Is it possible to pack and ship 50+ packages a day i sell used items

[Anonymous]

Dang straight ......I could do it if it took me day and night, wish I could have this problem!

I usually package as soon as a sale comes through to stay ahead of the packing, but my sales have been so few lately, wish I could have 50 sales to send out in one day.

You've been selling here since 2003.  You've sold 23,000 items.  And you're asking a packing and shipping question?  Pull the other one, it's got bells on it.

If you had nothing else to do during the day you could do it.  You would have to be very well organized and possibly skip breakfast, lunch and dinner.

yes

I dont see it on used Items. Unless they are small. I used to sell tons of used motorcycle parts, sizes varied. I did 40 a week and it was tough but this wasnt my full time gig.  If you have a bunch of small items definetly doable

Let us know when you get 50 sales a day how you make out.

I hear the doubt in your writing.  50 in this office is 5-6 hours for one person.  We ship anywhere from 9x6x1 envelopes to 24x24x24 boxes of all different weights and quantities.  Again we are completely set up to do this.  In the early 2000's my eBay company, nationwidesurplus, was shipping 80-100+ a day.  In that business we had one person pulling product and one shipping.  The person pulling product would assist the shippers as well.  It can be done.  Worry about how many packages you are having to ship in a day is a good thing, something eBay really does not care about, SALES.

I did it at times during the height of Covid 'stay at home' restrictions and it wasn't easy while still working 8 hours, but I got it done.

Haven't had that problem for a while now though, more's the pity.

As a parts seller ourselves, I'd say it is great downtime to package and ship items.

[pebles123]

If you ship 30-50 used items a day how many do you list and find the time?

[tobaccocardyahoo]

With the proper packing materials you can.

If you have to scrounge through piles of recycled packaging materials it is less likely.

Never mind.  See now that it's an old thread.  Deleted reply.

I know of one shipper in my category that ships between 500-1,000 packages per day every business day of the week.
