thank you so much bruh😭 ive been going to garage sells and buying cheap stuff that sell for a lot on eBay and this video helped me finally sell them😭 just made my first thousand. honestly couldn't have done it without this guide THANK YOU
How long did it take?
is there a usps/place to get free boxes in the UK? preferably england?
I'm fourteen, and have been wanting to sell a bunch of games I no longer play, but honestly I was terrified to try, and that I might mess it up, but this video is very helpful, and has made me more confident in starting to sell items on Ebay.
great, you will need parental consent. Good Luck.
It's alright. Same here and I'm 59. 👍🙂
Good for you. You are a young entrepreneur.🙏
I’m right there with ya man, I’m 14 just lookin for a side hustle and it seems that this just might be the way!
May I ask what made you (OP & anyone else) choose eBay rather than a free way to sell like Craigslist, Nextdoor, or FB Marketplace?
For me, I am a maker, all the items I will be selling are hand made.. I have been a buyer on ebay for many many years, first time getting ready to use ebay to sell my products, I am at the point where I am making well more then I can sell at flea markets and facebook marketplace.. Thank you for sharing all sound and solid information
If you spend enough time you can even purchase your inventory from ebay itself. Certain auctions with bad titles end up going for less than they would otherwise, and some people just sell big collections you can break down into many listings
Thank you for this video! We do Junk Removal and often come across pretty cool and unique items. Unfortunately, many of these unique items are too specific for most people on Facebook, so eBay has been on my radar for a while. This video was very helpful to get us started!
Thank you! Very informational! I'm trying to get started doing this resale thing.
you were actually the first jewelry video I ever watched about five six years ago but just don't have much time until I retired to watch a lot of videos like I used to before starting my channel
hello and happy new year. You know something that goes unnoticed is that the multi tester III presidium tester helps a lot to know if any gem is genuine or fake but also. It helps to know in simulant if you have a genuine sapphire or Ruby, if so this reaches simulant and if it goes from that level to diamond it is likely that they have a colored diamond
This was the perfect overview I was looking for .
OMG thank you so much! Could not be more perfect timing. So appreciated.
You're so welcome!

That’s for the video; very Helpful.
Thank you so much, you make me really feel confident about selling on eBay and l am over seventy yrs old, l am going to start out crawing on Ebay, then take baby steps. I have seen many beginner videos on how to sell on Ebay but this one breaks it down where any body can under stand. I will also watch your other vidoes to take me to the next level . Thank you so much .
Thanks for providing links. I'm a newbie looking to sell some extra things I've accumulated.
Nobody says this in their startup videos, buuuuut… don’t forget to establish a small PO Box for your shipping returns. YW!
Thank you. That was helpful.
Hello Margaret you are so helpful and ‘real’. I enjoy and learn from your videos. Thank you so much
You are so welcome

Great show as always . Thanks

Glad it was helpful!
Thank you Margaret For explaining things so well you are appreciated Ma'am. I'm excited to start selling again blessings to you.
Best of luck!
Very great video, thank you. 👍
It’s been a number of years since I had some items to sell on eBay and I have to say it was a good experience mostly but a video concise and to the point as yours would have definitely helped and now that I find myself in a situation sooner then later of having numerous items to sell I thank you very much for this bud👍

@@user-yd6cr9nd5q USPS means United States Postal Service. If you're in Great Britain, you'll need to check with your mail delivery service.
Thank you Margaret for all the good info. Please do a video on how do you store your inventory for sale. Also Do you pack it up right after you list it and before you sell it? What do you say on your thank you notes? It looked like a lot of info on there. Also how do you not get attache to the things u buy? I only buy things that bring me joy, that I love, that I think other people would want to buy but then of course I love them too and I want to keep them. Any tips? Please help. I have too much inventory and not enough sells because of my lack of listing because of my attachment. 😊
Hi yiu totally missed out the shipping options which is what I have been finding really difficult.
All the rest I found easy to do.
Shipping options thats what I need to know about
I want to thank you I have been thinking of doing this for some time I love thrift stores but honestly I can keep everything this way I get the thrill of shopping and bringing some needed income. Again thank you.
You are so welcome!
Really liked the video. just starting out and this really helped.thanks
Glad to hear it!
Thank you a lot for the video. It’s really helpful
You are welcome!
Thanks.nice video😊.
Thank you! Just ordered free packaging material!
Hey @andy2more475, Thanks so much for watching!
Thank you for this !
My pleasure!
Margaret, I have been following you for quite awhile now and I just want to thank you for all of your advise. We set up our account a while ago and we have been collecting inventory and we have just got our first sale! It was a Poloroid camera (sold in one day) that we have had since our honeymoon in 2003. I’ve held onto it for sentimental reasons but decided it was time to let go of it. We have collected a ton of items from yard sales and I’m a little overwhelmed at trying to list it all. But I have started sifting thru it all and bunching like items, ie: shoes, clothing, toys, as so on. Again, thank you so much for all your great advice! Of all the CZcamsrs, you are by far my favorite.
@jana-NonniesThisNThat, :) Thank you very much!! :)

