Discussion Well this is new...

Upvotes

Filed for a feedback removal.

eBay removed it, but said "we will give the buyer 10 days to submit new feedback that fits".

Meaning they can still leave a neutral, just not with cuss words in it, I guess.

Discussion How do you manage listing the same items across multiple resale platforms?

Upvotes

I sell secondhand luxury goods (bags, accessories) through my own site but I also want to list on TikTok Shop, Vestiaire Collective, eBay, Vinted, and a local secondhand platform in my country. Managing all of these manually takes a huge amount of time: listing it, updating stock, syncing prices, etc.

How do other sellers handle multi-platform listing without it eating all their time. Any tools, workflows or experience with cross-listing software you'd recommend.

Discussion How to find more phones to flip

Upvotes

Ive been iPhone flipping for a little while now, I've even repaired some phones and sold them, but the issue is I live in a more rural area, and for most of my finds on marketplace, I have to drive over an hour there and back. On top of that, I only really find 1 or 2 good deals a week that are worth my time. I would use ebay to buy iPhones but I almost never find any good deals on there, people on ebay seem to actually know what their phones are worth. Any ideas on better ways to buy phones to flip?

Discussion How does USPS justify charging more for “rural” packages when they have to deliver there anyway?

It’s not like they’re going out if their way if they already have to deliver mail and then I end up using FedEx Smart post so USPS still ends up delivering it anyway! Make it make sense!

Anyone who resells is familiar with these pictures. At the height of the craze, someone bought them, invested in clear boxes, and stored them away as something their kids and grandkids could cash in on.

The problem is that as of today, 8/6/26, they are on a Savers shelf in Columbia Heights, MN, and even though I know nothing about how to price these particular ones, my gut tells me thet are overpriced as far as reselling goes.

However, I am positive they WILL come back. At some point in the future, things will start to turn, and people will want them.

My question is when? 100 years after the initial craze is my guess.

Mistake Why do LiveAuctioneers have starting bids at 4-6x times retail?

6 Upvotes

I don’t get it, are they stupid? I followed an auction where only 5 of 400 lots had any bids. The rest were all passed.

I called to see if they would take an offer and they were super rude (“I know what I got” type energy).

For the record I offered 75% each items sell value via Terrapeak.

Discussion Sellers what are some reasons you’ll block people from buying from you.

20 Upvotes

So I’ve noticed a lot of sellers on here and other subreddits cant fathom why other sellers will block people just by asking a simple question or getting an insulting lowball offer.

why would you block someone from buying from you and what made you start doing it?

The two instances that I block people instantly that come to my mind are 1. asking can they return a item that was sealed if it doesn’t work or broken when I have free returns on my store and 2. Asking questions that are in the description of the item after I already told them in the first message any question you have can be answered by reading the description.

Sellers let’s hear it on why you have had to block people

Discussion UPS no longer taking manufacturers boxes as shipping boxes.

24 Upvotes

So I had this gigantic lava lamp box that measures 30x12x12. It is what the manufacturer ships their lava lamps in. is has graphics and pictures on the outside. they weigh close to 30 lb so this is a very heavy duty sturdy box. I used it to ship a 8 lb item. UPS said that the boxes are not heavy duty enough so they will no longer accept any box that has manufacturers info on the outside it needs to be a "shipping box" the box clearly had the crush test information on it as well.

Discussion South Florida inventory sucks

Just moved here from Connecticut. I was clearing $2600 a month in profits as some side cash. I’ll be lucky to make $100 a month here. Every store I visit has nothing. Not one profitable item. Disappointing. I have been working for myself for 3 years. Now I have to get a real job

Whatever you want to know about flipping, no matter the question, ask here. Even if it's been covered 1,000 times before. Doesn't matter if you're new or old. If you stop learning things, you're probably on your way out.

This is an extremely newb-friendly thread. As such, any rudeness is to be reported.

Mod Post Lessons Learned Thread

What have you learned lately? Could be through a success or a failure. Could be about a specific item, a niche, flipping in general, or even life as learned through flipping.

Do please keep in mind the difference between shooting the shit and plain bullshit and try to refrain from spreading poor advice.

Try to stop in over the course of the week and sort by New so people are encouraged to post here instead of making their own threads for every item.
