However Your 4.4 rating on shipping and handling charges, combined with some recent feedback you received, indicates where some of that profit is being made. Not that there's anything wrong with that. Get what the market will bear. More power to ya!!

Gold dust in envelopes, who would have guessed people would buy it. What does the customer do with it, when they get it. Melt it down with a spoon and candle, until you have a bar to sell?

However Your 4.4 rating on shipping and handling charges...

I think the detailed seller ratings for "shipping and handling charges" and "shipping time" are just a load of crap. 99% of the buyers really don't know what the cost is to ship from Canada, the cost of supplies, the cost and time to get the items to the PO. I add a very small upcharge to my actual shipping cost, usually not enough to cover the actual expenses, but people are still unhappy with the shipping cost, and it's listed upfront...

Then, they base their "shipping time" on the service provided by the courier or PO, regardless of the fact that we ship the item same day or next day.

So you can go fast shipping, and get nailed on your shipping cost rating, or go economical shipping, and get nailed on your shipping time.

The only things that are actually rating the seller exclusively, are the communication and as described.

I Know, off topic and rambling, but something catches your eye, and you feel like venting........

Hi central, congratulations to the house!

Can you share some tips on marketing?

How did you know selling metals and paintball accessories on eBay would bring 100k/m in sales? Or you can repeat that with any goods?

I will appreciate any points from you.

Hi there . I really dont know much i just enjoy buying and selling its like christmas for me every day even when i whine and complain about ppl its just a talent i guess .

I have been in the metal buissness (copper brass aluminum gold silver ect) since i was 15 thats how i started out (Prev to that i had raised calves from dairy barns for about 6 years made about 7000.00 then my father went bankrupt in the meat buissness (due to fraud from another person we lost 1.5 million back in 1996) So went in to buissness with him 50/50 he only had about 8 k i put in 7 k and so begun my metal career .

The way i see things is if i can find an inch and make a profit then i expand on that and just keep reworking and trying stuff till its extreamly profitable . I love LOVE LOVE killing my competition . oh thats the best high of all . Which i have done very well i have next to no competition any new guys come in ill sell mass and lose money just to kill them off 😄 I dont care i love the game not the money .

SO ya you just gotta find something that makes money make a good base and expand from that its just so tricky in canada because of our stupid parcel rules .

Im currently at 140k of sales on ebay and 535k of sales combined with my other companys . Ebay as long as the economy holds up and i stick around will be at 300k+ K a month sales by this time next year 100% guarentee 😄 I wanna try and make 750k a year on ebay for fun 😄

Thanks
