Watch out for porcelain hinge boxes, I had a collection of about 250 to 300 that has been sitting in a box in my barn forever got them out sold over $1000 worth of them in one day. If it wasn’t for you and your help I just celebrated a $500 day and less than a couple weeks later I hit $1000 day thank you both so much
Another great video - Don't be surprised if some, or all the VCR's are returned or request part refund. While many VCR's can be picked up for $10 - $20, Some will even sell for a few hundred, the problem is most of the belts are dried or melted depending on how they were stored. Because the unit turns on and test ok, most will break within two hours of using. The belts are not that hard to replace, and fairly cheap online, and many how to videos (Craigslist Hunter, Golden Finger Picker) . Plus you can now sell at a higher price as refurbished. Plus your VCR's and DVD's should be double boxed. I pick up many FREE boxes and Corner guards from the dumpster of an appliance store.
Not only is she better at those things she is better looking too. :) Sorry Bro I am just joking... you are a lucky man! :) You have great family! Merry Christmas!
Your videos are super helpful. I have recently heard a few other youtube/podcast/resellers give you guys shout-outs for your generosity and willingness to support others in the community. KUDOS!!!
I watched the whole video, but I didn't see what "adjustment" that "increased our ebay sales by $600", like you mentioned in your title. Did I miss something? Thanks.
Yeah, that sweater proves that brand doesn't matter - Basic Editions was KMart's store brand! Great video as usual! Happy for you for all the VHS DVD sales!
About the Taz! I just watched that movie for the 100th time today but this time my reseller eyes caught the mug and said “oh! Those are really valuable!” Looked them up and was surprised the comps weren’t too high BUT didn’t realize it was about the YEAR! Then, I just so happened to turn on this vid. Wild! Thanks for the info, what an epic and iconic sale!
Hi Edin and Melinda! I have a suggestion; you might want to look at bubble wrap rolls made with bigger bubbles. It will save you from wrapping your items multiple times and save you money. That is what I did, so I hope this helps! Love your content and wish you the best! :)
I love your accountability board...with your goal of 30 new listings a day. That's one of my strategies for the new year! Congrats on your awesome success.
I really enjoy how transparent you are about your business. I have been wanting to start a part time reselling business for ages and just never got into it. But 2022 is going to be the start for me and I’m looking forward to purchasing and utilizing your spreadsheet as well. Thanks!
Hey hooks! Thanks for this video, a lot learned from this one for me. Q: what is the tape gun you’re using, the expensive one I bought is 💩, without the smile 😢
You two are awesome! Great video!! I love the detailed breakdown of the numbers, VCR packing, and clothing descriptions of what sold fast. You deserve your success for as hard as you both consistently work!
@@hustlinhooks thanks for the reply! I did some research as much as I could while not having the styles to look at in front of me and ended up going back to get them. Should do well. Always appreciate your advice
I’m only part time right now but what a difference reselling has made in our lives. We had our highest gross weekend this week. I want to thank you because all your bolo has helped me to make wise sourcing choices. I’m curious, do you request immediate payment under preferences? Why or why not? Thanks?
I do not do immediate payment. I lose sales. Buyers let me know they are walking away. Funny thing is I do not require immediate payment so either they are confused or Ebay has a glitch. I make a lot of sales on Friday where payment comes over the weekend. No big deal. We will eat if that payment takes a couple days.
Great sales, Guys! I am just starting to dabble in clothes myself. LOVE your channel. I have learned so much in the past months from you both. Much continued success. I am happy when I sell 3 things in a day - can't imagine 64 in a weekend. Looking forward to when my sales increase.
I'm curious how something can have "over 100% sell-through rate." In a store, if you sell through 100% of your first order of merchandise, you have a 100% sell-through, and you can't go higher than that because you don't have any left to sell. If you re-order and sell half that order, you still have 100% on first order sell-through, 50% on second order, and 75% total. You still can't beat 100%.
We will continue to source sought after items and continue to list 30/day. That’s what we can control, the rest we cannot control. There is always a slow down in commerce after the holidays, it affects all commerce and e-commerce.
Does UPS ever go back and charge you more than the label cost? I've heard quite a few say they do it. Also eBay will not honor the label cost even when proven dim and weight were the same as the label. I've had FedEx go back and charge more,with no help from eBay.
Go to your service metrics. You can see how many impressions Ebay is giving you on each item, then it tells you how many people clicked your listing. If you have 1000 impressions on a listing, yet no page views or very few page views, you have issues. 1. Your price is to high, end listing, adjust price and sell similar. 2. Your first picture sucks. Take new pics, end listing and sell similar. 3. Your title sucks lol. Write a better title, end listing and sell similar. 4. Do all 3 above for maximum benefit You WILL move old items doing this, it works 100% of the time.
Newbies must remember that they slowed down significantly for much of this year. I have sold many recently without changing prices. Prior to that last month they just sat in my storage. Also, remember regular VCRs sell for less. The amount of time to pack can reduce what you earn by labor. Plus, packing material. I guess what I am saying if you don't have a lot of storage be careful how many vcrs you buy. You may sit on them for a long time. This last month is the biggest burst in vcr sales I have ever seen. It will slow down. This isn't meant for you two. It is just some info. newbies may want to consider. Naturally they can do what ever they want.
Happy holidays Melinda and Edin! I am always inspired by you two!! I am anxious to get your spreadsheet here soon as I figure out how to navigate the dang thing. I sure wish I had a computer guru like you Edin to help but alas my husband's knowledge of computers is about as limited as mine. I'll get it eventually though. 😌 xoxo Lori K 🌹 🥀 🏵 💐 🌹 🥀 🏵 💐 🌹 🥀 🏵 💐 🌹 🥀 🏵 💐 🌹 🥀 🏵 💐 🌹 🥀 🏵
Melinda, please try to hold the items still when you’re showing them to us. You tend to talk with your hands and emphasize your words by shaking the clothing. Take a look yourself and you’ll see what I’m talking about. Can’t read the tags you’re showing us when they’re moving! (😘)
😳👏🏻 So many vcr units! Awesome
Glad they are gone, more coming in today!
The more I watch you guys the more I fall in love. You guys are the best! Have a very Merry Christmas 🎄
Merry Christmas! Thanks for the note. ❤️
Looking to do this full time in the future.
Awesome! You can!

