I Will Never Sell On eBay Again
Just sold 7 items of vintage on eBay. Total with shipping, $421. After fees, $337. Spent $55 out of pocket to mail everything out. Now we're down to $282 of net profit. One guy had the nerve to tell me I was unreasonable for charging $10 for Priority Mail, which actually cost $19. This for an item from 1897 that I bought in the 1990s for well over $100 that he snagged from me for $67. On the other hand, one item from 1904 that I think I paid $8 for sold for $167. But since I haven't sold on eBay since 2017, I am a "new seller", even though I have been on eBay since 1998. I have to wait until the items arrive (tracking) in order to receive payments. So all of this...fees, waiting to receive payments, is a total pain. I won't sell on eBay ever again. You guys that sell on eBay, I don't know how or why you do so.
