Hi, Princess!
Haven't been around for a while as I've been too busy, but I had to comment on this. Believe me, GentlyFeral has it right. I believe it was last July 2nd that I jokingly wrote that all was hopeless now, as our eBay feedback read 666. Now it's about to break 2,000. We've made about 4,500 sales this year and are going strong, especially as we started in January, just as green as grass.
A year ago we wouldn't have had a chance in a thousand of buying the place we are living in, but last week the sale closed and it's ours. That should give you an indication of our opinion of eBay.
The big outfits are starting to take notice and slipping us info as to what they are up to. For instance, I got a list yesterday of every video game that is to come out in the next 6 months, with the invitation to gear up for selling them. Will we? (Grin)
eBay is for real. We sold a bottle (fifth) of wine for $300.00, sold a collection of doll clothes that grossed almost $800.00, and sold a couple of old lamps I bought at a garage sale for $15.00 to a lady in Finland for $81.00, to give only a few examples. My son and I are partners and are having a ball!
All you need is a knowledge of eBay and how to sell. I know you have the latter, because all sales is, is the gift of gab. Hehehehehe!!!
Have fun now!