TY!
Good stuff. Thanks.
Glad you enjoyed it
Thanking you
Thank you ma'am.
thank you so much, I have never sold any thing on eBay (sure bought plenty ) just subscribed regards.
Thanks for the sub!
Best thing about eBay is don't get involved they raise their prices because they're losing business And sellers/buyers are leaving e-bay because of their unfriendly attitude employees
thank you
OK Texas Gal you are going to be one of my "go to's because I'm just starting and I have about three people I'd like to follow. Oh and I'm sure I'll find out how upload. I already learned a few things but I'm going to keep it simple. Thanks Texas!!
Thank you!

Hi really love the content
Glad you enjoy it!
Excellent information!!!!
Glad it was helpful!
Thx I learned something new 😊
I'm glad!
hello, I just started researching on how to sell online and your video is the most helpful that I have found thank you. I lost my site later in life and after a year of job hunting and no luck I'm curious about trying to sell online, do you know any blind sellers that I can learn from so I can be better guided as to how to figure out the logistics?
I admired a woman with expertise and knowledge that didn't know how to begin thank you so much❤
You are so welcome
Thank you for sharing, this was most helpful. We are purging our house,, way too much stuff for two people. Who knows this could turn into a side biz!
Glad it was helpful!
Great video , thx
Glad you enjoyed it
So helpful! 😊
I'm so glad!
Hey how do you take your photos for the products you sell. I believe that is a huge factor regarding whether people buy or not.
Can you do a video tutorial on how to print the shipping label from eBay. 'Cause I don't know how to do that.
Thanks so much for this valuable info. Just wondering if anyone knows if I can use a personal account I already have?
Me subscribers here, I’m a full-time employee. And I’m thinking to start selling products on eBay and your video’s really helpful. I would like to learn more about selling products on eBay,please I need your help. Thanks!
Awesome content!
Appreciate it!
Car boots (UK) are also a fantastic place to find stufff to sell on.
Great work
Thank you so much 😀
This is interesting. But I’m still confused when it comes to shipping such as including the shipping label and some questions the ups asks me. I remember sending something that costs way more than what the person who bought it paid.
Is it possible to just get a cardboard box and bring it to the post service after everything is packed up. Or does the postal service only takes priority stuff?
Thank you so much. I love that this was a 10 minute and not a 60 minute video. For people that want it to go slower, stop the video!!
Glad you liked it!
I got a few questions
1. So like are these fees like stuff that they take from the product I sold or just from my account
2. Would eBay give me the shipping label to print or would I have to make one
3. Once the item has been purchased how long will it take to get paid
Trying learn to sell on eBay first time ! To open account do I have to contact eBay ! ?
Seems like the shipping part can get complicated. Thanks for your video.
Do I have to sign up as a store to sell on eBay? I want to sale items I purchased myself or items I’ve received from family and friends? How many listings per month do I get if I don’t have to sign up as a store?
hi Margaret. haven't caught one of your videos in a while I used to watch you under my actual name instead of my channel name. but since starting my own channel and having a full time job and family. oh my gosh does it take up so much time. also getting ready to start listing on again. now that I am getting ready to retire. I have three stores Poshmark Etsy and eBay and when I was actively listing I always did the best on eBay what do you recommend for higher end sterling silver and costume. I just don't have the time to maintain three stores so just going to concentrate on one. and since I stopped listing a lot of people are complaining about eBay fees and that it just being much more difficult to list on there then it was. definitely letting Poshmark go but I can't decide between eBay and Etsy macari etc. I can't keep up with cross listing either so I just want to narrow it down to one store and put all my efforts into that one. which do you do the best on. and which one do you think has the least fees and best sales
Do you even need a starter account or could you just keep it at a personal account until you build up inventory?
Hello! The link for the photo box is no longer available. Would you mind telling me the brand or maybe post a new Amazon link to it?
What were some of your first items to list.please.Just to get an 💡 idea
Auctions r great place to find deals
How does the authentication process work for designer items I want to purchase?
Shes amazing. Thanks. Make more vids
Should I use a personal ebay account or business account
I can’t tell you how much I found in my home that I can sell. Great video!
is there a usps/place to get free boxes in the UK? preferably england?
Hey hi ❤.. thanks a bunch for the info. I have a doubt.
I have 10 paintings which i want to sell on ebay. Is there an insertion fee for each of em or is it free?

