The Logistics of How I Run My eBay Business - Photos, Listing, and Storage

[@inkedpicker]

Love seeing how resellers all operate their store differently than one another. Can learn a thing or two.

[@toothoot8202]

I love watching these videos on how businesses organize/store their products.

[@robertachristenson6916]

This is very interesting, keep up the great videos tx

[@charlottefranklin295]

Very interesting thanks

[@tradermunky1998]

Tim marked his territory, nice.

[@miapelkey1504]

This was satisfying to watch!

[@nickmoney]

Good old low ef......... educational Resale Rabbit content.

[@vacuumandgaspressurecoexisting]

I use natural light for my product photos. The drawback is that it is always changing so not viable for all business models or products for that matter, but I find that it is worth it to make the items pop more. Taking proper photos can set the item apart from the competition and in the eyes of the buyer justify a higher price, especially when dealing with things that are valuable, sought after and quick sellers. Most people that sell things online these days are extremely lazy in their listings, selling dusty items photographed with their cellphone.

It's spooky how much my ebay procedure is like yours. I did steal your idea for labeled boxes. Right now I'm selling some high end recording studio equipment. I always take a photo of the serial number, and put it in the listing just to show possible scammers that I am ready for them.

Love the old vhs tapes Rab, well done.👍

This video kicked my OCD into overdrive. The massive UN organization of that warehouse is unreal. Take the time to get the entire place organized and your whole business will operate more efficiently !

[@TheChristianna321]

He has an employee that is basically doing just that! Is hard to see the progress with inventory constantly moving in and out, and everything being in giant boxes, but it really is much better than it was before

[@justmeiniowa]

@@TheChristianna321 That's a scary thought that this is AFTER organization ahs started lol ;)

[@DrifterThrifters]

​@@justmeiniowaimpossible to fully organise his business...just how it is

[@GuyWithTheDogs]

Your OCD sounds like a personal problem.

[@Bcco1968]

If you’re a reseller, then you would know that it’s impossible to keep certain areas of the warehouse clear just because of the volume coming in and out so it’s as good as it gets. Listing and reselling is not for everyone.

[@nickmoney]

Selling pins, bag clips, magnets, figures and small goods are so much easier for me.

[@JohnDoe-km1po]

You should keep a spare tape that you just threw away from that camera to test other cameras when you have them. You can also include them with cameras. Just take a strong magnet and run it across the tape a few times on both sides and all that private video is now completely erased as if the tape was brand new.

[@ResaleRabbit]

I’ve got a handful of them. I just used the one that was in it because it was closest.

[@TheChristianna321]

Your time estimate at the end also didn't include time spent shipping the sold items! So on an average 8hr your typical eBay person should expect: 1hr shipping 4 hrs listing 3 hrs testing/shopping depending on the inventory (Plus breaks & lunch)

[@videohistorysnippets8963]

Liking the way you go about your listing, I’d love to get in there and do a tidy up though lol😂

[@combatmicah4501]

I really want to come in for a month and just clean and organize the whole warehouse.

[@TheChristianna321]

That's Ben's job!

[@TheGuinnessgirl]

Thank you for the video 👍🏻

[@ScotiaAnthony-t5y]

We need a new Tim! Lol!

[@ThirstyThifter]

I can't believe I didnt think about the scanner for PC listing. Thats the main reason I dont on PC is the "sell similar" is so much slower on PC compared to phone. the scanner speeds that up so much.

[@SHERRY0010]

First comment 😊 Thanks for this one . You also do estate sales I see . Would you take us through that process ? Thank you .

[@vinyl1Earthlink]

There was an estate sale video a couple of months ago.

[@NoWayNeverAgain]

Hard to make unboxing/palletvideos all the time, but am I right to think that that’s you’re most popular videos?

[@olgadw4730]

Please do a clean up video. Even a small area. The under the dek ebay and photography floors almost made me faint. Love all your content.

[@thehappycamper3299]

Rabbit, I love your videos! Can you make a video that explains eBay fees? I was told if I listed over 400 items I would be charged more. I do this as a hobby and I love it, so much fun. By the way, I’m the guy that sent you the tall Stake and Shake glasses a while back, hope you enjoy them. Thanks Rabbit! God bless!

[@ResaleRabbit]

The only way I could see you being charged more if you list over a specific amount of items is if you have a store that includes a certain number of free listings. I think the fee is $0.10-25 per listing after that, but the amount of free listings will vary depending on your store level and promotions eBay is offering that month.

[@albertpaulo6079]

I didn’t know about the sell similar button

[@vinyl1Earthlink]

I see you haven't found your replacement for Tim yet. Since you have so much stuff to list, you can easily use a full-time employee doing these listings all day. Your eBay store is now down to 2035 items.

[@TheChristianna321]

He does need a new person. But because it is such an important part of the business, he wants to make sure he brings in the best person possible, not just any random person.

