[@BubblesAndBees]

As a new reseller this inspires me so much!!!!! I paused the video, ordered number stickers from Amazon , then finished the video! Thanks for sharing, enjoy the honeymoon!!!!

[@kandmresell]

We are so glad to hear this!!! Best of luck on your reselling journey. It does come with highs and lows, but our hope on here is to share some of our lows so you don’t have to learn the hard way!! Thank you for the kind words and for watching. We are rooting for you!!!

[@AnimeKing-r7o]

@@kandmresellis it true that you have to spend money to make money . I’m kinda scared of getting a pile of stuff that doesn’t sell 😰

[@kandmresell]

@@AnimeKing-r7o it is true in this business, but you have to spend it in the correct ways. The fear you have can be eliminated with research of sell-through rates and correctly comping out items. In a couple weeks, I’ll be going over this topic of sell-through rate and the strategy we use that I came up with which has worked well for us, so keep an eye out for that video and hopefully it helps reduce some of your fears!

[@Art_Katie_Resell]

Question, what made you come to 10% on promoted listing across the board 🤔?

[@kandmresell]

Honestly we started doing it when they released it years back. It helped and always has helped sales, as well as we had the margin to do it and every time we have tried to turn it off, our sales absolutely tank. We will probably decrease them though in the future once we get to the sales a day we are aiming for! My advise is if you can afford to run them with your business model, then try an experiment with them to see the outcome and to see if it’s worth keeping them on! but, if you’re happy with your current sellthrough/sales then don’t change what works!

[@Art_Katie_Resell]

Thanks for the advice!

[@PickingVegasandBeyond]

@@kandmresell TechNSports also promotes at 10% and he’s been the biggest seller of men’s clothing on eBay for 15 years, so I guess there’s something to promoting at that rate. I’ve been trying out 6.5% lately and it’s been doing better than when I was doing 3.5%. 10% is my next step if sales tank at 6.5 like they did at 3.5.

[@Market72]

Great video! What’s the best way to search sell through rate?

[@kandmresell]

Thanks for watching! Great question, and we will make a more in depth video on the in the coming weeks. When looking up a potential item in store on the eBay app, first search up what you have and then go to filters in the top right corner. You’ll look at the number of how many items are listed based on your search terms and filters. This number is shown in blue at the bottom! Say it’s a Peter millar summer comfort polo and there are 80 geometric size large polos listed. You will then scroll further down the filters section and toggle on the sold and completed items buttons. Check out what that number says at the bottom! The goal in the example I gave would be that at least 80 geometric size large Peter millar summer comfort polos would have sold too! These search results show everything from 90 days! We also like to filter it as much as possible (if it’s used, make sure you change the condition to pre-owned, size, sometimes material). From there it’s just looking in the solds to see if you like the sale prices you are seeing vs item cost in store! Best of luck!

[@Market72]

Thank you! Makes total sense. Also being more specific with my item and the filters. Thank you for the great videos and information! I also love targeting golf gear. Im a big golfer and live in Michigan so I resale all winter since I can’t golf 😢. I love Peter Millar, vineyard vines, Greyson, FJ, William Murray, Rhobuck, Travis Mathew, Devereux, Malbon is up and coming if you find that. Golf rain and weather gear especially. That can get pricey!

[@kandmresell]

Yesss! We sell all those brands! Love golf stuff. Haven’t found a Malbon yet due to it being a newer brand but I will soon I’m sure! Thanks for watching!

I subscribed. I like how you did this video. I am preparing to start making videos and was curious how you recorded this. I see you clicking the minimized listings but how is it recorded? Sorry, I’m such a newbie for this. Thanks for the video.

[@kandmresell]

Thanks! I use OBS to screen record my computer! Best of luck on your channel!

[@SecondChanceThreads]

New subscriber here…. Thanks for the great video! If you had only 30 minutes to run into the thrift store, where would you go first?

[@kandmresell]

I can usually look through the entire men’s category in 30 mins, but the route I do in stores in typically shoes, quick scan jeans and pants, (winter stuff due to the season), button shirts, polos. I don’t touch the t shirt section unless they are on a new rack. My recommendation is to just do the category you are the most familiar with at first or if you’re familiar with most categories than do the one your gonna find the most items in on average, whether that’s most average sale price items or just quantity. Your choosing. There’s also a lot of variations to that though for us, as we know our competition in Dallas and what they sell typically so if we see a pants seller walk in at the same time, we might decide to go through the pants before anything else to increase our odds of finding flips and compete with the competition.

[@SecondChanceThreads]

@@kandmresell thank you for the response!

[@DeathByCorporate]

Really enjoy your content! Thanks for sharing your insights. I'm interested in your strategy re promoted listings and monthly markdowns.