I enjoy watching your videos! Keep up the hard work! 🥰
Thanks!
Edin, glad you sound much better! Looking Good. Hope the both of you are doing great.
Thanks!
I liked your t-shirt in the beginning, but I'm more of a LAV man, lol. Great video
Thanks 🙂
Thanks for the great tips!
Thank you
Way to go guys! Killing it for q4!
Thank you!

That’s awesome, thanks for sharing 🙂
Ok you do KNOW they make super thick bubble wrap with large sturdy bubbles right??? One pass is all it takes.
We are aware, will be trying some thicker wrap in the near future.
Very good
Thank you!
Love that WKLQ t-shirt....I interned to DJ for them back in 1991 at 19 years old....just a baby.
Ah yea, dates back to my first ever concert!
awesome loved the video
Thanks!
I watched the whole video, but I didn't see what "adjustment" that "increased our ebay sales by $600", like you mentioned in your title. Did I miss something? Thanks.
I talked about it when I was talking about the VCR/DVD combo units.
That Taz cup could survive a 300 ft drop. 👍👍
Yea but USPS…😂
Yeah, that sweater proves that brand doesn't matter - Basic Editions was KMart's store brand! Great video as usual! Happy for you for all the VHS DVD sales!
Thanks Amy! 🙂
Your work ethic is so encouraging! Wish you very Merry Christmas and a even better New Year!❤️❤️❤️❤️
Merry Christmas! 🙂❤️
Use the 1/2 inch bubble wrap for dvd / vcrs and other like size electronics. One pass usually works. Saves a good chunk of change long term.
Thanks for the tip! 👍🏼👍🏼
I just sold a Department 56 Snow Village Grand Ole Opry on Amazon for $160+shipping. I know these are very hard to find, but it is still a bolo.
Nice score!
The mug was such a score!!!!!! Perfect timing!!
Thanks! Not bad for $5!!
About the Taz! I just watched that movie for the 100th time today but this time my reseller eyes caught the mug and said “oh!

