Carrie the way you and your husband run your eBay business is impressive. I look forward to your video and learning more!
Thank you so much!
Whoa, amber is the color of your energy
Whoa, shades of gold display naturally
Wow. Goals for us! We started in June. Thanks for sharing what sold and congrats on the great weekend!
Good luck!!
As a stay at home mom, it's great to see how other families do Ebay, especially as we think about expanding our family & wondering how we can still do the business. Thanks for sharing!
Absolutely!!
Congrats on the 100 piece! Here’s to many more this Q4! 🎉
Here’s to Q4! 🥂
Wow 100 items you Americans really do smash it. Fellow reseller from England
That’s a lot of work! Great job!! I love good sales weekends 🙌🏼
It really is but the payoff is worth it!
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.
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 :)
Wow! That’s a wonderful weekend! Good job!
It was! Thank you!
I bought the $17 VUP Wristband phone holder off amazon and it's a game changer not having to hold your phone while pulling orders.
I’ll look into that! Thanks for the rec :D
Wow, congratulations, that's an amazing start to Q4! You might have to start packing orders on Saturday or Sunday to reduce your Monday workload. Its not more work, its greater success!
Definitely going to have to start doing that!
Oh ... and I putt all my clothes into the cold ! dryer for about 5-10 minutes ( tags don`t get hurt ) to remove dust , hair ( animals ) and wrinkles , so that it is not in my house 😀
Wish I could find that many pairs of pants to list.
Great job!!
Wow fantastic sales, you two make an awesome team! Now get some rest Carrie 😂 being pregnant is hard work, my youngest baby is 5 months old and the lack of sleep is still so rough.
You got this!
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?
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 :)
Hello Carrie! 😊 Just found your channel! Subscribed right away❤
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!
Taras 😊
Really love your videos!
Hello from Germany 🙂
Enjoy your videos Carrie! I’m also wondering if you promote your listings and for how much? Thank you!
Thank you! It averages around 6% but figure what works best for your store. What I do may not be the best for your store
Love ur setup great sales
Thank you!
You might want to double check that baby swing. I think it’s on recall.
Thanks for the lookout! I googled it just now and couldn’t find a recall on VaVa (the one I have) but I did see one for Fischer Price swings. 👍
Thanks
Hi Carrie! Thanks for the video. I want to ask you a question regarding the dimensions on the packages when shipping. Let's say I have a 10X13 polymailer ... would measure the height once the jeans are in? How would you do it?
Invest in some Hokas. Thanks for the great videos.
Great suggestion! Better shoes would definitely help!
Another great video !
Glad you enjoyed it!
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?
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 thx Carrie !
Praying for Kyle. Everyday 😂
😂😂
Hey do you promote your items? ive been having some slow sales and I was thinking about doing promoted listing. what do you recommend?
311? cmon! haha
Can’t find the link to your jean eBay store
Those are actually a 501xx slim taper. Love selling Vtg Levi’s
They are actually modern! A Justin Timberlake edition for some reason lol
@@carrieathome yeah I was just doing more research. They make so many remakes and models 🤣
@@Merrill_Todd you’ve got that right! They’re wild lol
Excuse me for asking where do you ship most items via USPS or FedEx?
USPS for now!
@@carrieathome thanks you
Do you have a link for the boxes you use for storing your inventory?
I have a video all about my storage system with links!
Just curious do you sell flawed jeans? I bought a buyout but 10-15 are flawed like frayed cuff, bleach stains, some small ripped areas etc? I have trouble wanting to list those
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.
❤
Oh... hello from Germany ... you said you are pregnant ... did you know that it is better to take the adresse from the paper and cut it at the end of the work . --- each time you pull of the piece of adresse it makes dust . That goes in your nose , over the inventory and into the printer and harms it .... Sorry for my German-English
Wow 100 packages! I wish I had that many sales. Lol. I'd prob do the same thing with the 311 hoodie.
I’m glad I’m not alone 😂 it was something Kyle had picked up and I just couldn’t recall that band!
you dont sell on poshmark?
Just on ebay!
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?
Excuse me for asking what discount do you use for customers 20% or 25% per item?
No worries at all! I offer a 15% coupon :)
@@carrieathome thanks you
Don’t get so down about the 311 hoodie. I’m sure it was just all mixed up. Not a beautiful disaster, but rest assured amber is still the color of your energy.
🤣🤣🤣 thank you 😂
@@carrieathome its ok I sold a rare vintge tea cup set for $30 and it was bought and relisted for $300 oops! research goes a long way lol
Haha! Well, I know it’s mean, but I probably would’ve canceled the sale if I caught it before shipping and just acted like it got stained and then relisted it within the next week for what it’s worth
@@brroookkeee never cancel a sale unless the buyer asks to do so. it will hurt your store - ebay will ding your account.
You have probably been asked this question a gazillion times…sry…but do u wash your items? Thx!
It’s all good! Yes, because it’s a part of ebay policy when it comes to preowned clothing. I don’t wash if it’s dry clean only though.
How big is your store?
Currently at 1800 items :)
Great job! Love your videos and the great tips! I cannot for the life of me figure out where to add the SKU in my listings.
Thank you! And I can help! In my organization video a bit ago, I show exactly how to add the sku number😄
You must have a store for this feature to show up. :-)
@@CarolGuidi-r8f ahhh, makes sense. I'm not there yet, but working on it!
❤🤍💙
311 sucks, don't feel bad you didn't know of them lol
311 is dope thats why thier sweater sold used so fast and is worth so much.
@@billargueta5458 valid argument.
i wouldve cancelled and relisted
Unfortunately that’s a bad habit to get into. It’ll wreck your store
