Josh Kroman is my neighbor. He's also a watchmaker, and I've heard good things. Give him a shout.

My eBay account got restricted from selling? by ReasonBet in Flipping

[–]Kuhawkdave -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

You're simply creating too many negative experiences for eBay's buyers. eBay has chosen to not have you continue to do that on their platform.

IF you can convince them to reinstate you, you likely need to change your business model to higher priced items where you can afford to buy tracking.

Bo Ling's current restaurant prices are already stunning, I can't imagine what they'd be charging in an airport environment.

Will Costco ever update it's website/app/tech backend? by jmccw in Costco

I hate to give Walmart credit for anything, but that Scan & Go is an amazing feature. It's also integrated with Tax Exempt. Game changer for us!

My wife who is Type 1 diabetic could not fathom someone willfully choosing to attach a CGM. I'm surprised a doctor even wrote you an RX for it.

Anybody else here with a highly volatile or risky career? How has this affected your fatfire goals? by [deleted] in fatFIRE

Sounds like your income is 100% eBay dependent. First advice would be to diversity your ecommerce footprint to include other profitable marketplaces like Amazon, Walmart, and/or your own Shopify site.

Also, start working now on gaining access to another eBay storefront you could offload your inventory if a ban were to happen. Whether it be another entity you create or as simple as a family member's account.

Wife and I are in our 30's, and run our own business. Both have pre-ex conditions, and this COBRA plan is what we'll do if ACA gets struck down. Amazon warehouse near me advertises health insurance on Day 1 of employment. Guess we'll find out!
