Awe, I feel bad now. That orange mug that is $45.98 is mine. I 'm a single mom with 2 kids with autism. Since they don't have school anymore this year, i'm trying to build them a sensory gym in my apartment. But I'm selling most of my mug collection (in my bigger store tho)....cause the gym is more important than my love of mugs.
@@chrismadden7127 I was replying this to Commonwealth picker because I'm in Virginia Beach and him and I have had several conversations on his channel.
Long time fan. Taking Amazon in Etna, Ohio one day at a time. Several C-19 cases at my warehouse. Sucks. Be healthy and safe and thanks for your videos. ❤
That's pretty flattering on the mugs etc in my opinion, i remember you sitting on your couch doing haul videos, i actually got interested in your channel and yourself when you were repairing flood damage as i was dealing with loosing my house in the flood that year as well, you did good bubba!!
That is super sweet of you to tell the buyer to keep the car and expect the right one in a few days. One eBay seller did that for me when the color of the item was different from the photo. I would have sent it back, but they didn't want it back, then they refunded me and sent me a bunch of free items! I have had sellers send the wrong item and then just cancelled my order. I think that's weird. Good Job for being an above the rest seller, A+++!!!
If I had enough money to retire. I would hire someone to do all my listing. And i would go enjoy all the thrifting and garage sales. Lol give someone a career and still enjoy it.
thats' what i was thinking. You could get a big place to put all the items higher a few people to list and ship. And you just do the fun stuff like going hunting for items.
I only watched 2 seconds of this one tonight (have seen it before), but I LOVE the animation that has the "+ shipping" fall down 'on top' of the shed ... NICE!
Lonnie, you know once yard sales, estate sales, thrift stores, and reselling are in your blood, it's always there. Me, I'd quit my job, but I could do my woodworking and reselling full time. I'm a subscriber and want to thank you for the videos and helpful information.
Being a new seller, I've run into a couple of things that I needed to contact ebay for. I simply used the email feature and they got back to me within a few hours and were able to solve my issue. They also offered to call me, so that is also an option once you email them, depending on what the problem is. So far, I'm actually impressed with how great "seller" service is at Ebay, especially since they have limited staff at the moment. No complaints on my end! Thanks for your video, I'm learning a ton from you!
Oh Mr. Lonnie... Drive the knife deeper.. That was my Shed Flips mug and Fairy bridge that sold for .99 cents.. I knew that some day it would get back to you... Just for that you owe me a box cutter.. Just kidding on the cutter.. No I am not.. I am a long time viewer.. I just loved your first video.. Keep up the great work... I have a store, but am way behind on listings...I have a lot of cool stuff to list.. Still have a full time job...Thanks Bro, Gary from Past Again store...
Love watching these videos when you answer a ton of eBay and reseller questions. I like the others too but it gets pretty annoying watching you sell baseball cards while mine sit lol. But like you say its getting sold to your viewers and that's a pretty loyal following there, I am beginning to find out!
I agree with you on the responsibility all the way to delivery. Once sold a big game fishing reel on ebay to a buyer in canada. (Way before ebay started its international shipping program) Filled out all the customs forms etc... When it crossed the border though, things got tricky. Customs held it. Customer contacted me to let me know what happened. They wanted to charge the guy over $1000 to release it! I immediately got ahold of UPS to see what the heck happened. After a week of going back and forth, we finally got the shipment released. My buyer didnt have to pay the fine, but UPS did eat that fine as they were at fault for messing up the shipment documents. Keep those customs forms receipts if you ever ship directly out of the country! That was the only thing that saved my buyer, and my butt, as i was able to prove i filled everything correctly.
The Amazon Pantry boxes do, indeed, come in handy. I keep some in the back of my reselling dungeon to store my recycled packing materials---bubble wrap, packing paper, shipping boxes, etc...
Just shipped wrong item out this week too unfortunately it wasn't cheap and it wasn't a viewer. Shipped the right one and hoping the buyer sends back the wrong one!
Last Thursday I checked on an item I had bought and tracking said it had been delivered that morning to a PO box in OK, but I have a street address in IN. I contacted the seller about it and she contacted the PO. I looked later and it was now marked mis-sent instead of delivered and it arrived Monday. I was happy with the seller, but I do believe she could file the complaint, but I couldn't. So the sale wasn't complete just because she had dropped it with the USPS. I did give her positive feedback.