Thanks for the info, what an epic and iconic sale!
Thank you! As you know, nostalgia sells!
Wow. Now kicking myself because I saw a Taz mug at savers a few weeks ago. Well now I know. Thanks.
We have missed thousands over the years, it happens, live and learn.
GREAT SALES!! WE LOVE YALL!
Thanks guys ❤️
@@hustlinhooks Your welcome
That's is a good way to get Mel to do the most listing. LOL Tell her she is much better at it.

Yep way better than these tiny wraps.
what company do you order your 20x16x6 boxes from? Thank you!
Amazon
@@hustlinhooks is there a specific brand / company you order from on amazon?
No, the best deal.
Wow! Great sales week.
Thank you!

Man, I never get the cha ching anymore just that harp strum sound. I guess I need a new phone.
👍🏼
You guys rock! Merry Christmas!
Merry Christmas!
That is my holy grail of coffee mugs. Been looking for that for years.
Indeed it is 🙂
You both do so well!!! Great job!!!
Thanks!
You should put cardboard on your corners partway through wrapping them like on a painting.
Perhaps.

Great job Team Hooks!!
Thanks!
Hey hooks! Thanks for this video, a lot learned from this one for me. Q: what is the tape gun you’re using, the expensive one I bought is 💩, without the smile 😢
Hey, pleasure, it was just a 3” tape gun from amazon. Not sure which specific one.
Congratulations for all the Success and all the hard Work. God bless you guys.
Thank you!
You two are awesome! Great video!! I love the detailed breakdown of the numbers, VCR packing, and clothing descriptions of what sold fast. You deserve your success for as hard as you both consistently work!
Thanks! Appreciate the note.
Look at you go! You two are killing it with your dedication to meeting your goals and learning so much along the way. I enjoy watching you!
Thanks! Appreciate the kind remarks 🙂
Would you pick up quite a few pairs of miss me and rock revival jeans all same size lightly worn for $12 each?
Yes
@@hustlinhooks thanks for the reply! I did some research as much as I could while not having the styles to look at in front of me and ended up going back to get them. Should do well. Always appreciate your advice
Any time 👍🏼👍🏼
Just a great equally balanced team. Enjoy you both. Ty
Thanks!
That basic editions not vintage. I used to sell them at Kmart a few years ago..that model is from 2013
Thanks for the info.
You 2 are the bomb!!🎉👏🎉
Hey thanks!
Great sale on the Taz mug!!! Wow!!!
Thanks!
Love hearing about all your strategies to make sales!!
Glad to share them 🙂

I want to thank you because all your bolo has helped me to make wise sourcing choices. I’m curious, do you request immediate payment under preferences? Why or why not? Thanks?
Awesome! Glad to help. Yes, immediate payment. I think of it this way, when I’m pumping my gas, no one offers that I pay them later.
I do not do immediate payment. I lose sales. Buyers let me know they are walking away. Funny thing is I do not require immediate payment so either they are confused or Ebay has a glitch. I make a lot of sales on Friday where payment comes over the weekend. No big deal. We will eat if that payment takes a couple days.

You’re over thinking it. It simply means there is a low supply and a high demand. Roughly 3X sales per available listings.
You two are very cute and you can't tell u work well .question do you put a price or do people bid on your stuff .confused 🤔
Thanks, no bids, all “buy it now”.
Edin waits to see how many you get listed and brings it home to the magic 30 :)
That’s it 😂
👋 from Michelle in Kirkland WA
Hey!
I’ve been seeing your Instagram story and that’s amazing those must be making a huge dent in the inventory and more room for more 😊
Already replenishing 🙂
👍
🙂
Great job you to
Thank you!
Are you expecting weekend sales to plummet after Q4, or is it possible to keep things moving upward?
We will continue to source sought after items and continue to list 30/day. That’s what we can control, the rest we cannot control. There is always a slow down in commerce after the holidays, it affects all commerce and e-commerce.
Love your content and tips, especially the ones about clothing , as well as VCRs and DVD players. Keep it up. Thanks
Thank you 🙂
Does UPS ever go back and charge you more than the label cost? I've heard quite a few say they do it. Also eBay will not honor the label cost even when proven dim and weight were the same as the label. I've had FedEx go back and charge more,with no help from eBay.
Yes but rarely.
It happened to me once with USPS. Never understood why.

That mug is awesome! You two are fire 🔥! Have a great week! Joe Bee from Canada 🇨🇦!

It was explained in the video.
