    Hi Carrie, what do you think about the new Poshmark fee structure? Is it worth focusing solely on eBay? There are rumors that eBay will implement a new fee structure in the U.S. after the new year. I feel like Poshmark will suffer significantly because of the new fees, and there will be even more lowball offers than before. What advice would you give to resellers on Poshmark? Should we focus solely on eBay? And if eBay also implements a new fee structure, what should we do? I think if that happens, it will be very difficult to make any money with a $10-15 profit per item model.

    • @carrieathome
      @carrieathome  2 วันที่ผ่านมา +2

      I don’t know much about Poshmark other than their fee structure changed and people aren’t happy. To be honest, I didn’t choose to sell on ebay based on their fees, I chose it based on how large their customer base is. I’m not going to worry myself about potential fee changes for now. If and when it’s actually in motion and going to happen, then I’ll take the time to see what’s going on and if I need to adjust anything. Until then, I’ll be doing the same thing I’ve been doing and not add unneeded worry onto my plate :)

    Congrats on the awesome sales. You are AWESOME for doing all that while pregnant ❤. I always wondered how to offer discounted shipping for bundles on eBay. Do you set that up through business policies?

    • @carrieathome
      @carrieathome  5 วันที่ผ่านมา

      Thank you! Yes, I believe you have to have a shipping business policy set up. Then there will be an “additional” option where you can set additional items to an order to be a certain price added on top of the business policy. ebay will charge original shipping on the first item and then charge the discounted price you set on each added item :)

    I'm also selling a bit on Ebay, but not so much as you guys 😅
    Can I ask you a question? All cloth you store in clear plastic bags. How do you call them? Where can I buy that bags? What size you use mostly?
    Thanks in advance for a reply!
    Good luck with sales!

    Love your channel.
    How long were you in business before you started selling close to the same amount you were listing a day? I'm feeling stuck. I've been listing 5 new items a day and then re-listing some 90 day old items (stuff listed off season) rather than pick up new inventory. I'm only getting maybe 2-3 items that sell daily. Is that normal or should I just go all in and list 10-20 new a day?

    • @carrieathome
      @carrieathome  5 วันที่ผ่านมา

      The thing with scaling is if you have the cash flow to do it. Cashflow depends on your profit margin and sell thru. You’ll need to calculate how much margin you have for the scaling. Last thing you want is to put your dollars in a bunch of items everyday that are sitting on the shelves and your cash dries up. I typically only bump up 5/day at a time. I can’t remember when I reached the threshold where I was listing and selling the same amount. But I do know you get there quicker with better quality items priced at a competitive price.

    • @carrieathome
      @carrieathome  5 วันที่ผ่านมา +1

      It really depends on the flaws and the brand. Some brands allow leeway for flaws like Carhartt if the flaws aren’t affecting the function of the item. Most brands though don’t have leeway for flaws and it really hurts the value.

    How do you handle a dress changes after purchase? I’ve been averaging selling only about 30 items a month in the last two years, and I’ve only had one person ask for me to change their address. When I look it up, it doesn’t seem safe to change it yourself because if something were to go wrong, it would be on the seller. I had the person purchased after I canceled the order and relisted with their correct address. Do you recommend a different way?
