Hi! My name is Mel (aka) Back from Burnout! And if you’re a reseller wanting to learn how to sell on eBay and how I run a successful eBay business selling second hand items from the thrift store then this is DEFINITELY the place for YOU! On this channel, I upload 2-3 videos a week surrounding topics such as tips for selling on eBay and how to make money selling stuff on eBay. I help you get a better understanding of what it's like being a full time eBay reseller and I'll show you what I do all day as a eBay reseller in my weekly reselling vlogs. And I basically answer any and all questions any eBay resellers may have who are looking to grow their eBay business!
Technically this is WHY you cleared your warehouse. If it wasn’t sorted out you wouldn’t have been able to take these books probably. An empty space is always there to be filled hahaha😂
Yes! Imagine if I had piled all this on top of what I’d had!
When I was a chef, sometimes the order tickets came in non-stop on Friday and Saturday nights. You could hear the printer just printing and printing, and you were afraid to even look to see how many new tickets were hanging from the machine. It's common for cooks to have nightmares about the printer. The only thing you could do was focus and keep working, there was no other way out. It was the best and hardest lesson.
Wow. I never thought of it like that. I often compliment the chef before leaving a restaurant. I know they work hard for little gratitude.
@@backfromburnout Bravo to you!
@@backfromburnout That's such a nice thing to do, Mel. I'm not surprised at your generosity of spirit.😇
I still think one or two rolling shelves would be handy for when you get big hauls. It would give more vertical storage when processing and then you can shove them out of the way when not in use.
Right on! A procedure for new hauls that doesn't include multiple handling of the same items. Every time you do something, ask yourself if there's a better way.
Beautiful job Mel! I want to say this, you are a great example for your children. I was a single parent to one and most night after my son went to bed, I was finnishing my paper work, I was an insurance agent. My son remembers the hard work that I put in. He is now 54.
Thank you. 🩷
wow excellent comment you made about your son.
"PROCECCING quickly, efficiently and straight away" A great quote. I am still loving this new idea. Quicly process inventory. "Reset to zero" I love the clean slate. Your are inspiring me and my wife to change how we so a number of things.
I love that! It’s working for me and sales are right up because of it!
YOU ARE A ROCKSTAR🌟You're showing everyone that IT CAN BE DONE 👍

Mel your outlook on reselling has changed so much. Currently I’m in a rehab facility with the 17th of January making it a full year of rehab and almost a 18 months since I had my wreck. You have become one of the probably one of the top 5 RUclipsr’s that I really look forward to looking for and or waiting for a new video every day. Wish you could put out a video every day. I don’t know how much of it is the beautiful Dow nto earth is that’ll beautiful voice I love hearing or a combination of just a beautiful woman and voice.
The amazing work you’ve accomplished since I started watching you (and I honestly don’t remember or know how I stumbled across your channel) has been an
inspiration to me to get started selling again. The rehab facility admin has given
Me permission to start my store back in my room. I don’t know how well it’s going to work.
I’m going to start out with just my phone and Bluetooth printer I just purchased and trying to figure out the scales I want that doesn’t have any cables to it and just uses batteries. In fact I want have any lightning in the room except room light and a little sunlight.
I always liked postcards and have a box of them about 35 years old in my possession but were old, old when I bought them and it’s a 1000 cards in it and I’ve purchased another couple of thousand books start I’m getting ready to start listing.
I’m also going to list my die cast cars I had plus some I’ve been buying along with coins, paper money, and a little gold and silver bullion. You’re hard work getting organized has really inspired me to want to get started selling again and just have it smalls while I’m in here. That way I want have to stock but a few sizes of small boxes and they allegedly won’t look for cash bills shipped in an envelope. Any rate I’ve rambled to much (it’s 3:30 a.m.) for this time of the night and it’s probably day time there.
Keep up the good work, great spirit you have, to influence us.
Sending love and hopefully good vIbes your way for the influence to work harder. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
That’s so nice of Jess to give you all of her books 😊
So lovely. She was awesome and so nice to meet a local girl.
You did it, Mel! You now have the processes in place to accommodate a large haul. I’m sure Tech will be very proud of you! Thank you for continuing to inspire me. 😘
Wow! What an amazing haul. Great work on processing everything! Great little karaoke session you've given us too 😅👍
Thank you so much 😁 Sorry to make everyone’s ears bleed LOL
Amazing job sticking it out to the end. It would be great to get occasional updates on the sell through - sucess or challenges of this haul.
