We adopted a flame point Siamese little girl, Mia, from a rescue a year and a half ago and have no regrets. When we looked the breed up online, flame points are known to be very doglike - loyal and people friendly. She gets along well with our other cats and is our little shadow, always near. He showed up for a reason. You won’t regret adding him to your family! ❤
We get things moving. I agree several categories are slow on eBay. I do very well with vintage plush but haven’t sold a build a bear or squishmellow for a long time! There are definitely winners in every category. Occasionally, I even sell a Ty beanie baby, the Halloween ones are still sought after and go for reasonable prices.
We are trying to get things moving. Great job Kevin. Thank you for the great videos. Don't tell Dave, but you are #1. Have a blessed day. Steve @ Athearn's Attic
Hi Kevin, watch all your videos. All the items you mentioned are items I sell…not as much as I was selling for, but are still selling. I am a member of Dibdit and would love to win that cool bag. “We get things moving.” Love all your animals! You didn’t mention what the new kitty’s name is. Thank you to you and your family for all the good you do.
Anytime I hear a seller whine and say that they won’t sell in X category anymore I think “excellent, one less low effort seller which will clean up the marketplace”.
“We get things moving”. He’s soooo cute! That HD Jacket was very cool even if faded, it makes it unique! We’ve decided to do a two-part sale every weekend for the next month. We are getting a few more sales and getting some old inventory moving 😊
With the cds and vinyl, it does seem like there are tons of listings now then just a few years ago, but a good title still sells consistently and that includes Elvis.
I don’t think it’s safe to say that any category is “ruined” or “dead”. It’s all about the data. It’s so easy to check sold comps or sell thru rates on the fly. Also, I’m willing to accept lower margins on categories that are easier to process and ship, as long as they sell. So, I’ll continue to pick up things like hats and shirts if they are new / like new, and have good sales data. While I would love to make $50+ per sale, I’m OK with selling the $10 profit items, as long as they are easy to list and ship.
"We get things moving" I recently bought one of the ones on Commons, but having the ornament would be great too. I sell several of those types of 'don't sell' items. I'm just more careful about what I pick up and how much I pay. My family has been calling me the mug lady since I have sold quite a few the past few months. Beautiful kitty!
We get thing moving... Had a Great P3 (best quarter since I started selling 3 years ago), hoping for an even better P4! Thanks Kevin for all of your videos. I learn something new from every one...
Welcome new kitty! (hello Noname!) The siamese looks like a mixed breed, or else a proper Siamese cat from Thailand. I'd call the breed Love Bug or Lap Rat, but he or she is a flame point for sure.
For the past few months, all Military type gear and clothing has been selling, don't know how I feel about the uptick of sales in this category. I get things moving! Congrats on the new member of the family and stay blessed!
You’re absolutely right Kevin this has always been the case where stuff goes up and down in popularity and price !! Dibdit member here too tote bag please!
Hey Kevin I remember a while back you said someone you follow showed you some things about glass and which ones to look out for what was her channel. I couldn't find which video of yours it was. You thanked her when you bought that large lot of glass. Thank you ahead of time an have a blessed day
I am doing the best with clothing I just opened a 2nd store for clothing only and am using that store to experiment. Its not a store and Ebay gave me 3700 listings! Right now I have under 100 and am selling things every week. I said I never would do it again but its been fun. I just put a few listings a week on there.
I bought the N64 thanks it arrived in great condition. If you find any games for it besides what came with it im interested depending on what they are.
Media isn't dead. Some of eBay's largest sellers are in media. I strictly sell media and will eventually be doing this full-time. Generally, speaking media sellers are a volume business. Just doing this part time, I've had 1150 sales so far this year and am currently up 39.3% over the previous year. I currently only do this part-time. Generally speaking media is dirt cheap to get and there are many items in this category that can go for a fortune! I've sold individual CDs that I paid $1 for over $300+. I'm a member of various Facebook CD collector groups with thousands of other people. Again, media isn't dead!
Media is definitely not dead, I also sell mostly physical media... but it is definitely an expert category now. Most printed books are literally garbage (and most CDs and DVDs are worth so little they are unsellable online), it takes knowledge and experience to find valuable items and make money doing it. On the bright side, if you know how to identify sellable media, it is SO EASY to photograph/scan, list, pack and ship, versus clothing or electronics. It is cheap(er) to ship too thanks to media mail.
Kevin, what are your thoughts on vintage tupperware? I recently got a storage unit with new and used tupperware, she was a tupperware rep. She had vintage Disney tupperware and really neat stuff!
