ANYTHING is better than selling on Amzn FBA..Bezos n company have made it ridiculous to sell on that platform anymore..think Ebay's fees are bad?? Used to sell media books and was HUGE into vitamins and supplements..six figure + seller at one point..buying gaylords of books media at a time and supplements as well..but with the increase in seller fees, storage fees, returns, race to the bottom on pricing, repricers, and constant battle to get and keep the "Buy Box" it wasnt worth the headaches..also new policies put in place regarding supplements where u needed documentation frm companies and other sources just to sell those items..real PITA!! Retired old fart now and just sell collectibles with a decent size 10K item and less store..passive income pretty much evry mth i can count on without much effort since i source mostly in bulk..

[@crisabato4529]

Question. With an item like that printer will you bubble wrap it and box it up or just put label on the box?

[@claudialandow1106]

The next time you sell a Bose subwoofer, please show how you pack and ship it. (or have you done a video on that already?) Thanks for the great video and information!)

[@user-uc2cs4es6g]

I live in California and thrift store’s especially Goodwill price items at EBAY prices. I saw a pair of worn Hoka shoes for $38.99. I am so jealous watching sellers in other states. Jeans are either $15.99 or prices individually for higher. I need to come to Utah!

[@LilRed59]

Jrider. I get so confused bout algorithms. I have been reselling on EBay for about a month. I’ve only sold 4 things with 136$ and so discouraged. I have everything I need for shipping. But I was wondering do I need to buy or purchase for Ads? Help, please. I watch you videos daily and you sell so much , so fast and I’m so slow and wondering if I need to change type of items. Thank you, you are so awesome t all you share. I personally thank you so much. Gods Blessings to you!!

[@beth6419]

Hey Jake how are you authenticating your AirPods before listing? I had a new package my friend had given me and I listed on eBay and it got taken down the next day. I had no idea that it was not authentic and either did my friend.

[@jodimurphy8440]

Okay, I'm going to be *that* person, but only for your benefit. In your video title, it should be "Better THAN" (not better then). Eeek, forgive me. Appreciate you.

I think I know what you had hernia surgery having been selling hardware for the last few months growing steadily....humping around items in the 15 to 50 pound range daily and stacking those same things in and out of your car to higher shelves etc really takes its toll on your back

[@dripdropsdetroit1465]

Love the content, but I respectfully disagree. I sell used electronics and I make twice as much selling them on Amazon as I do selling them on eBay. I'm not worried about the race to the bottom because eBay IS the bottom. I source products on eBay to flip on Amazon. Plus Amazon has significantly more people shopping on it than eBay, and I don't have to take photos of my items like I do with eBay.

[@michaeljames3918]

I agree. I am doing the same. I am finding all sorts of goodies on Ebay auctions online, and then picking up all those items at that thrift store's warehouse once every two weeks, to flip on Amazon. Easy money.

[@JrideFlips]

There’s alot of ways to make money especially online. Just giving another perspective. Many of my friends are getting eaten alive on fba and private label

Ebay has removed my selling limit as of mid March. I don't have a store. I have less than 100 items listed. Have they done it with everyone? I first signed up with Ebay in 1999. Just taken it more seriously the last 2-3 years as I was home healing from a bad car accident. I have 100% feedback. But only 238 as a seller.

[@hustle-n-grow]

I know the title is meant to be clickbait, but honestly, there's no world in which Ebay is better than Amazon FBA, even with Amazon fees. Hell, with Ebay's Promoted Listings most sellers are matching, if not exceeding, Amazon fees at this point. Besides that, Ebay plays its role

[@JrideFlips]

It’s not clickbait. It’s to get younger fba sellers like myself to enter a world of reselling they’ve never tried

[@hustle-n-grow]

Yeah I feel like the only thing ebay is better for is categories you can't sell preowned on amazon.

[@coreyflaa2174]

Ebay just dropped fees for selling pre-owned clothing?? is this effective immediately? been watching you for a few weeks religiously now! Just started this year and I'm around $99 a day as a side hustle. Long way to go but you have good ideas that have helped!

[@JrideFlips]

That promotion is currently only for the UK. If you’re a US seller there is no change currently. I appreciate you watching!

[@LUMBEEPHENOM2012]

I do both my friend and eBay doesn’t hold a candle to Amazon. A lot of people are doing Amazon completely wrong but I don’t want to give away to many details lol

do you offer returns on international?

[@JrideFlips]

eBay take care of all international returns through their international shipping program

[@metoast69]

what app are you using... Ebay App?? I mean when sourcing to see what sells on Ebay

[@mcname5556]

You just take pictures or scan barcode on the normal eBay app next to the search bar

[@Anthony-wg7fn]

are you saying that you found a diesel watch at a thrift store?

[@JrideFlips]

Yes I find them a few times a year

[@thecriticalobserver7585]

I think everybody has to realize that the reseller business as we know it is going to be closing down pretty soon. Why, because thrift stores are getting wise to how to use the same app we have to measure the price and they're not going to give things away anymore like they used to. And of course most other sellers will be also using the app. So where's the advantage? There will be no advantage😮

[@zombro7922]

Only true to a point, Goodwill still has $1.50 for the color of the week on Sundays. I picked up a 1960 Corning Tea Kettle for $1.50 and resold it for $140. The buys are there but my issue with eBay is the fees on fees on fees!

[@thecriticalobserver7585]

@@zombro7922 yes and they've actually stopped advertising on Google as I understand it

[@JrideFlips]

There is ALWAYS an advantage. The best companies and entrepreneurs always win

[@mauison]

I use thrift stores for only around 5% of my sourcing. The other 95% is garage sales, rummage sales, and estate sales. If thrift stores are too expensive in your area, switch to garage sales.

[@thecriticalobserver7585]

Dude why are you Shilling so hard in this video? Did ebay buy you off?

[@mert4787]

He is not shilling. I feel the exact same way. EBay, regardless of what you may feel about it, is an incredible value. And they do make mistakes, like rolling out major updates in the middle of 4th quarter. But when you consider the value for your money that you get, it's insane. They market your products to an audience of millions. They then provide you shipping discounts of 40% which they negotiated with the major carriers. You are then able to print labels on their site and then they upload tracking information to your customers for you. And then after you are paid they process the payments for you at rates that are better than any other credit card processor, and then send you your payments daily via a c h for free. All of the people I hear complaining about eBay obviously have no experience in marketing and have never ran a retail store, online or brick and mortar. If you ever tried to set up an online presence and try to use SEO to market your products, and then negotiate shipping discounts and credit card processing rates, you would come running back to eBay and be throwing your money at them.
