Okay, so I thought I'd do a little bit of an update here about how things are going with the selling. It has been fairly decent in the last couple of weeks.
I only have two different types of things I'm selling at the moment, games - of all platforms - and Halo Mega Bloks sets.
All of the different things are doing well, before, I had sold more money's worth of Halo stuff, but in the last few weeks the games have absolutely flown out and now they've surpassed the Halo stuff.
The Games
So, I have been selling a bunch of the Xbox 360 games, and I also sold a few PS3, a bunch of PS2 games, and even a few PC games, even though I don't have too many PC games up there.
Recently, I decided to put up all of my PS1 games. Some of which were fairly valuable. I put 5 up one evening, and the following morning I noticed that they had a bunch of views and a bunch of watchers. One ended up selling, and then another 5 went up that day, and the following morning I woke up to a sale of 2 games, and that person asked if he could buy another 3 and have them shipped together.
I put them all in a box and sent them off. Then the next morning, another 2 sold, one to Ireland, and one to Spain.
It has gone well, and this week I'm officially in profit. From everything I spent on everything I have, I'm now paid myself back, and from here on out, everything I have left - which is a lot - is all profit.
I have about 91 items up online, and have another 200+ to list.
Halo Stuff
There is a buyer ready to purchase a large vehicle, two small vehicles, and a few sets, and he wants to purchase them all at the same time, and have me send them to him in one package.
I'm delighted with that, and it'll be worth a fair few quid.
I do have other stuff I'm ready to put up there, but I don't have them complete yet.
All in all, it's going really well, and I'm delighted with how it has gone.
I've gone through some fear - especially in the early days - where I wondered if I had overdone it with the purchasing and if I was even able to make money back, and here we are now.
I am delighted about it all, and I love the whole process of seeking stuff out, negotiating the buys, cleaning the stuff, photographing, researching the price, selling and then sending it out. The whole process is great, and I really love it.
