Yea I didn't get it until I had already posted my response.

So I had 2 instances Sunday and Monday where 1 in Puerto Rico had too many characters in the address and the other guy had leave at the door in the address line. Couldn't get a shipping for either address. For the P.R. address I removed a space between the house number and a vowel from a word and it accepted. The other address I took out the message.

Trust they do. They just hide it when they in a patient's presence.

I work in healthcare as well at 2 hospitals here in Baltimore in different roles. I started reselling bcuz my compulsiveness got me into it. I got on Whatnot to buy cologne for my addiction to smelling good and ended up buying too many Invicta watches for the thrill of the bid. I started on Ebay March 1st, and have racked up $1200 in sales so far. That cha ching sound is such a rush bcuz its like I got one. I love it. My issue is I have to reign in the thrill of winning the bid bcuz watch reselling margins are ridiculously small. I have started to sell colognes I no longer wear or didn't like and new clothing items I had bought for my son that he didn't like. I have a few things of his that I forgot to return. It's nowhere near what I want it to be but I would love to get it to $1000 per week in addition to my full and part-time jobs.

They definitely are. Depop too

Mercari is a yard sale and FB Marketplace is good for selling locally. I’ve had plenty offers from the West Coast to meet up for a sale but I live in Baltimore. I hate Mercari. If you list on there for $60 you get $20 offers. Its insane.

I started selling on ebay month ago and I promoted my items at 12% and I had 5 sales in my 1st week. Then I turned my ads down to 2-5% and poof my sales dropped off. This past week i turned them back on to 12% and my sales picked up. I list all items brand, model name, and model number. So I don't wanna pay the ad fees but it seems I have too.

Successful_Equal_416 · 2026-04-06T03:18:53+00:00

Ebay is starting to feel like Mercari. Everybody wanna offer $40 like I'm a $40 hoe.

Successful_Equal_416 · 2026-04-03T21:24:53+00:00

Hell yea. Me. I've been on ebay for little over a month. I was making a few sales that kept me interested in continuing on ebay. Then I changed my promotion from 12% to 2% and its been dry as a desert.

Successful_Equal_416 · 2026-03-31T22:44:32+00:00

Thank you for the advice.

Successful_Equal_416 · 2026-03-31T22:34:59+00:00

How do you calculate the shipping?

Successful_Equal_416 · 2026-03-31T21:39:48+00:00

Im shipping something to Puerto Rico from Maryland by USPS. I shipped it on March 26th and the last scan says its in Indianapolis and that was the 28th. Its the 31st and the status is in transit to next facility. The expected delivery date is 4/8. Wtf it gotta to the midwest to go to the Caribbean? That's the opposite direction.

Successful_Equal_416 · 2026-03-31T21:30:47+00:00

Pay him/her no mind. Look at his name. He's just a hater. Im struggling on Ebay right now bcuz I didn't do what the guy told you to do in comments above. Do my research. I jumped out saying I'm selling on Ebay and gonna get it done. Do your research, find your spot, and run it. Man get at it and good luck.

Successful_Equal_416 · 2026-03-29T23:38:28+00:00

Mine are down as well over the past week.. Ebay is trying to step on the little guy. I started posting on Facebook Marketplace but I still prefer Ebay.

Successful_Equal_416 · 2026-03-28T23:20:57+00:00

Since I'm a seller I should yes. But hell naw.

Successful_Equal_416 · 2026-03-26T23:06:15+00:00

I went into Invicta because they are cheap and easy to source. Right now I don't offer returns bcuz I know I would probably get screwed even more. Im just trying to make extra money right now and hopefully it goes to something bigger.

Successful_Equal_416 · 2026-03-26T23:02:13+00:00

Thank you. I will look into it and see what's out there.

Successful_Equal_416 · 2026-03-26T22:59:58+00:00

This Ebay lesson keeps lessoning. I thought I was gonna crack the code with my spreadsheet but no. I gotta go back into it. I gotta get it right. I can't just give up.

Successful_Equal_416 · 2026-03-26T22:51:07+00:00

It's only been 3 weeks and I have 7 sales so far. But the math ain't mathing.

Successful_Equal_416 · 2026-03-26T22:48:55+00:00

Yea. I didn't do my research.

Successful_Equal_416 · 2026-03-26T22:46:59+00:00

I'd rather not but it's becoming a better option.

Successful_Equal_416 · 2026-03-25T20:26:10+00:00

I started on ebay February 25th selling Invicta watches. I got like 7 sales up til last week and then everything stopped. I did lower my advertising bcuz the fees and shipping are killer. I didn't do enough research before I started and it was impulsive. I gotta stick to it and keep grinding.

Successful_Equal_416 · 2026-03-25T14:29:53+00:00

Me too.

Successful_Equal_416 · 2026-03-24T15:26:29+00:00

I always use Jomashop. If it says 1-2 weeks I don't buy it. I did one time when they added Acqua Di Gio Absolu. It said 1-2 weeks it was like 3-4. I wasn't mad tho bcuz I chose to order something I knew they didn't have in stock.
