Best of luck with your new adventure!! I’m so glad you will continue 2 Old Guys! Thank you for adding the heartfelt message at the end and showing the pictures 🤗
I know I should be a better person and wish you well in your new adventure. I only want what is best for you. I am sad that the OSP channel is on hiatus. It’s like one of my children is leaving home. 😥
I can't say that I won't miss the videos. With there being so many youtube resellers, you are one of the few that I watch every video. Part of that is due to having actually met you in person and realizing how genuine you actually are. I will be watching the podcast, and anything you put out here. Good luck in pursuing your endeavors. Thanks for all you have done.
Glad I found your channel recently, and will miss your down to earth, humble and 'real' take on reselling. Blessings to you and your family in whatever you plan to do going forward.
I'm so glad I've been following you, you're the most genuine of resellers I've followed! I understand totally, life has definitely dealt me a challenging hand, and life is meant to change and transition. Let your heart guide your feet my friend!! Thank you for being there and being REAL! Take Care Chis.
Brother thank you !! Your one of my favorites , but I understand , I will remain in the grind making vids , but I always aspire to get to your channel level , I hope I can , holler at me anytime my friend , can’t wait to be back with you and Caleb on the pod ! Peace and love -RTP
I will miss your content and constructive hints. I learn something new every episode: items to look for “out in the wild”; listing and packing advice; and how to manage inventory. It’s so important to take a break and focus on faith, family and other opportunities. I (along with thousands of other watchers) wish you the best and hope that you return to the channel. But, I am so grateful to have found your channel and look forward to more episodes of the podcast with Caleb. Thank you for sharing your story and for helping me become a better reseller in the process. Best wishes to you and your family. ❤
Please don't feel badly about a decision that was made in prayer. You know we will continue to support you truly hope you and Shannon let me know if there is anything I can never help with can ever help with.
Thanks for sharing. I really love your channel. Your love and dedication to your family have not gone unrecognized. Whatever opportunity has come your way, I know you will succeed beyond measure. Take care of yourself, and I look forward to your future videos. ❤
Great advise. May have to try that myself. Prayers to you, your family, and your chance to pursue your dream. Thank you for all the great videos. We are here for you.
I thought when they made offers they automatically paid? Thats how all mine are now...they have to have a credit card on file prior to offer. No problems anymore with non payers...
I totally understand about lawn equipment part I purchased 155 Briggs & Stratton Lawnmower Parts for $40 my first item was a carburetor and it sold for $48.50 I made profits after first sales. I like bulk purchases. Enjoyed the show Hope November is a busy month for everyone.
Nothing but the best for you and your family Chris. I hope pursuing this new venture for you will work out and it's something that will make you happy and fulfill your dreams man. I quit doing videos a long time ago just because I had other stuff in my life that I wanted to pursue more and frankly, more important to me and my family. I have thought about making a few videos from time to time but ultimately it's harder to come back and do videos again then I thought. Seriously, I hope nothing but the best for you all.
Thank you for sharing all your knowledge with the community. I wish you and your family the best. You didn't say what the new opportunity was..? Whatever it is I hope it works out for you. Bless you and your family.
Thank you all for sharing prayers for you and the family and your decisions of what you're getting into may God's blessings be with you all in the name of Jesus Christ
Another good video. As to Besst Offers, I do have it on and it produces some sales and some duds - I accept them if reasonably close, counter if we're a bit a part and flat out deny any low ball offers. I like that it stimulates activity and I think Ebay's algorithm likes to see that (though I don't know it for a fact). I do send eligible offers throughout the day - the closer to when it hits the better in hopes the potential buyer won't find the same item elsewhere in the meantime. I've gotten some hits and counteroffers on those as well so we'll keep doing it. Thanks for sharing your knowledge with the rest of us and have a great 4Q23!!
I can respect that that you're not just going to take people's money and I don't mean that in a negative way I mean that in a humble way that you have respect for your audience. I off and on listen to your channel I didn't know the struggles you went through in your past having a 3-year-old that is diagnosed with autism I feel for you. Hopefully in December when you get refreshed and you want to come back I would like to see my name on yourself but you have to be right with you for your mental and family well-being.
😢 You are my favorite you tube and have taught me so much. I already wanted to tell you that touching an item may really work, ha, ha. But now I'm sad and glad for you. Good bless!
