You can get bubble wrap envelopes at walmart for 50 cent a piece, shipping cant cost much on something that light.

can get em on ebay for less //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

First class on average would prolly be about a buck. Prolly be better to just eat the $10, if something gets lost, instead of buying confirmation/insurance each time.

ebay charges a fee to list stuff John.
at least $3. Plus final value fees and paypal fees. You're going to have to seel a shit load of harnesses to make it worth it.

The min. ebay and paypal isnt $3 //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/confused.gif.e820e0216602db4765798ac39d28caa9.gif. I do agree everytime they hike it up, it makes it harder and harder to sell low $ items and make it worth your time. To create an auction for a wire harness=very little time. Just make a template and change what the harnes is for each time. To stick it in an envelope and get the buyers addy on there will only take a minute as well //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif. The products are free, dont see how it would be worth his time //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

If you have a really low starting bid, no reserve, no extra added-on stuff for the listing, no BIN option, etc and it is still $3 minimum? I've not listed anything since the rate hikes went in....

Every day I do anywhere from 2-8 radio installs in cars...and 99% of them I throw away the harness that is included with the radio....I just went on Ebay, and these things sell for like $10 with shipping...figure flat rate shipping envelopes are what, $2 at max? That's $8 pure profit on something that normally gets thrown out...if I do 5 radios a day, that's $40 in profit....sounds like a plan...

Good idea, I shall follow in your foot steps.

Sorry I'm retarded. Its like .30 with no options added. Usually when I sell, I add more pics and gallery shit. Takes it to about $2.40.

Ahh...okay.

Like I said, I haven't listed anything on eBay in forever. Matter of fact, I owe them -$8.10 and have for like a year and a half now. I can't even remember at this point why I even have the credit anymore.

even still so what if it's 3 bucks for ebay listing. if you figure .87 to ship, 3 for ebay and 1 for paypal, you're still making 5.17 per for doing nothing. tell me that you wouldn't love to make 5.17 for basically taking 30 minutes out of your day.

Works out to over $10/hr which isn't terrible for doing nothing, really.

 

[Prowler573 5,000+ posts]

$10.34 an hour? think I'll pass thanks... lol

Our dollar is worth more than yours, Death.

In some regions of the country >$10/hr isn't bad money. Especially if it is in return for doing basically nothing on top of whatever other job you have besides the eBaying.

after a template is made.. no wya they woudl take 30 minuites each to do.

use printable envelope things (adds to teh costs a little) then it is super fast dont even have to write.

no reason after a template is made you ocudlnt list 10 in an hour with a single picture.

same as getting them ready to ship, harness/paypal sheet in the envelope, sticker on the outside

If its taking you an average of 30 mins total for each harness, you're doing something way wrong //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif. $10 is nothing special imo. I know people who do nothing at work except surf the net and get paid 12+/hr. Some have been at the same jobs for a couple years....how they get paid for literally nothing, thats beyond me //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/crazy.gif.c13912c32de98515d3142759a824dae7.gif

Listing them is no biggie...I can do it in the time I'd normally be spending on the computer anyway, so I'm not taking any time away from that...plus, the cost for listing them will be very little...1 picture listed (which is free), a very low buy it now (I'll do $.99 by it now with $9.01 shipping), which isn't going to be much at all. Paypal will be what, $.30 per auction? After Paypal fees and Ebays listing fees, still should get $7-8 profit on one. With shipping, still looking at around $5.

If I can sell ~20 a week that's ~$100 profit...which isn't much at all, but it's $100 in my pocket for not having to go out of my way all that much. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif
