My husband struggles with ADHD and being self-employed. His Dr. told him he had to stop saying .”I’m going to try. Or I’ll try.” Something about that phrase lowers the accountability (or something). He wants him to say I am going to. Or I will … 🤷🏻♀️
Our words are containers of power, I would even stop wearing the ADHD label like its a badge of honor. Not to be mean when I say that, but I want to have a positive confession over my life.
My husband struggled with ADHD and the older he got the worse his struggles were. He ended up losing his job, couldn't deal with it and ended his life. It is difficult for me to see someone make light of ADHD :(
I am sorry for your loss. A mans job is his identity when the job was gone I am sure that must have been hard on him. I hope you have good friends and family that are kind to you.
5:52 When I do a search for a specific item, I select to show cost + shipping = $ lowest to highest. The buyer most likely noted the total cost, including shipping. I wouldn't refund a shipping amount.
Dave, FYI on the rabbit.... They will chew on electrical wires and cause damage and death. I had a rabbit once that chewed really bad and was working on the refrigerator cord before we caught her. Just wanted to mention this . Love your channels, Trish from Ga
Hey Dave. I just started selling in Ebay AGAIN after a couple if years absence. I was old school Super Seller back in the good ol' days of Ebay. Have my first 15 items listed!! YAY. I ued yiur link and signed up for Vendoo. So tomorriw; if not tonight, I'll get started there. Thanks fir the Heads Up about opening Chrome. Going with just Ebay, Mercari and FB. Etsy kinda high, holds your money and dies not Auto-delist. Would hit Dib-it but I sell 95% Jewelry. Thanks for yiur encouragement.
I have watched a bunch of channels and they are doing inventory now that it’s January. Perhaps you should consider having Mikey help you verify your inventory prior to cross listing again. I know you did a partial inventory already-so even if it is your comics that will give you peace of mind. I put my original list date in my sku because when I re-list stale items on Poshmark I prefer to track the OG date rather than resisting date.
There are people out there that repair and resell electronics, maybe you could sell the the ones that dont work as a lot. Put 2-4 like items together and sell them for part's or repair. Sometimes when the profits not there like you thought, you have to work a little harder to make your money.
5:55 I no longer refund excess shipping. I did when I started. If the buyer agrees to it and pays it, it’s part of your income. Shipping is the hardest you work, most sales, so you shouldn’t feel guilty getting paid for it, in my opinion.
If you dont like having a boss id do everything you can to not lose your ebay account. You are getting into scary territory. I enjoy watching you and hope you get it all figured out. 😊
I enjoy your content and love seeing how well you and your family are doing! You might just need to take a breath, review your processes and adjust accordingly, conduct an inventory, and get the hang of Vendoo. Also make sure every one is on the same page when it comes to your processes and the applications you use. Blessings and continued success for 2024!
Selling on multi platform can be a headache. I did the same thing, sold one item on both platforms at the same time. What I learned to do is if I have more than one of same item. That is when I will cross list that item. If I have one it is listed just on one platform.
it took me two festive seasons to finally realise i could schedule listings over the period so i didnt have to work. All i had to do was send offers or accept etc. I felt so refreshed once i came back.
You need to go through everything that you relisted and physically mark it as it's in your stores. If you already sold a comic somewhere else who knows what else is already sold.
Good sale on the mixer, and the older ones, there are certain models made iconic by specific djs or time periods in hip-hop and are collectible for that reason, definitely something to keep an eye out for dave.
IMO you should probably fix your cross listing issue. You are making Vendoo look bad. People are saying to themselves man his cross listing thing is complicated if a big RUclips reseller has been talking about not being cross listed properly for what feels like a few months now.
Dave question, how go I set up my whatnot shipping profile to stop only shipping everything USPS PRIORITY MAIL.... I SELL Bundle deals for shoes. But every time they goes over five 5lbs. It's still Wants to ship it PRIORITY witch discourages my buyer from purchasing because the shipping really expensive. Which tells me it's still wants to ship a priority and not GROAND Advantage
On channels like this we learn how to pronounce words better. I learned that I've always pronounced "Lladro" incorrectly even though I took 6 years of Spanish (LOL). Thank you! I noticed you pronounced Illinois correctly in this video (kudos!). Perhaps check on the Christian Dior though. I don't even know if you mentioned it in this actual video because I'm binge watching you as I do mindless physical labor (it keeps the boredom at bay). Thanks to you Dave! :)
Nah, I think you mentioned Christian Dior in a video from 9 months ago. LOL (oopsie poopsie) . . . welp onto watching your next 9 month old video . . . I'm going back in time . . . since I only found your channel as of late . . .
When someone buys an item then they agree to the cost including shipping cost. I wouldn't refund the customer. What if it costs you more (As a seller) to ship an item? Do you charge the customer the extra shipping cost?
The customer know what they are paying for shipping and I do not give a refund. I make money on some and it makes up for some of the items i either broke even or lost $.
That item is probably going to take extra time and extra packing material to ship. Time is money. I would not refund shipping on that item. If it was a really easy item to pack and ship, I would consider a refund but not this case
It seems to me that a big part of the problem is you are spreading yourself too thin so you aren’t paying attention to the details that you must do so you don’t lose your account. I know you are trying to earn as much as possible to support your family, but maybe if you figure where your greatest resources of income are and drop the ones that you don’t earn as much or are not cost effective, maybe that would give you the time you need make sure these details that keep tripping you up are addressed so you don’t lose your accounts. It would be sad to see that happen. ❤ watching your videos, even Trash to Cash!
The fox ironically is dressed in the traditional riding outfit for the fox hunt in England. I think the hunts have been banned for animal cruelty. However they still continue Illegally.
I have a folder in my store that is not for markdowns. When I have items I don't want marked down I put them in that store. Also cross listing sucks....
Refund the shipping! They may look at you as a shady seller or reseller if you don't. And you could lose buyers! On listing items on multiply sites. It's simple.when you get notified that you sell something on one platform. You pull it off the other one's the second you get that notification.
His always got drama. That's part of the reason I watch or don't. Some of the titles his got have a click bait vibe. And I feel before he changed his channel name his video's were better. Now he complains about stuff all the time!

