A Reselling Day Like No Other Has Opened Up My Eyes

[@tinacteaches]

I just don’t understand why people complain so much. I don’t even read the title. I see your face and I click on it to watch. I know your videos are always quality and I learn something in just about every one. When I don’t learn anything new they’re still entertaining. Thank you for another great one.

[@johnnybaker3792]

No, you posting your sales inspire me, educate me and open my eyes to other ideas! Keep on keeping on! Thnaks

[@ChosenGoodsReseller]

I love your videos always!!!! Thanks for sharing the chaos with us 😅 makes me feel good to see you have chaos also!

[@ChosenGoodsReseller]

The Barbie and Skipper case is awesome! I had one similar when I was a kid. I had a neighbor that had cerebral palsy, I was 6 and she was 50 and we were best buddies because of Barbies! She allowed me to play with the most beautiful dolls!

[@rheajones-bv7wu]

I’m so sorry you have to deal with the negativity of people. It’s sad. Keep on picking, filming, and loving life. You are awesome. 😊

[@rosalindaromo4190]

I am not interested in having anyone help me, but everyone does their business in their own way. I am happy it is working for you. Wishing you and your family continued success.

[@rones6349]

KB, always appreciate the teacher in you. I know it was the past, however, you deliver your content to inform (“rambling” n all); and, it’s appreciated!

[@ChosenGoodsReseller]

Thank you Kevin for doing all these explanation videos. It really does help to utilize your standpoint while I make my decisions and opinions on different new protocols and operations of the selling platforms!

[@WanitaOsgatharp]

I know everyone has to do what works for them, but you sure have good ideas that are working for you and people might want to tune in to your Channel Commonwealth Picker for some more great advice. Thank you Kevin, hope your daughter is up and about soon. Get well.

[@TheGoodwillHuntress]

I love watching your vids and hearing your views on EBay. I’ve dabbled in eBay since 05 and in the last 18 months decided to ramp up my eBay selling to be a part time seller. I think reselling is what you make of it, it’s hard work but I love it! I’ve learned a lot from watching you and some other resellers. Thanks for all the great advice!

[@ChosenGoodsReseller]

I really liked that John Deere hat!

[@silverman5707]

So did the buyer. $80. including tax and shipping.!

[@PilgoreJ]

Good day, Kevin. Thank you kindly for showing us what to sorce and save time. 🙏 Faster things that sell for me are my coin lot's.

[@cloisterene]

Having limited space makes higher value sales that much more vital to my well being, so with time also being limited and valuable, weeding out low-dollar and items that don't move fast is crucial. If selling them in lots is out of the question or doesn't work, it's time to send them to the dumpster or recycling bin. When you can't even *give* the stuff away, there's really no point in donating them. Thrift stores throw a big percentage of their donations away, anyhow. I've learned some hard lessons that I hope will make me a better picker and seller. I refuse to buy anything though until I finish processing everything currently in stock. I've been working on it steadily, and tossing out things that have been wasting my time and space is immensely satisfying. One bad habit I had to break was buying things because I personally like them (I like too many things), or because I thought they were 'cute' or 'interesting'.

[@Nostalgia4sell]

I was just accepted to sell on dibdit and bought both of your lots from last show (Domino Noids and the Smokey the Bear) so thank you. I look forward to possibly taking part on the commons site also as I have collectibles like lego, comics, cards, and vintage figures/toys coming out of my ears lol. Love what you and the fam are doing, keep it up buddy.

[@Mary-c5t7l]

I don’t think you’re bragging. It helps us see what some items are worth and what we should be looking for.😊

[@1955RKE]

I have a W-2 job but needed a little more money than what I was making. A coworker recruited me to do Dood Dash. I did that for a year and a half. I quit because I was putting too many miles on my car. I decided to start doing eBay. It is more lucrative than doing deliveries also it is much easier and fun. I am learning alot from your videos. Thanks!

[@ThriftedSpirit]

I'm loving commons and look forward to posting more.

[@gemflipper]

Glad to see you hitting on all cylinders. Thanks for sharing your best practices. For me in my area because the sourcing is so good almost all the time I can treat the goodwills and flea markets like my own personal death pile. I know it's a luxury not everybody has and I'm definitely thinking of potentially joining your wholesale selling group.

[@ToyAddict]

I love selling toys and ephemera, so those print ads were right in my wheelhouse! I am listing them all on eBay and made my money back already selling the first 3! Thanks for putting them out there. It should be a good score for me!

[@lawsofhumannature2049]

When you get a chance can you explain your clipboard were you have your sales tallied? Is that for your own bookkeeping? I'm asking because im making a lot of sales and want to make sure I dont get shot by the IRS

[@commonwealthflipper]

No. It is just to organize for the videos. Check out my reseller genie. Code commonwealth if you want to keep good records.