Well done.
This is our life in the book exchange.
You're right about what meets the metrics "is it worth listing or did anyone want it on marketplace"
Mel that was INCREDIBLE!!! I am so proud of you. You kicked that haul's a%*. What a pleasure to watch your accomplishments. 😊
Wow… when I first saw your haul I was like what the heck are you doing? But you showed us all how you can process things quickly - that was really impressive!
Thank you!
This level of hard work and dedication deserves a sub from me! I'm a vintage clothing and hard goods seller so not in your niche( I do love selling vintage books though) and I can totally appreciate the level of labor you put into your business cos it's similar with clothing! You really inspired me to not let those death piles pile up! Great job!! Your work space/warehouse looks amazing!
I love that you left the singing clips in! That’s exactly what I sound like when I’m in the zone, working and singing to music. 😆
Congrats! SO impressive and inspirational Mel!! Great job and thanks for sharing! ✌
So proud of you!!! That was so great to see!! You did it!! And thanks for leaving the singing in, it made me laugh out loud! I am glad you took the trip to the US or I would not have found your channel! Great job and video!!
Great job, Mel. ❤ I love your system and positive attitude. X
So impressive, Mel!! You are an inspiration to us all!😀❤️ Congrats!!
Thom is such a nice guy to help you like that. He's a keeper for sure.
Hey Mel! Great work. I'm here watching and feeling anxious with you!
The end result though is amazing. 😮 The way it looked from when Ross and I visited you at your warehouse in October, to how it looks now is just incredible. Congratulations girl, you have every reason to be so proud of yourself! ❤❤
Happy New Year Mel. It's been a journey but here we are. Thanks for being there. All the best for 24 xxx hugs cheri
AMAZING! You are totally crushing it. You motivate me so much as I try to clean my space and get things done!
I like that you call it "reset to zero." And I could definitely see, when you get a haul (of any size) in, how exciting it can be to challenge oneself to get back to zero again, especially if someone is pretty competitive in general. Personally, I like gamifying tasks - in other words I make it a game and compete with myself to win the game. In this case, the goal of the game is to both start and end with everything reset to zero.
This "reset to zero" method could work in so many situations, not just reselling! Cleaning house is one example. Purging clothes one doesn't wear anymore from the closet is another. Paying off bills... and so on. Thanks for sharing your process. It was inspiring to watch!
Oh, and the heck with all those resellers who think that a death pile is necessary to succeed. That is so twisted.
I appreciate you passing on the knowledge you have learned. great tips on Processing and listing. Going to put that into effect on my ebay items
You got this! Your space is organized. You have a system. Go, Mel!!!
Your singing had me giggling! Way to go rockstar!!! You did the punishment and it was way less overwhelming than having to deal with months worth of hauls set aside. You’re killing it 🙌🏼
Whoop, Whoop!!!🎉🎉🎉
Nicely done Mel! Can't imagine the initial overwhelming feeling coming over you, it came over me just watching and how satisfying to see it set back to zero!!! Great video!❤
Great job tackling that haul Mel. I found that certain crime/mystery thriller series do pretty good for me. But it's definitely a process figuring out which ones. I've been trying my hand at science fiction lately. Not doing as well in the genre 😊.
You continually amaze me. You work hard and fast! And you see work to the end!
Mel, great job on a bonkers haul. Could just hear Tom saying, ‘Got things to do -Bye’ Super soul he is. Thanx for more inspiration😉😊
Your reset went really well. I love your videos. Very inspirational
Way to go Mel 👏👏👏👏👏 so proud of u x
I enjoyed watching you process this big haul. Great job the way you proceeded with the different categories, photos, listings and storing and getting rid of what you don’t want in the warehouse. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you so much!
Well done!! Thanks for the motivation to get things done! 👏👏👏
You are so welcome!
You did such an amazing job! Love the video and how vulnerable you were with adding the singing clips. I was singing with you for sure.
I’m a terrible singer LOL
Great job, Mel. Congratulations
Recently discovered your channel. I am absolutely loving your journey! Best wishes from the Netherlands!
Always a treat to see your videos, Mel❤
Glad you like them! Thanks for watching
Fantastic job Mel! I loved hearing you sing. I love when people sing. It helps to keep the momentum up and positive energy flowing. You are an inspiration!
