Each month, we all try to set goals, make plans, or just put together a quick list of the things we want to accomplish, resolve, achieve, or finish during that month. This thread has been a tradition of the Building/Starting An eBay Business boards for as long as I can recall. It's also a chance for those participating to socialize a bit without violating board rules.
So...
- Christmas shopping is beginning. Do you have 4th quarter plans?
- Covid-related shopping seems to be slowing as more businesses continue to open/get closer to normal. What impact do you expect from this?
- How do you plan to accomodate the annual shipping rate increases? Do you think they will be just seasonal or will some part or all of the increases become permanent?
Welcome to all our newest posters! If you have a specific question, try using Board Search to see if it's been discussed, or is still currently being discussed. If not, why not start your own discussion and see what the group can come up with? Remember, no personally identifiable info, for yourself or any other member involved, and not all problem will have reasonable solutions.
So let's take on October 2021 and make it our own!!

If someone could read my solution they were already on the board. And If they could not get to the board they could not read my solution. So, what was the point of posting that?
I think I have an opportunity to spend a night 40 miles out in the Gulf of Mexico on a 36 ft boat this Winter. There would be a group of 5 guys plus the captain. We would fish, eat, drink and have a good time. But the best part would be watching the night sky that far out. We would be far away from the city lights and the normal pollution is not nearly as bad down here as it is up North. Winter down here is the calmest weather and best time to go. I just may do it.
Onward and upward....

Uh... we can find the discussion be entering "What Are Your Goals" into the Search box for the board... just type and wait and a list of discussion threads with matching titles will show up. Select the one you want and away you go. I'd be curious to hear how you got it to work again....
The boat trip sounds interesting, but I'm more of an ice fisher than an open water fisher. When you can drive your car on the water, you're pretty much guaranteed that 'falling overboard' won't be an issue. 🙂 But at least you're heading west.... there's no 'Bermuda Triangle' west of Floriday. 🙂
Interesting factoid: There is a 'Bermuda Triangle in Space' off the southeast coast of South America. It's bad enough that satellites and pretty much anything going thru that section of space in Earth orbit have to take precautions or risk becoming disabled. Scientists have determined that there is a dip in the protective shield that surrounds the planet - the space station files just below this shield - and because of the dip, more cosmic radiation exposure is possible when passing thru that section of orbit. Thank You to "How The Universe Works"!!

I really need to re-read, slowly, before I post. I can't believe the number of misspellings....

Got the link set up to the November discussion / thread:
Here's a trick I'm planning to try, at least until they getting 'floating' to work as it should:
1. Open the link above. If you need to keep reading these notes, right-click the link and select "Open in a New Tab" so you can switch back and forth.
2. Once the page has opened and fully displayed, use your browser's "Favorite" feature to save the link. I actually create a folder on the 'bookmark bar' for eBay links and will be saving this link to that folder. I can then move it to the top of the list within the folder for faster location.
3. Avoid the aggravation of yet another piece of software that's not doing what it should and doesn't seem to be getting any attention.
If you have any questions, send me a direct message and I'll see if I can walk you thru it. I have four active browsers, so I can screenshot if needed. But I don't do Mac. 🙂
