Best 24 hours Ever on eBay
Oh my gosh, I was so pleased when I came down this morning to start listing the rest of the things that I purchased yesterday, but wanted to see what had closed first. Over $300!! What a joy to see that!
I told Greg last night that the sales take time, but that they are just a small part of the whole process, it takes hours to list everything, sometimes it has to be cleaned first, then the pictures, then the copy and listing. When the mood isn't right, it's pure torture! When I'm in the mood then its fun. Last night was torture. Today hasn't been as bad.
Anyway, when I go to the auctions I do spend some money, so, I have to calculate what it costs me to get the products (gas and product….the time I figure is as much of a recreation as a job so I don't calculate in the hours at the sale) before I can say that I made a profit. Then I have to take out the eBay fees, which are high. So Although the gross was good for the last 24 hours, the actual profit margin was only about $170 but Ill take it!)
