Ain't that the truth ?
5 years ago cancer put my life on hold.
I am not the same person, mentally or physically.
...it's not a matter of needing the money, rather, needing to clear out pure gravy inventory that I'm not keen on working through for years on end. The market has changed a bit, but I have plenty here that will sell, for good money.
Strategizing last year after 4 years away, finally finding my groove, and having to do it all over again because eBay IPR switched my business model into something dreadful has nearly broken my spirit. No more tries for single item/combined sales. Just not gonna do it, and deal with the ebay headaches.
Mentally, I don't want to bulk lot the good stuff, but I will....soon.
Physically, I have difficulty moving inventory within my office.
The clutter on this site, as well as my office has taken a toll..
Too much extra work on both fronts...confined home space, confined selling platform, failed clicks over and over when listing, moving boxes here and there, clicking, scrolling, clicking, revising again what didn't stick on ebay forms, scanning, editing, uploading. Ugh. It's exhausting before the shipping aspect comes into play, then start again with other pita's.....
I realize that tilting at windmills here (yoo-hoo! Hello, Trinton) can be fun although counterintuitive. I'm stubborn, and the inequities and instability here are such an easy mark, as unsettling as that thought is. I've had several friends inquire about selling here, and had nothing but warnings for them. Other friends who do sell here are struggling to manage through all the upheaval here.
Should I even consider listing here again? How soon is soon?
That's the real sticking point.
