eBay Chat with Nancy in Arkansas: Duck Calls, VTG Linens, Knives, Hot Rollers & More Random Stuff 🦆

Hey there, eBay friends. This is Suzanne a Wells your hostess. Today's date is June 15 2022. And this is episode number 65 of eBay the right way. Nancy is my guest in today's episode, and she has a fun story about how she got started on eBay. The very first item she sold, as well as talking about the wide variety of items she sells now, and some general reseller conversation. One quick announcement because I've been getting emails about this, this year's bolo book is

Hello eBay listeners.

And we always start off with finding out where you're located.

Okay, well I am in an area that we don't like to tell people about because we don't want anybody to move here because we love it so much. Okay, but I'm in north northwest Arkansas in the middle of the Ozark Mountains. We are very very close to Oklahoma and Missouri. That's a matter of fact. I'm probably 30 minutes from Missouri so we're way up north and those aren't mountains are beautiful. And anyway, we we have about 1235 cities in a row.

anyway, that's where I am. Okay, so I have to ask if you watch the Netflix show Ozar

Yes, and it doesn't it's not a good representation of what it's like you're in But trust me, you you're gonna find hillbillies around. There's no doubt about it, but not where I am about I could drive an hour away and and find hillbillies for sure.

No. Well, it's interesting side note is that was filmed in Georgia right near me, Lake Allatoona. Literally, like, I don't know, five miles from me. And they filmed it at what's in the show is called, I think the blue cat Lodge. That was a restaurant that was overlooking the lake. And it's right by a small two Lane Bridge. So when they would be filming, the bridge was closed. And the residents hated it, because they had to go all the way around like 20 miles around

Trust me, I could find those people that are on there. I could find them easily. I mean,

oh, yeah. Everybody can just like, like they're around. So okay, that and you may have another thing in common is that you used to live at or near Lake BQE in South Carolina, where I was with my friend. Right? And did you say that your husband worked at the power plant?

Yes, there's a nuclear power plant there tend to be a little bit remote. Nuclear plants are not built, you know, in metropolitan areas, they're built out now he's have to be able to like, that's just part of how all that works with the cooling tower. And in that, all that technical stuff that I don't know very much about? Well, what

I noticed visiting here was how clean that lake was.

Yeah, yeah. Well, that's a story in itself, because that used to be a town, we're at the bottom of that way. And some man made lake. And when the they came in and built that power plant there, they had to flood it, they flooded that area. And there was people that had houses there, there are people that have businesses there, and they are now all underwater. And you would actually meet someone, and they if they would ask you do you live on the lake? And if you said yes, they did not like you.

well, and I did some research on it after I visited there for the first time. And it's I think the second cleanest lake in the United States. Wow, nothing it ranks way up there. And as I just mentioned, I've lived near the disgusting ground. Which a lot of them are because they're just jello and the dirt, mud, you know, getting mixed up in it. So it's not these pristine, clean lakes. You see other places, but I was just so impressed with how clean it was.

I know in Arkansas lots of times, you know, one of the because of Tyson there's a lot of have chicken farms and the runoff sometimes from the chicken arms will get in the water. You know, they just don't have anything like that on like kiwi. It's you know, it's just living there. There's no industry that mean the nuclear plant the nuclear plants very clean. Anyway, so I don't have any of that. But I did not know that Suzanne I didn't know is the claim second clean slate.

well revisit that read. Because I don't know if it's I mean, it's a beautiful place. Anyway, that connection. Okay, so yeah, how could you not it's so beautiful. It really is. So it's just, what, 20 minutes from Seneca, South Carolina. Something like that

we lived on. We lived on the lake we live in, in our address was Seneca but we lived on Lake so it's a huge like, I can't remember I'm going to if I give you a number, but there's it's huge. Yeah, it's a big one. Yeah. So

anyway. Okay, so back to eBay.

favorite chocolate, right? Yeah.

Well, I mean, we can I can ramble on with anybody about anything. So who knows what we're gonna get into? How did you get started selling on eBay?

