Absolutely a series reselling with personal debt. It would help folks who had to rebuild their lives after becoming so ill during the Pandemic and having to go into 1,000’s worth of debt with the combination of illnesses and being forced to shut down a business. I’m one of them now digging out of a hole. I’m determined! Thank you!😊

I just started and I think 1 month in is okay, but between taxes,shipping, sourcing, and ebay fees. It's unbelievable how much comes out of your profits

I transitioned from clothing to collectibles which dramatically increased my profits big time. I still sell clothing as fillers but they are all high end sought after apparel. Collectible Knick knacks are cheap to ship (unless they are heavier items)and this particular area will never die out in which clothing tends to fluctuate. Plus it’s so time consuming to list clothing.

51:38 I can’t tell if you’re joking or not 😂😂😂😂😂but I do exactly this. For example, I’d have an item up for $50, I’ll receive a $10 offer; I smile and in my head I say “I feel honored to be low balled” and I counter offer with $49

You tell it like it is. No punches held back. Excellent Channel. Thank you

I started selling on eBay in '99 and it has been my "full time job" since 2003. I have used "eBay Seller" on home loan applications, which elicited more interest and respect than derision. Most people think it's pretty cool that you can pull off a living while selling crap on eBay. And like you said, most people don't really understand what a business on eBay entails, they just think that a person making a full time living off of selling stuff is a good way to make a living.

I loved when Chris ripped into that guy about the jeans lol. "That's an extremely lazy question" 😂 so true

Thank You for all your great knowledge , and I love your channel!

Chris!! I am so grateful for you!! 🙏🙏🙏 My life have moved in a positive direction DAILY with your help and knowledge. I am grateful for you!!

This guy I would trust .Some people who make videos about making money online are charlatans.I just subscribed to this guy and will give him a good listen. I had a small book stand near Times SQ ,NYC for 30 years and met ALL kinds of people .Made a living but I'm getting older now and would like to sell online.Sold a few books online already just to get a bit of practice in and did ok but I believe e bay is saturated with generic books.Or generic ANYTHING , probably. As I said ,I'll give this guy a listen.He comes across as genuine .And I know genuine ,from BS ,I spent over 30 years dealing with both!!

Yes to working on Q4 now! I only do RA (new items, which is what most people want for Christmas) and I'm bolstering my active listings as much as possible right now in preparation. It also has really helped my sales currently since there is so much new stock coming in. Last Q4 I sold so much I was down in active listings for months before I recovered back to preQ4 active listings number, so mindset is get as much listed between now and then so my profit for Q4 this year will be crazy.

So much great info! Thanks so much!

I spent 2 hours at a thrift once a week Then I spend 2 hours listing plus photos I make 100.00 a week

Thank you so much Chris!! 🙏🙏 Such great information!!

Yeeessssssss Please start a series on reselling with personal debt! I think the amount of people that you can help with such a series would be through the roof! ESPECIALLY because people are literally going into debt RIGHT NOW because of inflation! WOW That would be an excellent series YES YES YES!!

Great breakdown I love your stream

I'm just now crossing the barrier of 100/day profit, super excited about it. If I stay focused and don't get comfortable I think I can solidify and double it in the next four weeks. I'd also be pretty stoked to get 100 feedback at 100% here soon. Thanks for the gems, Chris. Wish me luck! Big goals only.

I've listened to three of your videos today - thank you. Maybe I decided to actually follow you because of your hat. Best beer!

I love your honesty and work ethics!

I'm going through the changes now I lost weight eating better I just started working out and broke some habits that were eating my time. I've more than doubled my weekly listings and I'm picking up the daily habit of listing 5 a day besides my already habit of posting on weekends I also changed work shift to help. I'm checking fall through rates more on items to make sure I picked items that sell and finding new categories suppliers. I like items that are multi-lot, hot items and ones with a good chunk gain per item. I also lot up older items to move on and keep it fresh more. And so far so good my sales are not great vs number of items however newer ones are having better results and I recognize many of my past mistakes and im getting more focused and getting quicker at listing and seven finding good items. I used a rack system now switching and adding box cube storage. I actually built inventory over a year plus when my job got intrusive after covid eating up my time I should have quit. Now that I have more time I will switch to part time or just selling again if need be. I still don't see how you can list so much so fast but I've more than doubled my speed and it's still getting easier. Great stuff thanks.

I've been out of the game for a couple of years, even my podcast was on hold. My eBay is slowly moving (emphasis on slowly), but I'm following your advice on posting 1-5 per day, not spending any personal money until I sell what I already have, which I plan to share on other platforms. Thank you for the motivation & inspiration!

