I sold 2 things! I'd like to pat myself on the back if you all don't mind
The first one I JUST SOLD through "buy it now". The other I sold a couple days ago! I am so thrilled! And I put a couple other things up and did not use Autiva and it was 1,00000 easier, (I know some people think Auctive is easier. I may have Auctive Add) But the point is I could never have this many things up at a time. I always wondered how people did it, (I know people have way many things than me but it's a start. I think the idea is just take the damn pictures and go to "sell" and then "revise" it at least 4 times because you fucked up.)

These first shoes are such a buy. I wear size 7 and was really pissed because the 3 sets of shoes I got were 8M's and would not fit me unless I maybe put a sticky thing in them and for someone who is just getting used to wearing heals again I don't think that's such a good idea.

Anyway, just blowing my own horn...or shoe and plate. Thanks all for being patient with me. :hi:

OH and I am going to pay for the things at the thrift store right away. (long story that caused a rift here before) I also donated to a Big Cat Rescue on the ones I didn't forget to do it. :P

2. I LOVE it! I don't think I'd mind if I made 5 cents at this point. Selling
something is such a high!

3. I know. I've sold a couple of things online -
not enough to really put money in the bank, but it was definitely a kick in the butt. Keep the faith! There are those who have made fortunes from their computers. You might be the next one.

4. Congratulations!
That's great news - give yourself a big pat on the back

I'm thinking of listing some things myself so it's very good news to me that you had success with your items.

5. Do it! When I started I went to their forums and read and asked questions
These people know so much.

Also I don't know how many things you have bought but if you haven't it is a good thing to do even if they are real cheap. One of the things is you want a high score on your profile and buying things count towards this also. Just make sure you pay quickly and try to be nice. EBAY is a little fake like that but..........well if a person has a 50% approval rating it would be a hindrance to selling.

Good luck if you decide to try it!

6. congratulations...
I have been selling off items from toy collections I have collected over the years

Transformers are really hot right now especially with overseas bidders

These have been my results from the past 30 days

http://cgi6.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?MfcISAPICommand=ViewListedItems&since=30&userid=toyflashback&include=0&rows=100&sort=3&completed=1

I started off with offering two things back in December to raise some extra money for Christmas and now I am hooked

I usually start out the bidding at the original retail price and I offer a buy it now price as another option

9. sounds like they said they got them throughout the years, & decided to sell them
they probably got those great transformers at toy/hobby stores, as I don't remember toys like that in the 'mart' type stores.

11. Sorry I did not read the part that these were your own toys. I thought
you had a special supplier. But congratulations.

(I'm still jealous....:toast: )