Thanks in advance! -Laura (have fun, and enjoy your honeymoon 🙂)

We do 10% promotion too across the board. Works great. What is your return rate, if you do free returns. Thanks

[@kandmresell]

Nice! Our return rate is 3.39% across all categories.

[@kategarb]

@@kandmresell nice. We're about the same and have 3,000 items

[@kandmresell]

Great! I think anything around 2%-5% is normal imo! Hope your sales are going well!

[@markfarr4889]

Good sales - out of curiosity, How do you determine your price, as in the last 2 digests. typically sellers use the same. .99, .95. or if your a tech student .88 But yours are all over the place. Just curious

[@kandmresell]

Thank you! Great question… my wife and I both make listings and use different numbers for the change. I always joke that my items are with .01 more based on my experience 🤣 it also helps us when something gets returned because we know whose listing it was. My wife tends to end things is .86 and I tend to end things in .87 or .88 depending on the dollar value… sometimes with the higher dollar items, all thinking goes out the window and we will use whatever we want (that’s where you see some odd ones!). We also sell similar and reduce the item cost of things that have been sitting for a month by 5%. That makes the change wonky too. Definitely not a whole lot of strategy or consistency over here!

Nice sales!! Enjoyed your content! Can I ask, how many listing do you put up a day on eBay to achieve 1k of sales a day? Thanks in advanced. Keep up the great work!

[@kandmresell]

This month we’re listing 32 a day and selling around $900 a day. Our sales are slightly down this month I believe because it’s the peak of winter and most of our store is summer items. Mid February I’m expecting the summer stuff to start selling like crazy as that was around the time in previous years the summer stuff started to pick up!

[@kandmresell]

Forgot to say the sold daily is probably a better number to look at which currently ours is 22.35 items a day this month on average, but it’s slowly increasing with time :)

Accountant recommendation for DFW?

[@kandmresell]

I wish I had one lol. I don’t have a CPA yet but will be getting one this year!

[@Lay-r1e]

Hey I’m 16 and I wanna start doing this but I’m scared I don’t wanna do something wrong all lose all my money

[@kandmresell]

My advice is I learned on KZbin from others who were successful and you can also do the same! The most important thing I would advise is to study sell-through rate and once you understand it, begin researching as much as you can through what others are selling on KZbin as well as personal research of looking things up to figure out what’s good and what’s not. Sell-through rate is the make or break of resellers and there’s plenty of videos out there to help learn it as well as I will be posting videos in the near future about it. The last tip of advice is spend 90-95% of your time researching what to buy at the start if you’re worried about buying bad items. I love your drive at 16 to want to start a business! Wish I had started this business when I was in high school haha. Oh last thing, go slow and steady and always aim for growth. Just cause everyone is flexing large numbers on social doesn’t mean you need to race to the level they are at. It took them time to get to the point they are and it’ll take you time as well. The most enjoyable part of the business is the beginning, so enjoy the ups and downs through the process cause they will come! Thanks for watching and hope my videos help you if you decide to pursue this hussle!

u recon scrubbin them NBs clda got ya a few xtra bucks? killer totals

[@kandmresell]

If I remember correctly, I threw them in the washing machine like I do with most dirty sneakers and the stains didn’t come out fully. I never go through the hassle of hand scrubbing shoes. Most we do is throw them In the wash for the convenience. Ever since hearing the ralli roots slogan “profits not projects” we’ve sort of adopted it and tried to minimize the amount of work each item needs. That being said, if we were much smaller sellers, I for sure would have attempted to clean them more to get an extra $10 out of them haha! Thanks for watchin!

[@MessengerAT]

@@kandmresell thanks for the reply. Do you find having an ebay store increased sales or not. I'm debating doing a store but not sure if its worth.

[@kandmresell]

The only reason we have one is due to the decreased listing fee costs with having one. Once your store gets to a certain point in active listings, it becomes better to pay the monthly store subscription than paying insertion fees as the monthly cost is much cheaper than the insertion fee cost throughout the month. Hope that makes sense! In short - only worth it once you get to a certain size. It was not a sales increase question for us.

[@MessengerAT]

@@kandmresell makes sense, very helpful.

[@letsgomets07]

What do you take home after taxes?

[@kandmresell]

Right now it’s 10k+ a month pre tax. Unsure what the taxes are going to be in 2024 yet, because we are converting from an LLC to an S-Corp to decrease our tax liability. I’d assume our taxes are going to be around 20% average or less.

I do live in a larger city just find department store brands like Old Navy. I never find these cool brands.

That's interesting. Maybe other resellers are getting the items before you get there or something.
