These are gold nuggets you just dropped Casey. Some folks just wanna fight very battle and come out as the winner of every argument and stand their ground in every situation, just move on! you get yourself a peace of mind by just letting it slide, which helps you to be productive in the long run and make 50 times more than what you just lost, instead of feeling like crap for a shipping fee or a refund or feel like being taken advantage of, you walk out a winner every time you don’t let something silly affect your day and productivity. Just move on!
I took your advice from a previous video to lower prices on ebay by $1. I did that with multiple listings with multiple watchers and made many sales so far! Great advice!
This is why I picked my name of my business. POSITIVELY DIVORCED. I wanted to make a NEGATIVE into a POSITIVE! I have feedback that is mostly POSITIVE. I dont sweat the small stuff anymore...Im also a CANCER SURVIVOR too so that changes perspective. KEEP GOING people!!! BLOCK DELETE people who have SERIOUS mental health problems.
I agree!!! Social Media is a time suck and it gives me anxiety! People say things on social media that they would never say in person. It’s crazy. Also, people care too much about what other people, mostly complete strangers, are doing. It doesn’t matter.
Sucks, but the truth is tons of folks are either addicted to looking for shit to be angry about, or they get themselves off by constantly seeking out ways to reaffirm how right they are and how wrong everyone else is. A brain totally programmed by trauma.
@@GrimFlips its sad honestly to see. Theres literally people who sit on Reddit all day just shit talking anyone and everyone anonymously. We found one and exposed her as a 65 year old lady in the south and her posts were literally toxic and disgusting. The minute her real info was leaked (not by me) and the local police contacted she literally disappeared. It’s sad and pathetic. Like when did people, especially a 65 year old grow ass senior citizen think it was ok to do this shit?
@@RockstarFlipper Sad... I agree. Granny probably needed about a million hugs from her grandkids and a mouth full of Apple Brown Betty a la mode. Seriously I though, I sometimes have to catch myself and course correct. Aint got time for that. I have a death pile to burn through! Btw, I appreciate how on it you are with keeping us abreast of all the crazy turns on this wild ride. Thanks for the value and great content, man.
If a potential buyer asks me a question that is already in the listing I don’t answer. Most of the time is measurements and I always include it in the listing. Hate it when people don’t read
Omg. Casey. THIS. THIS. THIS. I am sick of all the complaining in FB groups. It’s intolerable. Spend the time figuring your business out. Pivot. Be flexible. Adjust. Yes, move on! Thank you!!!
Too true, man! Social media has ruined so much and made places for people to bitch about ridiculous shit from behind a handle name. I’d delete it all if it wasn’t part of pushing out my stuff for sale. My TH-cam channel is super small but even there I get snide comments from jack-offs looking to start a fight with someone they don’t even KNOW! Oy veh!
I have never understood how much some people will fight a return, they lose far more in time value! Then when you do offer the free return most of the time they never ship it, and if they do, just relist it and move on!
Admiral Akbar says, "It's a trap!" You made me post....😂 But, in the meantime, I 8x a Nutcracker in a sale on a best offer! Really good rant video, even though you got me.
I’m not on Facebook anymore at all. I only deal with texting and calling people. I don’t care about negativity. I have enough to deal with than negativity.
I make it a practice to scroll by. Wanted to tell you. I finally followed your advise. Consistently listing everyday, going through old listings to fix them, and lowering prices. Made great sales last weekend and during this week until I got the flu yesterday. Been resting in bed for last 2 days. No listing = no sales.
Casey, I'm going to try and enter all the words to describe my listing in the "Description" field. Because I'm getting too many questions about the product. Because EB doesn't show the description until the bottom of the page. I answer a question ONCE, and that's it.
Thank you so much for bringing up the subject. People need to worry about their own lies and what they’re doing. You can’t control the uncontrollable thank you so much.
So true, i learned that early on when I used to work in a brick and mortar. Get straight to the point or keep it moving. Life is way too precious to deal with nonsense like that
You are not wrong! No one likes getting dragged down by customers. A simple question deserves a simple direct answer. I had someone who accidentally purchased an item and wanted to send it back. They obviously couldn't read and brought the package to UPS instead of USPS. Then he incessantly messaged me back for an entire day because he couldn't understand what happened. Day two came and he continued to message me. I finally said enough is enough, keep the item and I will refund your $10. I was going to block him but he turned around and gave me positive feedback for my kindness. Sometimes it pays to be kind and understanding. It helps to be able to move past everything.
Yes it does, you never know what someone is going thru. They obviously were stressed out or in grief if they confused ups & USPS. God bless you for being patient 😊
Nobody likes returns but they will never go away. My return rate is 3 percent, if I sell 100 items per week I mentally anticipate 3 returns. It used to bother me too, but wants I changed my mindset to accept this will always be a problem in an e commerce business I stopped wasting mental energy on it
Amen! I left facebook in 2012 and haven't regretted it for a minute. TH-cam and the selling platforms are the extent of my "social" media. Who has time for the b.s.?? If you're not getting paid for your presence in some way, there's no point in it. As to the annoying folks on ebay, I don't mind answering questions and I'm happy to engage a bit, but three responses is generally as much as I have patience for. If a buyer/potential buyer is being an asshat, block and move on.
What gets me,is someone asking questions! Lady asks 8 questions about a purse,I had listed. I took plenty of photo's,including the measurements . Question,after question that was in the listing. The last question was would it go with her gray pants!! I blocked her!
What I am really concerned about right now is that eBay is now requiring you submit your photo ID i.e. Drivers license or passport. I DO NOT trust ANY website with is sensitive info PERIOD. Is there anyway around this?
@@tammiecarbohn6796 no. That’s every website. If you can’t trust eBay with a basic drivers license you can’t sell. It’s basic. It’s Safe. Millions of us uploaded it. Relax. Do it. And carry on. There’s far more sensitive information than your drivers license.
I already made that decision after dealing with family messed up with the hurricane...somethings just dont matter. I dont have problems with returns...they always just send it back and I refund them without the shipping...and never had a problem that ebay didnt take care of. Just the sales...but I just work daily...and like you said...move on...stopped politics long ago. Hate TicToc lol
So how many subscribers do you think the niche lady has bought lately? Isn't she your friend? What are your thoughts on people buying subs? She is probably the biggest grifter on TH-cam.
Yes Danni is a friend and business colleague. I am unaware of her "buying subscribers" a quick check shows he had 17 new subscribers per day.. i hardly think someone is "paying" for 17 new subs daily, doesn't make sense. Not to mention subs don't = money. Sub counts are worthless. Only engagement and view counts matter for money. As far as your comment about someone being a "grifter" i assure you there are FAR FAR FAR worse people on the internet like Nicole Snake and others. Don't let reddit or wherever else you are gossiping about Danni with people skew your judgement. is she perfect? No. Am I? No. Noone is. Now what she has or hasn't done, i literally know NOTHING about other than the things people send to me. I have been around her in person at events and never had an issue, she's always been kind to me and I have never been schemed or scammed by her and she honestly does try to help people. The world of the internet would have you believe I'm a grifter, but here we are. While i respect your opinion and your comment and the fact that unlike others you were mostly professional with your comment, i would disagree. I hope you can take a few moments to think on it. Or if you want to share anything with me on my email Rockstarflipper@gmail.com which might convince me otherwise, i would be happy to read it. Cheers
But am I wrong?

