Daily /collectibles/, /flipping and /ebay/ thread . No talking about crypto please. What things have you been selling successfully on Ebay? Craigslist? FB marketplace What collectibles are you buying up? MtG? Pokemon? RareFrens? Digimon cards?

NO CRYPTO

Selling a super Nintendo bundle for $400. Got offered $200 to $380. The guy offering 380 really wants it so I'm confused why he is being petty. I'm picking up a 16k check tomorrow do I don't need the money. I just want to get rid or shit before I buy a nee house.

2 out of my last 3 sales on ebay ended up being fun bidders from other EU countries

FUCK PAYPAL (and their garbage fees)
this is why we need crypto, fuck these centralized piece of shit services.

People want to feel like they got some sort of deal, that's why you price items 15-20% higher than what you want. Some department store lowered their prices and stopped coupons and their business dropped a lot so they went back to marking up and giving coupons.

I only use the auctions when I have no idea what the price should be. Set it at $0.99 to generate views and let it rip. Haven't had anyone back out after winning the bid.

Ebay is good for selling old shit and that is it
I sold off a lot of my old Gamecube games/N64 games/Pokemon cards this year and made a nice £3000 or so.

However, the fees are fucked. it's 10%. buyers changing their mind or being petty is annoying, so you make sure to take ridiculously good Pics and descriptions.

The fees are so bad that any nice little way to make some cash you find is pretty much eliminated after the fees.

I do around 2,000 auctions a year and probably 20-30% never pay. BIN is better but the reason you gave is decent reason to use them. I will use them to create free marketing steam for my brands as well. Set the auction to 0.01 not .99 for more eyeballs and watchers

I use their suggested price and it actually isn’t too bad. They automatically set shipping and prices that leave room for some 30%-50% markup

I collected Pokemon cards a lot when I was a kid. I stopped at some point but still hold on to all of them. Have literally thousands upon thousands of them. None of my cards are mint or graded and I don't plan on ever selling them anyway, but I like having them. Cool thing to show off to friends. If you want to see a particular mon in the 151 let me know and I'll take a pic

Have some yeah. Honestly though I don't know exactly how many. Each of those container sleeves carry about a dozen or more cards so I'm only looking at the top-most card when I flip through, but yeah I've got some. I never really paid too much attention to the edition when I was playing with them at 10 years old

This one is the easiest money I have ever made

List 1oz silver coins on ebay for 250% over price I buy from bullion dealer.

Dumb normies buy a single coin and pay with credit credit for Nintendo points from bank and paypalTM one touch checkout. Sell 20 of them.
I pay 10% to ebay, 3$ to paypal
Withdraw money to bank account, order the exact same coins but a full tube at lower price from mint or bullion delaer paying with direct bank transfer (free but not instant)
Repeat

Silver stack is growing, this is the only use case for 1oz silver coins, normies won't pay 250% for a 1kg bar silver or 1oz gold coin

[Anonymous No.19652127]

>>19651992
I've been buying semi-numismatic bullion from series that change design every year and unload on collectors after a few years. Been a great strategy to increase my stack. Sometimes these coins go up several 100%.
The strategy for most amerifat silverbugs however is to only purchase "most bang for buck" silver which means 90% pre-64 circulation coinage, silver eagles and hannukah silver bars from the 80s.

[Anonymous No.19652613]

>>19652330
Go on ebay and do advanced search for silver quarters and click show sold items.Then you can see how many sold and for how much they were sold for. You want to be sure you can sell 4000 quarters at $15 a pop before buying them. This applies for anything you want to flip>>19652127


1 oz silver coins are good because most online bullion dealers (at least in aus) have minimum order numbers so normies cannot buy just 1 oy 2. Also the shipping cost is not to high compared to the product. I trialed the same with Australian pre decimal silver pence and shillings as can buy them in bulk cheap (before australia turned jewish and switched to dollars) but the shipping cost ate up most of the 250% premium and not many people here know that these coins are 92% silver so barely any sold and the only ones that did were to boomers who were alive and remember using the shillings, pence and pounds. But all normies know that perth min, us eagle, maple leaf etc is silver and are still panic buying at 250%.

You should put your best cards in some penny sleeves and toploaders or some other way to store them i heard that the binder is not the best way to store the higher value cards.

If you have a decent ebay account it's the way to go. Sell in 2/4 packs, super cheap to ship.

[Anonymous No.19654008]

I don't think these threads do as well because information in nature to these subjects equals potential competition. I'll say this, many things even found in Walmart's can be sold for consistent profits. You scan the barcode with the app and selection the sold merchandise to gauge what would be viable. You want cash? Reselling is an option. Ideally you hustle enough to get proper bankroll to buy inventory wholesale or liquidation. Some people don't care about buying out shelves of product at Walmart's though. During these times it's completely viable. I.e swimming pools and exercise weights. This is a good way to start out and build up your feedback until you can transition into reselling/flips that require less leg work. This information can change the life of a person who has the right mentality.

[Anonymous No.19654158]

>>19651992
Similar deal here. I buy a product in bulk, repack them into "single use" sachets are sell them in lots of 5-10. 400% markup and the individual packs fit in super cheap shipping packages. Not a huge $$ maker because the market is small but more than I expected when I started. Can't reveal without doxing myself.. otherwise I would.. there is no competition in other countries. But don't have time to scale it.

Not really, ebay is good for selling anything, you are probably a brainlet that buys overpriced shit.

I dont look for shit on aliexpress or other chink websites because its not 2012 anymore and 500,000 other stay at home moms are doing the same thing on Ebay, or worse, Chinks realised they can jat buy a house in the UK and store all their shit to sell even cheaper than the middle man.

Make your own site for that if you want any chance.
If you make ur own shit or services Ebay is still fine. But if you found a way to fet discounted products etc good luck. I could get new Iphones etc for a heft discount for a while but after Ebay fee i barely made any money for the effort it took

Ebay connects smart people to brainlets, poorfags and people paying for convenience.

Can sell silver overpriced, but also have picked up some actual good deals. Tip, if someone is selling silver undervalued, message them and ask what else they have, if they have anything good make a fast offer. EG. Bought a -10% 1/10 oz gold coin, messaged the person asking what he has and he listed a bunch of shit with dumb prices, I picked a cheap but overpriced item and said I want that but look at the price on (website x) if you throw in that 1kg bar for $650 AUD I might be able to pay $100 for your ($10 max old coin)
They get excited to offload the shitcoin at great price but not realize the discount on 1kg bar is way more than $100.

I might be called brainlet by whoever sells me $2 cables for $5. Its all relative as different peoples time is worth more than others.

I used to buy small lots (10-50 coins) of silver nickels maybe a decade ago on ebay for spot or just under spot. The single nickel listings often went unsold, because the asking prices were too damn high. $15 for a $3 silver quarter in June 2020 seems too damn high.
