Beginning an ebay store

Do you stick with what works or take the leap?

I am so excited.  I have been able to leave one of my jobs and commit more time to our business on ebay.  It feels so right and it will be so much fun being able to do what I love and make a living at it.  I don't know about you, but most of the time when I quit a job I feel a little guilty.  Not this time, it just felt good.  I have been on a high ever since I gave my notice.  I told my husband we were on the verge of something big and it is going to be really really good.  I have been just walking around with a cheesy grin on my face.  I just wanted to spread the happiness and encourage everybody to follow their bliss.  I hope everyone had a wonderful holiday and will have an awesome New Year.

Sharing my thoughts

Our passion is passion!!

We have finally posted our new product.  We have been trying to get this idea up and running and are so happy we finally did it.  It is only the first of many we hope.  It is a sensual role-playing kit for couples.  It has a story, props and costumes and you can do whatever you want with it.  It is the sort of thing you use to help live out some fantasies.  After talking with quite a few people, they all thought it was a great idea for an evening of fun.  We wrote sensual stories that don't have endings.  It was with the concept of; if we gave the right beginning you could write the ending however you wanted.  I am anxious and excited to see how it will be perceived.  We have a ton of different ideas for couple role playing fantasies, but we kind of want to see how the idea goes.  It is also not that easy to write stories for each scenario.  Our other biggest problem has been to find good packaging.  We want to sell a beautiful quality product but have not had much luck finding a good container to put it all in.  Originally we wanted to do a velvet box, like a square hat box but we had no luck there.  Then we decided just a good sturdy box in a solid color would work but we couldn’t find a good product at a reasonable price.  Currently we are testing a few different ideas.  So we shall all see how it turns out.  So, cross your fingers it finds the right buyer.

Sale for a Profit

I fianally sold something for a profit. What a good feeling. You just want to go around and find other things to sell. I can see why people get addicted to this. I also love reading the comments. It is nice to hear from other people. I am going to keep at it and am still having a great time. Thanks everyone

First Sale

What  a great feeling when you finally sell something.  I sold it for 99 cents but it was a sale. I hope to get more the next time but it is incouraging. I am still doing my homework on how to list and times and such. It seems like there is a lot to know about this selling. I already have two jobs so I don't have endless time for this but I want to quit the jobs and be able to do this. Nice dream huh? Don't we all wish that?

My first listing went sour

I listed my first item on ebay and got not even one hit. So I revised it and am trying again. I just can't believe how many things go on sale on ebay every day. It is a wonder anyone makes money. Today I listed a few more things and for only three days. Why do they list for 7. Is there an advantage to that? I have been reading so much about ebay that I feel my head will explode. I hope I have learned something. I love reading all your comments and thank you for the support. This ebay thing  takes a lot of time. I did not open a store. It seems they charge you for every item you list and it is only in there a certain amount of time. Plus your monthly fee. So I am going to wait till I feel more confident that what I have will sell.

My daughter and I are doing this business together and she will be posting blogs also. We are a great team and most people can't believe we get along so well but she is my best friend. Her husband is convinced that the ambilical cord was never cut and when he married her she came with  carry on luggage. He checked his baggage in at the gate but not her. We cohabitate together and get a long  great. I cook and do laundry, she cleans and gives great sex and he thinks its great having two women live with him and only one he needs to please. Sounds good right? I also have two wonderful grandsons that live in the house and two dogs. We have a great time and alot of fun.
