Do you still have access to the spreadsheet? I would love to use it. Thanks

I was recently approeched by a moving company to sell items they receive from customers such as leftover new inventory after a business shuts down. I'm thinking of going ahead with it and after reading the thread that contained your comment I noticed you mentioned a spreadsheet you use to keep track of fees and such. i'd be interested in something like that because if I do take on the client to sell for I will still be selling my own items and I'd like to have an easy way to sort it all out. While I do have a little experience with computers I think I've gotten too old to learn how to create a spreadsheet on my own! If you still have it and are willing to share it send me a message on Ebay or at my email address: jslagle914-cl@yahoo.com I would really appreciate any help! Thank you, Jim Slagle

Hi ,
I work as a clerk in a post office and I am also moving from a very large house to an apartment. I mentioned this to an e-bay customer. I told her I should sell things on e-bay but after working with packages all day I could not go home and work with more packages. She offered to sell my stuff for a commission.
I am interested in your spredsheet. Tracking, being fair, and paying my taxes are important to me. I don't know enough about the fees to know how to enter into this an business proposition and access a fair commission calculation.

It is now 4 years later, I've read every post, but.... WHAT SPREADSHEET??!! I'm laughing about it because I want it, too, just because everyone else does! Honestly, I must have missed it somehow and am reading this thread because I am going to ask my sweet young friend who needs extra money to sell my huge & multiple boxes full of used, but fabulous clothing.
I would open another eBay account, allow her to use it (yes, I trust her), pay all of the eBay/PayPal fees, and do all of the packing & mailing. She's never sold on eBay, so I'd have to teach her (yuk!), but I will have the ability to log in, edit, answer all questions, take the losses for return postage (double yuk!). So I would be doing alot of the work, taking all the risk for my feedback if she misses something, etc. For this arrangement I would pay her 30% net after all fees. Does this sound fair...to both of us? Hopefully someone is still out there!
One last question ..... Will she be able to log into my account from another location as long as she has the password? And can we both log in at the same time from 2 different locations or will this set off eBay's tender little alarm bells?
Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, everyone!

If you have it in writing, I am sure you could, but the person could just say that they decided not to work with you any more. I'd ask an attorney friend if you know one. Seeing as you posted this over a year ago you've probably already sorted it out one way or another If you were in my city, I'd pay you 30%! What city are you in I'm in Memphis.

I'm not sure what spreadsheet you are all talking about, but I sold some things for someone and I created a spreadsheet for her. I don't know if anyone is interested in it or not. It basically covered eBay sales and the headings were (of course these were abbreviated for space):
I titled the sheet eBay Sales Summary Jan-Jun 2018
(Fees Include sales price and shipping paid)
Date
Item Description
List Price
Cost of Item
Sold Price
Shipping Collected
10% eBay Fees
2.9% PayPal Fees
$.30 PayPal Fee
Shipping Cost
Profit/Loss
Buyer ID
Buyer Name
Sales Tax Collected
Anyway, it worked for us and it kept everything neat for the Tax Man too. I also printed out the invoices for her records. If anyone is interested, you can contact me at lspellett@yahoo.com and I'll be happy to send you a copy.