Well, it's a crazy story, because I tend to be a little bit impulsive about things. And one day, I just said, I'm gonna start selling on eBay. I mean, I did not put any planning into it. I did not put any forethought into it. I have been ordering things from ebay for years. And I just was at a place in my life where I wasn't working. I wasn't employed. And I just love thrifting always have my whole life. And I just decided I was going to do it. And the first item that I sold

Oh my god. I guess so it's a fast sale for that much money of something that is seems so I don't want to say odd. But yeah. When you think of selling on eBay, you think of clothing and dishes and collectibles and kids stuff that they don't need anymore and adopt I

have found just Yeah. And my husband says that people collect them. I did you know that's something I don't know anything about Chris dynasty, remember that. That's what they did this make you know, that was the trend they make up. And anyway, I have found just recently I went to yard sale a couple of weeks ago and I this gentleman had was a former fisherman. And he was also collected some memorabilia from the Civil War. And I bought a fish scale of the ways fish I

Like can you send some of that mojo to me? I guess I need to start looking for different things.

Yeah. Yeah. It was amazing.

Okay, now, did you transition to other things? Are you still mostly fishing and hunting stuff?

Oh, no, that just that started, okay. The duck call started was the very first thing and I really haven't bottled haven't sold a lot of that stuff. It just happened a couple of weeks ago that I ran into that yard sale or there were some things really inexpensive and my husband was with me and he's like, Yeah, but I sell anything and everything. I I trying to think what I you know, I are still glassware I sell

spritz, right?

Yeah, I've sold a lot of those. And I also have sold a lot of tattered quilts, which cracks me up. Because, I mean, they're, they're not in good shape, but they're old and people love them. And you know, the goodwill bins, you buy stuff there for 79 cents, Pam, the linens are 79 cents a pound. So they asked 810 $2 and a half on a quilt. And so for $49 and I've had one all the time. I even bought one. You know, some are

yeah, the first one I sold this one I had had a mother bought it back in the 90s I think and something about they went on a trip through Amish and Mennonite country and bought this from some ladies that had a bunch of quilts out in their yard. And I mean, it was actually you know, it was a handmade Mennonite quilt. And then fast forward to 2003 I got divorced, mom had hip surgery, she moved in with me for a

Yeah. But I mean, I spend, that's when I go to the goodwill bins. That's my first stop is the linens. And anyway, I continue to find them over and over again. And it It surprises me that I find them because it just surprises me, but they're always there. And I always get it. And I always sell them.

And I think it goes back to the average person. If you're not a reseller. The average person doesn't understand there's a market for things that is just shocking. You know, it's like why would somebody buy that because I help new sellers all the time. And they're like, I don't understand why there's these completed listings for, you know, these old broken, whatever the thing is, why what is that a mistake?

we were in a gift store this weekend, and they had made bracelets out of old typewriter letters. And so I eBay after that, to see if those were available, and they definitely are available. And they'll just take, you know, an old typewriter in his personal letter or the number on it, and it is older because it has metal around it. And they sell them on

yeah, I started seeing that on Etsy. When it for okay. And the old manual typewriters, even there, you know, look like they've been run over by a car. And you can sell those because they're taking them apart and using the keys to make things fly. Yeah. So it's just everything's being repurposed and fascinating to me. What people come up with to repurpose. It's like I never

write. Yeah, I was fascinated by that. Because they're really cute. bracelets.

Yeah. And it's a fun

thing. And there were $65 to

Yeah, somebody's making money on that. Okay, so what other kinds of things have you sold that have interesting stories?

Well, one of my most exciting things that I sold was some Cutco knives. And I had learned about that, I'm sure from you. From you know, I'm sure that's because I had never heard of those in my life. And there's I have a goodwill. The Goodwill bins are about two miles this way in the goodwill of Rogers is about two miles the other way. And I walked in there one day and I was in the woods

Now wait, let's back up a second. Because I know they had that lifetime guarantee where they would sharpen or repair the handles. Do you have to have any kind of receipt of where you bought?

No. No.

And shipping either way?

I did. It wasn't very expensive because I took them out of the box. They are I don't know, I can't remember the number. They were either 810 or 12. This has been you know, a year and a half ago probably. But anyway, I took them out shipped them. I think it was you know less than $10 to ship them. And then I had to send them I think $15 For them shipping back things. And they came back and they were like new and I more

Well, how much did they sell for?