I have a particular playlist of songs that require scream singing that use when I’m tiring of motivation lol. Singing helps lol
I totally enjoyed the way you did this Video! Great Job!
Well Mel i see you working through this and smashing it.
Mel you must be so proud of yourself.
Not only did you process that haul fast, you are staying onto of your warehouse. Go you 💙
Yes I am! It feels good! And sales are still up!
She's such a great inspiration
Great job. You got me motivated. I was photographing and listing at the same time.
I love your taste in music girl!! You are such an inspiration, I have thousands I am going through and this is just what I neede to see today! So thankful for your content!
Absolutely brilliant well done. Shania is proud of you 🥳
I've recently started watching your channel Mel, and have loved seeing the joy you have as you work. Books are a lot of physical labor and you do it all beautifully. I'm a retired estate liquidator, and was formally a professional organizer for a long time. You have a standing ovation from me for this video. Way to go, thoroughly enjoyed watching you process!
Thanks so much welcome to the channel!!! I appreciate you watching!
These last few videos are just amazing! I have copied you and this weekend I started prioritizing photographing and storing items so they are out of the way. Thanks for all the inspiration! You are a star!
Great to hear! I hope that method helps you!
You’re warehouse is nice and clean, so time for more inventory! 💰💰💰I knew you could do it, Mel! 💪❤
Yes! Thank you!
I just watched your video with my 4 month old son! He was goo-ing and gah-ing the whole time, I believe he was cheering you on! Go Mel 🎉 😄
This was so satisfying to watch. I have to admit that I did have my head in my hands especially when you said to Thom that you were not going to sort through them that day. I should never have doubted you.
It was a Saturday and I had to get the hire car back and had other things on with the kids.
"Look at the size of this big boy" made me 🤣😂 Look at you go Mel, you're an eBay/book selling machine!!!!
Ha ha, thank you
You did it and we all enjoyed watching your success. You are in such a better place in 2024 in so many ways and your fans are so happy for you!
I watch this and wish I lived closer so I could volunteer to help haha. Its my idea of a fun day sorting through books, researching books and photographing books.
Great job getting through it all!
Awesome to see the whole process. Please more.
This was so fun to watch!!
Cute, what a sweet singer😂🤣 You did a great processing job. Very well done👍Congrats
No one can say no to free inventory. Great job!
think I saw my order there 💪 processes and procedures are what gets it all happening - well done!
What's her ebay store info?
Thanks for your example of a large set of books taking things over. I also do books. I had a group of apx 7 thousand books. I am still trying to respond to it well ! I appreciate your example. Thanks for all the great focus you show me!
Wow! So much work! Hope you make lots from the gift. Mass market paperbacks are my favorite size. Wish I lived in Australia! 😕🙂
WAY TO PROCESS Mel….NO dicking around….NO procrastinating….Just head down bum up until the works done….I’ll be rewatching / listening to these last few vids as I organise my storage units….!!!!!😊😊👊🏼❤️❤️
This was awesome girl!! What podcast on motivation were you listening to?
Melbourne and many regional towns have also lost most of our Trash n Treasure markets.
The post pandemic markets were a fraction of the size they used to be with many dealers finding out how to sell stuff on FB marketplace and other sites
It’s such a shame. The Canberra market is not even worth the time now sadly and once upon a time it was absolutely fantastic.
@@backfromburnout I know someone who moved from Frankston in Melbourne to Canberra just so he could sell at that market.
All it would take is for a bunch of resellers to get together and sell their slow stock cheap.
Eventually other casual sellers would go and it would morph back into what it was before.
The singing was so funny! 🤣🤣 Your videos are the best! 😊❤
Awesome job!! I've been whittling away at my death pile. Takes FOREVER!!
There's a reason these books came to you. You may think some of then are not in your niche but they've come for a reason. You may find an additional abundant source financially. A buyer of such books may be someone who will be influencial in your life somehow. The Universe surprises us with many blessings. Congratulations on your haul. 👏🏼📚💰
After watching your last video, I was wondering how you would handle the next big haul with stuff that isn’t cherry-picked! 🍒 It’s a lot harder doing all the sorting and bundling, but you stuck with it and even managed to off-load some onto Tom! 😂 Terrific job, Mel. Glad your space is still looking immaculate.
