Best video so far x
@@paulcox2061 Thanks Paul for the feedback!
Goodness Mel,,, that looks literally like a library!! lol, awesome!
Great sales Mel:)!
Thank you!! 😊
Go Mel Go! And Happy Birthday Grannie!
Best video yet Mel charity shops reopen on the 12th ready to look for books thanks to you x
Yay! Thank you!
Just shows that the deals are out there to be had on market place, I have picked up many items from there for resale. Well done on Sales, but the star of the show was your Gran at 94!!! Thanks for sharing Mel......
Yes marketplace is great for buying things to sell. Most people selling on it just want to move it out of their house fast! Especially those moving house.
Yes granny 94yrs. Wow that’s a great age isn’t it. She’s amazing. Thanks for watching
Great lot of sales Mel, you have a fantastic system going. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks Cherie, it's working well for me and I'm finding my flow a lot better now that the space is more organised. Thanks for watching!
You and your videos always make me smile. And another great haul for you!
Thank you so much for watching and I appreciate the feedback x
Happy birthday granny! Great haul!
Thank you, 94 is pretty cool! Thanks for watching
Nice haul of books. Glad you got a flow going on.
Thank s for watching Peter! Yep, my systems are working well!
WOW Mel....AWESOME haul Lovey....!!!!!😊👊🏻
Yes, so many hundreds to make from this one! It was a great score.
Great haul - to think years gone by you used to ignore a lot of easy book sales chasing those elusive bolo brand name shoes and clothes. We went into the shop Sunday to make sure we didn't have too many to package on Tuesday. Lions club book sale on Saturday- yippee
Wow! I'd say you've done very well with that latest haul of books, full of gems. Jaws ultra cool! Nice work area setup you've created there.
That’s jaws book was so cool. Actually, my granny who was 94 yesterday, was on the beach holidaying when they were filming Jaws and she saw it all happening! How cool is that.
Thanks Ian, the system setups are working for me. :)
So efficient. I use the ref field on the Aus Post labels but never thought to be discrete there..just sent out a video by The Hollywood Trainer called "Butt Blast". Hmm..might give the postie something to think about when he delivers it.
Great pick up Mel. All look in good condition too.
Yes, all excellent condition except for the few vintage Stephen King and small fictions. A great pick up
That is a GREAT Haul! WOW!
Always enjoy your videos!
Thank you so much I appreciate the feedback!
Great idea I think, switching to price comping after you draft.
Yes, it's so much easier as I just have two eBay tabs open and copy and paste the title of the book and check the sold's so it's really fast. It's made a big difference.
That was an amazing haul! I like your set-up!
Thanks so much. It was such great value and I’ll make hundreds in profit from that pick up.
Thank you, the setup is working well for me so far. Having the corridor space to utilise really helps me a lot!
Wow! I am shocked you got ALL those Books for only $100! Incredible!!
It was such a great haul this one with all those sets and bundles. I’ll make hundreds on this haul!
Sounds so simple putting book detail in as ref information
Yes it’s so easy. If you sell clothing or
media (or anything!) and it has a SKU number you could add that. It can be made anything to be quicker for you to pack :)
Hello from Canada :) Great channel and information. Ever thought of selling all your books through Amazon FBA?
I wonder if she was a reseller with that eclectic collection! Great haul!!
I don't think so as I spoke to her for ages and told her what I did. She was downsizing and said she had moved the books several times during house moves but she didn't want to take them again. She was really happy to know I would send them to new wanted homes. :)
I got a huge haul of 11 boxes of children’s/teens novels from the 70s/80s & 90s from a lady clearing out her parents shed. These are mostly in full sets, pristine condition with some still in the original wrapping. For how much you ask..... FREE!!! Only catch was I had to drive a 50km round trip.... a deal of a lifetime!!
Score!! I love free books!! Sounds like you got some great deals!