I'm gonna say about 99 Okay, and I probably paid I probably invested. They were like $6 leave or not at Goodwill with the box

either. Leave it they miss things all the time. That's all my last and I've never found any except in people's kitchens when I'm visiting their house, like, Oh, I see you have a Cutco knife set there. That's I think everybody does that every dollar on somebody's house, they're like, Oh, I see you've got that some cross stitch thing on the wall

And I have never found one again, I mean, always, always look, I have sold other knives, though, you know that nothing like that. But certain brands, I can't think of off the top of my head, but you just look them up handfuls are just some of the different main brands of knives are sold individually are so cleavers. But I always check out the knives, just check in. And the thing about goodwill that makes you crazy is they take they put

well and knows I love selling because they're overlooked. They're like no technology needed. They're so easy to ship. They're durable, you know, a lot of them fit in a padded flat rate mailer. And contrary to popular belief, not everybody does stuff on their phone, you know, these people who work outside landscapers or real estate agents that have to have they like a book, they like a notebook, especially if they have paperwork to keep up with.

I was gonna list I agree with you. And you know, we live in South Carolina, I manage this landscape office. And the gentleman that I worked for very small office we had we had like five employees, but he did all the landscaping. I'm like kiwi. So I mean, it was unbelievable what people paid $40,000 to have their yard landscaped. I believe it, it blew my mind. Well, in a lot

of that area is very hilly. So you had to do the, like the railroad ties making the steps down to the water. And, you know, they would would turn basically the side of a cliff into a very livable space with a landing and a fire pit. And, you know, that takes a lot of grading and personal hand work to make it

he was very, very, very good at what he did. And he loved seeing the end products and the things that he did. But anyway, he never even knew how to turn on a computer. He definitely I mean he could use his phone, you know, to make phone calls. That was about the end of it. So he would definitely be one that would carry I mean, he did everything on legal pads. So but I was gonna go through what I we've been gone like mentioned earlier, I went to Texas, our granddaughter graduated from

It's so funny that you mentioned that because over the weekend, I watched that show on Netflix called Midnight Mass. And it's like a seven part. Creepy sort really horror, but I thought it was a good story at first and the priests. He does, he does take communion to shut ins. So he has this kit. It's like a little doctor's bag. And inside, you've got the vials for the wine and the wafers and the Bible and all that stuff. And the cloth you spread out.

It's it's silver plated, and it has the low silver cups, and it has a funnel. And it has two cups, and then has cases for the cups. And then I don't know exactly what's in that. Anyway, you put the little cups in the cases, and you put the bundle in the cases. And anyway, I just sold that the other day. I've had it for a while. I went into Habitat for

when you call or why? Don't you think I'm pronouncing that right. But that's, that's my southern pronunciation.

But anyway, so I've enjoyed selling bras a lot because like you say, they're so easy to ship. And, you know, in your course you talk about, you know, all the information you need is right there on the bra. You just have to repeat it. It's all there the site, let

me know what you got to remember is, and I did a little printable, like a reminder sheet, because you forget to look at the hook and I to make sure they're all there. And you know, little strap thingies work because sometimes that's why they get donated is those two things are not working right. But my friend and I have a joke because I say yeah, bras are small, lightweight and easy

Yeah, I went dealers the other day just for that very reason to look at bras and just see what different brands they carried. And which ones you know the ones that are the most expensive that we're going to be out front, obviously. So I I just went in there and checked out their role was to see which ones they had out front and how much they were and noted the brands and that type of thing. But I goodwill sells them for $2 going price and on you know when they have their their dollar

Yeah, a little bit more extra boost up there in the front. Last but they love I'm surprised at the good quality. I find bras like some guy because Because me personally is a frugal person. The next step after I wear it for a while is the trash.

Exactly.

But I think you know, something people buy more of they're pretty they make you feel pretty, or you know, functional, whichever reason, but most women have at least one drawer full.