When I worked for companies I sought out the most successful. It makes sense to surround yourself with successful people.

I JUST SUBSCRIBED TODAY I LOVE YOUR VIDEOS

The learning is a part of the business.

I usually sell most things fast within a week to a month. If it takes to long I put the stuff in my space in antique mall

I recently graduated the eBay protrader programme & later became a focused seller, the category manager at eBay HQ told me that relisting (via sell similar) is important on stagnant listings. - eBay categorise stagnant listings as over 3 months old with no sales history! Worth noting as this changed my perspective on the whole delist relist thing which I assumed was pointless for a long time.

OMG I got so called out with "i have to walk to the post office because I might get in a car accident" bahaha To be fair, I almost DID get into one last week and I also almost got assulted at the same scene and it was VERY traumatic. I so just LOL'd when chris said that though.... time to buck up I guess.... Ive processed it a bit and Ill just have to get back on the horse!!! :P

Love the Russian River Brewing hat! I have the same one and wear it religiously.

Thank you for sharing this . I have a really decent job and have a lot of extra time in my hands ! I just started EBay and I find it so fun so far !! From searching for stuff to sell to taking photographs and listing ! I would love to make extra money but I don’t expect much in return .

The Linda Model...A fast nickel is better than a slow dime. I agree!

Great advice! The average/casual reseller is losing money. Every time you buy something to resell you are gambling that it will sell for more than you paid for it. Good luck!

I’d like to hear more about how you track your COGS in one monthly average rather than breaking it down item by item. Do you have a video about it you can point me to?

hi CHRIS,courier delivery costs have doubled here in australia,plus 12% ebay fees & ebay promoted listing fees that they suggest a ad rate of up to 10%-so makes it very hard to make a decent profit,i sell a item for $35 then are charged $20-$30 for courier costs & then ebay take there fees aswell,just not very fair,best wishes to you & family.

If ideal inventory is to post 30 a day in order to get traffic, then how on earth does a small seller sell 30 items if they only have 3 to 500 items in their store. I’m not buying anymore until I can figure this out. Or is this something I would learn on your Patreon?

I love your videos. so thankful that you are willing to share your knowledge. Ive learned so much. I was wondering if you are quarantining your clothes for a period of time? Im near LA and im a bit concerned about the current pox being on clothes and bringing it home. I put them in a bag and put them in the trunk. Are you doing anything different?

This IS my side gig, I basically get my stuff for free or cheap.

Due to being disabled and disability income limits on self emplolyed being a lot less than allowed for working part time as an employee I can only open my eBay store for sales one to two days a month. Oddly, even with that I manage $100 a day profit during that short period more or less. Kind of stinks because I need to sell almost all my personal belongings due to having had to sell my house waiting 27 months to get disability and I can't do so without fear of losing my disability income if the government refuses to recognize personal property sales as such.

Will the vintage shirt boxes still be on your website? I plan to buy it in the next 2 weeks

A newbie here. What is the best way to get organized to get started? Not sure yet how all this is going to work but have listed 16 items to start with and adding more daily. . Looking forward to my first sale!

oh yeah those INI's . No matter what you pursue they'll follow you, if you don't, like you said, have systems in place to block them out.

Please let me know when to auction or when to buy now. I have started to sell ladies clothing and some childrens. Usually high street brands Zara gap etc. never know what to list on what platform. Thankyou

@41:12 lol that's funny I had a yardsale .25 cent & .50 cent sell out all my old invatory of random merchandise. Also thank you for @ 43:00 I had the health care question thank you it was very very helpful!

Health Insurance Marketplace, actually the less money you make the cheaper the insurance is.

Totally wrong on end and sell similar. Whenever my store gets slow , I will mass end and sell similar and it re ignites sales immediately. It takes less than a minute to end and sell similar hundreds of items at once

Workers compensation is important. Your employees could get hurt and you will get sued if you don't protect yourself.

Only thing stopping me from making more money is eBay only letting me have 5k listing lol. $300+ a day atm only issue I have is I'm in a town of 2k. So KZfaqrs can't help me on sourcing items.

I started an eBay page and have been limited to $700 a month with only 20 posted items. I want to know how to get out of it?

I don’t understand tax. I’m a beginner selling nothing yet but trying. I won’t make much this year. Do I charge customer tax and pay on my eBay income?

Do you share to social media? Is that necessary?

I've JUST somehow found myself able to thank lowballers hahaha. Trying to keep your advice in mind to keep emotion out of the business, and those crappy offers can get a LOT of emotion out of me.

