[@dianehamm6637]

Re the promoted listings rates, it stands to reason they will continually go up as more sellers start using them. If only a few are promoting a small promotion will put you up there with them, but if hundreds are promoting you'll be competing for a higher position in search, hence needing a higher dollar amount. More and more influencers are recommending to promote at 10% and as more of their followers heed the advice...

Just FYI - We've bought 3 lots of old Canon Powershot cameras (8-10). Easy sales and got them for $4-8 each. HOWEVER after getting an unusual number of returns (plus eBay will override you if you say NO RETURNS, so don't bother) we did a little investigation after also starting to review actua SN #'s and found we were getting returns of NOT what we sent out. These were being bought Internationally, mostly S. Korea and Japan...it was actual bait and switch. Just an FYI...

[@collectmoe]

Thanks for another video Justin! Promoted listings is still gives me weird vibes. About 3 months ago I put my entire store at 2% (like you) and I did notice a jump at the beginning. Still some items that I comped and thought for sure these will sell, didn’t. So I would go back and check other eBay sales, and other sales were happening for other stores for same or similar items. I ran a few tests , I would do shoes a little higher 5-9% (since there is more competition) but I would still look for my listing on my “work phone” and I was pretty low on search results. Don’t get me wrong I still have been getting good sales, my 90 day is a little over 18K I removed my entire store from promoted listings about a month ago. And I’m still tracking about the same. I wish more people did tests and we all shared them together. Maybe someday. I’m coming up on 30days with 0 promoted , 100% my traffic is down. Impressions almost half! but my sales still continue to climb. Just “thinking out loud” or typing lol Thanks again for these videos! See ya soon.

[@mac-be2me]

feeling the pain , slow sales last week , a few lowballs declined on items i know will sell at full price eventually. I firmly believe in keeping that cash flow rolling but i saw this same thing last Summer ( my first Summer selling on eBay ) taking a deeper look into Product Research , gives a clearer picture of how seasonality plays into some products. As an example i found some Patagonia Wool Flannels , the selling price on them historically is much higher in January as compared to July. I dont see myself selling them at the low point no matter how slow its been. In fact im not even going to list them until possibly October just to avoid the endless declines in low ball offers, lately im getting low ball offers through messaging if i dont have the listing set to offers. Holding out ! stay strong ! LOL ! great content as always and nice finds !

[@lisagolden253]

I am so glad it isn't just me. I have around 1000 listings and usually average 6 sales a day. Last week was TERRIBLE. Hopefully just a passing summer slowdown. Thank you as always for great info and content. ❤

[@toxichazmat5785]

Ebay is definitely slow for a number of us, it's inflation combined with the time of year I think. May as well just keep listing for the fall when things will pick up.

[@Dannysthetics]

Im seeing it slowdown as well and I am starting too up my listings, odd

[@sidvicious9000]

Your comment on something be stated as "new" at a yard sale reminded me of a situation that happened to me a few weeks back. I picked up a pair of shoes and the person selling it said "those are new!". I proceeded to turn them over and saw they had a generous amount of mud in the treads hahaha. They then said they wore them once and found them too big, but obviously they wore them outside at least once, and I would not consider that "new". Needless to say they ended up asking way too much for me (to resell them, it may have been a decent price for someone buying them to use) especially considering they were used and I would have to do a deep clean.

I was big into PC games as a kid in the late 80s / early 90s. I loved the Police Quest series games… Police Quest SWAT was huge when it came out. Very similar in feel to later games like Rainbow Six, but with the classic Police Quest style stories / missions. I had Descent on my old Panasonic 3DO console in the mid 90s.

[@jcc5018]

Im curious, if you scan an item and determine it sells, what is the minimum potential profit do you hope to see before making the purchase?

[@mikephillips628]

Do you run a risk when offering free shipping, especially if you have to ship the item internationally? I'd like to start offering more free shipping options, but don't want to get burned if having to spend more than $7-$8 in shipping costs. Thanks for any input.

[@kenpoS2K]

Do you feel like it is better to list movies,games, cds, or multiple similar items on one listing using variations or list them all separately?

[@metavinci427]

Since May I’ve focused on two things. Improving my APS. And listing less small ROI. Happy to say my listings as down 4.8% but my ASP is up 28% ($69.95). Less work more take home. Sure I pay up to acquire mostly but a 3x on a 100 item adds up quick.

