I finally started getting my act together and began posting stuff up for sale on Ebay. If you see that I've posted something you gave me as a present, I'm sorry. Please don't take it personally! I really need to clear out stuff I have no use for, no matter how much I may like the item. You guys all know this. I've been talking about doing it for YEARS.
It was hard for me to list some of what I put up! If you know me, then you know I love my action figures. I posted a few of them, all of which were bought by me (no gifts there!) and all are cool. So far all of what I listed action figure-wise is sealed and in their original boxes (never opened). So if you're a friend of mine that's looking for action figures and you don't want to hassle with shipping (because I am going to see you at some point and could hand them to you), then take a look at my listings and let me know.
I've got other things up that I have absolutely no confidence will sell. At all. They're just too random. I didn't even know how to price them! I think I'll start listing DVD's and books next. I've got a slew of sealed cosmetics that I need to list (already took pictures of them and everything), but that seems kind of daunting.
I hope selling on Ebay is better than it used to be. I quit selling a while back because I didn't like my feedback rating being "held hostage" by a buyer. For a while, a seller could not leave negative feedback for a buyer, even a deadbeat one. I'm hoping that's changed. I should probably look it up! I've got over 609 transactions and 100% positive feedback. Yes, I'm proud of that. <grin> Gotta be proud of SOMETHING, right?
I've already received a message through Ebay from a guy who wants me to end an auction, break up the lot and sell one of the pieces to him at a price he's told me he thinks is fair. He also told me that I put too high a price on the lot. All of this was within an hour of me posting it for sale! I told him to give me a few days and that I'd get back to him. Weird thing is, I did a search and the price he said I should be selling it for was kinda low. I priced it at what the other ones were listed for. If it sells, it sells, if it doesn't, oh well.
I've been buying way too much stuff on Ebay lately, it's time I worked the other side of the auctions again.
I think I'm going to walk down to Victoria's Secret in a bit. It's been a while and I want to buy something pretty / girly.
Placed a BevMo order to pick-up on my way home this afternoon. Yay for the 5-cent sale! I also placed another Chinese food order, like I did a few weeks ago. I don't feel like cooking, and I doubt any of my friends will want to go out if I called. It IS Tuesday after all. No one likes doing anything on Tuesdays. Either way, it looks like I'm gonna have leftovers for the rest of the week. Yes, that means I got a fuck-ton of food. They were having a special. :-)
Btw - have I said (lately) how much I hate taking the train to and from work? I had strangers sit on two sides of me yesterday. THEY WEREN'T THE ONLY EMPTY SEATS IN THE TRAIN CAR, PEOPLE! Strangers at 4:55am are creepy. In the afternoon people are rude. They push past you to get on the train, even though you were in front of them. There aren't a lot of seats and it smells. If it wasn't for the fact that I have three weeks worth of tokens to use and and when those are gone, it's still less than half what I pay for parking..........
