We could be digging ditches. Thankful & grateful.
Success isn't easy. It takes a lot of work. You have to have an excellent work ethic to build up a business of anything you do. It's hard work! All these young people doing reselling were misguided.

You get everything for free? lol. 100k in sales 13% on fees no promotions & what about shipping? 75k? sheesh
The fact you are so humble and kind - well speaks volumes. I'm finding it SO hard to find things in a small city in Australia in a very saturated market of resellers. It is not what it was 10 or so years ago at all wherever I would be in Australia. Thank you!
Definitely. Everything changes. We have to pivot as well as the times change.
The whole part about community...
Yes. I get it. My personality has eschewed community my whole life. At my mid 40s I realized how very wrong I have been.
Oh how I wish I had learned earlier.

Thanks Melissa, keep fighting the good fight, you are doing great!
I’m ready to wash my hands before handling new and washed inventory to take photos for listings lol
This is the way!
2 Bombs dropped: 1. People on the bottom compete, people at the top collaborate. That's deep man. I would love to meet resellers in the Houston area. There is enough business for all of us. 2.

Thanks to your content, I imagine a world where, even during economic hardship, reselling can hopefully out-compete fast fashion.. which means more of the pie for everyone involved and willing to put in the work!
In addition, reselling is so difficult because we have to wear all the hats inside of our businesses. Accounting, book keeping, accounts receivable, buying, billing, advertising, shipping, logistics, etc etc etc
You have been always there for me and every time I doubt myself you come back with a video like this !!!! I am extremely grateful for you and your support! Thank you Tech
Hey Tere! Hope you are doing well over there, great to see you
Thank you Tech!! I can relate to the isolation and not having community of like minded people just listening to you helps my motivation to keep reaching my goals. So thank you!! You are appreciated more than you will ever know❤
Thanks Tina! Appreciate you checking out the video I hope it's helpful
I can’t believe I’m seeing this right now 😮! Tech!! I am shocked you started a RUclips channel. Just stumbled across this video. Love this !
For those of you who aren’t familiar with Tech, this is one of the most genuine, generous human beings I’ve ever met. I’ve learned soooo many lessons over the years from this dude. Used to be in his reseller group as Brandon Lee. God bless you, buddy!
I remember. Hope all is well bro
Nice and simple, but on point and inspiring 🙏🏼
Thanks my man, keep up the good work
Thanks for saying it is hard. I think we don't give ourselves credit for how hard we work to make our business successful.
It's hard due to all the hats we have to wear. Logistics, photography, buying, promotions, accounting, etc etc etc. & it never stops. 24 hours a day.
But well worth it.
Finding success is hard and does not come overnight. I've been part-time on eBay since 1999 and it supplemented my income during college then into my career. During the pandemic I changed gears decided to make my full-time job part-time and turn eBay into a full-time income. A lot of local ebay resellers that just started have asked me how I make it look so easy. I tell them it's not that it's easy it's that I've built up 25 years of experience in this. I'm still learning and adapting to changes on the platform.
Congratulations on your over night success!!!! lol
No matter what the season is, the vital things we should have is the mindset, tenacity, and perseverance. Thank you for always motivating us. - zally oren
Thank you for checking out the video I hope you found some value
Always!
As with life, in general, the ability and willingness to adapt to change, is key.
Absolutely is.
Really no words to describe the amount of respect and appreciation I have for you tech, keep winning the game of life mi amigo :)!!!!
Playing the game the best I can. I appreciate you checking out the video this week.
That is exactly our business model, we have a great relationship with one vendor , we spend at least 10K per month , so they know we are good and will take all, as long as we like the merchandise
Nice work!