I have an eBay account but it's not working for me and I have custom made drinkware. Are you able to assist me also?
To answer your question, so far the majority of my inventory is free stuff. I have only done a few thrift store purchases so far. I get free stuff from Craigslist and Nextdoor I live in a major city with a high population so there is so much FREE stuff on the daily. Also I live in a 36 unit apartment complex, we leave things for each other in our laundry room or by the recycling for free. I have gotten so much good stuff (the majority of my inventory so far) just from here where I live. I plan to start driving around other apartment complexes especially at the end of the month and beginning of the month when people are moving. I also dumpster dive, and get stuff for free when taking out our trash and recycling in the center where I work. One day someone left a box of 155 magazines by the recycling at work all in excellent condition. I looked every single one up. The sold prices range from a low of 10.99 to a mid price of 39.99 to a high of $259 all pre-owned. Then there is my family and friends who all want me to come help them purge and I am! I have a calendar full of who and when. I actually had a customer at my part time job have me come transfer a car load of items from her car to my car after she heard me talking about starting my little bizniz. And bonus I LOVE the curb fairy and find things as I am driving around town all the time. I am excited to start hitting sales at big box stores especially after the holidays. Working retail myself I am hyper aware of the 75% off sales happening right now! Here is a big hint for everyone if you have a Hallmark store near you go buy keepsake ornaments!!! P.S. I am late for my 1/1/23 launch date as I got sick. I am days away from it now! Woot!
What’s the update
I agree. Too fast and skipped over steps for example more detail as far as account setup payment options. Appreciate the effort though in the work that went into this. For me I would like to have seen several videos and more detail in each video. Thank you
How do you get to the your selling overview.
Right now I have subscribed Starter Store package but I can't still increase my listing item (Only 10 items per month), and I can't increase price more than $400 totally. How can I solve this problem?
Thanks i feel so lost but im trying to become a seller
I’m 17 and I really want to sell my Chromebook I’ve had for a couple years. I got it as a Christmas gift but stopped using it a couple months after I got it. Now I have a windows laptop and do not need my Chromebook. What do u suggest I do? I do have some other questions but if you are able to respond to this one that would be great.
hi 👋🏻… i’m from COSTA rica 🇨🇷 and i have several things in my house that i want to make profit with but i don’t know if it’s too difficult to sell from here…. appreciate any help
The link posted in the description about eBay fees isn't working.
I'm downsizing . I donate a lot, but thinking of selling my more vintage items.
What is a style code??
Thank you. Do you recommend selling clothes and purses on ebay, or would you stick to pashmark? Happy thrifting
Both!
Can I open an eBay store using a cash app card without sharing my bank info?...like,attaching a bank account...I don't want to attach a bank account
How do you price the item
Great content. My issue is actually listing and I am terrified of shipping, have no idea what to charge.
You just need a scale to weigh your stuff. 💖
You can do it!
Research what it is selling for, and keep in mind what you paid. :) You can see what others charged for shipping too when you make a listing using 'sell similar'. But don't just take what they say like I did at first. I listed a purse, the listing defaulted to 2 pounds, but it was 3 pounds plus box,. Oops.
Same!

Where do you find the thank you cards I got some from eBay with the shipping supply’s kit
I make mine on VistaPrints
I have some books on ebay that are rulesets for wargaming with miniatures. I have taken photos of the inside contents on specific pages. Is there any type of copyright issues in presenting the book that way?
I don't think so... If you are just showing the condition of the book for sale
Thank you for the information. What do you know about taxes? when you buy to re-sell you pay taxes. Then when you sell Ebay charge taxes, so it is double taxation. is there a way to pass the tax to last purchaser?
ebay was great up to around 2008 for the little guy/gal to sell their unwanted stuff safely nationwide/international without risky garage sales or other headaches like risky home invasions / meeting places. Then they allowed scammer buyers to bend their refund rules, sort of wallyworld 30+ refund policy, and ebay wanted you to offer free shipping. You are not Amaz, check current Postal, fedex, UPS shipping costs then the China Sellers entered with 99 cents + items with free shipping (how, because their gov. funded) would you ask for refund that takes 2 months to return plus trip to Post Office fill out custom form and $10. shipping back just to maybe receive back your 99 cents? I even listed my items with photo of items with US Seller in background, within short time a chinese seller would list the same type of item and copy my listing word for word including photo and say us seller! As a US seller now you have to collect sales taxes and pay income tax selling your old stuff that was taxed years ago plus if you offered free shipping its taxed.
