Video idea for you : A "parting out" video. Where you show the most successful parting out bolo's. I think that could help everyone.
Can we just pause for a moment and give a big shout out to JRide for his work ethic, knowledge, grit & desire to share generously. I mean seriously, he does so much research, more than most, by FAR & then upon his adventures, shares freely with the rest of us & even has grace for the Newbies. But what takes the cake is he knows the stats on who, what % of people were still watching the video at the tail end & gives a PRO TIP 🙏🙌👏👏👏👏👏👏 I'm not into cloning, but if I was 😂👍 If Abraham was alive today, he'd be very pleased with this man.
You provide not only facts that are strictly about finding and selling the products, but also good motivational information and reality checks which is exactly the thing that I personally need. I am entirely certain that many others feel the same. Thank you!
Hello J, I just started my reseller journey and came across your videos while attempting to educate myself and become successful sooner. I can say from my experience you provide the most valuable information on more topics than most influencers and your strategies are top notch. Thanks so much for taking the time out to help others and share the secrets that are making you successful currently. I enjoy your straight to the info approach and find myself clicking immediately when your vids pop up on my notifications. Great job Sir. I have yet to make any sales but currently have 34 listings and counting. I have some Peter Millar Shirts, Sony vhs-dvd combo, a few curling irons, north face, patigonia, a pair of ray bans and some other things that you have mentioned on your channel. Thanks for showing me how to look up the product and calculate the sell through rate to know if I’m getting a long tail or not. You have truly been a blessing. I will continue to learn from you and plan on joining your other channels as well. You are appreciated Sir. Also way to go on your gym progress; I know you will be BUFF in no time lol!
Sold the ray bans today boom 💥
Thanks you have 38 listed and 136 sold!
Never had a problem with international shipping program.
Is it pretty easy? I made my first international sale this week
Loved the last little bit at the end and needed to hear it. Thanks man!
Thanks for all the help man!
Loved your later tip! You are a reseller/ Life coach. 😊 You are very encouraging.
Hey Jade, I have been following your videos for two weeks. I have been selling online part-time for 4 years, since I have been applying your advice my sales have increased more than 45%. Thank you very much for taking your time and sharing your knowledge with us. I have seen hundreds of RUclipsrs in these 4 years and so far, for me you are the best!!!!
Thanks so much! You always give such great advice.
Thank you so much for telling us how long items take to sell! It's encouraging.
Ive sold many items international and alot of them get returned due to how long it takes to arrive to the buyer. (Thankfully all we have to do it get it to the hub). Ebay covers it and we get our money, So on MY end I'm loving it.
Ps, your content is amazing. Keep up the great work
Great info and loved the motivational tips at the end. Thanks!
Love the tips, very encouraging.
Great video. Thanks! I've never had a problem with international sales. I had 55 international sales last year.
Great video , keep the tips coming:)
I love the international shipping program. Having the door open while you were talking was spooky in a funny way. Glad it was just your dog 😂
Wow! We just talked about exponential growth in my math class yesterday, and now you mention it in a video I am watching today! I just found you because Kat shouted you out in a video I recently watched. I subscribed.
Awesome content on all 3 channels..keep doing motivational/book reviews at the end 👍
Thanks for these videos. I'd like to learn more on how to make money of of parts like the vacuum and some appliances. Is there a certain brand you look out for?
That sleep number remote sounded like negative feedback at first when it hit the floor. Glad it was ok. lol
Good luck with the new channels Jake, thanks for the excellent content as always!
I just sold a Denon Diskman from 1989 I found at an estate sale for $5, it sold for $800, BOLO!
Atomic Habits, thanks for the nugget!
Your message at the end, good advice.. thanks
Love the tips!
Jake, estate sales are a good source for reselling too. Some ways to get the best deals are to wait until 2nd or 3rd day of sale, go to a lesser popular one the same day as jackpot one. As you get to know estate sales companies you will see which ones will give great deals, which ones gouge. I don't go to popular ones to avoid fanatical collectors and dealers. You will pick up great electronics in good condition with remotes, power tools, sporting goods, etc.