[@karensosa4767]

You did not put the expiration date on the pet medication? I would want to know if I was going to purchase it.

[@terenceseymour-tf8rptassie725]

I think during lockdown when you were doing daily ebay picks the pink cosmetics baskets had just come in and you made the comment that you would probably sell the baskets . It looks like you did not or at least you kept some of them.

[@susananthony2366]

John, do you find yourself thinking in a video voice after you've finished recording a long while?

[@TheChristianna321]

❤❤❤

[@Kenthis15]

I have people suggest to me regularly that I should reorganize my eBay storage. And I should, but that’s time I could be listing. So no.

[@greytbritton]

It takes less than 30 days for most people to use your camcorder to transfer their videos and then return it to you. I wouldn’t have free returns on it and I wouldn’t point it out that it’s an option.

[@petersucha520]

Hi Rabbit, thanks for this video ... very valuable for me as i am also eBay seller ... Just few questions: 1. what is your "process" when you have more items of the same type (for example 4x the same movie on WHS - probably impossible to sell as bundle)? ... do you have number of items somewhere in description, or in SKU, or ... or you will list the same item 4 times? ... or you will relist the same item immediately after your 1st item was sold? 2. do you have some kind of eBay shop prepaid? ... basic, or some higher type? Thank you very much for answers

[@kimfrommn7162]

@petersucha520 Hi Peter!! I really do not know how he will answer your questions, I am just as interested to know what he advices you!! I do know from watching other Resellers Videos, that Resellers like it when they have a multiple of one type of item, because they only need to make 1 listing for all the items, and then minus out 1each every time they sell an item!! But...I do not know if they do 1 listing when numerous serial numbers are involved. I'll be excited to hear what he has to say! I hope I didn't confuse you to badly by stepping into your questions!! I was glad to see that in his description of an item in a listing, he likes copying/paste from another Resellers listings of an exact item that he will be reselling. I see that happening in a lot of Resellers Videos. I have not started Reselling at this time, looking at a few options, but I find this all very interesting!! I believe Resale Rabbit is very knowledgeable in all the different areas he buys/sells in, and I enjoy his Videos Very Much!!!! I feel he is one of the top resellers and I Love his Motivation!!! He is very dedicated to his career!! I hope you have a Happy Tuesday!!! 🤗❤️👍🙋🏻‍♀️

[@ResaleRabbit]

It really depends on the item. Sometimes I’ll make multiple listings, other times I’ll do one listing with quantity. I have a eBay store (the $75/month store).

[@petersucha520]

@@ResaleRabbit Thank you for reply I checked eBay subscription fees ... it is Premium store ... US $75/month (without plan) ... but only US $60/month (with 1 year plan)

[@ResaleRabbit]

Ooh, that’s new! I’m gonna go look at it!

[@missd1428]

Can I ask you how much you pay for your Wharehouse each month?

[@steveherr450]

when he did his last video 4 days ago saying he made money for 2023 has his yearly breakdown espenses and if i remember correctly it breaks down to $6500 a month in 2023 but i think that number is up for 2024 they way he talked.

[@MiniBrad]

Rabbit, ever find any weird videos on all the camcorders you sell?

[@ResaleRabbit]

I never really watch them through, but usually it’s kids sporting events / recitals, birthdays, baby’s, pets, just standard home video stuff.

[@DrifterThrifters]

Will never ever understand how people think listing on computer is faster than the phone...just impossible

[@ResaleRabbit]

I get more listings done in less time on the computer than I do on the eBay app.

[@DrifterThrifters]

@@ResaleRabbit i can't see how, takes me 5 times longer on the computer

[@TomThatcher-wi2fj]

Are you going to hire a new person for eBay?

[@andrewhorner1078]

why dont you have a link to your ebay store

[@SHERRY0010]

Look under the “more”. John has the link listed .

[@Mart-ds4yq]

Did I miss a video? Is Tim no longer working for you?

[@TheChristianna321]

He moved with his family a few hours away, so he had to quit

[@Mankindisunkindman]

Any thoughts how I can get pallets of e waste in Michigan??

[@ResaleRabbit]

Call around to recycling centers that handle ewaste.

[@springfling49]

I thought that e-waste recycling meant that the products were being sent to facilities for breakdown. Presumably, these facilities recover the valuable materials and salvage other materials for recycling. As a donor, i would not expect my items to be taken out of the waste stream and put back into public use.

[@ResaleRabbit]

Most ewaste places will send items off for reuse in some capacity. The order of operations are “Reduce, Reuse, Recycle”. If something can be reused, and they can get more money for it that way (rather than recovering the metals) they’ll go that route. If you send them something that holds data (like a computer) they’ll usually pull the hard drive and either wipe it or destroy it before the commodity is sold.