Completely agree. People need to focus on getting as much listings done as possible. And not on things that don’t mattee
I took your advice from a previous video to lower prices on ebay by $1. I did that with multiple listings with multiple watchers and made many sales so far! Great advice!
WOOT NICE!!
This is why I picked my name of my business. POSITIVELY DIVORCED. I wanted to make a NEGATIVE into a POSITIVE! I have feedback that is mostly POSITIVE. I dont sweat the small stuff anymore...Im also a CANCER SURVIVOR too so that changes perspective. KEEP GOING people!!! BLOCK DELETE people who have SERIOUS mental health problems.
Since I stopped watching a lot of resellers on TH-cam, my mood has changed and I’m way more positive now
Hear you. Some spend more time calling out and arguing with commenters on their content than just posting about their business content.
I think you watch some negative youtubers then ughh sorry
I agree!!! Social Media is a time suck and it gives me anxiety! People say things on social media that they would never say in person. It’s crazy. Also, people care too much about what other people, mostly complete strangers, are doing. It doesn’t matter.
They can't stop themselves

Absolutely
Blocked a buyer this morning. I dont like blocking, but don't waste my time!
100% agree with what you said. Enjoy your weekend!

I realized this 10 years ago, wasting so much time on FB, I closed my account and never looked back.
I wish I could
Admiral Akbar says, "It's a trap!"
You made me post....😂
But, in the meantime, I 8x a Nutcracker in a sale on a best offer! Really good rant video, even though you got me.
I’m not on Facebook anymore at all. I only deal with texting and calling people. I don’t care about negativity. I have enough to deal with than negativity.
Same. I deleted it 3 years ago and never looked back. Don't miss it one bit
I wish I could
So true!!! Great job reminding us to take charge of our precious time.
It's the only thing we can't get more of
Block them and move on exactly right. Move onto the next sale. Move on to the next listing. Take the next photo. That is exactly right.
So true. I definitely have to work on wasting too much time in various comment sections and worrying about returns and lowball offers.
I make it a practice to scroll by.
Wanted to tell you. I finally followed your advise. Consistently listing everyday, going through old listings to fix them, and lowering prices. Made great sales last weekend and during this week until I got the flu yesterday. Been resting in bed for last 2 days. No listing = no sales.
Oh no you are absolutely right just like returns no big deal like you said just move on DONE!!
INdeed

100%
Thank you for saying what I think constantly. If it doesn't make you better as a person. What is the big deal? Let those people be and be happy. 😊
I don’t have time for that social media garbage!
Many people find a way for the time, it's amazing
Soo
True Casey , peeps dont realize ur time is soo important ..
Thank you for saying what needs to be said! 🥰
It should be said more i think
Thanks, this is a great reminder. Mental stress no bueno being productive is best. Yes, training g myself is great advice.

Anytime!! My inbox is always open

Some people I feel are truly lonely
100% it's just business. Remove emotions from the business. To me it's a game. A game of multiplying my dollars.
Bingo
SPOT ON!
ROCK ON!
That’s why your the Rockstar! 😂
On some platforms people are actually making money doing that but the bulk of them are doing like you say.
@@aharrelson7280 of course. I make money on all the platforms to a point but not to do that nonsense
I agree 110%, I only know two people that can shit post on social media all day and still be "successful", doesnt work the same for the rest of us
Thanks rsf 🙏🙏🙏🙏
This video is right on the button bro!
I just call it as I see it
Absolutely on point. Move on and stop wasting time is great advice.
What little time we have can't be wasted, i hear ya

Hi, been there done that 4yrs ago...stopped and don't respond or post on social media...lol
