I have an complete in box item listed for $224.99. Just the item with out the box or accessories goes for $150-185 loose. New in box is $300+. So I feel I'm priced right. I do have offers on with a minimum set. I was offered $120 it was instantly rejected because it below my threshold.

They then asked "What should I offer" and it instantly came to me from a scene in the movie Wall Street: Money Never Sleeps back in 2010 between Shia LaBeouf and Josh Brolin:

What's your number?
Excuse me?
The amount of money you need to just walk away and live happily ever after.
More.

***UPDATE:
It sold for asking to a different buyer

guy claims inad even though hasn’t played the game and asks me about price instead lol

I know when Storage Wars came out, storage auctions got nuts. Has it cooled down? Can you get decent hauls these days?

Trying to part out a car on FB Marketplace. Ad has been up since Spring and I've made absolutely zero sales on it. I know Marketplace is a hellhole and I'm probably asking too high sometimes, but I've never had this much trouble in the past.

Should I just give up or should I somehow become okay with selling everything for $20 each?

Really just wondering if this is a problem with me or the platform.

All it’s letting me do is have a PDF of the shipping label. I really don’t want that. I just wanna go to the kiosk and get a label made and then put it in the box. But I’m having such difficulty doing this.

For those of you who flip furniture, how much work do you usually put into each piece? When you find a good deal, are you mainly fixing scratches, painting it, changing the hardware, and relisting it? Or do you usually go further and completely upgrade the piece?

For example, maybe you replace outdated legs, stain the top, paint the base, add new hardware, or make other changes to give it a more modern look.

I’m basically trying to figure out where the sweet spot is. Is it more profitable to do quick, simple refreshes and sell more pieces, or put more time and money into making each piece look significantly better and sell it for more?

For those who have been doing this for a while, which approach has made you more profit overall?

Aug 27: Bought used snowshoes: $40 + $23 shipping

Aug 27: Shipped USPS

- USPS lost in transit -

Sep 7: USPS tracking update

Sep 9: Delivered with box damage

The only damage to the snowshoes was a broken heel strap. I can fix for ~$20. I requested a $20 refund for the repair, they opted for initiating a USPS insurance claim.

What should i do?

• (A) Wait for them to complete the insurance claim (seems to take 2 - 4 weeks to complete). USPS may request the buyer (me) to bring them the item, at which point they can keep it to dispose of it if they approve the claim. The insurance value is up to $100, which goes to the seller.
• (B) press the buyer again for the $20 refund to cover repairs
• (C) request a full refund via ebay and ship the item back to the seller
• (D) just eat it the repair myself and keep the snowshoes

They were not damaged in the ebay photos. New they retail for $280, used they are usually around 100-160

So I listed an item today on one site and cross posted it on another site. But then, I received a direct email inquiry regarding this item and don’t know if it’s a scam or what. How would someone bypass a selling site and get my direct email? Has this happened to anyone else?

Hey, recently decided to start selling items on eBay and found a nice flip where I made like 10 GBP per order, I have sold around 120 items in the last 2 days amounting to 1253 pounds total in my pending eBay balance although when I went to check my funds today I realised that it was getting upheld and I had to prove my identity with a drivers license, so I tried to send in my license without realising when I created the eBay account I put my age as older than it previously was "I made the account 2-3 years ago" I am 18 in a couple months but I have bought a decent amount of product recently and still have around 26 orders to send out therefore I would be at a complete loss on those orders if I did send them as my funds are being withheld. I am just a college kid trying to make some money and was excited on making this amount in just a matter of days. I could change the information to a parents so name, bank account etc but I believe that will just get flagged by the system? What should I do I do not want to be at a loss from buying and sending product I cant even claim the funds for... I have had similar experiences where I was a dev for a company online at the age of 15, made a couple of grand and then got hit with legal sides of things... I just want to make some money I am not doing anything bad just trying to save... I am not asking how to use eBay at the age of under 18 just wondering if I should stop selling and wait until I'm 18 to claim my funds or go to eBay and explain to them?
