For studio photography, turn off the fluorescent lighting when using the LED studio lights otherwise it will throw off the white-balance. Would recommend getting a proper camera over the phone for product photography, just a cheap used Olympus EM10 or Panasonic G80 and a basic lens will give you much more flexibility including exposure bracketing which is dead useful and speeds things up. I used to run my business from my sheds too, a basic dehumidifier will help no end when the frost comes as well as a bit of heating, best of luck with your sales mate.

Really interesting to see how you manage it. I'm trying to sell some of my own stuff and things from my parents house. It takes me hours to list something on Ebay. The forms seem endless and so far I mostly seem to make a loss after the fees! What's that app you use for finding out what things have sold for? That could be useful. I was thinking about listing my clothing on Vinted but haven't used it yet.

That nice fresh shed office is definitely a positive environment to work in from home… Beats a cold unit with no toilet 😜 Them train sets I sometimes sell and I never set them up, I literally check the motorised engine is working and running along a piece of track and bang it on in one picture and it’ll be gone in no time this time of year 🎄

Great video! Loved seeing your process - even little things like the phone neck-holder are awesome to see. Sometimes you don’t even realize you’ve got a problem until someone points it out. Definitely adding that to my Christmas list 🎄

@Joan-COYIАй бұрын
My biggest takeaway from years of your excellent videos is that we can walk away from what may look like a bargain and we need to factor in how long the item will take to sell, the time it would take to list and pack it or if it needs testing or attention. Then of course there’s the profit margin. Love your charity shopping. Thanks George. Hope silly season treats you well.

Thanks so much Joan! Yes there's definitely more to consider than just the bit of profit you may get at the end 👍🏻

It’s definitely worth being realistic about your limitations as we got 3 under 4 and one starts school next year so all of sudden it becomes 5 days a week like yourself.. thinking a workplace environment of some description is now needed home or not otherwise it may become hard to function. Only the one car in the household so…

Do you leave the heater on over night, if so you should put it on a timer, as heaters can over heat if left on all the time

Electrical heating is only ever 100% efficient.... You'll never get more out of it than what is put in. Which best buys are basically what ever company pays the most for the endorsement and genuinely means nowt in this day and age. As a carbon accountant all electrical heating is treated the same in terms of efficiency.

It’s great you think about your children’s happiness and drive them 20 mins to school each morning. You sound like wonderful parents. My mum moved house a lot when I was a kid and even though we were in the same area or not too far from the area she moved us to different schools a lot because it was convenient for her. I hated it so much. Having Asperger’s syndrome I don’t make friends easily so it was very upsetting and difficult changing schools a lot.

Tbf your price doesn't factor in postage or buyer protection that the buyer has to pay, so for £10 the buyer may have to pay 50% extra on top of that price
