    Nice work Evan! I would advise newbies to NOT buy everything that they THINK will sell on ebay. You will have a huge pile of unlisted stuff sitting in a room of your house for longer than you hoped! (true life experience).

Hey it might time for a golf outing of resellers. I recently started my own CZcams channel on what sold and tips. Dang Mapquest…..definitely going to check out again.

    I've been reselling part-time for years, and I was still excited to watch your video, lol I've actually been thinking about using My Reseller Gennie. Gonna look up some CZcams videos and check it out with your code. Thanks for all you do, and have a great Thanksgiving with your beautiful family ❤

    Great job Evan! You were on point. I love seeing resellers talk about the “how to” more often. When I started out I was searching high and low for this kind of information. I would really like to hear more about how people source golf clubs. I have been finding and buying more clubs lately but often wonder if I am making the right decisions. I have sold several, but have some that are sitting in inventory. They were slow sellers to begin with so I will have to wait. Looking forward to the next video! Thanks!

    • @flippymcflipperson

      Golf clubs around here are all about persistence. Just gotta keep going. Like everything else just check your comps and sell through rates. Good luck and thanks for watching!

    I actually hate the barcode scanner. It is handy, but I get far more results with a manual search... That being said, I am the crazy man in the store talking to my phone. Yes I use the mic function to verbally input the product details into eBay. I find way more resuls and that becomes key when looking at the sell-through rate.... For me.

    • @flippymcflipperson
      @flippymcflipperson  Před 6 měsíci +1

      You're not wrong. You will definitely only find the results where the seller took the time to put the UPC in to the listing. I usually try the scanner first since it's quick. Then, if there are few results, I go the manual route. You can also find me talking to my phone instead of typing 😁

    You are one of the more helpful resellers out there, from my viewing experience. One thing I would also highly recommend to mention is double check the pricing of your comparables to see if they include shipping or not. That can make a huge difference on where you price your product, and not end up losing a bunch of money because other sellers may include shipping in their price. Other than that it was a great entry level tutorial.

    • @flippymcflipperson
      @flippymcflipperson  Před 6 měsíci

      My wife still has a full time job with excellent benefits including insurance so mine is through her. I would talk to an independent agent and they can actually shop around and see what's best for you. Congratulations on becoming a full time reseller!

      @legoboy-ox2kx Před 3 měsíci +1

      Lol, it depends on what you're doing. If you're just selling a few things here and there you usually don't have to report any income since the assumption is that you're selling personal used items that you no longer want or need, and most likely at a loss. The legal requirement for reporting is currently $20,000 and 200 or more total sales, but they've tried to lower it to $600 for a while and the IRS said they wouldn't do it. I think they're setting on 5 or 10K, but it hasn't been put into law yet. Honestly adding 1099k forms and having to track every expense and receipt is the worst part of reselling, and why I got out of it. It's just way too tedious since you're constantly sourcing and selling so there's so many different things to keep track of.