Hello, how do you look for estate sales? I'm new to this.
I laughed when you dropped that remote and it sounded like it shattered. This and all yr videos are so good. Like the instructional how to ones better, but so thankful for what you do. Glad the remote turned out fine.
Then I laughed again out loud when you pronounced dollar like "doll hair!" That's something I hear on another re-sellers channel all the time! And your closing..."Love you guys bye!" Another echo from another channel I follow (but not a reseller). Its awesome that the flipping community is full of such cool personalities! 😂😅😊
Genuine dude. Thank you!
Been shipping International with Ebay for years. What they did different was “enrolled” you if qualified. Meaning you DONT HAVE TO CHOOSE INTERNATIONAL WHEN LISTING. Before we always had to choose this delivery to the item. If you choose like the past, us sellers assume the customs and returns yourself. Just list the item if “enrolled” and don NOT ADD international shipping to your item…. Hence if enrolled your item is already listed with global shipping through Ebays responsibility of getting the item to the customer overseas.
Bad News!! Thrift stores pricing their items based on EBay prices. Can’t make any margin! Senior discounts being cut! Even garage sales jacking up prices off internet stores. Good luck 🍀
I've been selling on eBay now for a month and a half, I've made 43 sales and net around $3,000. I've been binging your videos and watching what and how you sell and it really does work!.
I work in Cyber Security, I make enough where I don't need to do this, but dude! I'm having so much fun I can stop, I'm addicted!!
I bought a $5 box of junk at a yard sale Saturday and in the bottom of the box was an old camera, listed it for $169.99 (lowest price was $225) with shipping and it sold in 44 minutes!
I have made some sales on Mercari recently, but the shipping kinda makes me mad, seems Mercari takes anything that remains from shipping.
I like working on super computers for my day job. But would rather do this addiction full time. Hopefully one day.
Last year I started sourcing at estate sales and find them to be way cheaper than thrift stores in my area! Just wondering if you do estate sales? You didn’t mention it?
Great videos!
Excellent! I’m on a new 17 day journey! I luv atomic habits. Thx
Why are shipping cost so high on EBay? I can ship so much cheaper if I do it myself… but then I’m not covered for EBay disputes . High shipping costs deter customers from purchasing 😩
I opted into the EIS when it first rolled out. I have only had 2 international sales, but it went very smoothly. Very happy with it.
I found a lot of old digital cameras. Listed them all and almost all of them sold within a week. Found an old clarinet in a case with all of it there. It sold in one day and made a few hundred from that. I did have a pro look at it first to make sure it was not worth more than that lol
I did have international shipping off for awhile when I had heard about issues and had noticed a lack of sales with it on. I’ve since turned it back on and have had good results.
All good with the interntional shipping, except one item was stuck in Cali for 2 months. The buyer asked for a return since it hadn't arrived.
Hello I'm fairly new here and new to ebay selling. My biggest problem is trying to figure out shipping especially when shipping internationally.
Thank you for great information on every video you share with all of us.
Good luck with the gym guys, I hope you start to like everything about it, that makes you healthier and gives you motivation and that never hurts.
Hey J, have you ever considered buying the Amazon return pallets? Or even venturing into storage unit auctions?
Everything sellers >>>
Good stuff as always jride
I'm always surprised when you say statistically only a small percentage watch until the end. I love all your videos and your tips. Thanks for all the info. I usually cant watch the lives when you're live bc I work during the day.
International has been great. Except one order, customer got the wrong item. Mix up in Chicago.
Two of my largest sales were international. Loving it so far.
I love international shipping. Once it gets to Illinois which borders my state, I'm in the clear. Never had a bad experience with it.
Hi jade, I've just started selling about a week ago. I watch all your videos and I learn alot. I think your great, you help me alot.....I still haven't sold anything yet, lol, but I know I will eventually......
When purchasing remotes and VCR DVD combos, how do you check to see if everything works??