My opinion on the vinyl. I see many pickers on TH-cam who don't know the bands and pick up some good ones and leave some they think won't sell. I won't give my age but my era had the best bands the best hair and the best cars LOL. I was lucky enough to see some of the greatest bands in the world. I was buying concert shirts for fifty cents at my local swap meet. Many of which I still have. I understand you don't have to know or like the music to buy the music or shirts. But it doesn't hurt to have a better understanding. Rock stars that are in their 70's means many of their fans are also that age. That age group is downsizing and not buying to much to "collect". Keep that in mind when sourcing they may not know how valuable some of their music can be. I like going to sales at Mobile parks that are 55+ or older. Peace
Oh man I'd love to have that Dibdit bag... I need an AM extra large bag for my Wednesday church sale I go to every week. Also I sold a huge lot of old school country cassettes. 115 of them for $55. Sold after only being listed for 2days. Also sold 2- 2pac cassettes for $75. So media isn't dead!
You crack me up! I wonder how many comments you'll get from people who don't know your sense of humor or didn't watch far enough to get the joke. I've sold in most of those categories recently as well. Low sell through rate items in every category are hard to sell, and there are always exceptions to each category. But, I will say most things sell eventually. We just changed our our garbage disposal, and this week I sold a bunch of the trim parts. When in doubt... I still love the surprise of discovering new categories and items after all these years. The treasure hunt goes on. Thanks for another fun video. Dibdit :)
I sell a lot of different items, including clothing and I'm doing pretty good. My higher end clothing does sit a little longer, but I try to offer more affordable items with the way the economy is at the moment.
Things will sell in “dead” categories, but it means that you have a put more effort into it. A used misshapen hat in need of cleaning could still sell with ease for decent money, but now it seems that condition affects the price much more than it used to.
I think William and Mary are great products. #wegetthingsmoving We Get Things Moving God knew that cat would heal the hearts. AND OMG it's cute! I have a few sleeper items. The right thimbles have done well by me.
I think people build a narrative that categories are dead, however they dont think about things that are in their control, just as better pictures, listings, pricing. You get what you put into it.
I just sold a 1988 tmnt plush NWT for $99.99 today. Sold a chuckee cheese plush earlier this year for $299.99. Not all plush is dead! I think I had $25 invested in the pair.
Congratulations on the new cat. Never really was a cat person but somehow ended up with 2. You need to explain your inventory system. How do you keep track? 😅 Only been selling for about 2 years, still learning what sells and want doesn't. Did sell a Harley coffee mug today, which was one of my 1st purchase, so listed over a year. I did have the shipping way high for some reason, that was probably the problem. Thanks for the vid!
Glad yours are selling but I have all of this lised and base priced and none selling or getting views and it's not my pictures just smaller sellers struggling
@commonwealthflipper no but I do think when you make a large sale they slow you way down. After I sell a item over 100 dollars seems like my site just stops . Have squish mellow and hats at base prices and they just don't move . B ut I will see other items other sellers have going at higher prices. Not sure what the answer is but I just keep listening adjusting and pushing forward just trying to survive till I return to work at law enforcement. But ebay not helping me out with their algorithm lol. Be safe and pray for us down here in hurricane ally. 2010softaillady
I'm just a part time seller and I've sold over $9k in hats this year so definitely not dead, just gotta realize people may not wanna pay as much as in the past so just buy smarter, people will buy them.
I don't think those categories are dead. It may be just a slowdown in buying due to the economy. As for clothing, people are buying what they need, and may be thinking out online due to the new fee implemented on buyers by poshmark & Mercari. in my area I am seeing people buying clothing in brick & mortar stores on clearance & sale days.
I don't where these folks are getting their info but I have a booth in an antique store and vinyl and cd FLY out of there. I sell hard goods and glass but when I am working albums ALWAYS sell. Oddly , my best sellers are smalls, S & P, Sandicast figurines, anything cat.
Hey Kevin I just had an idea to run by you. I am in one of the disaster zones in NC. I have kept selling when cell service would popup but a week without power or much cell service has killed my sales with the algorithm. With the damage it’s also limited sourcing. Is there any chance you could do just a short video sharing the eBay stores in the affected area? In case you like the idea mine is Fortunate Pickups
I'm guessing apparel is about to get some serious action on eBay because Poshmark's new fee structure is likely to drive buyers to other platforms. They added a buyer side fee. eBay should send PM a gift for that decision that's hitting in Q4. 🙄
I have still in box Star Wars figures.. I can send the pictures or the items I am a widow and 65 yrs old I’m in need of making my home safe for me therefore I need money
I used to sell just shoes and i was at 20k for my 90 day. I started including clothing and it dropped down to 10k. Im still selling the clothing so i wouldn't say it's dead. It's just the shoes sell for more money per item.

