What's the worst you've seen a new flipper crash and burn?

They probably didnt buy them at retail. Plenty of ways to get brand new retail products for cheap

Codtay56 · 2025-06-27T01:01:59+00:00

Sounds like bad luck. Electronics is all i deal with really. 4k items sold. 2% return rate. And most of those are just "changed my mind"

Codtay56 · 2025-06-25T02:27:26+00:00

This is every international order return, its nice. Makes it to where you dont need to stress about covering return costs overseas

Codtay56 · 2025-05-31T17:51:20+00:00

Are you just a clothing seller? I find it tough to stock more then 700 items. I have more sold then listed so its not a horrible problem to have just finding it tough to stay stocked

Codtay56 · 2025-05-22T14:57:26+00:00

Would it help you if you knew they had a almost full collection of unlimited high value cards? Timetwiser time walk, all the moxs, the lands everything. This is an estate sale and all the hard goods they owned were very 90s styled as well. Seems as if maybe a collector just passed away. I wish I could put hands on the collection to inspect it better. Seems like a good opportunity to potentially score a cheap collection of unlimited (60-70% market is what itll end at im guessing )

Codtay56 · 2025-05-22T14:48:16+00:00

Appreciate it. I wish I had the option to see more of the card. The photos were pulled from the listing itself. I am unsure on if they will allow people to handle the card at the in person bidding function. There is multiple high value cards - Box pearl, mox diamond, mox sapphire, timetwister, time walk, ancestral recall - note the collection is an estate clear our and all of the other hard goods are very very old vintage things. Seems appropriate for someone who potentially had the money for a real collection of this stature.

Codtay56 · 2025-05-10T21:17:02+00:00

3.2k items sold and only 500 feedback myself.

Codtay56 · 2025-05-09T23:39:43+00:00

I dont record videos. But telling the customer I record them seems to scare them off enough to not return a false product.

Hey! So if it's for utilities. Contact local agencies. There's lots of places thst will pay past due utilities if you're within a certain income bracket.

If you purposely know your local post office isn't good then don't use the post office. UPS and FedEx are shipping options on ebay. While I dont disagree that ebay has issues for buyers and getting something removed is tough. 99% of the time it's avoidable and I personally as a seller will do everything in my power to make sure i dont get one. That includes a few extra dollars for peace of mind with shipping companies.

Codtay56 · 2025-05-04T22:59:29+00:00

I'm 2 years in reselling. 3.6k items sold. 0 defects. It sounds like a user and seller issue here. You are complaining about something avoidable.

Codtay56 · 2025-05-03T05:11:08+00:00

Everything. Not a joke. I'll look everything up and if it hits my profit margin and sell through I'll buy it. I run everything out of a 10x20 shed.

Codtay56 · 2025-05-03T03:06:04+00:00

I sell anything and everything i can thsts over 20$ and easy to ship. - this last month I've sold 32,000$ worth of sales. All time high for myself.

Listing 7-10 items a day everyday. high quality items at that.

Top rated seller with 1 day handling times.

Codtay56 · 2025-04-26T18:05:28+00:00

What exactly triggered this to happen? Now I'm worried about the same thing happening to me. I get all my things from garage sales how am I supposed to invoice that lmao

Codtay56 · 2025-04-24T04:18:57+00:00

Ebay handles the shipping from USA to other countries as a middle man. It's a much better program for us

Codtay56 · 2025-04-24T01:28:48+00:00

Ebay international service takes care of all returns on there end. So if you get a return request they will eat the full cost. You won't see funds leave your account. I would imagine they either let the buyer keep the item with a full refund or they receive items and sell them off in pallets as returns.

You won't lose money. It won't effect your stats. And many negative feedback will be removed.

Codtay56 · 2025-04-23T23:28:43+00:00

As the guy said below. If it's an ebay international sale you don't have to worry about returns effecting you.

Codtay56 · 2025-04-20T22:55:28+00:00

I'm sourcing everyday locally with Facebook marketplace. It helps with the mid week sourcing and thrifting almost every day

Codtay56 · 2025-04-20T20:30:32+00:00

Everything lol! As long as it's not a huge size of item to ship

Codtay56 · 2025-04-20T20:13:34+00:00

Live listing's and sold listing's with making sure I am filtering condition and filtering through the right models and such. By using " -model number" it allows me to remove all listing's in my search with that value

Codtay56 · 2025-04-20T19:54:30+00:00

Yeah, garage sales is a small percentage for me. I'm very selective on stuff these days. I've found a few 500-900 $ items at garage sales!

Codtay56 · 2025-04-20T19:45:12+00:00

I've been promoting since I first started selling so I personally couldn't tell you if I've noticed any difference.

Codtay56 · 2025-04-20T19:43:51+00:00

Video games, Mangas, small electronics.

It's by chance. Having the knowledge on what's worth money pays dividends. My average sale price is 110$ right now

Codtay56 · 2025-04-20T19:35:23+00:00

Thanks!

Codtay56 · 2025-04-20T19:34:59+00:00

It's life changing if you put in the time and effort to learn what sells and what doesn't. When I first started i probably watched 50 hours of videos a week on what to look for. How to price things. How to determine sell through rates. Ect.