If right one,

and then they, you know, recalibrate that and donate those are not wearing and all that stuff. So I tend to gravitate towards the pretty ones.

Definitely, definitely, they sell better. I have a beige one that I sold. I can't remember the exact brand of it. But it was kind of different looking. But I had, you know, did a research on it found out that it had some values. But since I started selling them after I took your course, and I probably sold me half a dozen, something like that in the last couple months.

Well, and I find that they don't get returned. Right. I don't know if maybe Luckily, they fit perfectly and they don't want to return them or it's just not worth the hassle. I don't know. I like to focus on things that don't get returned. So good

point. I never thought about that. I've never had one return.

Yeah. So that's that's a plus you kind of have to look at the the big picture the long haul. Yeah, you can sell stuff immediately like that duck call. That's not going to get because it's so unusual. And it's a collectible. So that's where my business has shifted like in the last five years is collectibles, things that are hard to find and and I did a podcast with Casey last week. And you know, he's talking about he finds things that are rare

you. One thing I was have I found this once I'm found again, it was out of your bolo book, which I love the bolo book. I don't have it in front of me or tell you what page it's on, but

I probably know it's so

hot rollers, you know that they use in pageants, and I found those. Really? Yes, I couldn't believe it and they were all off. You know, I had to dig through the bands and put them all back together. And I was like, yes, they're all here and even had lit and everything. There was a crack in the there's one little crack in it. So I paid $2 You know for those and I Psalm 59. I mean,

okay, what she's talking about are the Remington tie curls, I think. Yes. And there's a wax Center, which yes, it gets hotter than a regular curler, but they don't make them anymore. Right. Probably because they get so hot. And I think there were some lawsuits about people's heads getting burned or something but the pageant moms love those for their girls. They create such nice Ringlock curls

Yeah, I was shocked when I found them and then I found another this is the bins as well I found another set still in the box. It wasn't the tight curls, but it did have the wax center and it was a Remington set. And I sold those, you know, I don't know if I sold them the right price or not. They went for 5999 I paid $2 for him. And the gentleman that bought them said if you get any

more those

I said well if I find more, I'll let you know. One of the most exciting things exciting things I found was this was the bins it was just like I can't do the clothes with the bands I just can't get it's just overwhelming to me. I mean I just do the surface I just kind of glanced through that I can

understand I don't have hours Yeah, I don't have the bins here and I don't know how people do it because it does seem so overwhelming and they're like they're like leaned over into the bin with their feet sticking up in the air dig and I don't want to get that close to it like what's in the bottom of this a dead mouse? I don't know.

Well speaking of that, I couldn't believe this this kind of creeped me out. I bought a hot plate affordable hot plate it was rolled and they do have a place of Batman's we can plug things in. So I plugged it in and started getting hot. I'm thinking okay, this works well when I did that a roach crawled out. Right. I am so glad I did not bring this on like the road trip. A Why have not sold that? Yes. manufacture that. And what was it

that you found?

It was a hot plate like right? Okay, it was it was vintage as portable hot plate that you would use, you know, in your house or kitchen or whatever. But I did find a shin nail robe, a vintage nail robe. And it was it was so cute. It had flip flops and Chanel. It had like a beach ball and Shinya. You're I'm talking about Yeah, the style. I'm what's the brand, you know,

Kenyan robe? Yes. Oh, okay. Yeah, those that's on my list. Yeah, because those those were made famous by Fran Drescher in the nanny. She wore really ones and that's they as was a 90s thing. So those are sort of a collectible. The patterns and they're very thick, and they're just whimsical and fun.

Yes, this is so cute. Had just different beach objects on it in the shoe O'Neill and I sold it for it was I got it the bins so I pay you know 99 cents for it. I sold it for around $100 And it was just laying there laying on top of the coils always people are milling around and no it had the belt and everything and didn't have any holes in it. It was beautiful. And anyway whoever I sold it to was like Oh, thank you. Thank you. Thank you I wanted one of

and they're easy to spot like on the rack if if the pajamas are hung up because of the texture there. That Chanel. It's like a bathmat almost like a shag carpet. You know they're very easy to see I always look I'm going to find one one day but you know hey, there's money in pajamas people you're not looking at them.

