    This weekend of ebay sales was absolutely insane for me. My wife and I listed a ton of items near the end of last week and the sales started to roll in soon after that. You can't sell it if it isn't listed!
    Thanks for watching! :)

      @@kasandrabrown8611 for me it comes down to time & discipline. I work a full time job and only sell on the side. Thrifting and buying is also addicting. But I'm a firm believer that if you don't list it the same day you buy it, you will never have that level of interest or motivation to list it once it hits the death pile lol. I've also gotten in my jollies after having a great (for me) sales day and it's always after a bigger list day or a couple of listing days in a row. You would think that's enough motivation, but we're all human.

    Josh, I really enjoy your channel. You are so friendly and upbeat and I love how fast you talk and do things! I appreciate all of your tops and your transparency on ebay fees and COGS and taxes. My friends and family keep me stocked in boxes, bubble wrap, packing paper, and bubble mailers! Other than tape, I have never paid for shipping supplies. Others starting out might find that to be a good tip! 2nd tip I have to share is taping a tape measure to the front of my desk. Quick way to measure items for listings and to measure boxes when printing labels! I am pretty proud of that idea!!

I didn’t want to go home empty-handed so I figured since you sell a lot of shoes, I’m going to try that. Wish me luck! LOL.

    The golf haul seems to be going amazing for you, I may have missed it but I have you surpassed break even on the buy at this point? Really nice sales over the weekend. Thanks for all the content, really enjoy it. With the book being education material without ads I would have done Media Mail. I am not 100% that is within the rules but from how I understand them I feel it would be. It also depends on the difference in price, if it were only a dollar or 2 I probably would have just bumped it to priority anyway since media mail has been so slow recently

    I agree but MOST hats should go in a box especially if it has a structured/stiff crown - I do ship "floppy" hats in bubble mailers wrapped in tissue paper. My eBay listing template has a note in the description on how I'll ship so if they READ they know what to expect :-) Just rcv'd my 1st order of eBay 10x8x6 boxes. I'm pretty well stocked on my frequently used items so I thought I would check them out (as I mostly ship priority but do sell some book lots which ship media mail) and they are AWESOME! Saves me sourcing small AMZ boxes :-)

    Minute 9: small Blue Vise. At that size and weight a Med Flat Rate box would have been a good choice. On some vises, the end cap on the tightening handle unscrew,s, to slip the handle out, making it even smaller, so a Reg A might even have worked, but hard to beat Pirate Ship, but not all your viewers have accounts.
