This is my April 2024 monthly reseller income report. I talk about what sold on Poshmark, Ebay, and Deop. The categories are high-priced, low-priced, fast-selling, and slow-selling items. I also discussed the eBay calculated shipping update that significantly boosted sales.

I really appreciate you showing your mistakes as well as your successes. Some sellers make you think everything is all roses and chocolates.

It's definitely not that. More like a rollercoster. So many ups and downs, but I love it (half of the time).

Omg the birkenstock's size reminded me of my trouble of finding shoes. I used to be a 5.5 and occasionally a 5 and was hard to find something I liked. Now I am a 6-6.5, which is easier.

Aww thanks Nancy. God blessed me with good kids. All of us pitch in to run the business. I like to ship shoes in their original box when I have it. I'll either put it in a polymailer or modify a 1092 box. Here's a tutorial on that: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/nt6TeNN8mL-wdaM.htmlsi=55_1Hr3AL8mZoTAj

In general I'd say yes. But ultimately it depends on brands. Some clothing brands and styles will sell better.

@NightOwlinNewOrleans Ай бұрын

Your videos are very helpful. I have a question. If you choose to change over to flat rate shipping, is that shipping discounted like when it is calculated?

@SandraTheMomBoss Ай бұрын

Flat rate would be a set price determined by me. Calculated is when ebay determines price and charges the same prices as postal services do at their stores. Discounted rate is determined by ebay too, but the shipping price is at the discounted rate instead of full price like calculated. I hope that answers your question.

@torresBoutique3 Ай бұрын

Hi what kind of shipping you used USPS ground advantage? Do you do flat rate or calculate?

@SandraTheMomBoss Ай бұрын

Currently I am giving buyers the discounted rate. They pay what I pay for shipping. I use brown boxes I buy from eBay when buyers choose the USPS ground advante option.

@creativeplum Ай бұрын

Thanks for all the info! …..how long do you wait till you relist your item on Ebay and/or Poshmark ? It’s my understanding that after either 60 or 90 days on Posh, even if you are sharing items consistently they will no longer show up high in the search if they are older ? 🤔

@SandraTheMomBoss Ай бұрын

I sort my items from oldest to newest. I relist the 5-7 oldest ones. Sometimes they've been listed 3 months sometimes a bit less. I delete the item completely from ebay and Poshmark and list it again using List Perfectly. This bypasses Poshmarks 60 day rule for relisting using their copy feature.

@susanarrington9371 Ай бұрын

AS FOR AS THE NEW SHIPPING OPTION...was told that when you do add that setting they would also put the shipping amount I was charged on the shipping the item which a lot do not like that...would not show up if you opt out. DId you not get any sales on your mercari store?

@SandraTheMomBoss Ай бұрын

I haven't been posting on Mercari. No sales at all in a while.

@amandabogun9597 Ай бұрын

Hi! I have a quick question. Are you saying that your sales did better when you used calculated shipping versus flat rate shipping or the other way around?

@SandraTheMomBoss Ай бұрын

This whole time I was using calculated shipping, which charged buyers a high shipping price. My sales did better when I switched to charging "ebay discounted rates" instead. That option charges buyers the discounted rate in shipping, which made my shipping prices more reasonable and competive.

@God_is_Great_1 Ай бұрын

Hey Sandra great video, I have a question. I have a great goodwill bins location tons of inventory shoes and clothes. I want to expand my reselling more for whole sale and sale to resellers. Using merci since it’s no fees and shipping is way better. Do you have any tips for me? I get overwhelmed with so much inventory. The items I find are ridiculously so many. I can’t list them all myself. Any tips would be appreciated.

@SandraTheMomBoss Ай бұрын

I think Mercari is a great option. You can also search for wholeseller Facebook groups. I'm sure there are some for resellers to connect with wholesellers.

Every time I post on Poshmark my closet gets shut down. This happens after I get a message from what I believe is a scammer, the next thing I know I'm locked out of my closet and can't post anything. It's frustrating because there's no customer service phone number to call and Poshmark never responds to my messages.
