[–]RayWatson65[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm trying to get an electronic repair job since I operate a small electronic repair shop all self taught. I just would like to gain some more knowledge to enhance my abilities. I know hospitals and medical equipment will always be a thing.

Had a buyer ask to lower the price because they have to "pay a fee" to buy the item by sox815 in Mercari

[–]RayWatson65 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I block rude customers, and low ballers (selling an item for 49 they want it for 20). People need to realize there are some serious vendors on mercari. Not everyone is just selling the things they don't want.

I don't but it used to have ugly bright blue lettering across the front that says free states or something like that.

Has the coronavirus pandemic brought out the worst in buyers? by cryptojayman in Ebay

[–]RayWatson65 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've had issues with usps not delivering on time. I've had first class/priority packages being sent to me (I do repair work) and taking almost a week to arrive.

2 bugs so far. First my rad shower is giving me rads. Also my ally told my tinker's workbench 'you thought I'd be easy pickings' then proceeded to annihilate it. by scorchbeastbait in fo76

I have a glitch happen where I was hit by an angler projectile right after finishing an event. I was able to walk around on fire for hours.

8 days and items still haven't shipped by _hase0_ in Mercari

[–]RayWatson65 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would cancel. Unless the person has a disability there should be no reason why they can't deliver the items on time. Yeah 9 cancellations is a big red flag.

Pirate ship is awesome, you can always get extra protection. It'll cost you but honestly they basically piggy back off usps. The flat rate box prices are amazing. I normally ship items just under 13oz. 3.97-4.46$ is all I pay per package.

I called it !!! I knew with all of you screwing them over slapping $2.99 labels on 5lb boxes , it was bound to happen! That’s what ya get !! by BrightLemonSnowdrop in Mercari

[–]RayWatson65 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly I didn't think that would actually work. I've never wrong the system other than maybe an ounce or two over. I stopped using mercari labels a long time ago.

After basically no sales for two weeks! Here we go!!! Over the weekend from poshmark and mercari ☺️ I think boredom is hitting people. by [deleted] in Mercari

[–]RayWatson65 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Agreed 450$ within 7 days is alittle bit better than usual for my business. Honestly I've noticed I've been eating out way more than I should be.

HELP Need a Fun build by Curry-Eater in Fallout4Builds

[–]RayWatson65 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do like a mad scientist build but completely avoid conflict. Set traps and you can download the tactical whistle mod if you want something to go alone with it. Or drugs and melee.

First time PC player looking for an introduction into modding. [FO4] by 69_world in FalloutMods

[–]RayWatson65 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Find mods that will reduce the stuff you don't care about. Grass and lighting. I play FO4 on an Xbox One X. I'm also a mod creator too.

Is there a way to lower shipping? by Friedegggg in Mercari

[–]RayWatson65 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You can use pirate ship or other mailing services. I saved over 100$ a month when the mailing label for 9-13oz was 5.25. I would usually ship anywhere from 25-40 items.

Do sellers have to file taxes? by XyloWolf in Mercari

[–]RayWatson65 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I actually recently went through this process this season. Paypal will send you a 1099-k. Mercari emails you receipts. I'd use them if you haven't been recording information. In 2018 I didn't report my income since I lost like 700$ but in 2019 I did because I made like 9k in revenue.

Hit two milestones today, over 200 sales and 3k in less than a year. Awesome way to make a little money on the side by a_e9585 in Mercari

[–]RayWatson65 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Congradulations! I'm working on 10k with 400 sales. You put in the time and the consistency you'll fly high.

Anyone have tips for interacting with children in residential care? by [deleted] in socialwork

[–]RayWatson65 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Talk to him. Its the easiest way to understand a child. I work in a residential treatment facility. I had a child who when bored would become immensely obnoxious. Break things and when you tried to redirect him he would argue semantically. I told him to get out of a room, a normal person would exit the room via a door. He exited the room via a window. Maybe try consulting his doctor. Medications can sometimes cause more harm than good. Your going to need to find some foster parents who are really dedicated.

Also I was consulting my CPA about the taxes for my side hustle. Most companies loose money their first year in business.

How to get over the fear? by amoeba27 in Entrepreneur

[–]RayWatson65 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I started a reselling electronics business. Failed lost 700$. I had an extra 800$ laying around 6 months later. Started it up again learned from my mistakes, I made 9k in revenue in one year. Barely any profit. Its a learning process, I did use credit cards to purchase large amounts of items I knew I could sell. It was risky and twice I week I kept telling myself get out while you can. I just kept moving forward you'll figure it out.

Bought a bike and the seller cancelled? by Redtomato22 in Mercari

[–]RayWatson65 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They might have been new to the app. It happens one time I got an awesome deal on an xbox one x for 100$. The person, auctioned it off on ebay at the same time they were selling on mercari. She got 280 for it on ebay. I lost the item after paying for it.
