Popular Post brickvoyeur Posted December 7, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted December 7, 2022 (edited) Quote I'll read the Nightmare Before Christmas story this year, kids. Twas the night before Clearance And all through the aisle Steamrollers were packed Into my cart like a pile Exo Suits were hung In the storage with care Knowing that in a decade They still will be there Sergeant Jyn Erso was nestled Deep under my bed With terrible proportions And a face that looks dead Wonder woman in her armor And cheetah in her cap The lasso of truth will tell you That this set is pure crap When out on my doorstep A noise shook me awake ShopJustice still delivering Olaf Flat as a pancake Faster shipping than FedEx The turds as they came I cried and I pouted As I called them by name "Now, Dots! now, Mario! Now Lego Movie 1 and 2! On, Raiders! on, Mighty Dinos! On, Takodana and constractables too! To the depths of the dumpster! Stacked 50 feet tall Now throw away! throw away! throw away all!" Each year I make efforts To donate a bit more But Toys for tots sends a bill For returning them to my door Since I can't give them away I'll dig a big pit It's the final solution To get rid of this sh!t I shook as I laughed At the thought of relieving this pain It was nearly 3am So I looked quite insane As I poured the kerosene I cheered with delight "I'll light you on fire, So you're out of my sight" Edited December 7, 2022 by brickvoyeur 15 18 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There was a "earn 6% ebay bucks on everything you sell promo" 2 weeks ago (or was it 4%, not sure). Might have been that? I got the same in my overview just now, unfortunately not as much as you did by a few orders of magnitude.

zskid00 Posted September 30, 2016 Share Posted September 30, 2016 I was too busy to get much listed during the promotion but I did earn $57. I would like to see more offers like this from eBay. The "hot items" promo last Nov-Dec was also pretty solid. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The eBay Bucks feels like play money to blow. Even so I can resist, am looking for the best target to reinvest that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest TabbyBoy Posted October 2, 2016 Share Posted October 2, 2016 Parted out Dr Who & Mystery Machines sets (in slightly damaged boxes not good enough to sell on eBay) for £68 after fees and P&P - £28 profit. Considering an offer for 10 Haunted Houses (2 per factory box) for £2,750 cash. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
justapilgrim Posted October 2, 2016 Share Posted October 2, 2016 my Amazon undercutting was "undercutting most of you", I rarely go for lowest price as it usually sells and money is left on the table Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
donbee Posted October 2, 2016 Share Posted October 2, 2016 Yeah. I think under-cutting is primarily a newb mistake. I undercutted a lot when I first start selling on BL. But I soon realized that people were buying listings more expensive than mine, despite my low prices. Undercutting can have its place in certain situations. But as a strategy, it's incredibly flawed.

For some that are inexperienced, what is the reasoning behind someone picking more expensive listings? Reasons I can think of 1. Feedback level 2 Shipping speed 3. Better looking pictures??? 4. Better placement on Ebay's search list Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
