Well, Its nice to have a sale now and then, and today I got two! One on ebay and one of Etsy. On one site I sold something I paid $2.00 for and the other I paid $3.00 for. One I bought at a thrift store and one at a local fleamarket. I got 19.99 on ebay and $20 on Etsy. I'd say thats a good day, and a good profit. Ebay has been real slow lately. Use to be I was selling left and right there. all I had to do was list, and like magic it sold! I did have a sale there last month. I was finding these cute little glass decanters. They looked like a man or woman. The stopper had a face in it. I was listing them starting at 9.99 and paying from $2.00 to $3.oo for them. Then I found one that was a woman and one a man in the same color aka a pair! Well the pair sold for over $45 and a single man sold for $56 and one I only got 9.99 for. I guess it really depends who is looking at what times. Come to find out they are very collectible. I have seen them listed as Blenko glass and some other European or Italian glass. One was listed on Ebay starting at $177 in England. I am happy enough with the profit I made and now someone is happy that they got a bargain with thier purchase. What better day could I have?
Another good thing to come from my sales. I was looking for a toddler gift and saw a plea on Etsy for sales from someone having a difficult time in thier lives right now. Since I had 2 sales today, i purchased a handmade clown doll for the toddler gift, and not only got a great handmade gift, I made someone elses day too!
