Just sold my first Ugly Christmas sweater!!

 

I spent a large part of yesterday listing ugly Christmas sweaters.

I listed them from $9.99-$29.99 not really thinking anyone would pay high dollar for a used Christmas sweater…I mean come on! Are company parties really that important?

That they are.

I just sold this wonderful “Bubble” Snowman sweater for $29.99. Buy it Now!

It only cost me 99 cents & it comes complete with a snowman on the back and various snowmen on the front!

The guy already asked me when I’m going to ship it. He’s in a hurry! He bought it after it had been posted for about 1 hour. Needless to say, I was thrilled! This more than pays for the 13 sweaters I’ve collected over the year, some for $.45 and some for $.99.

Hopefully the sales will keep up!

A more Random Find

 

I purchased this phone for about $1 at a garage sale. I’m not sure how much it really was cuz I got a bunch of stuff for $6 instead of the asking price of about $20! So I think this was around $1 or 2.

I just sold it for a total of $24.49.

Ok, so nothing huge but after looking it up and realizing it might go for as little as 99 cents I was one happy camper!!!

Just something to brag to the hubby about…. Hehehe…

Shipping was $8.39 so my total in pocket after fees was a little over $12. My kids LOVED this phone while they had it to play with. They didn’t really know what it was but they got a few weeks of a toy (that I could set on the bed stand in the evenings for a classic look for guest instead of throwing in the toy box), and then I made money off it. Have I said how much I love my life?! It is good.

Sales Round up!

 

These are some of my slow sales.

I can’t even remember when I purchased these jeans. Maybe the beginning of summer. But for $16 I’d rather sell them then toss em!

I thought it was too late to post swim tops, but you never know when someone might be going on a cruise. Exactly what this lady was doing!

image

 

This collar I found in a trash can. The zipper was broken but I figured someone would find the value in it. From free to $10!

image

 

This skirt I had for ages. I finally relisted it this fall. It sold rather quickly after relisting. $15

image

 

I don’t know that LL Bean sells that well unless it is shoes. But Plaid patchwork does! Listed this about 2 times before someone purchased it!

image

This shirt is from last year. No one bought it so I finally listed it one last time before tossing it. Like, I’m pretty sure it was in the consignment pile and I had to pull it out when this bid came in! $9!

image

 

This dress I wasn’t sure about, but since it was Lands End I figured I would take a gamble, and of course it was only a 99 cent gamble! Turned out just fine. Sold at first listing!

image

 

These shirts, on the other hand were a Sllllloooowwww sale. I thought by listing them together I might get more attention. So hard for me to pass up good maternity clothing! I mean, these are two shirts that someone could be so happy with! Someone is, and for only $9 a shirt!

image

 

This was another slow sell. Bought this in the spring and thought it would be a quick turn over. WRONG! Had to get cold before anyone looked at it! Crazy people! Only $11 but glad I don’t have to store it anymore!

image

 

This was a very nice wool jacket for only $.99. I thought about keeping it but Jackets aren’t in my mommy closet just yet! Someone got a great deal on this for $20. I think it was on my 3rd listing week.

image

 

These slacks also were from spring time. Slow sell but I know someone it happy with the price they got them for!

image

 

Name Brand exersize pants seem to be slow but surely sale! I’m still buying them! $12.50

image

 

I don’t wear heels. SO I never understood why the ANKLE was on Gap slacks until I gave a friend a pair of slacks like these. She was so excited cuz she could wear them without heels. Ahhh, the life of a girl…the part I’m missing. Give me flats or give me …um, probably a lot of pain!

image

 

My hubby saw these shorts and got really excited. These are the kind of shorts he works in and loves!

But no, they weren’t for him. Wrong size. These had a lot of interest but no one bid until I moved them to my EBAY FOR NEXT SPRING box. Then, of course, they sold. Gooooo figure! But no complaining after pocketing $25!
