I just started doing eBay 4 months ago to be home to take care of my mother…. I’ve work it every single day for hours and 4 months later, 198 items sold and close to 500 listed now…. It’s been ALOT of work, but it is paying off. I can work it day or night depending on mom’s needs and she LOVES helping with it. It’s given her a purpose.

I taught elementary school for a short while. It IS a mind set. I would tell my kids, never say CAN'T, say I'll keep trying and those kids who kept trying usually succeeded which in turn gave them confidence to try again. I am a part time reseller and i also have a space in an antique shop, I LOVE what I do and am always looking for another way to " make it work". BE POSITIVE and you will make it happen.

Kevin you hit the nail on the head here. I have left multiple fb groups because it was full of posts with this mindset of blaming Ebay for all of their problems. Ebay is just a platform, but the success of the seller is 100% up to them. Ecommerce in general is full of ups and downs. I left my job last September to resell fulltime which I still do, but some weeks are not home runs so I adapted to where I can still resell full time and work for myself but I incorporated gigwork into my business as a second income stream which actually I've found goes hand and hand with reselling. I can go out and make $25-30 an hour doing Doordash, Uber eats, and Walmart spark on my own schedule and why I'm out I go to thrift stores during slow times or mailing out sales I've made. I found a way for self employment to work for me on my own terms

Hi Kevin. My husband and I have been reselling for a couple of years now. We are 50 yrs old now and have 2 boys, 26 and 16. We started out just trying to get rid of the boys' things from when they were younger and have now been reselling things we find in the wild. We go to Thrift Stores, Estate Sales, Rummage Sales and things have just been growing. Yes, prices have gone up, but the deals are there if you look. Watching you and a couple other KZitem has been invaluable. We have been going through some hard times the last couple of months and the focus shifted to them. We have reset ourselves and we have been listing on eBay every day for the last week or so and we have generated about $200 in sales in the last 3 days. In my opinion, you HAVE to list at least a few items a day to keep your store relevant in the search engine and to have success. Promoted listing is not the answer, you can do it just by listing a few a day. Thank you and your family for l you do! Carrie Lil This, Lil That Vintage & Antiques.

If a item isn't selling then you may have adjust pricing and or description. I have been selling for 24 years on ebay and I don't plan to quit. It helps me pay the bills. People can always cross post as well to increase the chances of selling their items. I work a full time job and I work on my ebay selling ALL the time!!

Last year my eBay sales just kept going down but after Christmas I thought I'd try something new. Whilst all the shops had their January sales on I started buying sale items and listing them on eBay. I'll list anything, if I think I can make a profit I'll give it a go. I've made a few mistakes along the way but on the whole I've done well. My profit margin per item is less with new items but I'm selling 10 times more than I was. I still pick up the odd used item along the way but the majority of my inventory is now brand new goods. Lately, my family have all been sorting out their wardrobes and have been dropping off bags of used clothes for me so I now have hundreds of items of clothing waiting to be sorted and listed. I'm going to start with the coats, boots, sweaters and cardigans ready for the colder weather coming and see how they go. I rarely sell clothes but I'll give it a go, if it doesn't work for me I haven't lost anything as they were all free anyway. You just have to keep trying and if things go wrong try and figure out if there was something you could have done differently and don't make that mistake again.

I started listing again -shipping next day and the sales went up. If you got a good store you need to just be in the retail mindset and don’t just assume people are going to find you… you need to go to the people. Lots of listings - quality listings. whatever it takes. And that’s how it’s works!

I 100% agree with this philosophy. When I learned years ago to have a "growth mindset", it shifted my way of thinking. If you just look at the problem, you will give up. If you think instead, "what can I do differently?" it helps to see that there's always room for improvement. It is a life skill to think this way. Excuses are rooted in self-pity/woe-is-me. Most people can come up with things that aren't perfect in their lives... and ways that the cards that have been dealt were bad... but if we just focus on those things, we're stuck in chains. Reselling and being self-employed in general requires the growth mindset 100%

On Ebay since 1997. I know a LOT about a few things and SOME about most things, jewelry being my expertise, love costume jewelry, easy to ship, high returns on investment (usually) - and I agree, no one knows everything. I can go into any thrift shop, even the ones that GL's everything (they don't actually) and I can find something to turn a decent profit. It's out there guys, gotta research, and know what to look for....the other day, I found no jewelry at a shop, so I decided to look around at other items and wandered into men's ties, where I found a Gucci and a Hermes, worth big money, so, the lesson here, even for me, is don't get tunnel vision....

I find that most people try to force success on eBay when it takes a lot of time to sell stuff (usually) because they want to be lazy and not work as an employee for another company.......Most of them want to buy 100-200 things and then sell them immediately.....That's not how eBay works, you have to list every day, you have to have 1000's of listings of good stuff that will sell in order to sell a very small percentage of it daily........The icing on the cake is most people are clueless when it comes to buying/sourcing......They pay up, they pay more than they should and they buy s***** that is not popular, is poor quality or takes a long time to sell.......Most people should not resell, they will never have the mindset to be a good picker.......

Estate Sale or over priced for resellers, unless you go back on the day they have 50% off. At one estate sale droped the price by 80% at the end to get things moving. One person I follow on the last day everything is free.

I coached, or co-coached, my son's baseball team for 3 years. Ugg! I don't know how you did it for so many years. Parents, other teams coaches, and once in awhile a player could make it a nightmare for a volunteer position. I only did it because of my son. LOL

It would be very easy to get discouraged with ebay were my sales tanking. However, after 7 years my sales are consistently good. Why? I think because during the 7 years I have become a better reseller improving my picking, listing, pictures, shipping, customer service skills. Ebay has become more challenging, but I have always been able to offset that with savvy strategies.

Yes I look for the stuff they missed I found three iPods for $15 last year that that I sold two of within 24 hours for $150 from a lady’s yard sale that was she so starkly stated,“ no one was getting over on her, I looks up things on eBay before I price them.” Funny thing was this was close to 1pm and my last stop. I passed on a few pieces cause they were too high. But I’m sure she didn’t sell them either. Don’t get discouraged just keep grinding. I still hit flea markets, garage sales, yard sales ,estate sales, I even work with a few close friends that are resellers too. I’ll find a good deal one way or the other.

As a disabled single mom of teens I had no way to make extra money. But i refused to let my kids have less. I started selling the sometimes free and cheap kids meals toys at garage sales. I made $2000 doing that in one year, and I owe it all to Kevin. I resale for groceries and Christmas.

💯 SPOT ON! What you think about you bring about and thoughts become things. Flipping that negative mindset would do so many people good….if only they knew 😊 Thanks for the reminder Kevin 🙌
