Is it better to sell a roll of pennies or split them up?
I want to sell a growing computer. Shipping is going to kill me right?
Great video, excellent breakdown, I learned a lot with this video! Thanx!
I'm a total beginner at this. I'm in the fortunate position where I can receive certain items at a very very low cost. I don't know if I should try to sell to people who intend selling it themselves or try to sell it myself and see how it goes. The cheapest items I can get are things like gorilla glue and other good brands. Also command items for hanging pictures. And other things of that type but other items are available. Please can anyone advise me of my best move. Or if anyone is interested in buying cheap items. Thanks
Great video.. If you have any time to read my other comment I'd really appreciate it. Any advice from yourself would be greatly appreciated as I put much value in content of your channel. 🤞
Now this is what a great "How To" video should look like. Clear and concise with no rambling or useless information. Thanks for the advice.
Totally agree with you, GREAT VIDEO! Thank you @Honest Finance
I agree 100%! When I look for a "How To" video, I'm not looking for a potential You Tube star, just instructions with no distractions. This guy is excellent!
No blinking either
I couldn’t keep my eyes open that long even as I tried so hard
Could use a few blinks
This guy blinks only when you blink
Bil Buritto lol
Great job.
Drugs are wonderful.
Bwahaha
Underrated
*taking a look at the comments, expecting to see people fighting over Buy It Now versus Auction*
*sees everyone talking about whether or not the guy blinks*
WAT
😂
@@theooogirl3495 fr!!
Linda Munseywetuo had us in the first half
I came for the same thing lol. Buy it now brings in way more money at least for sports cards. Auction usually brings from 20-50% of what you could get with BIN

Thank you!!
You forgot 6:46 - He blinks.
you forgot when he blinks
I won the staring contest.
Danny V impossible
Impossible, he's the king 😆
Some say he’s still staring into the camera to this day
I lost he dont blink
Omg yea.... he doesnt even blink through the entire sentence 😳
His eyes do not blink.
;)
My eyes dried out trying to keep my eyes open as long as he did. 🙈
I can’t find a blink either. Now you guys messed up my groove cuz I’m wondering if I’m blinking. Oh well
As you can see they did a lot of cutting and pasting of this episode...they cut out the blinks....lmao
I saw this with 1 minutes left, could only watch his dead eyes from then on, dont even know what he said
This guy is still liking comments a year later
Very true. I go through all my comments every day to see if I can help with anything
Nvr seen that From paid youtubers
@@HonestFinance what's the best or most profitable thing to sell on eBay
Electronics are always easy to sell
I think it's great. I've been on some that are only 2 months old and had a question and they never answer, so I like the fact the pays attention to his viewers...Thanks so much.
So I’m not a new seller (I started selling in 2006) however I haven’t been diligent lately. I owned a consignment shop in 2010 and when I closed it...I had A TON of items left. My best friend asked me what I was going to do with it. I told her I’m going to list everything on eBay for 0.99 each. She said “you are going to make a killing!” Well I let my emotions get the best of me and I didn’t do that. So now my house is over run with stuff and I hate it. So last night I broke down what I need to list daily/weekly into doable size pieces. I ended all I had currently listed and relisted all but my painted pieces for $1. I have 40 active listings and 6 already have bids after just 13 hours!!!
I’m grateful I found your video which reignited me. I’m looking forward to decluttering and being coming financially free!
I FOUND IT!!!! He blinks at 6:46 😂😂
Omegalul
Thanks I can sleep peacefully tonight knowing he blinked.

Lambo Rider I had to start the video all over cuz of you lol, I got distracted by the comments, funny 😁
Lambo Rider now I’m staring at this guys eyes😕
This guy is sharp, easy to listen to and knows his shit!!! Really enjoyed his knowledge and delivery of it!!!
Thanks!! My channel is mostly on personal finance, but I figured I’d share some ebay knowledge so you can be more successful with them
is he?
Your presence is amazing. You have a high clarity, straight to the point communication and clear intentions. You're keeping the tone just at the right volume without trying so hard to be energetic and faking charisma.
I learned so much from the video and it successfully grabbed my attention enough to watch it one sitting without getting bored. I must say, you go straight to my Top 10 CZcamsrs list.
Thank you for being a great teacher and sharing the high quality info!
Hey thank you very much. I really appreciate it
Thank you for the first non-blabbering video about eBay that I’ve seen. You’re literally the first one that has clarified shipping for me and not made me even more confused.