Such an inspiring video!
Been trying to push that deathpile we been talking about. And it definitely has been helping with just the auction box/junk box and then ebay. Or antique booths etc. Seen some sale increase as well.
Do you need to pack/protect items any different shipping internationally?
Are you testing the car stereos and if if so how? I usually just sell for parts
I get decent sales through the international shipping program, the seller protections are good too.
Im opted into the international shipping program but haven’t had any sales for it. I have only been going a few months though so small sample size.
We would LOVE Flyp to become available in Canada!
We are doing international shipping. So far we have had positive experience. eBay makes it really easy.
Keep the tips for us 40%ers!❤
I like the what sold videos 10x more than the hoarder/don’t buy ones.
Most if my items come from abandoned storage units. I use online auctions only. You can some real treasures in those!
I started as a determined reseller at the start of this year. I was so encouraged by your videos and advice on selling hair styling tools but so far have not managed to sell a single one! Im puzzled really, they are good quality excellent condition, priced appropriately etc but no buyers... Does anyone else notice some things just don't sell well for them?
Hello, so how do you test all the remotes you buy?😅
Dude - I would’ve kept the Waring (maybe) after making a shit load of waffles! That looks amazing!
Great video, IM still mostly clothing but you are showing me why its important to focus on other categories. Nice static X tape. So when you use flyp, can you crosslist items you already have up on ebay? If so, does it pull the pics automatically cuz I delete em...
Yes, flyp let's you use any already listed item as a starter for crosslisting. It's really easy!
My sales have came to a standstill
Same. I’m not getting anything.
Hey there I have a question. I just received a return, the reason is “just didn’t like it” apparently the buyer didn’t like the color and it wasn’t the color they were expecting (just a different pink) than the one desired. Do I have to refund them? Or can I not refund? Or can I partially refund?
I have the wearing wafflemaker but I bought it new and have loved it for more then a decade...but $150 does sound tempting.
Just bought Atomic Habits. I put it on top of my to-be-read pile.
I've been coming by thr designer glasses cases for like $1.99 which sell for like $9....not much money wise but profit is nice percentage.
I’ve never had any issues with international shipping I sell stuff international every week. Sold a $300 item last week international.
I think you should reconsider putting the picking content on the second channel as it’s such a similar niche to this channel. Thanks for the great content
How do you know the remotes work before you sell them? Is there a way to test them?
Simple: put batteries in them and point them at your phone camera using the selfie mode. If you see the pink signal you know it works. He’s got a whole video up on his channel talking about this.
Love international shipping!
Had a couple international sales, so far only positive feedback
great video, never considered selling remote controls but now will grab a bunch 😁
Be sure to comp them, like everything there is good and bad.. Got a goodwill bins near you? I once got 200 great remotes there for $1.29 per pound, I think a hotel or hospital, something must have upgraded their TVs and I got all the old remotes. Also remove the batteries first, no need to pay all that weight.
@@stevevash4772 I have a Goodwill store near me dont know if they have bins, will check, great advice, thank you
How do you test them?
@@bettydarling2445 Personally I don’t test them, I have 60 day free returns, so if one doesn’t work, no big deal. So far I never had one returned. But there is a way, most cell phone cameras can show it light up, there’s videos on here about it.
Where do you store your inventory? What’s your set up like?
Most of it is in his garage, check out his what sold videos.
I bought a duson purple animal vacuum cleaner for $20 ?to break up..would you pay that much?
I’m supposed to be opted in. However, I get zero sales from it. 🤷♀️
im not doing international shipping, Im afraid.
International shipping makes up 15-20% of my sales and I've only had one issue. A hurricane came through when I shipped an item that went to France so delayed things a bit.
Wow what are you selling, that’s alot of international sales. Mine only like 1% is international sale
various things. Recently it was a bag of vintage kitchen utensils, a royal hagar candy dish, jeans, and old magazines.
@@hp4415
You would not get anything at those low prices in any thrift stores in my area.