[@AmberKlassen-uw6xh]

Hi Justin, thank you so much for your insight, efforts and great videos! You've given me the confidence to start selling and I'm about 2 months in now. I watched the video about promoted listings and set a lot of my sales to the promoted 2% as suggested. Later I looked at my listings and it looks like Ebay had assigned a campaign to each of them. There is an "Edit Campaign'" underneath each of the percentage boxes with a radio dial that seems to indicate there is a campaign assigned. Am I doing something wrong or is that just where you'd go if you wanted to do a campaign? I really don't want to get into campaigns, just standard promotion for 2% fee upon sale. TY :)

[@ErikNordstrom-k5s]

Hey man, love the channel, both reinforces stuff I think I know and teaches me new stuff on almost every video. Been selling for years now, and the question I have is: eBay has somewhat recently upped their "recommend specifics" to what I consider unnecessary levels...do you fill these in, or just hit the check mark that says "don't remind me about these anymore" and go on with your day? Do buyers actually search for these criteria? Am I wasting time trying to fill them out, or missing sales by ignoring them? Thanks!

[@frankblive]

Tribes...definitely a really cool game back in the day.

[@LS-mv5zl]

For the SKIMS, were you allowed to use the product stock photos because you bought directly from SKIMS for reselling and got approval or something? I thought that was something u caution against because of VERO

[@Mindfulthrifter]

Hey Justin, im wondering how you decide what items you will charge shipping on and what are free postage ? I've noticed that in some categories , it is expected that shipping is free i.e. books , but clothing esp in Oz , all have postage in addition . I've noticed that since expanding from just books my ROI has improved considerably !

[@MikeHursh]

Justin, thanks so much for all you give to the reselling community. I'm a happy Flipwise customer, and I hope this is the appropriate place to suggest a product enhancement. I would love to be able to take a photo at the point of purchase (estate sale, garage sale, thrift, etc.), record the purchase price and notes, and, ideally, automatically geotag. As my store grows, I'm finding it harder and harder to remember where and what I paid for something. Today, we complete Flipwise data after we list the item; someday, I'd love to be able to start my inventory in Flipwise and track where I list it...

[@justinresells]

Hi Mike, we're working on functionality now that will allow you to add your inventory directly to Flipwise as you suggest instead of having to first list it on eBay. We hope to have that done before Summer is out!

[@itscholeman1967]

hey Justin, love your content. I have 2 questions for you... #1 my payouts do not reflect my 90-day total. Is this because of shipping and fees? Even when i add up my all of my sold items, it does not add up to my 90-day total (I'm new so this is all of my sales). Lastly would you be able to show us what we should be keeping track of on a spreadsheet? (for tax purposes) I have a google sheet with the item, purchase price, purchase date, sold price, sold date. I feel like I'm either keeping track of the wrong things or not enough things. Thanks!

[@HeyMsVal]

That's a great question. I'm in the same boat. I'm fairly new at this. But I did figure out that the amount that they pay me out is minus the shipping and fees. I started a spreadsheet listing the item, the date posted, the date sold, the listing price, the actual selling price, the fees, the shipping that I paid, the final amount and my net profit. I'm hoping this information is good enough for tax purposes. I write the mileage on each receipt. I'm not in a position right now to add on any subscriptions or apps to do the math for me.

[@brianburleson1084]

I look forward to get to see your videos each week!! Thanks for providing KZbin for us! I need help with the actual setup, for selling out of the country settings! I am not currently including any other countries, but I am still having Canada buyers make offers and then they cant purchase because I am not listed for Canada. Then I end the item and then restarted that item, now including Canada, and the cheapest shipping fee was $47 (1lb 8x6x4) package! Is there a way to list for other countries and it doesn't list for a really high shipping fee? Sorry kind of poorly asked. (Canada buyers didn't want to pay for that high shipping cost - in the USA it was a $95 item with $9.87 shipping)?

Hi - I have been watching your videos religiously for the last few months and have been growing my eBay store. Thank you for the helpful content. My question is, when listing items with 1 day handling time (as someone with a full time job during business hours) it is impossible for me to ship something the next day if the items sells after 10:00 PM when I’m sleeping. I can generate the shipping label the following day of course but not get the item to post office. Is that ok? I’m a top rated seller and want to get ensure I don’t get dinged for not adhering to the 1 day timing.

16:20 don’t be so hard on your content. Some people might not have any sales yet, and your videos are informative for them to take their listings to the next level. Not every sale is a home run.

[@johnross3295]

Thumbs up! Thanks Justin. Quick question... I thought I recalled a video where you almost always offered free shipping, and just built the cost of the shipping into the sales price. Yet I see that most everything you sold in this video had a shipping cost to the buyer. Have you had a change of heart about free shipping? TIA.

Also, most PC Games from the 90s in box are BOLOS (especially sealed can go for outrageous amounts of money) and most point-and-click games from back then are worth picking - anything that says LucasArts or Sierra

I’m not sure where to ask questions but hope this will do. Love your videos! Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge and experience. How do you keep records for what you buy at yard sales, etc where there is typically no receipt given?