Thanks. I appreciate your comment :)
I have never sold anything on eBay, and this is the most comprehensive guide I have come across! Gave me confidence, solid information, and many, many good answers on things I had no idea about. Thank you Mr. Finance Guy!
No problem. Glad it helped :)
As a buyer, I prefer the buy it now option. I used to sell stuff in the past and I did buy it now mostly. It was handmade jewelry for Christmas and made about 5K. I did do some auction’s on stuff that I didn’t care about and was very surprised when I got over $50 for an old printer ink cartridge that was still new in the packaging.
This guy is honest.. And blink less. Great personality.
I haven't sold on Ebay for almost 10 years and this was a great refresher. Your humble approach to this and how you attract subscribers is awesome. I gave it a thumbs up and a sub! Thanks Jason
Glad to hear your getting back into reselling
I appreciate that you use words like “that really sucks” or “you’ll get screwed” because it makes you seem more like a “regular person” than some fancy business man who uses language we don’t understand
That’s how I talk ;)
You are so right. I be saying the same thing when i hear some fancy professional explain a business. I be like it'll be much nicer if you can explain in simple terms instead of using all of these alien /advance words that just doesn't connect with me or my brain cells ! lol
i hate evil fancy capitalist pig business men who make how to videos then who tie you to the red hot stove and shove cacti sideways into all ur orifices all night long and don't even play you dark side of the moon to make u a better person maaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaan.. don't u?
Hi, Jason. My husband just retired and we are going to start listing items for sale on EBay and Etsy. Your video is the single most useful information we have found so far. Definitely liked and subscribed!
Thank you! I’m so glad my experience with eBay has been able to help so many people. Welcome to the channel!! It’s mainly focused on topics that’ll give more value to your life and wallet 😎
Great video! Very informative. You answered all the main questions I had about selling on eBay, and all without lame and distracting background music and long intros. Thank you!
This is an EXCELLENT lecture. You are a great help. I've watched several videos, most of them by jokers that can't stay on topic or finish their thoughts and take 3 times as long to inadequately explain that which you made coherent and concise. Thank you a bunch.
Wow! You are such a good talker: concise and clear, no BS. I actually learned plenty in 12 minutes , thank you.
You’re very welcome
Yes he doesn't blink either ..🤣
When you hadn’t even realized he didn’t blink because you were busy taking in all of the useful information.
exactly lol. sometimes the comments ruin it for me
I'll second that ,he knows when your slipping by saying " I NEED YOU TO PAY ATTENTION!" Brilliant 👌
That's so true tho
Thank you Jason, I just watched your video (28 June 2020). I found it was simplified to grasp the basics and informative. I felt overwhelmed to start selling on eBay. I want to sell pre-owned jewellery and clothes to make a little income.
New at this too but something I noticed this week taking my kid to work in am those recycling bins out at curbside are full of shipping materials and Amazon boxes are perfect, you can use amazon boxes but remove the shipping info and your saving it from hitting the landfill!
That totally works. Thanks
Jason Butler's "How to sell on eBay for Beginners," is one of the most professional and content rich videos I've viewed on You Tube. It will be the best 13 minutes of your time well spent!
Jason cuts to the chase. He gets right to the point. Watch, listen, and take notes. He won't waste you time. Totally authentic. Continued success Jason!
Thank you so very much!!
You mention “no reserve”, I have no idea what that means. I’ve never tried to sell anything on EBAY.
@mkstringsz Reserve is a minimum purchase price set by lister
I am exploring selling on ebay. For someone who knows ZERO about it, this video was pure gold! Thanks so much, Jason! I have subscribed to your channel based on this one video alone. It's great.
Thank you very much. I’m glad I could help
Not a THING wrong with this guy. He speaks clearly, simply and fast enough but not too fast. He compartmentalizes each detail and give NO extraneous info. I saved it so I can listen again and take notes, but this first time I just wanted to skim through all details. GREAT guy, VERY helpful.
Hey thank you very much . I really appreciate it
Thank you very much for this video. Clear and straightforward. You didn't try to sell me anything no mentoring programs no courses no products. That gives so much more value to your information, as far as I view it. Will definitely watch more videos and subscribe. Best of luck with however you're trying to make money!
I sold you on ebay ;) Thanks for the comment
This vid should be mandatory for all eBay sellers, great stuff, very informative.
