I’m still here! I have been a little busy with school lately (and let’s be honest, enjoying the nice weather!), but I’m still eBaying – just not as much as the last couple months. I have been averaging about $50 profit a day which is slightly under my goal. That being said, I probably have been putting in less then five hours of work a week. My goal is to put in at least 20 hours of work next week and list 100 items. The most I’ve ever listed in a week was probably about 50 listings, so this is a big goal for me.
Here have been a few of my thrift flips from the past month:
Vintage Motorcycle Jacket
Profit: $28
Lucky Brand Jeans
Profit: $12.81
Ralph Lauren Blazer (Sold for $99 even with the terrible cell phone picture!)
Profit: $81.28
Minnetonka Sandals
Profit: $11.59
Pikolinos Sandals
Profit: $28.42
About 75% of my items I only profit around $10-$15. It doesn’t seem like much, but those small profits add up fast. And to think, each listing only takes about 15 minutes, at most, to post. That’s like $1/minute! I do get the occasional item where I profit over $100. A couple weeks ago I sold the Kate Spade dress from a previous post for $200 and profited a nice $121.01!
I really have been slacking on posting and shopping this past month. Hopefully, I will be back in action in the next few weeks and working on my goal of being able to make at least $50,000 a year!