[@Antiqueexcavator]

Long time eBay seller here. I attend estate and garage sales every week. I inventory everything I purchased on paper. At the top I put the location of the sale and the total I spent. if I know what I paid for each item I do itemize by item. If I don’t I’ll estimate that amount giving each item a value so that the entire lot adds up to the total amount paid. Then I enter everything I purchased into a spreadsheet grouped by each sale and by date. This makes it easy to figure the cost of item sold when I post my sales each week. I actually use 3 spreadsheets for my accounting. 1) Master Inventory. On this spreadsheet I enter every item I buy grouped by date and location of sale. This sheet has the following columns: Date, name of item, cost of item, sold amount and date sold. 2) current Inventory: When I enter my inventory into my master inventory sheet I also copy that info into this spreadsheet grouped exactly the same way. When I post my weekly sales I’ll remove all sold items from this spreadsheet. This allows me to know the exact amount i paid for the entire inventory in my warehouse at any given time. 3) sales by month spreadsheet. This keeps track of my sales and the net profit by month. I hope this helps! Antiqueexcavator on eBay.

[@pamprier4710]

Justin, had a weird thing happen a few days ago. My daughter occasionally comes across things that she then brings me to list on ebay. This time she had a World of Warcraft item. Since neither of us were very familiar with it, we each used ebay lens; came up with nothing. Then we each used Google lens...sitting in the same room, just a few feet apart - and each of us has an Android phone - yet we came up with different results! Which we found very confusing and frustrating. Hers led her to ebay listings, so did mine... yet again, when we typed in the exact same words to ebay, mine could not find any results, while hers found similar but not identical results to what we had typed in. This can be extremely confusing, especially to newcomers. Got any suggestions?

[@michaelandmason]

what seller level do i need to have for "promoted listings" ?

[@bethgreen6216]

Justin, now that you have been using PL for about a year, what has been the trajectory of your sales lift longer term? My thought was that turning them on may lead to a shorter term spike (like the doubling you reported) but longer term I'm wondering what that inflated number of impressions (shown to people who may or may not have been keyword searching a match to your specific item) does to the click through and sales conversion rates that eBay tracks. These metrics very much have an impact on organic search placement. My resistance to using PL is that I would not want to "trade" my high organic placement for a PL placement that rotates among all the other promoters and could damage my placement/sales down the road. I have done many tests on promotions and can confirm it only took a few days for my organic "top 20 search slot impressions" to drop from around it's normal percentage of 18-20% into low single digits. Has your sales lift held steady at double of where you were at pre-promotions? Or did you find that was a shorter or mid-term bump that eventually left you close to where you started before you promoted? Basically, how is your sell through rate currently compared to what it was before you ever used PL? Thanks!

[@bethgreen6216]

Just to add, I haven't run into anyone who uses promoted listings who has a Top 20 Search Slot Impressions percentage (in Traffic section) over single digits.

[@justinresells]

This year it was slightly lower, making up 48% of my sales, but obviously still pretty high.

[@DarrenHottinger]

I went 3 out of 5 days last week with zero sales, no offers to buyers, nothing but tumbleweeds and crickets.

[@Aaramlias]

Promoted listings is whatever the percentage is on the price of the item. the shipping and the taxes. At 5% I lose about 35% to 40% off my items I find many times. Also it seems like when you have it on Ebay tends to put it on everything at times, even stuff that I is not supposed to be promoted.

Speaking to your point about listing random things to see if there's any demand: I bought a storage unit at an auction a couple months ago for $40 and it was mostly junk as they typically are, but amongst the trash I found a stack of newspapers and magazines from Medellin, Colombia from the day Pablo Escobar was killed in 1993. I almost threw them away, but instead decided to list them individually and ended up selling all 5 pieces in less than a month for $800 total. You just never know what "trash" might actually be worth something so there's no harm in giving it a shot!

no problem. also keep in mind there is a free plan for smaller stores, so you should see if you’re small enough to qualify for that

I hope you do much better next week, but part of me (the asshole part) hopes you don't because your commentary about the flips of the week were hilarious. I have a question for you about notifications; do you manage them at all? I get annoying pop-ups from the Ebay app about items I looked at to price things I'm selling. It can be frustrating to think you got something about a sale, but no; the 'made in occupied Japan' mug (that I already have two of) is now 5% off. Thanks Ebay!

I am struggling more than ever on eBay, feeling very defeated.

Change my mind: People who refuse to promote any listings are either overly attached to their items or spent too much money on them.
