This morning while playing spider solitaire on the computer, got an e-mail saying I made a sale. Just a music CD.
Instantly printed packing slip grabbed a box ready to go and packed it. Printed packing and went to the post office. 14 minutes after getting the sale, post office had it in their possession.
This afternoon, I added a new listing, two books on the FDNY and in less than an hour got a message they had sold.
Could this be a good sign???????

Sounds promising. Someone spending their Christmas money.
As an aside: I never physically ship within the "golden hour".

I have had to pull them back out of the mailbox more than a time or two.

Way to go i hope it continues to get better for you. As for shipping in less than 15 minutes that is superman kind of stuff. LOL

You mean because they may buy more items and want combined shipping?

I think @buyselljack2016 refers to this. >> How buyers can cancel an order | eBay
Scroll down to "Cancel an order you made within the last hour".

For lakefor94. So far only had one person cancel an order. Placed the order around 9:00 pm, and asked to cancel even before I woke up the next morning.
For 4pawsup, if traffic is light i can make the post office in about 5 minutes. This time I only had to wait in line about a minute. Traffic was very light, and the only traffic light turned green right as I pulled up to it.
That part went okay. Now if only the sun (if it still exists) will show itself, I will be happy.

Very slow 4th quarter. Slowest I've ever experienced in 12 years as a seller. Prior to 90 days ago I was making 10+ sales a day. Now my average is 2-3 a day. I've had two cancellations this week. Am a premium store subscriber with my number of listings maxed out. I also promote at 4% across the board.

I always do well right after Christmas. I figure it's a combination of Christmas money and people buying some things that they had hope to receive as gifts, but didn't.

I took 9 to the Post Office Tuesday.
I took 16 to the Post Office today.
I have 11 to pack for the Post Office tomorrow.
Before Christmas, I was lucky to get one a day on the days I ship (Mon/Wed/Fri).

Still very dead here. I have to go at least a decade back to remember such a paltry November December
