I finally have my first update!
I've been communicating with a neighbor since 6/23 regarding four Wii games that I listed for $15. She responded to the neighborhood Facebook page that she wanted them BUT was a no show or didn't respond back to my messages. Yesterday, she showed up at my door!
I collected $15 and am a happy camper.
Below are items that I have listed. I've only listed these items on the neighborhood Facebook page and Craigslist. I've never posted on EBay before and I don't know how to factor in the shipping.
-Nike Air Jordan's $400
-Imitation Louis Vuitton duffle bag $100
-Microsoft Office Home and Student (1 license)$25
-Office Supplies $10-$15
-Camcorder w/tapes $25
-Nebulizer $25
-Rug $10
-Ottoman $15
-Canopy $25
I've got a few hits on the camcorder but no buy.
A guy is supposed to meet me today to buy the Microsoft Office license. Two people have inquired about the LV bag. One is pretty eager and the other said she is looking for a purse. I have one but haven't listed it yet. I told her I'll send her a pic and price after work. It's on the top shelf in my closet and I have to stand on a chair to get it down.
When I think about what is on the shelf in my closet I have a vaporizer and sewing machine with case that can be sold.
I'd really like to get into sewing but I haven't yet. That machine has been sitting in the closet for four years now. That is something to think about!
Can you believe I listed those Jordan's for $400? Pretty silly, I know but I saw someone EBay that were going for the same. I might lower to $250-$300. I really think I would get a hit for $250 but I'm going to give it some time. I just posted them today.
Tonight I'm going to post books and DVD's.
A neighbor is moving and they posted that they were giving away a FREE desk. The desk is from Wal-Mart and retails for $50. It's black and cute! Again, a neighbor responded that she'd take it then responded back saying her picky child doesn't want it. Shoot, I jumped on it! Picking that baby up today.
I'm not doing a menu this week. I'm out of it. I have no plan. DD1 texted me from work saying that we have yoga tonight and that she put fish in the fridge for dinner. She's such a wonderful kiddo!
Last night when I got home she was asleep. I lit a candle. The kind that makes a crackling sound like a fireplace and laid on the couch to read. I'm reading this really sick book. I got so disgusted I had to put it down and walk to the mail box. As disgusting as it is, I will read it tonight! lol
It's called Secrets in the Cellar.

If you offer free shipping, like maranath, you do need to know the shipping (or an approximation) before you list. For that you need to work with the USPS site to get an idea of cost.
And a scale is important to calculate weight. I use a food scale which I bought for $10. I have only had one error in shipping and the buyer owed less than $1, they di notify me and I refund them that amount.
