I finally did it!


my wife finally convinced me to try and sell something on Ebay. I listed one item and I am proud to say I have 4 watchers and 1 bidder so far! I am pretty fucking excited about it too. If it goes well I will list some other shit I have. I never knew how cool it was. I have been a buyer for years. I should have tried selling shit a looooooooooong time ago.

i probably bought in upwards of a hundred things on ebay back in the mid 90s before my roomate was like, "you should try sellin as much shit as you've bought." probably sold more shit since then than i've bought. people will by just about anything on there.

so what was the first item, voodoo?

I've never sold. These posts are beginning to convince me of otherwise.

yeah, if you're ready to part with some of your possessions, it's a great way to go.
my most recent record sale netted over $800, and that was for less than 60 records.

here it is. If the sale goes off without a hitch, I'm going to sell a SD mechanics shirt and my DKM mechanics jacket ( I hope that one pulls in a pretty penny)

I used to buy and sale quite a bit on ebay....made some good money at times.I auctioned off some old HC t-shirts about 6 years ago,and I couldn't beleive how much I got for them....one shirt went for $71.
I just sold a Hank III picture disc that I paid $12 for,it went for $49.

Good luck with your auctions,and let us know when you post up some more stuff

They take a tiny percentage of the final sale price. It's so little as to be barely noticed.

...but there's also a listing fee and the percentage that PayPal takes on the money transfer.

depending on the value of what you're selling, you definitely need to consider the fees.

in my opinion, selling a single $4 record isn't worth the time or the money you'll net. i really won't fuck with selling on ebay unless i have a lot of stuff to get rid of or a big-ticket item. the 'sell an item' form is a LOT longer than it used to be.

Give it a shot bro! I just threw up a brand new Social D button up shirt with the 32 Ford on the back, hoping it does alright. It is addictive!
