Hi, I want to start doing Amazon fba, but we have to help my parents, my mom had a stroke last month and is home now. We had to put it off for next quarter... we are happy she is home 🏡! Doing really well. Have a great weekend 😀! Joe Bee 🐝 from 🇨🇦 🍁 🇨🇦 Canada!
You're awesome Mike!! I feel sorry for the people that haven't found you on TH-cam yet!! I have learned so much from you! Sometimes I want to give up then I watch one of your videos and I can't wait to get to Goodwill again. I just found out they are putting in a Saver's nearby very soon. Btw I'm turning 61 next month so you are one of my favorite resellers. I can relate to so much of what you say. Just ignore my silly profile pic and name, I'm using my son's old account from yrs. ago but I will be updating very soon lol...Happy Thrifting!! :))
Wow every year I am amazed at how much your sales are especially for a one man show. I'm shocked that you didn't make more on youtube though. I watched a youtuber that said he hired someone to edit his old videos. He had them make a bunch of shorts, even though they don't pay much he said that it really increased his subs. I think your content is great and I've learned a lot! Thanks for sharing and hope 2024 is even better.
Love this story about Rose. She's right up there with ladies who made a difference in our lives, like Mary Kay Ash. Both businesses still going strong.
I enjoy your honesty and your humility. Keep up the good work. Very surprised there aren't more likes to your videos. Your provide an enormous amount of info. You have inspired us to start reselling on eBay again. Currently selling vintage toys on Etsy. Thank you for sharing your experiences with everybody. We would love to have a copy of Atomic Habits.
Thanks for watching Randy. The books are taken as of now. I always have more down the road. Thank you for the kind words. I love doing the videos. I have a nice following of watchers.
I find a few things at garage sales in the summer, but in my area there is only one small thrift store, and I am lucky to get 2 items a week. Very small town, and big ticket items for cheap are literally nonexistant here with mostly middle class households, and people just don't give the good stuff away.
Fantastic breakdown! I’m a very small fish compared to that. I Do this as much as I can when I have time but I love it! It’s hard to call it work at times but it does take a lot of time, effort, and energy to build. I retire from the USMC soon and am thinking about diving in and seeing what I can do when I have more time to invest in it. Thanks for the video!
Awesome work ethic and the love that you have for doing what you’re doing! Congratulations on your numbers! Keep going and enjoy your two months off every year! Maybe I missed it but do you split up your vacation time? As an old retailer, I could never be out of the store for very long. I can’t imagine shutting down my mind for that long. LOL! But don’t give away exactly when you’re away because that might not be a good idea. I was also in Loss Prevention, Director of LB., I would split it up into blocks of 2 weeks.
I'm gonna start trying to do this, flippin cool stuff I find on eBay/FB MP. Working on finding 15 things I already have (to go with the 5 DVDs I picked up) to have 20 items, to list 5 a week for a month and see What Do/Learn Things. I'm at a point where I can't physically/mentally continue my career, and not a lot of Good Jobs out there for a semi-retired line cook.
Big thumbs up on the kindness of giving Atomic habits away. Im going to look for it when Im thriting and read it. What you are doing, which i dont have to tell you is long term kindness. "Give a man a fish, he eats for a day. Teach a man to fish, he eats for a lifetime." 👍👍👍👍👍
Loved the video and I think you are doing a great job helping us out here on youtube. I do have a question and i’m sorry if it was in the video and I missed it. How many books did you sell in 2023 on amazon? I was curious what your average profit per book and how many you send in each week to get those sales. Thanks a bunch and look forward to more videos.
I forgot that. 10,000 plus books laster year. I try to put in on average 30 books a day. ASP per book I believe was around $18. I might have to break that down in another video.
Nice summary of revenue stream and platform expenses, but what about other expenses that are not Ebay or Amazon related? Thanks for sharing your personal info.
Love your information Mike. I am kinda a numbers person. One thing that no one has ever mentioned about in the area of fees andcwhat ebay rakes out isvthe sales tax. Does ebay charge the seller separately or isvthat part of what us taken out if the selling price? I jope that you understand what I am asking. Thank you.
@@goldenstatepicker Thank you sir. I have heard others keep mentioning sakes tax but never say how it goes. That is the way it should be of course, so I don't understand why others don't say it. I greatly appreciate your information and time. Have a good night sir.
Just want to thank you for all the videos and education. It’s truly inspired me to move forward with selling on eBay and just also getting started on Amazon FBA too. I’m 61 as well and work full time but this is setting me up to retire at 65 and hopefully have a vibrant business. I’m having fun which is the most important. So thank you!!!!
Not sure how much that is. I think there are algorithms that do certain things, but to what extent we really don't know. Thanks for watching my channel.
Hey Mike. Just curious if you're getting a glitch on Amazon fba. When you click work on shipment to send out a box are you getting an error that says the page you requested was not found? My girlfriend and I are getting this same error. Going to give it some time to see if it fixes itself. Just wondering if you're getting this as well? Thanks.
Figured out a work around... Clicking on the date and time link on the left of the screen brought me to the usual screen to work on the shipment. For some reason the actual 'work on shipment' link isn't working. Oh well. Thanks for listening. 😎
Well done my friend - thanks for sharing - most of all, the inspiration. I'm happy with my first year (11.5 months) and nowt it's onward and upward. Best part, I'm only competing with myself - it helps to keep my head in that realm.
Thanks for sharing all of this valuable info, a real inspiration. I'd be very glad to have a copy of Atomic Habits. I've been sticking with a consistent listing habit on eBay since Jan. 1 and I'm already getting daily sales!

Yeap! Not easy in the smaller towns. Have to really get the word out you look for stuff.

Thanks for the service. My son-in-law Adam has been on my videos and is trying to get to retirement from the Coast Guard.

Yes, I was talking total for the year. I take 2 week blocks and leave my store open with time away. Amazon never have to close it.
I would love to have Atomic Habits. Thank you for everything you teach us!
The books have been taken. I will have more keep watching you never know when I'll have more.
Plus if you skip out on paying just for example $5k on $22k earnings by the time they audit you it turns to $11k-$12k. Just pay em.
Yeap, they will eventually get you.
Just found your video and it's 2 months old...but I'd love a copy of Atomic Habits if you happen to come across another!
I'm out. I occasionally find them and they just pop up from time to time.

atomic habits book still available?
Book is gone. Keep looking for more in future videos.
damn Mike you beat me by 14k and i don't travel 2 months.
Love it.
I am guessing the reason you sell so much is eBay promotes you for free because you list a lot every day. I don't have time to list much.
Not sure how much that is. I think there are algorithms that do certain things, but to what extent we really don't know. Thanks for watching my channel.
Would love to have a copy of Atomic Habits! I already emailed you hope that's OK! 😅 Thanks for providing our community with inspiration and hope!
The books have been taken. I will have more keep watching you never know when I'll have more. ALL THE BEST TO YOU!
Opps if you did I'm sure I got the email.
How many books is your inventory in amazon
2000

@@goldenstatepicker thanks. No worries. It resolved by clicking the date link instead. 👍
I would live to have Atomic Habits.

Your videos are extremely helpful.

Well done my friend - thanks for sharing - most of all, the inspiration. I'm happy with my first year (11.5 months) and nowt it's onward and upward. Best part, I'm only competing with myself - it helps to keep my head in that realm.
That's the only way to do it. Thanks for watching
I have heard of that book but never heard any excerpts. Those you read are really good.
It's one of the best books.
Thanks for sharing all of this valuable info, a real inspiration. I'd be very glad to have a copy of Atomic Habits. I've been sticking with a consistent listing habit on eBay since Jan. 1 and I'm already getting daily sales!