Chris we all love you and you do alot for others as well. While we will miss your videos, we understand. I know I will keep watching the podcast and look forward to any videos you will put back out later. Burnout is real and can be hard to overcome. Self care is extremely important. Best of luck and look forward to seei g you again.
Not taking membership fees shows your integrity. Take your time Chris. Do what is right for you and your family. If you never return, it is what it is. God doesn't make mistakes and as much as we don't understand, everything happens for a reason. I hope you are able to get some fishing time in too. Take care brother.
I do not use best offer due to time it takes to deal with low ballers and those that will not pay. I just reduce prices and run coupons on some categories. I also do not like coupons because the coupon get added immediately to my new listings.
I thought I would write & apologize for being so selfish yesterday. I truly understand your need to take a break & get involved with new opportunities. I only want the best for you and your family. I hope you rest, spend time with your family & take advantage of your new opportunities. I’ll see you over on Two Old Guys.
I just saw that I had a refund and thought it looked like your subscription charge. I’m sad but understand and know you have to do what’s best for you. Thanks for everything Chris!
I turned mine off because I got tired of taking offers an it sits there nobody pays so I cancel it. I wish eBay made them pay when they take offer. It’s not fair to us because it takes the product off eBay nobody else can buy it.
You will be missed for however long you decide to take a break, but I will definitely be looking forward to the podcast episodes. We all need a break from time to time. Good for you for pursing whatever opportunities come your way.
I’m going to miss your content. Because I love your videos. But I wish you the best in your future endeavors. As always I’ll be praying for you and your family. Good luck and see when you post.
I sent a best offer on an action figure lot last week and part of the offer process was I had to specify a payment method. Payment to be charged immediately if the seller accepted my offer. And he did. So I thought the whole offer system was fixed. But since then I have accepted several best offers and had to wait and wait for payment. So I guess it's fixed for some people?
I've had BIN and best offer on every item since day 1. I've had very few non payers, I'd say less than a dozen. I receive offers often, and yes any activity is good. I see no reason not to have offers on.
Thank you for all that you do good luck in whatever you decide to do. As far as eBay, I do have to always keep best offers on and promote at 2 percent. It works for me but to each their own.
Thank you Chris for all you have done for this channel and the community. Think i saw the channel membership thing and you had 1 said i will gladly be 2nd and did it. Loved your channel your family and most of all what you do best is just being you!! Use to love watching the videos and see my box or tote pulled and your shoutouts were awesone to see bc you didnt personally know me but knew from the comments and sponsorship who i was. Wish you nothing but the best in life and also nothing but the Best with your family!!!! Ill be here when or if you come back as will many others its not always all about the numbers its the loyalty within the community that makes us all live for you and along with you. Seems like friends or family we never knew we had and we all in it together. Nothing but love praise and anything else i can think of You and your family always were and will be an awesome part of my life. Wish you the Best and best wishes to the family also!!!! Always gonna be 1 of my favs bc you did what you did best just being you. A good ol boy wanting to sell whatevr whenever to whoever wants it. Until next time my friend!!!! Jason aka Marc.
With my back problems and two hospitals stealing from me wasn't bad enough... They cut my rehab in half...one refused to do it at all...setting me back a whole year... People were asking me how much faith I put into my recovery... The insurance isn't covering physical rehab in any manner with me... it's all self help...I get a few backwards sessions to my successful ones...but I need that spotter... Some of the doctors were great...but the majority of them were just pill pushing duds... My back surgeon should have gotten a medal for his job in catching the L4 disintegration and L3 and 5 cracks...
I know that I'm at a 95% clip in giving the free offers out including one where I mistook a graphics card for the model under it and put the low-ball bid in... (It was a bargain - $170 - for the card I was looking for had it been a plain RX 6600... It was a ripoff for the RX 6600XT model by about $175 and I still thought it was a bid for the original RX 6600...)
It sounds like you're headed back to prison for a while! I mean going back to your old "job". They'll be plenty of mountain dew out here when you get released. Otherwise you could just be converting your ebay shed into an arcade gameroom business that will open its doors early in 2014. Whatever the case I will miss your videos and hearing you say "hello hello hello, I'm chris the old school picker" ... 😢
You were my biggest channel inspiration and I just now finally caught up to where you were when I started. I wish you all be best in the future!
Best of luck with your new adventure!! I’m so glad you will continue 2 Old Guys! Thank you for adding the heartfelt message at the end and showing the pictures 🤗

