I wasn't expecting that!

[@MattysFlips]

Love that you’re getting some good sales in! Definitely feeling the hit and miss days for sure for sales on eBay. Looking forward to a good November!

[@JammyDodgerFlips]

Cheers Matt, yeah eBay is all over the place right now, had a no sale day the other day and then followed by a few huge days. Just wish it was all level everyday, but we know that’ll never happen. Yes, nearing Christmas, so hope November is a good one!

[@matthewwall1061]

Sales have been crap. Im in the process of getting rid off everything and closing the business and getting a full time job. Been doing this for 7 years but ive had enough now. mainly due to financial

[@chloebeaty8938]

That’s sad to hear 😢

[@dottieland7061]

I left eBay and went to Vinted. Yes the prices are lower but you get the sales and I am more than happy . So sorry to hear you are leaving

[@JammyDodgerFlips]

Sorry to hear this Matt, I think we used to speak on insta years and years ago, I could be wrong, before KZbin etc. Shame though, but I get it, something has definitely changed in the past few months. It’s getting harder and harder to keep sales consistent. Good luck in your new venture, maybe take a few years off and come back to reselling one day.

[@trugman1]

Have you done a video on your cleaning process? Great content love the videos 👍🏻

[@JammyDodgerFlips]

Thanks! And not yet 😬 people keep asking, so maybe soon

[@trugman1]

@ would be very helpful 👍🏻 (and not just for resellers). Reckon you could even put a cleaning kit together with the stuff you use and sell that 👍🏻🤣

[@leefuller2347]

Jammy ebazaar make sure you enjoy your little holiday

[@JammyDodgerFlips]

Thank you, was just a quick getaway, back to the grind now!

[@juliagailes2927]

How do you clean up your trainers? It can make me feel sick just the thought of doing it. But yours always look so clean

[@JammyDodgerFlips]

Mainly in the buying, I buy ones that just need a wipe down usually. But use a boot buddy, warm water and fairy liquid and you’re good to go!

[@AndyCarr-i6g]

Love the videos, don’t apologise about the shoes, you need to do what makes you a living. Also enjoy the content with the family and charity shop challenges with your sister. Specialising makes sense so you build expertise and can more easily spot money making opportunities and also avoid mistakes. More calls for a shoe cleaning video in the comments! Buy you a coffee if you do one …

[@JammyDodgerFlips]

Haha love the subtle coffee bribery 😅 I get you, it’s hard because chatting to the camera I feel like I’m on repeat most the time, but I forget there’s always new eyes on the videos. I’ll keep them coming, maybe even a cleaning one soon 😅

[@garyballared2077]

love the t shirt fella

[@JammyDodgerFlips]

👊🏼 🖍️

[@Dulcedeath]

I respect your hussle. Instead of a unit you must have space for a garage. A home extension built even with a bank loan is better idea. Also increases the property value 👌

[@JammyDodgerFlips]

Thanks! Yeah I already work from the garage on the side of the house. The back has already been extended, I can go for the shed in the garden option later down the line, but we’ll see! The garden is already quite small 😬 I’ll just keep cramming it into the garage for now though 😎

[@adamknowles7229]

It's always shoes atm I know it's what sells but seriously give it a boot 😂😂

[@JammyDodgerFlips]

Don’t worry 😉 …good pun

[@LunaRowntree]

If they not refund you return postage cost, you can always phone them. 👍

[@The_Jarrow_Reseller]

Not Boring informative ...enjoyable vid as usual

[@JammyDodgerFlips]

Thank you 👊🏼☺️

[@vintagecasual7185]

Hi, quick question, when you're cleaning the trainers, do you use a steamer? if so, which one? Also, is that rejuvenator kit - the expensive one with the brushes etc, worth it or are there better products out there that can be bought off the shelf at supermarkets etc? Thanks. Loving the vids btw, you've nailed the full time earnings 👍

[@JammyDodgerFlips]

Thanks for watching, to answer both your questions, no and no, I don’t use a steamer and definitely don’t pay up for any expensive kits for cleaning. I use warm water, a boot buddy and fairy liquid. Dry with a microfibre and stick on a radiator. No need for the expensive stuff!

[@benwatson6432]

What would you say is the average time shoes sit on your store before selling ?

[@JammyDodgerFlips]

Hey mate! Some sit for months but then a lot sell within the first week of listing, if not getting much interest after a few months I’ll start dropping prices. Average though, I’d say 2 weeks

[@Jackanackanorie]

How has eBay removing transaction fees changed things for you?

[@JammyDodgerFlips]

I haven’t really felt the effect, it’s no different to us business sellers, we still pay the fees. Unfortunately.

[@RUGGEDBEAR-d7o]

I had the same with a camera.. Stupid reason for returning item.i clicked I don't agree ,and gave a good reason... eBay just agreed with buyer.. So as usual, eBay siding with buyer whatever reason.. So wouldn't bother clicking it.

[@JammyDodgerFlips]

Shame that, too many scammers these days

[@shaunmccoy1969]

Can i ask please, do you promote your listing on trainers and other high priced items?

[@JammyDodgerFlips]

Everything gets promoted at 2.1%

[@Mightytoon1]

What size are the Adidas gortex?

[@JammyDodgerFlips]

Size 8.5 UK - available on my shop ☺️

[@shakers4u]

You’ve probably done this but if going away on holiday it’s better to time the video release so you can say ‘by the time you’re watching this I’ll be back from holiday’. Just in case…

[@JammyDodgerFlips]

All good mate, I was home when this video came out 👍🏼 appreciate it though

[@Shiretops]

New balance look like counterfeit to be honest

[@JammyDodgerFlips]

Haha they all look fake, even the real ones!

[@shaunscaddan8168]

How much would you sell scarpa walking shoes for m8 l brought some for £10 pound in a charity shop just don't know how much too sell them for

[@JammyDodgerFlips]

Always depends on condition. I got £80 for a £10 pair from a chazza about a year back! If full leather, aim high.

[@shaunscaddan8168]

I put them up for 39.99 and keep getting low offers

[@JammyDodgerFlips]

@@shaunscaddan8168they should sell eventually, that’s a fair price for Scarpa! Unless they’re wrecked haha

[@ianmitchell1594]

What is your eBay name

[@JammyDodgerFlips]

Jams.ebazaar

[@waleed8774]

need a shoe cleainng video

[@JammyDodgerFlips]

👍🏼

[@Lellopomatovids]

Why do we promote resellers.. all they do is go crazy buying/scalping for a profit while others may actually want the item. If you resell dont make videos it should not be promoted

[@savannahsaid6906]

that's business, first come first serves, i don't have anything against it that's how people make a living :)

[@ChristineChapman-h3e]

I agree though ,knocking people down on Vinted when you know they are worth a lot more is a bit sad !

[@dottieland7061]

I tend to know so I refuse any silly offers as I can smell a reseller a mile off. As I used to sell on eBay but moved over to Vinted as it was just an awful place to sell. Vinted is great. But I do not really like resellers.

[@JammyDodgerFlips]

Haha if I don’t buy it at the cheap price, then the next guy will. In the short time I’ve been making KZbin videos, it has transformed my business and life for the better. I solely provide for my family from eBay and KZbin earnings, why would I want to stop that extra income?

[@JammyDodgerFlips]

That’s how business works though, I know more than the seller, so take advantage of that situation to make a profit. Also I don’t knock them down, I pay the price they are asking.