Do you sell on eBay? That time period is my childhood and I'm always looking for the books I loved back then especially 70s/80s YA fantasy paperbacks and I'm fussy about getting the same covers LOL
@@penelopesparrow I do sell on eBay but I haven’t had the chance to go through these boxes. If you send me a message on Instagram @theaussiehustler
The zombie book that made a noise for a second there i thought it was my stomach lmao
Ha ha ha, I guess it's lucky the fart book didn't make the noise! LOL
@@backfromburnout 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Hey Mel! Do you work out what size mailer the books will need (to know how by being shipping will be) whilst working out the listing price ?
All my books are sold with free shipping so I just use whichever size is needed to post but because I have been posting books for so long now I very rarely make an error when estimating the size of the book and what size padded mailer is needed. Occasionally I might pay for a small and it needed a medium but not very often do I make a error of judgment when printing out packing labels prior and choosing shipping size. Hope that makes sense
Thanks for another great video Mel :) just wondering do you always photograph the actual books or do you use the stock photos from eBay?
No no, never use stock photos on pre-owned items. eBay can suspend you if you do that it's against the rules. You can learn more by watching this video I made which explains it and shows you eBay's exact rules.

@@backfromburnout thanks for the reply :) I thought it was like my DVDs that when you scan them and eBay supplies the stock photo then that’s okay. Great to know thanks :)
@@patriciaburkinshaw8280 only on new items can you use the eBay catalogue photos.
@@backfromburnout thats great to know :) thanks so much
Hey Mel! Do you find your buyer are mainly in country or out of country?
I would love to see what your ebay store looks like. Can you share your ebay store name?
I don't publicly link it but I'm sure if you hunt for it you can find it :)
I know you have said a warehouse would be more expensive but I just wonder how much time a warehouse with everything in permanent stations would save you.
It would definitely help but the good thing here is I keep all the tables set up so I can pull them in and out easily and i utilise all the corridor while I’m working. I’ve got pretty good systems working for the jobs that need to be done that don’t have permanent stations. The shipping table however I couldn’t live without. That is a must for any seller. :)
@@backfromburnout that is good you have enough space to at least leave the tables up. With your goals and work ethic it won't be long before you need that warehouse! I am just really getting back into reselling and trying to refine spaces and processes is a full time job by itself.
@@ashleyr8765 oh it really is. I feel like it’s taken me a long time to get into the right system and work flow but I think I’m getting close after tweaking things often. Trying to get the flow right has slowed down my growth a little but I finally feel on track and in more control now. I also think making the decision to focus on only one eBay store has helped me a lot.
If your'e comfortable to answer, How much per month approx for all that storage space?
I’m at about $250 a week
Do you leave the clear wrapping on the books when you ship or is it just for you?
I leave it on because it helps hold the books together in the package. It stops the multiple books slipping around in the mailer. :)
13:10 Box What?????? 😜
Do you sell mostly in Australia or worldwide?
I currently only post Australia wide but am looking to add some international postage to some of my book listings soon.
Just curious... Is Mel your nickname for something? My guess is Melissa. ☺️
Yes my name is Melissa. I started getting called Mel at about age 14 when I started working at McDonalds. And it stuck. But my family call me Liss or Lissy and everyone else calls me Mel or Melissa so you can call me whichever one you like ha ha
God help me. I love selling books!
Well you have found the right channel Steve!
Where do you get the music in your videos from?
There is a direct link in the description of this video if you would like it - I use epidemic sound.
@@backfromburnout Sorry I’m not good at reading & following instructions 😅

Thank you Jeff! I hope you are well I keep missing your streams and I need to catch up!
Is it just me or can you share the link to your store?
Whens the house renovation??
Hey! Our tenants are moving out this weekend so we should have access to start next week! Aaron will be doing a few things to it while it's empty before we move in but as soon we have access I will start the video's! We should move in about two weeks after we have the access providing Aaron can get all he needs to do done within those two weeks :)
@@backfromburnout cant wait😀🇬🇧
@@robertwillis9988 he's going to be busy LOL
@@backfromburnout And you🤭
@@robertwillis9988 he he, yes. But mostly Aaron the first few weeks lol
Very smart. Very pretty, and totally bonkers lol
Do you ever sell on Amazon?
No because in Australia we are not allowed to sell second hand books on Amazon.
