If this happens again I might recommend pulling out those totes in the corner and stacking the boxed unlisted there. With a crosshatch pattern and a bit of overlap toward the back (so they lean against the walls) they can stack almost to the ceiling and be out of the way. Then you can pull them out at your leisure for listing.

Have you though about stacking all the death pile boxes in the corner (where your clothes containers are) all the way to the roof and put the clothes containers in front of them. It will get rid of quite a few from your walkway… Goodluck

i had a similar thing back several years ago on ebay with the lady not rebuying her item.....somebody messaged me and offered less money (before ebay had best offer and send offer options). i agreed and told him id drop the price to his amount so he could purchase. i dropped the price immediately, and immediately they sold. then i get a message from the guy like 5 minutes later....wondering why the item shows as SOLD already? LOL apparently as soon as i dropped the price, somebody else grabbed them before he got them....all within like 5 minutes.

I have a question that I would love your input on. I'm in the patreon group and sell books. Do you have any experience with shipping freight or selling complete sets of magazines? I just took a commission job on a complete set of runners world magazines (1970s till now) minus 2 magazines. I was thinking about lotting the whole set but have never shipped freight. It's at least 200 lbs. Would you use freight, seperate large boxes, or piece it out into smaller lots?

Oooh postage would be different where I am but I’m trying to lot my magazines into lots of about 6-10 and keep them under my flat rate postage of 5kg.

@Back from Burnout yeah, we have Media Mail here so I can ship a whole year (12 to 13) for 6 bucks. Part of me wanted to auction the whole lot just to see that 4 digit sale number but I don't want to mess with freight.

Most of them are free shipping, some of the larger bundles that are more expensive I sometimes do put shipping as extra. On clothes, shoes and other items I add shipping extra.

I looked and can't sort by SKU on the phone. The only way is to do a printed picking list and I often like to look at the spine on the photo to know what I'm looking for. I re-organised yesterday, stay tuned for what I have done!

How do you sell multiple listings at once to one person for a given price like you did with the five bundles of the western books?
@backfromburnout
@backfromburnout 2 жыл бұрын
So he messaged me asking for my best price. Once he said agreed I created a new listing for him for the 51 books and I transferred over the 5 main photos from the original listings to show the books I was including in the listing. And I made the price for $200. In the title I also wrote - custom listing for John 51 Cleveland Novels (or something of the like). I then ended the individual listings and sent him the link for the new listing. He purchased straight away.

Girl you need to hire someone to help you. You're taking on way too much for one person. You might want to find someone who is good at organizing. Maybe someone who used to be a librarian? Definitely someone young who can handle the heavy lifting. It might help to watch some reseller youtubers like the rockstar flipper. Even if his videos don't help (I'd be surprised if they didn't) he often talks about other channels that might also help. Also try RalliRoots, Hairy Tornado, and Raiken Profit. Good luck!

@@backfromburnout At some point everyone needs help and there's nothing wrong with asking for it. Look at Lindey Glenn. She started by asking her sister in law to help her part time, and now she has a brick and mortar store. I feel bad seeing you struggle. I know the feeling. It'd be nice if you had a little help.
