路3 weeks ago 路 Edited@inhawaii Congrats! I would leave you a MEME, but the people who patrol these boards do not want me leaving MEMEs anymore. So, just close your eyes and picture yourself in a MEME, stretched back with a lot of attractive women around you fanning you because you are @inhawaii , king of reselling. 馃榿

路3 weeks agoIt's nice to sell stuff, but when stuff sells too quickly I worry I missed something in my research to find the right price for it. Of course when it's sold there's no "take backs" to try again. I had one coin I listed based on two solds I found, and then it sold in 5 min. At some point later when I was reviewing the catelog I found out it was listed for a ridiculously high price. Perhaps the other two that sold were significantly undervalued. I went based on that to list mine.

路3 weeks agoI have been thrilled with the number of items listed for years which have sold recently.
I am afraid to jinx this trend by listing new items.

路3 weeks agoA couple years ago, I listed a Play Station console for parts and it sold in a couple minutes.
I messaged the guy and told him I was about to list another one and ask if he wanted it and he ended up buying both of them.
I like it when things sell quick.

路3 weeks agoI had a buyer in my other store purchase a few stamps from me, and I noticed his town. I had a bunch of QV stamps postmarked from his town, so I offered them to him. He was interested, so I made up a listing and he bought them within a few days. Very interesting that in a town of some 1000 people in the middle of nowhere, I happen to find one stamp collector to sell my postmarked stamps to.

路3 weeks agoyep,love it.........but are you sure the buyer isn't on some list as no good? That the address isn't a vacant wetland? That the $$ are something you can afford to lose......
And, obviously, you didn't price it high enough.....and you are destroying ebay by undervaluing your product........
