    ok, always look inside back of car before getting it girl...... great video. thanks for sharing. hey, i can tell you a great way to organize. label tubs and products with A, B, C, etc... and when you number item, but the tub its in. you will never have to look but right box from now on! :) and the issue with ebay labels is that if you decide to ship it another way, it will not allow you to change it even if YOU are the ones paying for it. i have had that nightmare when i made mistake, hitting package vs envelope. its a 3.00 mistake! it would not let me change it....

      @@lexibush Good question... This one had 27 reviews. 4.4 rating. Say's over 7700 sold. ..but I personally have not had any experience with it. Can't find the share button on eBay, but search for " Super Bubble 3/16"x 12" Wide Mailing 700 ft bubble small bubble + Wrap Roll. " The last bubble wrap I bought was from Staples. $20. It's good. Perforated in squares. 175 ft and I only bought it, because I needed it that day. I'd say it's good, but not sure whats better either. Duck brand tape is good...so I'm assuming the bubble wrap is too. Anyway, the one on eBay, might be worth a try. Not sure. I feel like it's almost impossible to get packing "peanuts" at a good price... I may look into that too. I don't sell a lot of breakables, but when I do...I like to use bubble wrap and the packing peanuts. Whew! that was a lot, oh well. Have a great day and make lots of money!!!

      just look at many videos. go with gut and knowledge and start. if you see you can do it, then go get a basic city biz lis. work with your figures to ensure state taxes and such end of year.. i pay quarterly so end of your ok, and dont owe sales tax if you see your going to do it as biz, vs just personal to see how you like it first... there you go.

    How long do you typically wait between when an item sells for a buyer to send the money ?

    • @lexibush
      @lexibush  4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      bridget glessner on poshmark and mercari you don’t make the sale unless the person has paid. On eBay they have 48 hours to pay and if they don’t you can open a unpaid item claim. So in the end never ship until you’re paid!

    Wow! You thrift a lot! I'm so jealous! I try to only thrift on Friday's and I rotate which thrift store I go to so I'm only at the same thrift store once a month. If you ever venture out to West County, you should let me know! Also, I can't believe tape is only $10. I ordered two packs...thanks! Happy New Year and thanks for sharing your Monday with us! :)

      you would be surprises how much new inventory you can get going to the same thrift stores x3 a week. i have 8 thrift stores i rotate every 2 or 3 days depending on if i find enough inventory or not. just picked up a pair of tory burch gold sandals for $3, easy $50 to $100 profit. i picked up a total of $850 in gross profit with barely over $100 invested. ( garage sales today sucked for me. only furniture and antiques)

    I already have some things I want to sale and I just bought a scale that should be able to weigh up to 50 pounds. I bought a simple one from Walmart so there’s no telling how long it will last.

    • @lexibush
      @lexibush  4 ปีที่แล้ว

      George I was part time through college just because I didn’t have the time to be full time, and once I graduated I switched to full time! My listings are on multiple platforms! I try to keep up with cross posting as much as I possibly can!

    • @Geo35868
      @Geo35868 4 ปีที่แล้ว

      Makes sense. Well I am just starting but I was thinking, I do ebay now, if I do poshmark and have the same items listed if one sales on either platform then I gotta go and remove it from the other. Do u find yourself doing that often? I'm thinking it wouldn't be a hassle if anything just allowing more chances of selling your product right?

    • @lexibush
      @lexibush  4 ปีที่แล้ว

      It only takes a few seconds to delete an item off a platform. I just make sure to do it the minute I see that I had made a sale and I see it well worth the small hassle! Multiple platforms is super important, especially if you’re wanting to go full time!