What works for me: "I want to."
How about a pad and pen next to your computer to jot down tasks like "delist the comic?" It may help with organization and avoiding cancelling orders.

Always keep the profit on shipping unless they ask about combined or a discount up front

Keep the extra shipping , It will offset the times you don't get enough to cover the cost .

I am so glad you tried the ‘by category’. I feel its the easiest way to put stock away as well as finding items.
Unless you move them 😅😅😅

Vendoo now has auto delist but just released a month or 2 ago
it took me two festive seasons to finally realise i could schedule listings over the period so i didnt have to work. All i had to do was send offers or accept etc. I felt so refreshed once i came back.
I appreciate the honesty. I screw something up daily either with actual job or reselling. I’m not perfect and respect the real.
Thanks
Happy New Year Dave. Regarding Nao, they were designed to be less expensive than Lladro so beware when buying them
Embrace the big items Dave embrace them
I got a red comfy for Christmas and I love it!
You need to go through everything that you relisted and physically mark it as it's in your stores. If you already sold a comic somewhere else who knows what else is already sold.
They enter into a contract with u when they buy something. I wouldn’t refund shipping and don’t think they expect you to!!
Good sale on the mixer, and the older ones, there are certain models made iconic by specific djs or time periods in hip-hop and are collectible for that reason, definitely something to keep an eye out for dave.
I sell on eBay, Mercari and Poshmark. I list each item myself. How would vendoo make me more sales? I will sign up if it really helps
With my own ADHD, I truly don't think I can handle cross listing. Not ready yet.😅
I make sure i make some on the shipping if its alot but i will refund them some of it
IMO you should probably fix your cross listing issue. You are making Vendoo look bad. People are saying to themselves man his cross listing thing is complicated if a big RUclips reseller has been talking about not being cross listed properly for what feels like a few months now.
Watching all of his videos makes me happy. I don't cross list
Lol I was totally thinking that
Honestly that is ONE of the reasons I haven’t started crosslisting.
Dave question, how go I set up my whatnot shipping profile to stop only shipping everything USPS PRIORITY MAIL.... I SELL Bundle deals for shoes. But every time they goes over five 5lbs. It's still Wants to ship it PRIORITY witch discourages my buyer from purchasing because the shipping really expensive. Which tells me it's still wants to ship a priority and not GROAND Advantage
Are you sure you want to ask ADHDave a technical question? Lol 😂
You should keep the extra money on shipping
Is it work if you love what you do?
I wish you would do away with free shipping. I feel like you lose money that way. Even people buying golf clubs expect to pay for shipping
On channels like this we learn how to pronounce words better. I learned that I've always pronounced "Lladro" incorrectly even though I took 6 years of Spanish (LOL). Thank you!

Actually, I don't watch . . . I listen . . . let's see how many times I can comment on my own comment . . .

New Year's Resolution: Finish the projects you start! ;)
Refund the $15 for shipping.
I had a question for everyone do you guys promote your eBay listings?
The customer know what they are paying for shipping and I do not give a refund. I make money on some and it makes up for some of the items i either broke even or lost $.
That item is probably going to take extra time and extra packing material to ship. Time is money. I would not refund shipping on that item. If it was a really easy item to pack and ship, I would consider a refund but not this case
I noticed you havent mentioned how much you paid for all those electronics.
vendoo lets you down again, you cancel orders every week, you need to slow down and pay attention.
It seems to me that a big part of the problem is you are spreading yourself too thin so you aren’t paying attention to the details that you must do so you don’t lose your account. I know you are trying to earn as much as possible to support your family, but maybe if you figure where your greatest resources of income are and drop the ones that you don’t earn as much or are not cost effective, maybe that would give you the time you need make sure these details that keep tripping you up are addressed so you don’t lose your accounts.

We need a “pure profit” ADHD t-shirt
Or " I can't find it" t-shirt
I always keep the extra
I have a folder in my store that is not for markdowns. When I have items I don't want marked down I put them in that store.
Also cross listing sucks....
Hey Oh!!!
Refund the shipping! They may look at you as a shady seller or reseller if you don't. And you could lose buyers! On listing items on multiply sites. It's simple.when you get notified that you sell something on one platform. You pull it off the other one's the second you get that notification.
Keep the $15 👌🏻
Never Ever refund shipping unless they ask for it, then maybe if you feel like it.
Maybe you can put items in alphabetical order.
No, I do not refund shipping...I figure it balances out when I'm charged a little more or give free shipping...
Keep up the hard work but have set hours. U can’t work 24/7
U no I sold on eBay for a few years. I never had the drama u say u have. Unsubscribe ur channel. To much drama.
His always got drama. That's part of the reason I watch or don't. Some of the titles his got have a click bait vibe. And I feel before he changed his channel name his video's were better. Now he complains about stuff all the time!
Hey next time u come to ct if u remember give u a private pic