This goes out to Logan or anyone else on eBay. eBay is closed for phone support right now. How you listing work is if you have 250 free listing a month and $15,000 Listied and sold. #1 You can have a maximum of 250 items listed a month. If you have 250 already listed and next month rolls over you may still have those 250 still up and as you add more listings. Then some of your old items relist they will count against the 250. Now you also may have up to $15,000 worth of products in value as items up for sale and the cost of items sold.
Regarding the mugs. Like I always tell people who tell me they see people asking blank amount of money for an item on Ebay. I ask them have you checked the completed listings? They usually say, what are completed listings? Asking and getting are two different animals completely. Many just don't get that until 5 years later when they still have the items.
In reference to your comments on pirate ship being a bit more expensive, I noticed the other day i checked pirate ship and it said the cheapest way to ship was cubic mail @ 8.15 so i bought the label. Randomly checked ebay after that and priority mail was 7.80 with my discount. Definitely something i started double checking just to make sure. Good advice & enjoyed the video while listing
I would still resell. I do it because I enjoy it, especially finding things worth listing. Being able to make money while doing it is icing on the cake
One exception to the tracking system is when the USPS says they tried to deliver but could not for some reason. I had one where some sort of animal issue prevented the delivery. eBay sided with me when the buyer complained.
If you sell multiple items to the same buyer, the items are on one invoice and you can adjust the shipping and the buyer pays the adjusted shipping. No need to refund a portion of the shipping and the seller is not paying extra ebay and paypal fees for shipping fees they didn't receive.
I sell mostly cosmetics and false INAD cases are so common for me. I always require things to be returned (since most people won't actually return once they realize I'm not falling for their false claim) but the ones that do usually send back their old, empty product.
At least you can claim it wasn't returned in original condition. I recently had one return and the power supply was missing/kept and I stated it wasn't returned in original condition. The case was closed in my favor as the buyer was unwilling to return all parts.
If I became rich- I would take time off, travel for a few years, then prob out of boredom and out of the love of what I do Id be right back into reselling. I started reselling in 1998, its in my blood. Now, id be like you - I would not mess with 15 dollar stuff no more. I wouldnt need 10k items in my store and have to ship out 40-50 items everyday. I would find a niche like Vintage toys and only do nice rare higher end stuff. If i only had a couple hundred items in store, that would be ok.
regarding the question that asked about pricing and switching from USPS to Fedex.... What happens occasionally for me....I'll offer Fedex or Priority for calculated shipping. The customer will pick Fedex because it is cheaper for them (typically due to distance). When I then go to print, occasionally, USPS priority will be cheaper due to the discount you get from eBay or if you end up doing Cubic on Pirate Ship. So... in this case, with priority, it ends up getting their quicker than the original Fedex that the customer selected. Almost like the reverse of the question you were asked.
lol. Everyone is a "scalper". Life is all about making that money any way, shape or form you can! You can't say "I mark up this way and it's ok, but you mark up this way and it's not ok". It's a free for all out there. Everything and every item is fair game and the only law is "money in my pocket!"
If I found a multi million dollar score I'd most definitely keep reselling. I'm addicted to garage sales anyways so I have to unload the stuff. I would hire employees to do the selling, and just be the boss of that side of the business.
You can also contact Ebay via the messaging/Email thing within the Ebay website. They do respond. The downside is that you get a different Ebay person responding each time you respond back with additional information. Each Ebay person seems unaware with what previous Ebay people have answered or requested. It's a very tedious process but eventually, I got the problem solved. I don't understand why Ebay can't take support calls with the support people answering calls from home.
Commenting on the question about finding a "Guy" to buy from. What about going to a storage unit auction ( when things normalize) and passing out business cards to buyers for what your looking for? Any thoughts on this?
Great question from Silverhair Stacker. I'm solver0haired too, at least what I have left around the edges. Here's the deal ...I'm not expecting any huge windfall but I already have three pensions plus [aid hospitalization coming in for life ... so I don't need to work anymore, ever. But life's _BORING_ . I don't like golf and I don't drink or watch sports, so what else is there to do ;-) I'm not a reseller now but I am anxious to move back to the USA in a few months and get into it ... being, as Lonnie said, very choosy, but working at it every day. It'll keep me young and active and learning different markets and collecting the best items will be fun. Many of you here may know Chris Lin from Daily Refinement. Chris and I have had a similar conversation on this subject. I mentioned that reselling is something one can enjoy well into retirement years and Chris called reselling on eBay the "golf" of the retail world LoL. Short answer? I would not stop reselling.
Cool video! I work as a Medical Technologist at the local hospital here. I handle and test specimens. I do the tests the doctors and nurses order. Have a great day.