Thanks :)
Jason: This is the first video I'm watching of yours and I can't leave this page without telling you a few things that stood out to me. You come across to me as a pretty smart and attractive dude who knows what he's doing. In my opinion, your eyebrows are really nice (lol,) your hair is clean cut, and you speak really well. I love your ability to edit yourself and speak concisely. The tone of your voice and pace in which you speak is really nicely too. I look forward to seeing the other content you have out here... It makes so much sense after you say it!
Absolutely loved your video, no distractions and straight to the information, thank you for that.
I have been selling as a hobby a little over a year but didn’t work at it more until the past few months. I do pretty much everything you mentioned here. I love .99 cent auctions it freaks most sellers out because there’s risk. My 60 day totals were over $1500 gross last week. I have 144 reviews now and 100% positive and it’s been so worth it to print off a note like you mentioned at the end. This by no means is anything more than a hobby and to fuel my own love to thrift but eventually I want to actually get into higher ticket items and make some extra cash even if only $500 net a month. That would fund a vacation in one year. I love selling on eBay and it’s been self taught learning from mistakes and watching CZcams videos like these. Thanks for sharing!
Glad it helped. I had to learn the hard way too
I want to get into selling on eBay, and I was wondering what kinds of items work best for you.
@@noviceboards4451 well like he said do your research. Items you sell is often a matter of luck. Do your research and try to corner the market. The item you sell should be the best deal at the best price. Good luck!
@@jeffkwak2190 im gonna try it as a side hustle and hopefully it can replace my pt job while i go to school!
@@jeffkwak2190 how long did it take you to make your first sale and do i need a paypal account?
Wow Super powerful engagement. Comments also, are very informative & various points to ponder. I was a very strong buyer in eBay and was only ripped off once in the late 90s. I'll be watching more of your videos. I especially l appreciate the way you repeat now pay attention. That is a huge help after watching a lot of other videos that are not so clear cut. Thank you!
Thanks. I forgot that I do the “pay attention” thing. I’ll have to do it more in my videos
Really appreciated your advice on getting started on eBay.
Little nervous about doing business on eBay, your video is very helpful
Thank you.
from Missouri
You’re voice is actually so calming , like I could fall asleep to this 😂😂
This seems to be one of the BEST eBay video how-to's I've ever seen!
INCREDIBLY HIGH VALUE CONTENT! and OVER-DELIVERY! Excellent.
Thanks. I subbed, hit the bell and like.
Thank you for the comment and welcome to the channel!
Thank you for your advice! I’m new eBay reseller and I’m learning a lot and I even start making videos so I can get advice from other eBay sellers! Once again excellent video thank you!
You’re welcome
Perfect. Clear, concise, appealing, convincing, and helpful argument. Thanks a lot I'm definitely going to learn a lot from you.
I felt the authenticity in this video. Thank you for sharing! This was very helpful :)
Commented more than half-way through but honestly got amazing reminders towards the end I forgot about! Thanks so much, will definitely subscribe!!
if u ask him to crouch over ur face for sure he'll oblige.. where do you live?
This was great for someone starting new. Hope you put out more content.
Great advice and tips. Much appreciated! I have a ton of unused and now retired crafting stamps that I am considering selling on Ebay.
Hi! I'm new to selling on Ebay and I really enjoyed your video. I love how you weren't begging us to subscribe or thumbs up. You were very informative, I'm going to use your advice, btw I did thumbs up and subscribe. I look forward to watching and learning more.
Welcome to the channel! It’s mostly personal finance videos and reviews, so I apologize if you’re only looking for ebay videos (but I do have a few)
Let me know how your selling goes. Everybody’s gotta start at the beginning :)
@TheRealartist1963 so where do you sell now?
Paypal, it's money from buyer bank that goes to your bank account, or that what i think, i watching this because i wanna sell on ebay for first time
@TheRealartist1963 Don't know if you still follow this comment and or get replies still. I hope you get this "thanks", for the headaches you probably saved me. I was going to sell some (a lot of) collectibles on ebay, now I don't think I will. I also was wondering if you found another way to sell. Thanks again.
I got a 4 minute ad about selling on eBay and what I should sell.
I didn't realise it was an ad until it ended.
That’s funny. Was it good ?

Great job! You stayed completely on point & focused (unlike many youtubers).
Thank you!! This was very helpful and I appreciate that you took time to make this to help beginners, like me!! It can be a confusing arena if you want to sell miscellaneous items without losing money (for the most part). Some of this is common sense but some of it I hadn’t thought of that will help me with the bigger ticket items. Again, thank you for your time!!!
You are so welcome!!
You didn’t confuse me like other tutorial videos out there. Lol! Simple, easy to follow and very informative. Thank you!