Not sure when but in the past years you said on one of the Reseller's Nirvana podcasts "Expect summer slowdown for the next 3 years". I took it seriously and now I'm doing O.K.. If I hadn't taken it seriously, I wouldn't be in business today. Greetings from Hungary, and thanks for everything!
I remember that one lol. Good work! Congrats on your success.
I completely agree people that are really successful are really generous and willing to share knowledge ❤
I am starting to meet truly successful people and they have been extremely generous.
Thank you for continuing to boost us up.
My pleasure. It's tough, always here to help.
Videos are real and great. I know this has nothing to do with anything but I think it's so cool you have a lawn care business cause I have for 20 years and done well, but my real passion is to become a full time reseller. So I can relate to your journey in a different way but it's motivating to me. Intrigues me how you have passion for lawn care business and reselling. I think the most important lesson is your internal drive has to be relentless to make it. No one can stop "you" but you. If you get that concept I think anyone can succeed. Your living proof. Great motivation and advice
I agree with that you. You have to have some fight in you. Good luck out there!
Thanks Tech Needed This Today I'm in Year 3 as Full time reseller still hanging on the struggle bus
Great to see you Seth, got to get off the struggle bus my man
I love how humble you are yet so willing to help people ❤
That's the mission, if I can help one person, it'll be mission accomplished.
The perfect answer tech. We can all make money. I was told at a garage sale once I was competition so the other guy wouldnt say if a video game was good or not when I asked him. This is after I let him dig through a box that I was already digging through.
The money is already printed for everybody
If you want to go fast, go alone. If you want to go far, go together.
As they say
My friend who is in a card scene always get a table at card shows. One thing he said that surprised me is he said the reason why he gets a spot at card shows is because he is not there to sell cards, he is there to buy cards. He brings minimal cards to sell to having a full table. That was genius.
Good thinking right there
i'm good your operations looks fantastic amazing what hard work and faith can do 👏🏻👏🏻
Appreciate you checking out the video Tony! Hope it provides some value
Tears were running down a little throughout the video. Hit close to home for sure.
Hope it's helpful. Thank you for checking out the video I appreciate you
I have listened to you for years am going to join your group within the next week and am so excited!@@technsports
IM JUST GETTING STARTED!!!
Let's go!
Thank you so much! I can’t even tell you how much you I look forward to your post! You have made so many things click for me. I will become a better seller!!!
Let's do it!
Selling a relationship is a very interesting way i would have never thought of. Thank you, sir!!!
Great take away from that chat. There is a reason why he's the #1 pre owned shoe seller on ebay and most likely the world. Few million bucks just on ebay, thankful he spent some time with us
Thank you for all the knowledge.
My pleasure, thank you for checking out the video, hope it was helpful!
Building community and collaborating can only be done at the top - which you stated. You were a lone wolf because you had to be. Someone in the group lives near me and I figured out his spots - it is taking everything in me not to destroy him. There are no friends in this game. You are only helping your competitors. I'm glad you're at the top and can give out info - it has changed my life for the better. I Just bought a house for my large family on ebay money alone - I have you to thank for that.
Congrats on the house, that's huge!
Heyyyy you said janky! Lol this is a great message you’ve sent out onto RUclips. 100% truth
I'm going to work it into my vocabulary after my wife has said it so many times and you said it on the podcast lol. 10/10 adjective
Job of the buyer is to solve the sellers problem which is the definition of true salesmanship
So true! Fill the void
Always appreciate your wisdom brotha!
Thank you for checking out the video I hope you enjoyed it and found it helpful someway somehow
@@technsports You are a living legend!
Thanks Tech, great walk and talk video. Grateful for your wisdom. From Oz. 🇦🇺
Thank you for checking out the video from down under!