You will be missed! I wish you all the love and luck you deserve in life! I for one will always be here when you get back!

How can I read your comments and have your voice of how you would say it in my head. 😅
I will miss your content and constructive hints. I learn something new every episode: items to look for “out in the wild”; listing and packing advice; and how to manage inventory.

I will miss these videos! Hopefully, we can really burn the house down on the podcast! You guys are an awesome family! Love ya, brother!
Hope you are doing good. Miss your regular videos.
Cheers,
Julien
Best of luck ol’ pal. You are one of the real ones.
Thanks for sharing. I really love your channel. Your love and dedication to your family have not gone unrecognized. Whatever opportunity has come your way, I know you will succeed beyond measure. Take care of yourself, and I look forward to your future videos. ❤
That’s the only way I list “ with best offer” nobody bugs me
Great advise. May have to try that myself.
Prayers to you, your family, and your chance to pursue your dream.
Thank you for all the great videos. We are here for you.
I thought when they made offers they automatically paid? Thats how all mine are now...they have to have a credit card on file prior to offer. No problems anymore with non payers...
that's how it is with most of my offers, but some of them I still have to wait until the buyer goes in and manually pays.
Can’t thank you enough for all the times you’ve answered my questions and helped us out. Hope you find what your looking for and Godspeed my friend.
I'm so glad I've recently found your channel. You need to do what's best for you and your family. Good luck!!!❤

i dont accept offers since i already set my prices lower than most sellers.
Oh my my …. I just got the opportunity to watch this video…. Chris, may God bless you and keep you in all of your endeavors.
If Mercari can make offer payments instant, there is no reason that eBay can't make it happen.
Thank you for sharing all your knowledge with the community. I wish you and your family the best.
You didn't say what the new opportunity was..? Whatever it is I hope it works out for you. Bless you and your family.
NOOOOOOOOOO! We love your videos..so chill and calming, and so positive! The shipping vids recently are all-timers and you will be missed!
Oh gosh, I just found you not long ago. I wish you well & good luck with all your future adventures. God bless.❤️
Best of luck to you dude. Thank you so much for all the information. You did an awesome job 👍
I appreciate it!
You will be missed. You are a great person, and God loves you! Good luck in your future adventures.😊

Good luck in your new pursuits Chris. Will look forward to the return of your channel whenever the time is right.
I hope you get some much needed rest and hope everything goes well 😊 Thank you Chris for everything!
😢 You are my favorite you tube and have taught me so much.
I already wanted to tell you that touching an item may really work, ha, ha.
But now I'm sad and glad for you. Good bless!
We will always be here for you Chris!
Chris we all love you and you do alot for others as well. While we will miss your videos, we understand. I know I will keep watching the podcast and look forward to any videos you will put back out later. Burnout is real and can be hard to overcome. Self care is extremely important. Best of luck and look forward to seei g you again.
Do a Christmas video when you come back here...please...
See you over at the podcast wishing you all the best and blessings on your new adventure bell always on
This is weird. I got a notification saying my membership was expiring….???? I’m resubscribing but I don’t understand it
Not taking membership fees shows your integrity. Take your time Chris. Do what is right for you and your family. If you never return, it is what it is. God doesn't make mistakes and as much as we don't understand, everything happens for a reason. I hope you are able to get some fishing time in too. Take care brother.
God bless you my friend!
Nooooooo!!!! Chris, sure going to miss you and your family videos, enjoyed watching you so much but I do wish you the best!
Humble, well done. We'll be here.
Thank you for the videos. I'm going to miss them. I have learned a lot about reselling. You are awesome. Thanks fellow Tennessean TNfinds Megan
Thank you for all you have done for this community! Love the videos & hope to see you back soon, God Bless!

I feel like he wants to pursue ministry
I just saw that I had a refund and thought it looked like your subscription charge. I’m sad but understand and know you have to do what’s best for you. Thanks for everything Chris!
Take care of yourself during your break. I hope you find a video schedule that works for you in the near future. ❤

Very enjoyable! New Subscriber! Please stay connected! 🌺🌸🌺
I wish you good luck!!!
Hello I do except offer because I don’t get a lot of sales I’m a part time reseller ?
You can also send those offers out, no need to way and hope the buyer will send them.
I’m new to your channel. You going in the ministry?
MAYB U CAN FIND TIME TO GET THAT ONE SPOT PAINTED ,,GOOD LUCK IN WHATEVER U GOT BREWING
What is your prodcast or other channel?
The other channel is called two old guys reselling podcast
Follow where God leads brother! Wish you all the best!
Well dang is there going to be another meet up next year? 😢😢😢😢
i hope so!
Take that needed break. We all need change sometimes. 👍🙏☺️
Please come back
One day, maybe..... Lot going on at the moment. I do miss all my wonderful viewers though! Thanks friend!
I know that I'm at a 95% clip in giving the free offers out including one where I mistook a graphics card for the model under it and put the low-ball bid in...

No jokes from the peanut gallery about Chris missing a few bits...
It sounds like you're headed back to prison for a while! I mean going back to your old "job". They'll be plenty of mountain dew out here when you get released.

eBay sales were in the toilet for most of October. Really ugly.
👍
