The 2008 Garage Sale Challenge

RITA’S STATS WEEKS 15TH, 16TH AND 17TH

August 25, 2008 · 1 Comment

Good morning :)

I spent the past few days pondering all the ebay changes that have been coming our way and as usual, just in time for the holiday selling season, everyone wants to make sure they get their piece of the pie, just wish they would leave some for me! I was angry at first, went in and deleted my “about me” page and thought “enough is enough”! I spent a lot of time on line trying to find another selling venue that might suit my needs, but nothing really reached out and grabbed me.I don’t sell a lot of books or items that might work on Amazon, seems like Yahoo and MSN auctions are no longer with us, have looked at a few others, but lets face it, ebay is the place to sell, at least for me at the present time. I will “bite the bullet” once again until I can hopefully get rid of all of some of this inventory I have in the basement. I haven’t been buying for the challange, but did pick up a few things for my personal collections. I’m going to sort through a lot of boxes and what can’t be put on ebay, then will do a garage sale of my own or donate next Spring. I haven’t had many auctions going, but have been selling out of my ebay store fairly well with a few higher priced items and mostly in the 9.99 range. My sales aren’t high, but I’m still showing a profit for now. :) I haven’t listed much for next weeks auctions as of yet, I’m going into the hospital Thursday evening and I’m haven’t decided whether to list or not. Have a great week all!

    Hi, Rita, wondered why I haven’t heard from you. I hope it’s nothing serious that you’re going into the hospital for!! Let me know how it goes. I’ll be praying for you.
    I’m starting to plug away at getting things listed for the upcoming holiday season. Like you, I have lots of “Ebayables” in boxes that I need to clear out of here!!