Hey Tech , I have been watching more of your vids and when you said “ some of the money, all the time is better than all of the money, some of the time” I had to write that down on my legal pad that i use for my newly listed items. I wrote it on the back of the pad to remind myself and that it’s better to go for the fast nickel than the slow dime. And it really makes sense. I think when I list my items I always tend to go with what the median is and in all reality, eBay buyers are looking for a deal.. I’m starting to be a little bit more smarter with promoted listings and really researching the item to really pinpoint what it might be worth than what I think it’s worth.. anyway, tarapeak helps a ton.. thanks man appreciate it , and I really enjoy watching the videos
Appreciate you checking out the videos. You can build a great business around any model. Fast nickel, slow dime, etc. Just different techniques for each.
Technically speaking flipping your money as fast as possible will lead to the most money in the bank at the end of the day
the REAL DEAL ,love it
Appreciate you checking out the video Alex! Hope it's helpful
Thank you as well, Tech.
My pleasure. Thank you for checking out the video, hope you are doing well Chris
This man is the STRAIGHT TRUTH…👏👏👏👏 If anyone has the gift to uplift its Mr TECH… You are a blessing man and rightfully deserves 50+ retirement vacations. Your videos always pop up at the right time. Thanks Tech..Many Blessings to you and your family 💚💚
Appreciate you checking out the video Nay! Hopefully the chats can help somebody some where.
Thanks tech. I did retail arbitrage of Crocs for the holiday with a Black Friday deal and coupon. I listed for much less than retail and didn’t sell much. Turns out Crocs is selling on eBay with free shipping! While their price was not as cheap as I bought for, it was a price I could not make profit on. 2020 - sold a lot of HBA from couponing for those not going into CVS and Walgreens. Now out of that segment
Yes a lot of really big brands have ebay stores. Best Buy, Adidas, Reebok have all had ebay stores
So funny, I was just sitting here thinking about the struggle … and this video popped up. Yes, you’re exactly right. My sales are so slow. I try so hard with all your advice and others I listen, but there is. HUGE Learning curve here. This consumes me. I use most of my free time trying to educate myself. I joined your group in November. Doing better than before that but rarely have a day that I sell more than a few items. Some days are tough. I have an enormous amount of respect for you and so many others in the group. Reselling is my second job but my goal is to make it my first.
Hey Lynda, you're right, it's a marathon not a sprint. It's going to take time to fully grasp everything needed to get the business off the group & to success.
Tech, such an inspiration. Enjoy the content that you share, but even more so, sharing the reality of the day-to-day grind and commitment that it takes to be successful, it is so useful and needed. You're not getting views by trying to pitch the hype of reselling, but rather, sharing first hand knowledge of methods you used to be successful, that work. Even if it's not glamorous. Happy for your success. And best wishes on the next leg of your journey! Keep putting out videos!
Not glamorous but very lucky for the opportunity we have & we can't let it pass
Hello Tech I’m one of those that started in 2020 and enjoying every moment of reselling been growing every year since I do work full time at a job hopefully one day I could take this reselling to a full time spot thank you for all your encouragement from your videos
Let's go! Great job Steve!
Respect from the 🇫🇴

Thank you!! Another great video! 🙏🙏Having that work ethic is everything. I bet your Mom is proud of you. I was a single Mom too.
Unsung heroes!! Thank you
It is crucial in life to surround ourselves with like minded individuals. Iron sharpens iron🎯 We are the sum of the 5 people we surround ourselves with!
Thank you Tech!
Hey Dawn, appreciate you checking out the video. I hope it's helpful and I agree
Thanks for the inspiration. Thank you for being true to reality. Easy money ain't good and good money ain't easy. Challenge is, we can still make money on Ebay but ain't easy.
100%
Just good stuff all the way around. Always eager to view the next video, even after a long day at the office. Can’t say it enough, you’re so genuine and real. Thank you for sharing your wisdom and knowledge. Appreciate your willingness and time.
My pleasure, thank you for checking out the videos. I hope they help in some way shape or form!
Thank you for always keeping it real Tech. Appreciate you.
My pleasure Gabriel. Thank you for checking out the video
Great content!
Appreciate you checking out the video!
We appreciate your insight & wisdom! Why are you retiring? The resellers community need you 😢
Been busting it every single day for 15 years. I've invested wisely & have multiple streams of income that afford a very fortunate life.
You know that scene in Forest Gump when he just starts running? I reached that point.
