Oh my gawd! So I decided to get rid of all my non-SU products. I chose to list my stuff on EBay rather than SCS because I figured I could get a better price. It has literally been a nightmare ... people want to shop at Macy's and pay dollar store prices. Almost all of this stuff is being listed at a financial loss to me -- but that really only matters to me.
EBay has this feature called Make Me An Offer where obviously people make an offer lower than your asking price. I had a CTMH stamp set BRAND new posted for $14.50 and I was getting offers for $9.00. This set sells for $22.95. Eventually, I remembered the reason why I am dumping all this stuff and dropped the price. But what a pain in the neck.
Onto other news, I received confirmation that my Starter Kit has shipped and will arrive on Friday April 10. I'm excited to get my hands on all that new gleaming SU product. I've also decided to have a Virtual Open House for my SU website. I've used the demonstrator website to create an ecard. I plan on having a raffle for a free stamp set and some other cool stuff. Hopefully, it will be successful. Oh and I have been hitting these EBay folks hard with the invites to the open house. Please wish me luck.
Thanks for looking and yes HE stamps!
I'm excited that your goodies are only days away! You're gonna have so much fun playing with all your new stuff! Sending good vibes your way for a successful Open House. :)
ReplyDeleteGood luck with your open house! What a great way to showcase your stuff! Good luck with ebay, too... At least you're making money to by more SU! Goodies!! Hee!
ReplyDeleteGood luck! Thanks for giving me a good chuckle today! I love your take on Ebayers. I have sold many items on Ebay and what you say is so true! Oh well, at least you are getting rid of things you may not use again and making a couple of bucks! Enjoy your new SU goodies!

ReplyDeleteNothing like stalking those SU shipments, lol! I'm sure you're going to have a grand time this weekend. Best of luck with your open house & don't let the cheapskates get you down! It'll be all better when you can finally touch, see & smell your new goodies!

I so feel for you!. I used Ebay years ago, but price have really dropped. It's so hard to swallow. However, think of all the space you will have for new goodies!
ReplyDeleteebay is definitely a bargain shopper world. though I've also seen people offering way more than they should for SU stuff sometimes too... so maybe its just better? haha, I've sold on Ebay but not any of my stampin stuff, so good luck!
ReplyDeleteHi Ben! Are you excited.. your SU goodies are coming tomorrow!! :)
ReplyDeleteOhhhhhh . . .Brown comes TODAY! You are gonna have such a fun weekend!
