    Yes, this was not about selling these to people teaching kids to skate. It was about selling a simple PVC idea to roller skating businesses who easily profit by renting them out to parents who are trying to figure out how to teach their kid to skate.

    Whatever dude. F*cking experts everywhere these days. I'm sure your way is the best way. Feel free to share pics of your skating trophies... For the record, kids have been using aids to learn to walk, ride, and skate for decades. I'm sure you learned everything you know about balance without...

    The point is, it's a $5 idea selling for $70 on Amazon being rented for $3 per head. Someone saw a need, filled it, and made a lot of money in the process.

    Took my kid roller skating today for the first time. The place was renting these roller skate aids out for $3. A ton of kids had them. They're like $70 on Amazon.

    Made some adjustments to my site. I dropped all of my digital prices to $19.97 except one or two. I added new videos, and completely overhauled the sales page for the main product to turn it into a proper sales page. I added a pop up opt-in on a couple of pages with a 20% coupon code offer to...

    I 100% did not say flipping stuff from Temu will be easy. I said it could be a source of low-cost inventory online. Even if you buy low-cost inventory from Temu...you still have to sell it.

    I was late to bid in the pallet auction this morning. Apparently my brain didn't fully process the remaining time because the auctions ended before I checked the site. On a bright note, the site shows the final bid for items, which helped give an idea of what to expect from different kinds of...

    Do you have a suggestion for a better alternative than platforms? I've made money from both ebay and FB Marketplace. Both offer access to a lot of people. Whether or not items sell is a matter of connecting the right item at the right price to the right person (value creation). That's true on...

    Site 1 We're 2/3rds through the month, and it's been a bit of a dud. I made four sales at $19.97, but one immediately refunded as soon as they purchased. So I'm sitting right at $60 in revenue. Three of those sales happened in the last two days since I turned ads back on at $5/day. Since sales...

    These are pretty crazy. I'm looking at a pallet of rims with a bid of $200. I wonder how much it will go up by tomorrow. One rim is usually worth over $100. Looks like there's 10 or more on the pallet.

    That's the main appeal for me too. I'm so tired of sitting behind a computer. It's why I picked up a side gig, and it's also why I wanted to do this. It's fun. You meet people. You find cool shit and maybe turn it into money. What do you do for work? I'm an entrepreneur. I sell stuff. Well...

    Yesterday I slapped some old knives on ebay. I figured nobody would want them because they're dinged up, scratched up, etc. That's why they've been at the bottom of a box in my closet for years. So far, they got the most attention of all of my listings. For comparison, my jewelry items got 1-2...

    Got my first win today. Sold a large circular mirror for $25.00 in cold hard cash. Three people asked if it was available. One didn't respond. One asked if I would deliver (even though the listing says pickup only). The third only wanted to know the size, so I measured it, and she picked it up...

    Damn, good work. I've got stuff listed on ebay and Markeplace, but not on Craigslist. So far, I've got around 40 items listed, and it's been crickets. Not even so much as an "Is this still available?" message. Right now I've got 1 bid on 1 ebay item. Most of my other ebay items are listed on...

    How do you move them, is it with a truck or trailer? Do you deliver? I sold a couch and love seat last year and thought it was kind of a pain in the butt. Not many inquiries even though the furniture was in excellent condition. It did sell eventually, though.

    I think a lot of people get cold feet. They're buying used for a reason, and its tough to make the decision to part with money that could be used on other things. It's also not clear in FB Marketplace that you can actually replace that text with your own text to initiate conversations. I've had...
