Oh and forgot to say, congrats on going full time! I ditched my part time job in mid January. Losing the safety net is scary, but it sure makes you work even harder!
I quit eBay 2 years ago it’s not the same anymore they have gone to greedy and go corporate feeding their shareholders, sadly there is a lot of people living plenty of others sites now to sell and more to come ..
Woohoooo congrats, Simon! I really enjoyed your video, i couldn't help laughing at your zipper struggle, they can be very tricky, heehee! I was wondering if you have your GoPro on a backpack or chest mount and do the.vendors see you filming? Hope you have a wonderful weekend with tons of sales! 🥰
Thanks Dana, that’s so strange to hear from you as I just watched your haul video. 😂😂 Good idea showing how to research Comps. Hope you have an epic weekend as well Simon X
I have to say, the best decision I ever made was to get my time back by sourcing from wholesalers. The downside is that you do get some stuff you wouldn't pick, but honestly, I get hours and hours back of my time - plus it's more cost effective. It's also taught me an important thing and that is that sometimes, I just don't know everything. Brands I'd never have picked up I ended up listing because, well I might as well since I have it in my order....and they sell the fastest.
How much time to wash and iron your buys - then fold, bag up and Sku?. have a huge death pile. I can’t face it. Best wishes I envy your organisation skills
Loving the video, could you possibly do a video explaining what kind of what expenses you can claim back. Would be a massive help as Ive just finished my 1st year of reselling and now we are in a new tax year i could use some experience as to what i can claim and make it easier for this time next year
Hi, thanks for watching, that is such a good idea unfortunately I would be a fraud as I get the accountant to do that for me. hope you have a great week Simon
Hi thanks for the message, I hope you have worked out now that I am very much low cost no cost in my approach to life. I got the Microphone from Amazon at they are called Wireless Lavalier Microphone (Black) They cost £9.99 and been fine so far. not the best quality but ok. Have a great week, Simon
Another very interesting video simon! Question about the ebay calculator app.....am I right in thinking that now that we are in the new financial year as of today, if I was to sell for example, a pair of jeans today that I bought 3 weeks ago (therefore they were bought in the last financial year, and are counted in last year's expenses), would I put on the ebay calculator that they were effectively down as no cost to buy? Thus, it will show a larger profit and will therefore be hit more by tax at the end of this financial year? I'm presuming that as the cost of buying those jeans was made in the financial year that has just ended, they need to be put down as a sale with no initial outlay for this financial year? Hope that makes sense. All the best for this coming year 🙌
Thank you so much for taking the time to watch and comment, I am afraid this will be a bit of a cop out answer because I have no Idea. When it comes to things like this I will alway speak to my accountant. hope you have a great week Simon
Thanks for watching and taking the time to comment. It definitely is something I have considered but the cost of my storage £67 per month I can’t justify £10k + on a garden room. Maybe in the future Have a great week Simon
Well do Si. Good move! Now make sure you nick a bit more time back for less work / more life balance. It’s important! Still a place for you on the boat! Dan 👍🏻
Massive congratulations Simon, so pleased for you. I’m striving to achieve the numbers you produce & look forward to more videos. Take care.

Very very very true, thanks for the support Simon

Well a fun day Simon, a brisk walk around a muddy field in the cold, what could be better. The raising of the VAT threshold must help a little.

i see you have a garden why don’t you build or buy a unit and use some space in the Back.
Thanks for watching and taking the time to comment.
It definitely is something I have considered but the cost of my storage £67 per month I can’t justify £10k + on a garden room.
Maybe in the future
Have a great week
Simon
"All Addas is real not fake" hahahahaha
Yeah the place was so full of fake stuff some sellers have to let you know 😂😂😂
Just shows sellers don't declare holes/defects in clothes at car boots!
Well do Si. Good move!
Now make sure you nick a bit more time back for less work / more life balance. It’s important!
Still a place for you on the boat!
Dan 👍🏻
Thanks Dan appreciate you as always
It’s hard digging for treasure, it takes focus and stamina! Think boot sales are a waste of time. Go bulk!!
Thanks for the comment and the longer I do this the harder it gets, hope you have a great week, Simon
Great video as always, and congrats on going full time 👏🏻🎉🙌🎊
Thank you long time coming
Deffo should have gone on the bouncy castle 😉
That’s why we call it Boot Fairs in Kent
Is that pedham Simon?
That’s the one, may see you there one day 🙏
No fees for clothes on eBay !!!!