[@PurpleUnicornBuysellPa]

I have a question we have knock on wood. We have been putting out 30 to 70 packages a week for the past 12 months. The last six days nothing everything just stopped. If it wasn’t for me sending out offers there would be no sales and I’m trying to figure out what happened? Enlisting sell similar has been done. Anybody have any ideas why our sales would just stop ? And all of our ratings were 4.9 5.0 our seller is in great shape. And Kevin, I have actually implemented my pricing scale. Instead of being $15.00 we do 14.95 for example. We try to do that on all of our listings so we try to come up more higher in the search engines. We do not have a store. I had one a year ago and just couldn’t figure it out. eBay was no help trying to get that last step to complete

[@CoffeeMoneyFlipper]

I don't like selling glass items. If the profit is right, I will, but not my thing :) Costume jewelry is my main ticket - small, easy to pack, cheap to ship, etc. Thanks for the video, always enjoy the perspectives of other sellers. Selling on Ebay since 1997....and I still learn new things. No one knows it all.

[@OriginalNethead]

Here sourcing the jewelry has gotten diffifult unless you're going on private picks. It was my area too, but mostly vintage.

[@CoffeeMoneyFlipper]

@@OriginalNethead I agree. It only takes 1 volunteer with first dibs to kill the potential to get decent items...

[@OriginalNethead]

Antique store booths can be a good thing, but you have to buy the right thing for the right market and have the time to keep a booth up. I'm too disabled to handle a yard sale, but do flat out give some things away. For things I couldn't sell in the past, I usually only bought low enough to resell to another dealer so HE could make a buck with it. Not getting into it here, but live sales for me would set off a massive land mine.

[@Tyler-pq4xs]

Is there a way to check what has sold on commons? I see there is a leader board but I can't access it. I would like to sell on there but would like to see what has sold and who is doing the best/what they are selling. I know you have said big loads with meat left on the bone Thanks!

[@wwz1011]

One thing I do that I do not see others mention, is I sell a portion of my finds via a consignment shop. I take them a tub or two or three of sporting goods items: apparel, gear, shoes. They sell, I get half. It handles a lot of volume for me, stuff I don't have the time to create listings, answer questions, and ship, stuff below the ASP I am targetting. Sure, the fees are high, but it is handling stuff I would not buy otherwise (not worth my time). I will give them a shirt I paid $1 for, they sell for $15, I get $7.50. If I sold on ebay, maybe I'd get $10 to $12 on ebay, minus fees.

[@linall2345]

I’m FINALLY listing for the seasons. I couldn’t do it in the beginning. Just sold a Studio 56 Haunted House! 😊

[@cruzinandcashin]

I was watching your video with my 6 yr old grandson and he squealed he was so thrilled with that yellow phone. I was surprised he thinks it is awesome. Do you have it for sale in your store or is it for display purposes. Thanks

[@commonwealthflipper]

I believe it is in the eBay store

[@buyatreasure]

What is a static sale?

[@ivermectin3191]

Is dibdit available for sellers in Canada?

[@wn9773]

I appreciate the idea behind shop commons and you are probably right that all the good deals get snapped up, but a lot of listings have no money to be made for a reseller. I don't think the spirit of the site is necessarily embraced by all your sellers.

[@winter-antiques-vn7dy]

I havent been sourcing much but been getting through my deathpile. Major slow sell through rate stuff which hurts the good items a lot. When get done with deathpile ill start marking stuff down and making lots of certain items.

[@Scorpio1168]

How would you suggest is the best way for me to sell about 50 precious moments, all in pristine condition in the original boxes and styrofoam of which are also in great condition. I'm brand spanking new to reselling and I can't even begin to think how hard it would be to sell them on EBay, that's a lot of listings. I was given them by a family cleaning out their attic and were about to put them curbside on garbage day. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!!

Every time I see a DARE item, I still think of Stephen Glass, although his articles were fully debunked. Once you read something, you always think there must be something in it, and it sticks in your mind. PS - I think I heard an allusion to the mighty Jebus!

It’s a joke. Young people often break off relationships. When I started KZbin he had a different girlfriend. So I decided to call her Bubbas girlfriend so if it changed again I didn’t have to change her name. So now it’s Bubbas finance. Soon it may be Bubbas wife. Hopefully then it will never change. 😉 One of the cats names is “No Name” hopefully that isn’t a problem.

I know why you don’t video tape when you are sourcing at garage sales and swap meets. You don’t want others to see how clueless about values the people you encounter are. I have considered moving to Lexington. Everyone out west is halfway smart. I have to pay twice what you pay. And the shipping to back east is expensive. Let’s keep this a secret.

[@commonwealthflipper]

Yes, and I’m still depressed about seeing the Pawnshop Picker channel. My daughter is a Professor at the University of Kentucky. I could fit right in.

[@miladelpamatmat]

There's a difference between sharing and bragging and I say poopoo to those who can't tell the difference. I like to see that you are diversifying and delegating to grow and/or make your life more doable. What you are doing is not for everybody, like myself, but it's been nice to see how you've been doing it. I've certainly changed how I do things over the past few years to make life more doable as well. I have limited space and time. I only sell on eBay. So I've adjusted my sourcing so I buy less but am still increasing/maintaining income. I'm always open to reasonable offers on listings. Almost 50% of what I list sells within 90 days. After a couple months I consider if the listing needs adjustment. And if it's not selling after 6 months, I start discounting deeply. And if it still doesn't sell, I throw it into the yearly garage sale pile. And then after that, it's donated. Very few of my listings are over a year old because of this and an important goal is that my death pile doesn't overtake my spaces.
