Buying And Selling To Make Money
Sharing My Day to Day Strategies for Buying and Selling to Make Money – Yardsales, eBay, CraigsList, Auctions, etc.
While we were putting together our latest video (below), it stuck me about how some of the easiest things to sell on eBay are those that are useful and/or necessary to the buyer. When I first began on eBay, pretty much anything would sell since internet marketing (and eBay) was still in its infancy. Demand…
It’s hard for me to believe sometimes, but this month marks 19 years that I first sold my first item on eBay. It was a 2-book set about the Wright Brothers. No picture; no template – just a brief description of what I had, and that was the start of it! Of course a lot…
I just saw a book on Amazon by Jim Cockrum called “Silent Sales Machine.” It was updated in the fall of 2017, so it’s up to date. Now, I’m not a guy who gets too cranked about anything – but I have to say that for only $5.92 – yeah, that’s right – less than…
Hey everyone! So, the carpentry season is done for 2012, and now it’s time for some serious buying and selling on eBay for the winter. Kath and I got in on Friday, November 30th and had a little touch-and-go while they tried to figure out why our condo didn’t have internet. We almost had to…
I’d like to offer one of my tips for selling on eBay – especially since it’s still fresh in my mind. As mentioned in the last post, summer is really a difficult time for us to do eBay. Today, however, I want to talk about when it’s DEFINITELY worth your time to make the time…
Hey all… I thought I’d drop in a just talk a little bit about summertime, eBay, and where I usually am this time of year. Because I’m not yet a millionaire (notice I say “yet” – because I’m still shooting for it!), I need to work my carpentry business when the weather is good. It…
When I’m home in New Hampshire during the summer, it is a rare Saturday morning that I’m NOT going to yard sales. Buying at yard sales has been an integral part of my buying and selling business for so many years now, that I’m not sure what a sunny Saturday morning would be like without…
Ok guys and gals… I just uploaded a new video over at YouTube (my username or channel or whatever you call it at YouTube is “JohnsYardSaleFinds” for lack of any better ideas). This video shows how we loaded up for a live country auction (as opposed to the virtual eBay auctions) up here in northern New…
I just made a quick video for you regarding how powerful it can be to add video – a short YouTube video, for example to your eBay listings. It’s difficult to say whether this is one of my all-time favorite tips on selling on eBay, but it ranks right up there! Actually, adding video to…
This post is primarily for beginners, or people who haven’t sold a lot on eBay yet. So for those of you who have been at this for a long time, bear with me. I’m writing this because I just searched for something, and realized why I wouldn’t buy a couple of the items I saw…
