    Hot take, but I think the 30 day return window on eBay is way too lenient (60 days is absurd). If you're buying pre-owned clothing and measurements and flaws are disclosed, you shouldn't be able to return it. Maybe a week max. That's the one thing I don't want to deal with on eBay.

    • @ghostlyMostly1
      @ghostlyMostly1 2 месяца назад +4

      I agree on the length of time. They could wear the item multiple times during that period. A week is plenty of time for them to inspect it and try it on.

      You’re not wrong. It’s nuts. That being said, even though I get returns and they’re annoying, it’s not that bad. And sometimes people open returns and don’t actually take the time to return the item, which is my favorite lol.

    As a men’s clothing reseller, I love watching resellers turn their noses up at AE, gap, Uniqlo, h&m, banana republic, and J crew jeans. There are some hidden gems in this brands based on esthetic/style, size, selvedge, Japanese denim to just name a few things that sell for good money and typically fast. If you can find gap 1969 selvedge or Japanese denim jeans, they can easily sell for $40+ and have a high STR.

    As a kid with a hard to pronounce name, I always dreaded the initial attendance call because the teacher would inevitably pronounce it wrong in the worst way and I would hear the snickers from the other students. It made me use to hate my name, but now I own it. I really appreciate your deference to your student’s feelings.

    • @beckyparkco
      @beckyparkco  2 месяца назад +1

      Yes to this!!! Kids’ names are so important-it’s part of their identity. That first few days is always hard when you have a new class, but what really pissed me off were teachers who just never took the time to learn how to say kids’ names properly. “It’s too hard” would be their excuse. Well, then, don’t come at your students when they don’t learn scientific terms or the names of dead people from the history books-“it’s too hard.”

    Hi Becky! I’ve been on eBay for a few years now but I’ve been curious about something and curious if you know - if I list and item and mark I’d ship using priority mail and have the buyer pay for that, then when I go to ship if I decide to do Ground Advantage instead, is there any penalty? For instance, on the naturalizer boots you shipped, eBay said they paid $12 for priority mail shipping but it was cheaper to do Ground Advantage so you shipped it that way. Just curious if I run into that situation in the future! Love the video and hot tips!

    Now, I need to try this time away the way you did it 🤯 I haven’t seen anyone do it this way; or at least show how to do it. This would be helpful while away on my anniversary trip next weekend!

    • @beckyparkco
      @beckyparkco  2 месяца назад +1

      Yeah-I just guess that they won’t be too far from me due to the fact that I’m in the center of the US. But anytime something ships to your neck of the woods or Alaska or something like that, it is more expensive. With you being in CA, the best thing is probably to use calculated shipping, which does usually charge the buyer more, but the cost is based on where they live versus you charging a flat price regardless of their location.

      I’m going to be 1000% honest with you-I do this all the time and have never had anyone say anything about it. HOWEVER, again, I think it helps that I’m in the Midwest. Even with ground shipping, my items get to people really fast. A lot of people will say you shouldn’t change it from priority to ground, and they’re probably right, but again, I’m just being honest. That being said, the smartest thing to do would be to select ground shipping on everything when you create your listing bc it really is going to be the cheapest way to ship at least 80% of the time.