I asked a question (online) of eBay Customer Service yesterday (on a Saturday) and got two responses fairly quickly and they solved my problem with an Unpaid Item. I got my Unpaid Item Assistant turned off. It was turned on and set to 30 days! I have no idea how that happened!
Lonnie. Have you tried using dry erase marker on items (for their custom sku) instead of stickers? I have found that the dry erase wipes right off the plastic packaging .
when you picked the blue car off the shelf, there were 2 items beside it that were dogs of some sort. What are they made out of? What arre they & if you have them listed, will you post the link? Thank you.
I've seen so much bad behavior from other sellers as a buyer on eBay. Seller sends me the wrong item, seller tells me once I send the wrong item back at my expense they will refund the shipping and send out the correct one. Item doesn't arrive, seller tells me I can go ahead and open a claim with USPS "if I want to".
haa, I think about that all the time, but I think like you, i would probably be more selective and concentrate on bigger ticket items. I collect so many things though, so I like to go out and hunt anyways, so I imagine I would not totally stop
@1:45 I agree, if the COG is really low, I just let them keep the mistake rather than for me to pay for return postage. It's so rare, no biggy to me. Thanks for the BOLO video.
Like your content. A question for all sellers- As sellers we get a surcharge on final value shipping fees. Do you think charging shipping offsets the final cost Ebay charges us on shipping fees if we use free shipping?
I'll usually offer partial refund something make them happy not loss of paying shipping return it and then paying shipping when you have to sell it again at lower rate because now its not new.
I think you were thinking that if you have all this money why keep doing all this work? But if you did have all this money, why not higher people to list and to ship, get a bigger shed. Now you don't have to work as much, and you can still do all the fun stuff, like going to garage sales or thrifting. all the fun of reselling but with out all that work.
Global shipping program said its unavailable at the moment...it cost me a fortune for small packages and I had to send them via the post office which wasn’t too happy about it..she says u can do this online u know...yep I know and I would have if it were operational at the moment lol...duh like I want to be wasting this much time and money...I lost money due to the double cost of shipping compared to what eBay said it would cost...so I manually shut off all international sales on my listings...nope not for me
A couple years ago silverhair stacker influenced me into to start selling on ebay, to buy coins for my collection. Last year I made 19k doing it and I've just been saving money 😂
Ive had to contact ebay over email for 2 cases in the last 30 days and they were handled in an hour. Before this COVID-19 bs It was at least 2 days before you would get a response to an email or case.

Tough to complain about reselling at a higher price when it's how ebay reselling works in the first place.

woooo hooooo!!!!!!! Glad to see a video. Keep on keeping on Lonnie!!!!!
Those stimulus checks hitting. Sales been great.
If you have USPS My Choice you can do package intercept and return to sender. Depending on the item cost vs the intercept cost is up to you.
I wouldn't quit re-selling! The re-selling game just changes and probably becomes very interesting.

When you refund all or part of a payment through Paypal, Paypal does pay back their portion of the fees.
They do reverse the fees, but the .30cent transaction fee stays with you. Also noticed that sales tax do not reverse with partial refunds.
I would be honored if someone resold my mug if I had one . Great video as always .

Lonnie I bought the fairy bridge & your mug from my new friend Gary for RK Treasure Center 1K giveaway. I even did a really bad YT video about it.
The KISS item was awesome
Tbh I think it would make me resell more cuz then I'd have no limit on to what I could buy to resell and I know myself and I would go wild.
All the fun, none of the risk.
Lonnie, I’m giving a 2nd Generation mug away on my channel right now. I’m not selling it for profit though. lol
Global shipping program said its unavailable at the moment...it cost me a fortune for small packages and I had to send them via the post office which wasn’t too happy about it..she says u can do this online u know...yep I know and I would have if it were operational at the moment lol...duh like I want to be wasting this much time and money...I lost money due to the double cost of shipping compared to what eBay said it would cost...so I manually shut off all international sales on my listings...nope not for me
I def wouldnt retire. I would just hire someone to do the hard parts. Shipping/listing, and wpuld source full fime
Thats exactly what I would do. Sourcing is so much fun
A couple years ago silverhair stacker influenced me into to start selling on ebay, to buy coins for my collection. Last year I made 19k doing it and I've just been saving money 😂
I would quit for income purposes but would continue for the thrill and fun of it at my leisure.. my terms. Great question!
Three mugs have sold since this video came out!
Ive had to contact ebay over email for 2 cases in the last 30 days and they were handled in an hour. Before this COVID-19 bs It was at least 2 days before you would get a response to an email or case.
