I can only speak for myself, but I think there are a lot of people watching that are just like me. I think the reason we like seeing you pull the items that have sold is because of your organization. Deep down, we all aspire to keep our homes organized. I am sure there are very few of us,if any, that have thousands of items that we have to store and organize that are not our own. By watching you pull your shipping, we kind of live vicariously through you and tell ourselves well if she can be that organized with all of that and do all that you do we should be able to at least organize our own things and space. Seeing your basement gives us all hope🤣😂haha.

I don't know why some people get bothered with how others pronounce words. I watch another channel where the guy says "joory" instead of jewellery. It doesn't matter, as long as you know what the person is saying. We all have our weird ways of pronouncing some words, and I think your pronunciation of jewellery is very good. The way you speak sounds lovely, and you enunciated words very clearly, so don't worry about your accent. After all, we all have one😊.

Erphila - Kovels Erphila is a mark found on Czechoslovakian and other pottery and porcelain made after 1920. This mark was used on items imported by Ebeling & Reuss of Philadelphia, a giftware firm that was founded in 1866 and out of business sometime after 2002. The mark is a combination of the letters E and R (Ebeling & Reuss) and the first letters of the city, Phila(delphia). Erphila is one of many marks ...This is the description for Erphila pottery from the Kovels book. So the little piggy was probably made in Czechoslovakia and imported to Philadelphia.

Karen, both pronunciations of jewellery and jewelry are correct. They both are spelled differently and pronounced differently (jewellery being the Oxford English and jewelry being the US pronunciation) but both mean the same. So you’re correct in how you say it. I’m from western Canada and have always said it your way. Those Pottery Barn finds were terrific, and are going to sell amazing too! ❤

Not really interested in pulling solds from your basement or Pottery Barn. But I know you want to mix things up and keep lots of different viewers interested. Thank you for your helpful Goodwill videos and helpful information.

Not everyone can physically walk a flea market. At least thrifts have carts that help give some support. Not all fleas have the kind of merch sellers deal with. Prices can be hit or miss too. Not the only answer for finding things to resell.

@cheryldavis8776 7 күн бұрын

In my experience, garage and yard sales typically have cheaper prices than flea markets overall. People who set up at flea markets are DEALERS who generally know prices better than those folk - just your average public citizens - who set up at yard sales. And THEY are often just trying to get rid of stuff they no longer have a use for... Flea market sellers are in it for part or all of their livelihood. Big difference, IMO.

Karen, I love your channel! I have been an Ebay seller for almost 25 years and learn a lot from you. I was a full time power seller for 12 years then went to part time. Even took a few years off. You inspire me to have a fully stocked store again. How many listings do you post per day or week on average? Also do you pay for promoted listings, and if so what percent do you pay? I would LOVE to see a video of you showing your step by step process beginning with logging in your new inventory, prepping it, taking photos, listing, and putting the new inventory in its correct bin/shelf. Even if you showed this with 2 or 3 different items: 1 shelved hard good, 1 clothing item, and 1 art piece. Thanks for considering 🙏

Hi Karen! A tip for quick mental math when something is such a high percentage off it is faster to mentally calculate what you are paying not what you are saving. So if an item is $25 but 80% off you are paying 20% which means $5 is your total. For me this is always faster. Hope that makes sense!
