I NEEDED A DAY LIKE THIS.... plus a sneak peak at my actual job!!
Рет қаралды 9,319
Күн бұрынMy goal today was to find items that were quick, easy and effortless is list. I need to make listing as attractive as possible as my ebay motivation is low at the moment
The charity shops delivered.
I have a cool vinted snipe to show you... and I'll give you a sneak peak into my actual job.
As always I'll show you what's been selling on ebay for profit.

Loving the fact that you are building up a vintage toy collection while out sourcing to sell as well. I do the same but my thing is vintage Action Man and Star Wars. Adds a further dimension of fun and excitement to it all.

I tried something last night that I'd seen on another video. I ended all of my listings (131 at the time) then posted them all again as sell similar so every item gets a new item number and apparently a 'new item boost'. Within a few hours, I'd sold 7 things, some of which were my more expensive and niche items, and some that had been sitting around for months. You have to be aware of not going over your free monthly listings, but it's worth trying, I also got a bunch of offers through.

hate modern urban architecture its creepy, austere and trying to be 70s brutalist but failing, far better days when we had seaside shelters with seating so us oldies could get out of the wind and take a rest and eat a sandwich on our trips to the coast, don't even have bus shelters in most towns and when they do there is no wind protection and no seating, its like the councils just want us to all die and clear off, and public loos are ugly filthy and never cleaned