Free items do have a cost to you. 1. To process and list what is your hourly rate 2. Storage 3. On going management of the listing. Free is Not Free. You have spent min 1 day that could be used to source high margin products. So your opportunity cost of processing low end items is whatever at min your day rate is plus over heads for day. So you will need to make back that amount to be break even.
Yes very true. Nothing is ever “free” in reality. I did get some good books though and I’m happy with the haul overall :)
Good job 👏 jealous of the sun in Australia, its -5 in the UK at the moment
Great video! Inspiring! Good job!
Hey Mel! I'm still watching every video but I rarely comment anymore...until today. I luv, luv, luv that you left your singing in, it was so cute. You are doing so well after what must have been a tough year (and I know you're not done with it all yet, but you're making progress). I was one of those people who wondered about your relationship with Tom, but I didn't think it was any of my business. The video where you guys went on a road trip, and left a B&B together, gave me a pretty good guess at what was happening (since you didn't clarify if it was 1 room or 2 - LOL). So when you announced the relationship, I got a good laugh, and I was happy for you both. Good for you! You two seem to have a lot of fun together. Wishing you all the best!
Good for you, Mel ,we'll done
“The size of this Big Boy” 😂😂. Well Done Mel 👏👏👏
🤣🤣🤣🤪
Loved the singing at the end, I cracked up! Another great vid!
Worse than a cat squealing lol
What a score! I got back I nto reselling this year after a 4 year break not really intending on selling books! But I went to a small country town op shop a few weeks ago with my mum and the old couple who run were so overwhelmed by the donations that had been dumped on their shop verandah that they told us to take all the boxes of books for free!! Turns out we think the family must've been home schoolers because there were 6 boxes full of kids reader sets, young adult full series!! and so so much more!! What an absolute blessing it was! Also it was so fun sorting through it all!
Good job Mel!
You are an inspirational seller! Wonderful job!
Thank you for watching me!
Wow Mel. 1000 books sorted, photographed and put on shelves or in boxes for Facebook marketplace in only 4 days. You are a machine. Hope Thom managed to find some books that fit his metrics too. What is next is all the listing which I know you will stick to it until they are all done. Please dont burn the candle at both ends too often. Keep a check on your health too. Great work my friend. Joan from Spain xxxxx
What is wrong with me. I should have said 2,000 books.
WTG! Congrats!!!!
I couldn’t do what you do, I love books & reading too much.This is work! Good luck to you from Virginia, USA. Maybe I will catch you on ebay one day.🤓
Great job!!! 🎉 you got this. Love your singing btw.
lol terrible singer but the music helps when I’m tired! Especially singing Whitney Houston loudly lol
Good on ya!☺
You're going to make so much more money this year if you keep being this productive. 😊
Doing a fabulous job on the organising and processes well done xxx. (Sorry can’t say the same about the singing 🎵). Love you anyway ❤❤❤❤
LISTEN to ABBA as you work!!!!!! You are the Dancing Queen MEL!!!!!
Ha ha. I have the most random playlist called “cleaning” which is all the music I can bop around to and sing screaming at the top of my voice lol
Well done, Mel!! Woohoo!!
Great video 📹 👍! Wow, free books, and quick turnaround processing! I need to get going, can't keep up with you! 😅😅😅 Have a great week 👍 😀! Joe Bee 🐝 from 🇨🇦 🍁 🇨🇦 Canada!
You can do it! :))
@@backfromburnout I can do it! Thanks 😊! I am really happy for you and Thom! All the best in 2024, many more blessings to you 🙏! Joe Bee 🐝 !
Well done Mel!!
Thank you!
Fantastic Mel! Determination is a great motivator. When I watch you bend over to take your pictures I wondered, would it help your back if you raise up your table? Just a thought. Keep on with these great habits and you will exceed your goals!
😂😂 it was free, you could hardly say no! It’s your reward after doing the punishment 😂😂😂
It’s a labourious job selling books
I really enjoyed today's video, young lady. Great photography/editing, and what an insight into your motivational character. I was very interested/impressed from start to finish. :>)
Great haul!
Great video. Well done.
You got this, girl!
The channel name really proves to be the case with this one. Congrats🎉
Nothing like a little Shania to get you motivated!
Mel's got big hauls, Mel's got big hauls, but Thom's got the biggest hauls of them all!!
Well done lovely, you worked so hard
