When to eBay?

[RStar]

I sell on eBay quite often, in fact I sold a Starbucks Gift card yesterday (I don't go there at all
). My money is in my PayPal account instantly, and feedback is not recieved until after the item is recieved by the buyer. The new rules have not affected me at all (but I also have a 100% FB).

If I can make $5 clear profit, it's worth it for me. I can sell 5-10 items at $5-$10 each weekend (usually items that cost me nothing), so I can make $25- $100 each weekend, or an extra $200 month average. This can take me 4-6 hours each week including shipping. It's not making me rich, but it helps with the cash flow, and with my PayPal card I have instant access to my money at the store.

CP, as an active eBayer, I would say post the auction if you have an open eBay and payPal account. You can post the first 5 items each month free of insertion fees, and you can print the shipping documents and postage from home and have it picked up from your doorstep as well, all in a couple of easy steps. This is also something you can do while you are down taking care of that little one once he/she (I'm betting on a he ) arrives.

BTD- give it a try, I think you'll find the new rules aren't that bad.

If you guys have questions, please feel free to email me.
