Me? Why, I'm an eBay addict of course! No, I started selling on Half.com actually about 7 years ago. My journey started when I realized the college bookstore gave me literally 10% of what I paid for books, but selling them on Half.com usually gave me 60%. Not rocket science!
After gradually adding more and more books to my collection, I gave it a try on eBay. While the books didn't always sell the quickest, my clothes sure did! I found I had $1,000's waiting for me, if I could just list them all ~ which never happens! Are you like me? There's a continual PILE of "To List" items that just get bigger...and bigger?
Then, I reached it. The coveted Power Seller status! And boy it got to my head, I started shipping stuff like a mad lady ~ and got really burnt out. Finally, I just closed it all up and was going to walk away.
Then we had a baby, and looking into her sweet, soft, engaging face...daycare was NOT an option. So, I unpacked my briefcase, put away the suits, said good-bye to my favorite Starbucks barista...and become 100% mom, 100% of the day.
On my husband's days off, I list like a crazy mom on a mission.
I'm not sure what my mission is, but I know my purpose. It's to be a mother, her mother. And so, a-better-place-for-payton was born out of that philosophy ~ I want to create a life for her that was better than my own.
And thanks to the wonderful eBayers I'm meeting, it's all possible. Thanks everyone! Hopefully I'll join the ranks of Power Seller again one day!!I'm continuously adding more and more to my store, and always allow best offers on my items!
Thanks for stopping by ~ and best of luck to all my entrepreneurials out there!
