Had a garage sale today. We are overloaded with so much stuff due to the estate we bought in September and with Ebay and Craigslist being so slow we decided to squeeze in a garage sale before winter weather hits. Best garage sale we've had. $3700.00! Woo Hoo!! In addition to the money, we got rid of some really large stuff that has been taking up so much room. A bunch of large trunks, a dresser, assorted side tables, three complete dining room sets, another set of 4 dining chairs and tons of smalls. Actually kind of tempted to get a bunch more sorting done and have another one early December. So much work but very tempting.

Definitely more text messages, some calls and say right in my ads not to bother to email.

I have a signed Willie McCovey  jersey that isn't worth much so I'm waiting for it to (hopefully) appreciate. I also have some gold coins.

Sold a few things in the last couple days but still very slow. Still reading up on the EBAY search engine and it seems like most of the stuff I'm finding to improve sales just really doesn't pertain to the kind of stuff I am selling. You know, unique collectible stuff as opposed to large quantities of new common stuff. I'm dealing with hundreds of boxes of unique vintage items which seem to all have value (based on what I am seeing in closed listings on EBAY) but it is just so frustrating to spend hours and hours sorting, photographing and listing stuff to have 2 or 3 things sell or get a bid each day. Then you get the nonpayers! I had one lady buy a necklace for $131.00 and took over 3 weeks to pay. I feel like I am sitting on a potential gold mine of stuff but just can't sell it. I have managed to make back my initial investment but still have two storage units full of stuff costing me more money each month, one all furniture (even harder to sell) so thats frustrating also.  Furthermore, I can't go to storage auctions anymore because I already have too much stuff and I LIKE going to storage auctions! Actually went to one recently just for fun with no intention of bidding.

Sorry, needed to vent a little......

Wow, hard to say. Not the kind of stuff that would interest me but would think it would go for at least $300-$400. Great for someone with a physical store but that's not me.

I have listed quite a few new things lately and it seems like no one is buying. Has anyone else noticed a slow down? Craigslist also.

If you had just sold $220,000 in a month (with a net according to RFR of about 10%) would YOU let other people here know what the product line was ? I know I wouldn't and that's why I never asked him. He won't tell anyone here about it that's for sure. 

Yeah, I guess I wouldn't tell either.  Mostly I can't fathom the work involved if not drop shipping. I would imagine it's something pre-boxed that just requires slapping on a label but even so....