original vinyl. my old cassettes were doing good 1 year ago, now i see surge in cds, vintage costume jewelery pins do good.
Flame Point Siamese are the BEST!!!!!!!!!
love your videos, keep things movin!!
I don’t pick up magazines or pictures anymore unless something is really special about them. Postcards really slowed in last few years.
You’re absolutely right Kevin this has always been the case where stuff goes up and down in popularity and price !! Dibdit member here too tote bag please!

Was it Crazy Lamp Lady?
Tim from Over the Years also does glass
It is a him. Over The Years. He is on the Reseller Information Network and has his own channel as well.
No but she has helped me before as well and is extremely knowedgable.
Thank y'all for the help
We get things moving. Thanks for all your advice. You're my favorite eBay reseller TH-camr!
I appreciate that!
We get things moving! I sell necessities ( clothing and shoes) plus wall art, dishes and costumes patterns for example…list it all
Just picked up one of the DibDit Ikea bags during a live from you. Everything arrived today. Looks great.
I sold a build a bear for $200 a couple years ago. It was a vampire wearwolf mix plush. Paid a quarter

I am slowly swapping over all of my inventory to video games, thats my speciality and always will be.
Great show. I have a white cat just like that one that adopted us. Didn't know what breed she was, thought just a mutt. lol
Siamese are AWESOME!!!!
Kevin, what are your thoughts on vintage tupperware? I recently got a storage unit with new and used tupperware, she was a tupperware rep. She had vintage Disney tupperware and really neat stuff!
A labor of love
@commonwealthflipper lol definitely There are definitely unique pieces i can't find nowhere.

Dibdit definitely helped with the items we sell and like to look for, personally I didn’t think I would ever do live shows but it’s been a blast!
Awesome. I hope you keep at it as we try to keep growing the audience.
Oh man I'd love to have that Dibdit bag... I need an AM extra large bag for my Wednesday church sale I go to every week. Also I sold a huge lot of old school country cassettes. 115 of them for $55. Sold after only being listed for 2days. Also sold 2- 2pac cassettes for $75. So media isn't dead!
We get things moving. I've noticed the new Arcade sign for awhile now, where did you ever find that!? Just as cool as the Nintendo sign.
We get things moving! I watch every video but don’t comment much. Happy Holidays to you and your family. Best of luck in Q4!
Thanks Kevin for keeping it real. Glad to know things I’m selling will still sell. We get things moving!!
Dibdit....watch all your vids and am member on Dibdit, would love the bag for picking!

Dibdit :). And I think Sophie sent that sweet kitty to your family! 💙
I sell a lot of different items, including clothing and I'm doing pretty good. My higher end clothing does sit a little longer, but I try to offer more affordable items with the way the economy is at the moment.
I’ve been getting back into reselling the last few months. I really enjoy your videos. We get things moving
Get things moving. I would love the ornament. Love your videos.
Things will sell in “dead” categories, but it means that you have a put more effort into it. A used misshapen hat in need of cleaning could still sell with ease for decent money, but now it seems that condition affects the price much more than it used to.
Things are slow but moving. Thanks for the videos, we get things moving!!!
We get things moving. I learn so much from your videos, I rewatch them over and over again. Thank you for all the help and knowledge.
Beautiful cat Reagan! I couldn't hear much because our little Minnie Mouse likes to bark like crazy at your pets. Lol Does she have a name yet?
It's down to Blue, Sparky or Bruce. I like Willie but nobody else does.
I think William and Mary are great products.
#wegetthingsmoving We Get Things Moving
God knew that cat would heal the hearts. AND OMG it's cute!
I have a few sleeper items. The right thimbles have done well by me.
Love your videos, you show us it’s ALL possible 😊

I am always amazed at what sells.

I don't really have one other than I put items in like places. ie.. All plush goes here. All jeans here all home goods here etc.
No sir... definitely not a matching mug set! CLEARLY the second one didn't feature the dead bug! lol 😂
"We get things moving"
Great video!
Glad yours are selling but I have all of this lised and base priced and none selling or getting views and it's not my pictures just smaller sellers struggling
Do you think ebay favors the larger sellers? If so what do you consider large.
@commonwealthflipper no but I do think when you make a large sale they slow you way down. After I sell a item over 100 dollars seems like my site just stops .

Saw a jack for sale at a flea market. They wanted $44 just for Jack!
Clothing is definitely not dead. Vintage is very hot.
Media is hands down my favorite thing to sell!!!
Great video Kevin, thanks!👍🙂
I hope hats still sell i just bought a VTG mesh trucker Mack truck hat yesterday
Cat distribution system is working nicely, I see 😂 congrats on being adopted by such a sweet kitten

@@commonwealthflipper I’m going out to volunteer but I can when I get back home
Great sales 👍🏻 ... Jayne 🇬🇧
We get things moving! Sweet little kitty!
Sports cards prior to 2004 still good. Just avoid the junk especially 80s & 90s.
I have about 5 CB radios...been afraid to list because I don't know how to test them...do you test yours or just hope for the best?
Biggest hit are graded comics. I have seen 80 to 90% hit in many of cases.
Kevin, I have massive respect for you. Thank you for all you do. We get things moving Wegetthingsmoving
We get things moving!!!
Love your videos! Does the new cat have a name?
Not yet. There is a family battle over the name. I’m sure BRM will win.
Dibit. Nice bag!
I'm guessing apparel is about to get some serious action on eBay because Poshmark's new fee structure is likely to drive buyers to other platforms.
They added a buyer side fee. eBay should send PM a gift for that decision that's hitting in Q4. 🙄
I have still in box Star Wars figures.. I can send the pictures or the items I am a widow and 65 yrs old I’m in need of making my home safe for me therefore I need money

I used to sell just shoes and i was at 20k for my 90 day. I started including clothing and it dropped down to 10k. Im still selling the clothing so i wouldn't say it's dead. It's just the shoes sell for more money per item.
