What I'd like to share with you is why I started selling, how I got started, and why I sell the items I sell.
I'm a stay at home Mom and I love it. We have a 2 year old and he's adorable. I want to bring in extra income for our family. You know the whole virtuous woman thing from the Bible? I didn't want to leave my son with someone else by going out to work, I waited a long time to have him. So far I've been blessed and haven't had to leave him, so here I am. I enjoy everyday with him. I sit at my computer listing items, answering questions, preparing packages for shipping and he comes over, takes my hand and we dance together to his favorite Wiggle tune on his DVD. You can't beat that!!!!!!
I fell in to selling online back in December 2006. I was buying Wiggles stuff on ebay for my son. I saw all the things people were selling. So I bought a new item for less than $1, I thought it was cute, and turned around and sold it on ebay for almost $40.00. Definitely blessed for a first timer. It just happened to be right before Christmas and one of those hard to find items. I was in shock and bitten by the bug. I've been selling ever since. Not with the profit margin of that one item, but doing well enough. I've had a couple other things I've sold that did quite well. I decided in the beginning, if it isn't something I would want to keep or give to someone in my family, that is, if I couldn't sell it, I wouldn't buy it. This way I never really lose the money.
I tried selling women's intimate apparel, you know, thongs, g-thongs, baby dolls, briefs, bikini panties, maternity panties, and shapers but there are so many people selling things like that online I didn't do too well, so I went back to what I started selling in the first place. Things I liked, my niece likes, my son likes. You know things anyone would want for a good price if they could find it.
Items I sell are things my son, my husband, my niece, my sister, my mom, my brothers, or my nephews like. In fact, sometimes I lose an item to them. Right now I have Koala Brothers items, Monopoly novelties, Scrabble novelties, lots of kids clothes, lots of princess stuff and a few finds I get around town I think are just interesting. I add more items as quickly as I can and I try to keep the list up to date so new items and sold out items are accurate.
Well I guess this explains alot about me and why I'm doing what I'm doing. I'm learning everyday from listing to shipping to what to sell and what not to sell. It's fun and exciting. It keeps me busy and brings in extra income but most of all I get to be here for my son and watch all the new things he learns and does everyday. I also get to pass on all the great deals and finds to my ebay counterparts so the benefits are endless.
So if you're not busy right now stop and shop at my store:
www.flynnagainandagain.com
and the cool thing is everything is in one place. You can pay through Paypal or with a money order and I ship to the address you give me and remember all my items are on ebay. The store name is just a central location to make it easier for shoppers to look at everything at once.
I try to keep my 100% so if you have any questions or concerns please let me know and we can work it out. I take pride in my score just like I take pride in the items I sell and the way I ship. I try to keep shipping at a minimum, after all who wants to pay more for shipping than they paid for the item they purchased.
Well I guess that's enough about why I sell what I sell, how I got started, and how I feel about selling.
If there is anything you want or have been looking for pop me an email and I'll try to get it for you at a reasonable cost.
