If you’re a reseller, you’ve probably heard about the new Mercari update that promises zero seller fees.
This is a huge buzz in the reselling world, and while we do not sell a lot on Mercari, we thought we’d share some of the things we’ve heard about it.
Mercari recently announced that they are not having any more seller fees, which is huge. Reseller fees are a huge expense for us so we wanted to unpack what this means.

We recently had a $4,000 single sale that we almost lost, so we’re going to share the ins and outs of what to do in a situation like this. It’s a bit of a roller coaster when it’s a $4,000 sale and you’re trying to salvage it.
What was the item we almost lost the sale on? It was a four-wheel motorized scooter for two people. I bought it for $150 and had it for about six to eight months. It takes the right person to buy this type ..read more

Let’s jump into the do’s and don’ts of a $35,000 flip we did. This is a blast from the past. It’s the story of our huge Sleep Number flip.
We are going to share some pointers from this $35,000 flip and how we did it.
This wasn’t just one Sleep Number, it was a bunch of them. I love finding deals on bulk items and reselling them for huge profits. Anytime we find a good deal where somebody has a lot of them, we try to make a ..read more

What can you do if your items are not selling on eBay?
Slashing your prices in half is not the answer. How do you keep your items moving if an item hasn’t sold in a week or two?
If everybody starts slashing the prices, it brings the market down on everything. We don’t typically want to do that right now. eBay is definitely experimenting with different ways that they are charging their sellers more money to get their items ..read more

Our largest flip ever was actually the tallest flip and it was a pretty big one.
This item was laid down on its back to ship via freight. Most of the items can’t be taller than 8 feet if they’re going via freight in an 18-wheeler. I actually had to lay this one down and pallet it like that, so it was a super long item.
It was the bus wash, well, actually two bus washes!
Finding Our Largest Flips
The first bus wash was an item I ..read more
