Last Pick

automatically switched me over to free returns at some point recently. I just found out with this $200 return of a vintage shirt. I've never had more issues with the site than in the last 2 months since I've increased my volume. Which makes sense but its super frustrating. I have never allowed returns in my decade+ on the site and now I'm out the sale and shipping both ways because some automated code decided to have a day.

I'll just have to be better about double checking listings before I submit them from now on.

I saw a reseller post recently that said you need to figure out "no risk" buys. Let me tell you, there is no such thing. The market fluctuates and changes more than the weather in the Midwest. Whether you are risking $1 or $10,000 you are never guaranteed to get it back, let alone make a profit on it.

So, please don't pay someone $50 a month to tell you that all you need to do is spend $5k a month on a credit card and you'll be making 6 figures. It may work, but it may not.

Be smart, work within your limits, and understand that it's always a risk. Believing there are "no risk" buys is how Redbox, Blockbuster, RadioShack and dozens of pallet resale businesses have gone under.

Enjoy the recent sales after multiple weeks in a row with no posts.
