What Sold On eBay

On Wednesday, April 17, 2019, I sold two items on eBay.

National Biscuit Company Jar Vintage Nabisco Store Display Stacking Glass Globe

I sold a National Biscuit Company Jar Vintage Nabisco Store Display Stacking Glass Globe via Best Offer and Promoted Listings at trending + 2% (I’ll add the rate once they pay, but it looks like it is around 8%).

My dad picked this up in an auction lot in February that he won going after another item. As I was sorting through things I saw what I initially thought was a fishbowl, filled with Easter grass and old dyed eggs…one from 1881!!! As I looked closer I realized that it was actually an old counter jar they’d put crackers and whatnot in at the local corner store in the early 1900s.

I also found an old note explaining where everything came from, which was pretty cool.

As far as the eggs go, that probably deserves a blog post of its own. As I’ve researched I’ve only found a few such eggs and they appear to be in museums.

VERDICT: Buy. If you can get all three sizes and their lids, even better.

Vans Sk8-Hi All Maroon Canvas Skate Shoes

I sold a pair of Vans Sk8-Hi All Maroon Canvas Skate Shoes via Best Offer.

I picked these up at an auction in February as an experiment. But they weren’t in as good as a condition as I had initially thought, making it hard to sell them for what similar pairs usually go for. You live and learn.

VERDICT: Pick them up if they’re in decent shape and at a good price. Vans seem to be pretty hot right now.

Weekly Listing Challenge Update for Week 16 (2019 Q2 W3)

Yesterday I listed 0 items on Fazoom.com, 0 items on eBay and 12 items on Poshmark.

Wednesday is my sourcing day so anything listing on Wednesday is a bonus.

Today will be spent listing jewelry on all three platforms as well as listing a few hats on eBay. Then I’ll move some more clothing items from eBay to Fazoom.com and cross-post them to Poshmark.

At the end of the day, I would like to have my weekly listing goals knocked out, so I need to get cracking.