I have no problem letting my listing go. I am just not getting any sales.

I'm seasonal and I prepare all year

I found your channel few days ago and I would like to thank you for all your work. What you give to us is priceless. I’ve already learned so much. I started reselling few months ago and I’m passionate about it. I have a question. I have 2 ebay accounts. One with 1k positive feedback I had for years. I have set up new ebay account. My plan was to slowly go to the other account but for now list on both. would you stick to one asap and stop immediately on the old one? I have more benefits on the old one. Thank you

My Wife died from cancer. We did ebay for a year. I have basic knowledge but this is a side gig, stop gap. Anyway I appreciate the logical knowledge. I decided today to post shorts of ebay listing. I am desperate and sad Such is life

What do you mean by "if they let me back on Ebay"?

Where is the custom sku field in eBay app?

Awesome

Donating blood!! 😂

Hi Chris and comment people - do you price where you want to sell or do you price up to leave room for sales, coupons and lowball offers? Thinking of pricing at the lowest lowball Id accept to make $10 profit on each item but I feel the lowballs will hit a new low where I can't maintain the profit margins

For me it’s the sourcing issues.

Any tax advantage of donating it.?

Ok how about starting a eBay store

What is ASP new resellers dont know these shortened terms

How/Why did you get banned from Ebay?

New here, why did he lose his ebay account?

🔥🔥🔥

Donating blood 😂🤣😂🤣😂

I wish I could shop for you but I am all the way in WA

I don’t have a store yet.🙂

Love this content! Can someone in the community help me out? When I check Tech's ebay store 'sold listings' I'm not seeing that many sold per day, I'm thinking this can't be accurate, please help me understand why. Thanks!

I have sold £1,450 in my first month I work on a minimum double my money sales

Is that 100$ a day profit after taxes?

How can I participate in these live Q&A’s?

As a disabled senior citizen, eBay seems to be the best way for me bring in additional income. My issue is lung disease so a9to 5 doesn’t work for me. Any advise for me and a small store?

I just tested delist relist as I was watching this video and sold 3 out of 10. Is that a good return on time?

i watched the whole video and i hoped to learn why ebay took you off.

I need help getting over the hump but I don't think I can afford the $35 a month. I currently have 380 items for sale but NOT making $100 profit per day. What should I do?

How to deal with eBay’s insane suspension system

Great video, as always, but we want to see your helper in the video's, not just her voice.

Sell clothes is the way to go Because otherwise you going to get screwed I started a ebay 2 months ago and I never mad a sale and i had to pay money to list stuff every offer i get is a scam after I Except the offer they sent me a letter with their phone number telling me to call them i sell vintage Antiques and it's not working at all

Good video. Can someone please enlighten me on what ASP is?

I disagree about ending and selling similar. Of course you still need to list fresh items daily but you also should be ending and selling similar daily as well. If you let your items chill for 30 days and then automatically get renewed you are ngmi imo.

This may be a really dumb question, but does "free returns" mean that I would pay the shipping cost for the customer to return the item?

Dependes how much times you use. I am making $100 a day using just 2/3 hours a day. It was originally a hobbie and now is a side business. I work part time too. I do have plenty of time for myself. Making $100 a day using all day is not so great unless you strugle to get a job.

Hello chris.why did ebay kick you off from selling.

I'm a brand new reseller with lol like 5 items sold. Is your membership for me?

I do nothing but auctions! 🤑🤑🤑🤑🤑

Chris should I leave feedback for all my buyers who leave me feedback?

I didn’t finish. You just explain it in the most melloncally grey way. That’s you. Most people sell items they are passionate about. Antiques, mid century collectibles. Antique tools. You might feel that way but unless you walk in another persons shoes…

Instead of going to church I'm going to list? Sounds like the quickest way to a low quality life to me. 😂😂I actually make very good money through running a consultancy but I also sell on ebay for a hobby. I have learned so much about my specialty (books) over the years and have sold some for very good money. What I make will never match my business earnings but there's an educational element to selling that's really stimulating.

Omg! I am a couponer and I’m a reseller lol 😅

I dont even earn $1.00 a day!! NO sales for 3 weeks!!!!!!!

How long do you think it takes a new Reseller to get to $100/day?

Watching resellers online doesn't count. 😃😒

I’m so confused. This lady sells items at an ASP of 15.00, her cost is .50 cents, and she profits 4.00 dollars? What the heck is that?

You get paid for donating blood in the U.S.? Wow!

EBay sucks

Dang this kinda discouraging