Thank you very much!
Prefer to BUY IT NOW! Seen way to many people gets shortchanged on nice items that got little bids and had to sell way below value! On PCs, higher priced items, then an Auction can prove time worthy!
I agree, especially if it's not a super popular item. For instance I have my old Mercedes radio. It takes time for someone to buy it. I'd rather lose the 10$ by undercutting the other radio sellers and do the buy it now. I don't want to sit on it for 6 months.
Doing the research right now. Need to break down each sections and understand each part. Thanks for the outline to work from.
Hey Jason, thanks so much for your video. I just came across it as Im wanting to sell some items for the holidays. really appreciate your info. gave me a lot to consider.
Glad it helped! Good luck w the new account
I almost comment never but Jayson u forced me to write that u r best. Really... u don’t know how much I appreciate ur this video. This is ur first video I watched on CZcams. The only thing I loved is ur honesty. I feel it.. wish you lot of success....
Thank you very much
I am in S.L.C., Ut. as well! I wish that you would do more "how to ebay" for beginners. You are a great speaker.:)
Thanks for the transparency I use youtube and although classic I’m new to this and willing to learn.
Thanks Jason, I love your message. Honest finance is a beautiful name
Jason, you da bomb man! First video of yours that I've watched and I am seriously impressed - clear & concise and very well put together. Am going to apply that info today on my listings, thank you Sir - Subscribed!! 💪🏼💥⚡️🔥👍🏼
Thank you!! Welcome to the channel! I’m not all about ebay, but some of my videos should help you out.
Simple, clear and helpful. Exactly what one wants from these types of vids
Thank you!!
I was thinking about selling a phone on ebay, but after watching this I can't be bothered. Excellent presentation though (and I gave it a like), concise and full of factual info without wasting my time telling me where you're from, what the weather's like and how good the coffee tastes. Thanks.
Now I'm convinced I can do this! Simple, clear, and straight to the point... thank you!
You’re welcome. Good luck!!
Great video, I have just in the last month started selling on eBay and you have givin me some great tips on things I have not thought about previously. 👍

Lol
1999?
Man.. I miss those days. The deals to be found were incredible!.
If your in northern midwest; check out k-bid. Awesome auction site. I just got an almost brand new riding lawn mower for 100 bucks! Just cuz the battery was dead on it. 😆
Michael Tayon damn old man
I am just getting started and appreciate your frankness. I have quite a number of die cast model cars in 1/18 scale that had been collected by my late husband. They are in good condition; some are in original boxes and others have display cases.
Good luck!! It’s really not hard to start
Our community group enjoyed watching your video and talking about how we might use eBay
I've been selling on eBay for nearly 20 years. Mostly books and at a fixed price. I'm going to give the dollar try when I list again. Thanks for the info!
Hi Linda, I’m about to selling on eBay for the first time. How did the dollar bus turn out for u?
I have opened youtube to watch fail compilations but I don't know why I clicked this video and now I decided to sell stuff on ebay. If I ever had a lecturer like you, I would listen to him for hours and hours without loosing any attention. well, hello ebay

Very honest, informative video - thanks!
You’re welcome!
can't concentrate when someone is staring at my soul
Great instructional video, to the point, very informational, and the video is not about You! (You are truly trying to HELP people!) Thank You
Thank You! this is the best 'how to' video I've found for selling on Ebay.
You’re very welcome. I’m glad it helped ;)
Thank you for this excellent advice! It is so clear, concise, and extremely helpful! I took notes on each section. ^_^
You’re so welcome :)
One important detail you didn't mention is to ensure you scan the UPC code for DVD's and video games and the ISBN number for books as listings that have this code included in the item specifics get priority over listings that don't have it scanned in, so one way to ensure your listings get priority over other listings in make sure you have the UPC or ISBN code included
Thank you so much Jason, fantastic video! I’m going to do everything you said and come back-tell you how well it worked!
Thanks for watching. Let me know if any of the advice helps :)
I’m new start selling on eBay and thank you for this ❤️
I've never sold on Ebay. Watching your video has relieved some of the fear of getting started for me. Very informative, with good insights and great tips, presented clearly and concisely. Thank you.
You’re welcome! Good luck ;)
Pretty helpful video thanks well deserved thumbs up👍
Thank you
Great tip about batch selling items. I’ve wanted to sell some old uni books for a while but didn’t know where to start.
Batching helps tremendously :)
I remember this video the not blinking guy i saw it before 2 years now it's my recommends again !