How are you handling shipping on Mercari, Free ship on your own or are you using Mercari shipping labels. Good habits are really everything and being stubborn about getting them established is hard but worth it.
5150 on a baseball bat???!!! Why does that exist!!?? That’s police code for ‘mental health crisis’ basically bat sh*t crazy
How do you ship those baseball bats? Did you make , or modiy the box? Or buying new ones? It’s just hard for me to find the right size box for those bats so im just cerious
I use 4x4x48 (cut down to size) for golf clubs so you could probably use the same size box. And I use UPS Ground because USPS adds a surcharge for the longer box.
@@mauison do you buy these box in bulk? I don’t need 25 of them , just need a couples and can’t find a retail store selling these size.
What is the main downside of international shipping? Why wouldn't I want to opt in?
There is no downside. It results in more potential sales. You ship the item to a U.S. based eBay international warehouse. If the item is lost or damaged you don’t have to worry. If the buyer decides they want to return, you are covered.
Come to Los Angeles I’ll take you to my flea market
This hitachi vibra…..I mean massager!
I can see you listing too many branded items, please let me know how you avoided VeRO.
Slayer tape was a fake bootleg. Probably why it was passed over at the thrift or flea or whatever.
5:50 bro that's not for working out
What is the advantage of creating a second channel?
What % coupon do you send daily for offers 10 or 15%
15%
@@JrideFlips do you wait when you get a watched item, or you offer a discount right away
@@lalapet87 ASAP
Just wanted to say @@JrideFlipsI think it's sweet and unique that you try to life coach and mentor your listeners. 🙂💙 I think people don't get taught this stuff so it's great you are helping people develop that way. Also I went to our lousy Goodwill here in Fort Lauderdale area today. Crazy high prices... But I stumbled on a Dyson hair dryer. My first hair appliance. $10. Will sell for $60+. And one of the first things Ive found with a better than 100 percent sell through. 👐🏻😀 Thank you 😊
How many hours u put into your eBay business per week? Sourcing, listing, shipping, the whole 9
In the beginning.. 80 hours. Now.. 25 hours
@@JrideFlips smooth
5:01. eBay is dying.
In your opinion, why would consumers purchase on mercari instead of ebay, for example baseball gloves?
The just search into google for the baseball glove and Mercari pops up first
@@JrideFlips it makes sense that mercari is paying so much to be first in the search engine if they want to establish themselves as an A-tier ecommerce platform
If ebay is asking you all why people aren't using the international shipping program, could you please tell them it's because of their lazy programming? I used to use GSP and I would love to use EIS except for you have to opt your whole store in and can't opt out at the item level. With GSP you could opt out particular items by editing the listing.
I sell a lot of NWT Levi's but you aren't allowed to ship them to EU countries. I don't feel like risking getting veros on every single one of my Levis. So yeah this is the only reason I'm opted out, I'm sure I'm not the only one
That’s a very valid point. Same issue if you sold pocket knife’s and such
Could you set up different shipping policies? One for items that you ship everywhere and one that you only ship domestic?
@@mauison Possibly, I'm not sure, never heard anyone suggest that and didn't look into it. I wasn't going to risk having hundreds of my items getting taken down at once by levi's vero bots. It was just so easy the way they had it with the GSP before and I never got a single vero.
I'd also have to opt into business policies again. I opted out of those because they automatically opted me in without asking me, messed up my whole store and I couldn't properly change my handling times when I was going out of town.
How do you make money on the shipping.
Where was your hernia? If you don’t mind me asking
I have a herniated disc in my back and I’m terrified of getting surgery on it
You don't get a choice now on ebay international.
All items are available internationally.
I've only had 1 sale internationally, but all my listings have that option.
Ebay informed me last spring that all sales can be sold internationally and that we have nothing to lose as long as we ship what was ordered when it gets to the hub.😊
Lifting is 80 percent diet. Your protein intake needs to your body weight.
I wouldn’t buy a thing from you…. You try to make $$ off shipping.
Ok
Because losing money on shipping makes good business sense.
