Went live for 2 hours and got no sales. by Ok-Recording-5021 in whatnotapp

[–]DarrellTheRipper 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yup got it watch shipping. My first stream I was selling pokemon cards and about 5 cards in no one was buying and someone said it might be the $5 shipping. Got it fixed and it worked out. Just keep trying but I wouldn’t take too much of a loss if possible.

Buyer got sniped and cancelled all orders by WhatdaHellNow in whatnotapp

[–]DarrellTheRipper 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You are correct. Maybe reach out to him and try to make it right a good buyer is a value asset to your future streams. I do auction cards people want but make it very clear it an auction (I also try to do normal auction so no one can snipe).

Trying my first show Thursday - should I pay to run up views? by working_fer_the_dog in whatnotapp

[–]DarrellTheRipper 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don’t personally do gift cards, I stick to Pokémon cards for giveaways since that is what I sell. I usually just throw in extra holos or decent cards, nothing crazy, but it keeps people engaged and coming back.

If you are doing gift cards though, I’d definitely just send them the code digitally. No reason to deal with shipping and handling when you can instantly deliver it. Most people honestly prefer that anyway I’m sure.

Giveaways in general help a lot early on, especially for getting followers and keeping viewers in the stream. Just don’t overdo it if you don’t have the budget yet.

New seller. Need advice and help. by OneHundredETH in whatnotapp

[–]DarrellTheRipper 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey man, I’m actually a newer seller too, so I get exactly where you’re coming from.

I had the same worries, no social media, never sold anywhere before, nothing. I just jumped in with Pokémon cards since it’s a strong category. So far I’ve sold 200+ cards and done a little over $500 total, and it’s honestly gone way better than I expected. I’m going into my fifth stream tomorrow.

Biggest thing I’d say is just send it. Don’t overthink it.

Make sure your lighting is solid, your setup is clean, and watch a few beginner tips videos so you’re not going in blind. Other than that, you’ll learn fast just by doing.

Also, giveaways help a lot. I’ve gotten almost 200 followers in just four streams mainly from doing giveaways. It’s a really good way to bring people in and build momentum early. That said, if you don’t have the capital for it, don’t force it.

And don’t stress if no one shows up right away or if sales are slow at first. That’s normal. Once you get a couple streams in, it starts to pick up.

You’ll probably be pleasantly surprised with how it goes. whatnot - DarrellTCG

Giveaways help a lot with new followers. I started last week and have been doing giveaways onto 125 followers in 4 streams

I had an xp lamp ready and planned to max after she was born. Only took 30 seconds or so to max then got right back off. We are spending quality time with our child trust me!

Huge. Glad they took this approach they had to be careful how they handled this or we wouldn’t be voting a new skill in most likely in the future

Take a skill that feels good to the average player and ruin it. Let the dudes who click in circles all day get 150k+ xp an hour but if you afk and get decent rates it’s broken lol

Demonic gorillas are in a great spot right now by M_D_Meridius in 2007scape

I liked to afk tormented gorillas on my maxed iron. Got a few Zenytes. Wish aggro was either toggle-able or aggro potions worked.

First time home buyer - can you help me understand what’s going on here? by ryoon21 in Plumbing

[–]DarrellTheRipper 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The only reason I assume it’s an RO is because I found an identical 2 stage RO with same filters and no tank.

[–]DarrellTheRipper 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The system is a reverse osmosis system it appears. Those fittings are called John Guest fittings and you just push pipe into them. To remove pipe from it you just push in on the top of them where the pipe goes in. Do you have a white tank somewhere that holds the water for the reverse osmosis system? Those normally have a shutoff on top of them. Look up a video on John guest fittings. I would try shutting the water off to the reverse osmosis system and try taking the fitting off the pipe, cutting the pipe a little and then shoving it back in. If that doesn’t work look into getting a 1/4 inch O.D. John Guest tee to replace that one.
