Very good week for me last week. I was getting worried about sales slowing down and also wanted to clear out some of my slow moving items, so I put 10 things up for auction. Of course, then I had one of my best weeks even without the auctions. :-)
Started tracking a few more stats too:
Hours Sourcing: 3
Hours Listing: 4.5
Hours Shipping: 3.5
Of the 23 items I sold last week, 14 of them were from my death pile, so I'm still working on getting it down as low as possible before garage sale season starts. But, you can also see that I'm out sourcing and finding some good stuff.
New items from recent sourcing:
Jungle Book DVD
iZUMi Bag
Petsafe Fence Hub
Patriot Media Hub
Guitar Hero Metallica
Diesel Jeans
Sony DVD VHS
Transformers
Rescue Heroes
The Diesel Jeans were an exciting sale. My girlfriend and I were looking through the discount rack at a consignment store and found them for $10! My first really good jeans find!
You can also see that some of my auctions did terribly. I'm ok with this as it clears out space for new items. It's true, I could have left them up and just waited for the right buyer to come along, but sometimes I like to clear out some old inventory.
