What Sold On eBay
On Sunday, March 31, 2019, I sold two items on eBay.
1. I sold a Legrand-Pass & Seymour White Three-Light Switch Plastic Despard Wall Plate K3-W at the full asking price.
This is a rather odd and boring item that I picked up back in 2017 in a large clearance lot at the local hardware store. These tiny switches are found mainly in older homes. Talking to my uncle who is an electrician, he said he had never seen a plastic one before and that you’d really want a metal wall plate to go with that sort of thing to fit the style. My best guess would be people remodeling older homes and going with a modern day look instead of historical. Or maybe they couldn’t find a metal one.
This is a perfect example of the type of “smalls” that I like to sell. List once and sell many over a few years. But it’s also something I wouldn’t recommend specializing in or buying by the gross. There’s a reason the hardware store got rid of them.
2. I sold a Celebrate The Spectacle 2006 90th Indy 500 CD Cardz via Best Offer AND with a 1% Promoted Listing.
Anything Indy 500 related is of personal interest and in my wheelhouse. And it’s readily available everywhere around Central Indiana. This particular item was picked up recently in an auction lot of costume jewelry and is the entire reason I went after this particular lot. There was a handful of these in there and they should start selling in April and May as we get closer to race time.
As far as CD Cardz goes, I couldn’t find a whole lot of information and no exact comp. Comps for other ones were all over the board, so I listed high and added Best Offer to the listing.
Is it May yet?!
