FINALLY Bought My First Unit

Hmm - if it was still in the unit when I got that offer I'd of taken it.  That way I make a quick sale, don't have to move the heavy stuff, and ready for the next auction.

Now - If I had already moved it all out from the unit to my location, I would either pass or do a counter offer so that I keep the items I wanted (shelves).

It all depends on how much time and space you have.  I've sat on inventory for months before it's sold.  Wasn't an issue as I had plenty of space.  When I'm low on space the inventory gets rotated much faster.  Example: cloths get donated to Goodwill more often then not.  I have dozen of totes with jeans, baby cloths, etc. in them.  If they don't generate some interest and sales this Saturday I very well may just give it all to Goodwill.

I had already moved it when I got the offer...plus he was wanting me to deliver.  I counter offered with $1200 for it all but he was stuck on $800.  He was simply trying to low ball me.  It is a "friend" of mine and if he didnt know what I paid for the unit, then he would have probably given me $1200 for it.  Some reason people just hate the fact that somone is making money.  I shouldn't have told him what I paid for it, and definitely learned a lesson on that. 

I am treating this as a hobby, so will never HAVE to sell anything.  I don't get caught up on the return on how much I bought unit for.  But rather what % of retail that I can get for it. 

I am storing it in my garage so its not costing me any extra to store it.  The only problem is if I buy another unit at a great deal, then I will be in a little trouble.  But I have several plans for that.

He wants your labor for free. (finding auction, going bidding, loading, unloading, cleaning) and then to reload and deliver.   Price just got higher..

We have all been there I can pack really well sometime too good... Forget what is stacked under that excreta  but like digging through another storage unit.
