I don’t usually put my variations in Vendoo. I often just leave the listing because purchases from variation listings will keep the listing alive. I don’t cross post them or delist/relist. If you need it for records…I think there’s a way to add sales manually?

Happy New Year to the Pish Posh Family of resellers. We also live in a rural area but with great prices and interesting inventory opportunities due to being close to the Pax River Naval Air base. Lots of military who have lived & collected from all over the world & high paid contractors with a great high end clothing selection. I have moved in the exact opposite direction recently and am focusing on clothing. While I hate the backbreaking measuring, I find my ASP is better with clothing and turnover is so much faster. I am semi-retired, still work about 20 hrs a week as a Museum store buyer so have about 20-25 hrs to dedicate to reselling. Unlike most resellers, I am way to picky and only manage to buy & list about 25-30 pieces a week. No death pile for me, I probably should source more in 2025.

I’m retiring from my full time job in Feb. my goals are to get on a sourcing schedule and get my listings up to 500. I’ve never been above 250. I haven’t done too bad for being so small and just a hobby seller. I will likely gross $18,000 this year. I agree with clothing. I only pick up vintage that I can get $75 or more from. You can’t get clothing around here for less than $8-15 or more anyway. It also takes a long time to look through. I’m culling all my nonsellers now and will try for $25 and above items. My son just moved out so I am finally able to get a designated space to work. Another goal is to get the room set to decrease time to list and pack.

I too had weaned my way off Etsy...and now I have 1 listings. Now the earrings are unsold on 2 sotes. Lol. Are SOLDS not necessarily SOLD on Etsy?

We are trying to be more selective about what we are picking up. Clothing is so labor intensive so we are very selective about what we sell in this category. We have reduced the amount we bring home to resell, but we still go out the same amount of time. We hit the jackpot at the Goodwill bins yesterday soooooo we have a ton of new inventory but one was a trunk full of mostly new vintage sewing patterns and resort wear. We are backing off of plush, toys -which was my daughter’s thing but we just don’t get the traction for these categories.

I liked how I could adjust my Vendoo plan based on how much I was using it.

Sooooo......I'm pretty sure 2025 is going to be my last year of selling. This will be the year of 1099's going out for earnings over $5K so there's that. I'm just getting too old. Lifting bins to try to find an item that I can't quite remember storing is getting so hard for me and it's just me doing it all. I have anywhere from 700-800 listings so it's a lot to remember and store. I'm healthy illness wise but my spine and joints are just getting worse and worse. FOMO will be hard but I'm not going to do nearly the shopping I usually do. I need to concentrate on listing what I've got. I hate listing clothing. The photos, the measurements, the color differences, it's just a pain. Of course that means I have a huge backlog of clothing that will need to be pressed before I can list it. I may bulk lot some patterns just to get them out the door. Thankfully I don't have the patience to look thru racks of clothing at thrift stores anymore. I check plus sizes and men's but my time is better spent on other things. Too much Shein and Temu on the racks. I love that sculpture and it seemed very familiar to me....I may have seen it in something I read recently about Indigenous People in art.

Because we sell so many we use a plastic sleeve and then a stay flat envelope. Bubble mailers or even regular yellow envelopes could also work but I'd be sure to use some kind of plastic covering to protect from moisture/rain. When we first started we just used plain plastic bread bags and taped them shut. I generally just use Pirateship. It will pull my Etsy sales over so it's easy peasy. But the labels right on Ebay or Etsy would be fine. (we sell patterns on Etsy mostly...better prices there)