Something else I buy a lot of is loungewear but it definitely has to do with alcohol and like Bud Light or Cougars or whatever any. And Jack Daniels any type of alcohol that's written on the loungewear and I lounge where you can buy for $2.50 Unless it's half price day and then it's $1 and a quarter and I my I'm guessing that college kids bodies I'm just guessing I don't know that for sure. But if I see lounge where that has any kind of alcohol on it, I buy it.

Well I don't know about that. I know some adults that would wear that. So some adults that love their are very specific brands of alcohol. Such as Ketos. Yeah, I could go anywhere. But yeah, I hadn't thought about that. And so it doesn't matter what the brand is. It's just the know.

Something else I saw as soon as I, it doesn't even matter what kind of condition it is overalls. Sure. There's a couple of the brands

see us and you got some liberty.

Overall, yes.

were purchased. And then the person didn't pay, which that is I bought eBay was fixing that I had that happen three times in May. One was $115 item. They just sent me an offer and I accepted it. And then five minutes later, Oh, I did this by mistake. And I don't you have to go through so many screens. How can that be a mistake. And then another one was an $85 shirt. Loro Piana shirt and made an offer I accepted it didn't pay. And then the latest one is a $70

Watch, you get charged a fee from eBay.

Well, that gets reversed if they are not paying and it, you know, closes out on its own. But okay, I just, I don't understand, you know, it's always I did that by mistake or no communication whatsoever. And I just, I guess these people aren't sellers, but then again, guys, the only place on the internet, you can do that. So hopefully that will be fixed at some point where you know what, if you're going to make an offer, eBay is gonna hold you to it, and you're gonna have to

that's I agree with you 100% on that, you know, I mean, anytime you buy anything, you're immediately charged for it.

Yeah, it's just frustrating. And there's nothing I had,

right? I had an interesting thing happened to me, I bought a pair of brand new Birkenstocks. The lady had worn them once. I bought them on Facebook marketplace for $20 and sold them for like 69, something like that. And the lady wanted to return them. She said they were too big. Well, I got him back. And I'm just naive a little bit about things and assumed that I was getting got

Yeah, that's, and it just it blows my mind, because I'm an honest person. And I would never think to do that. So that that's my world. And so sometimes these customers bring out the worst in us, because they fully switch a ruse or, you know, that's their way of life. That's how they do everything. Fall, use, like fall onto the spider's web. You're just a victim of their plan. And I don't know, I just feel like karma will take care of it at some point, like I it's out of

Right. Let me ask you this. Do you ever sell things that are really expensive? And if so, what kind of protection do you get on that type of therapy? I have a piece of jewelry I'd like to sell. It's about this worth $1,000 that. I'm just hesitant to sell it on eBay.

Um, right. No, that's a general rule. I don't sell that autographed book that sold for $1,000 and that was that was a Real outlier, like, probably never gonna happen again. And then I've had some $300 sales, but I generally am just not comfortable with these high dollar sales. I know other people do it. But I just have been burned too many times feel like too much can go wrong with

I probably won't sell that piece of jewelry. It's really interesting. It was my brother in law gave it to me. And I don't know how he acquired it. I mean, it was a gift. It's a it's a heat, it's a dove. And it has a little diamond eye on it. But it was presented at the Academy Awards. One year is the yeah, that's all the stars that were on Academy Awards. Got it. And there's, I've got this paperwork, I've got the original box, I have everything. And I'll never wear it, I don't need it.

well, I have sold back in the early days, I did sell some jewelry, that it was less than $1,000. But that was a completely different time and place. And now. I feel like I feel like there's a lot more scamming going on. And, you know, I just don't want to fall into that situation. And you know, in that question, Should I sell this? Or what's the highest price item you've ever sold? If you ask 100 different sellers, you're gonna get 100 different

right. I guess when you when that little voice tells you don't you don't know. You get you get screwed a timer to you. It changes you just a little bit, you just become a little more cautious

think, well, maybe you could ask some of these jewelry sellers like Wendy Krueger, who she sells a lot of jewelry. And I think she's she doesn't have a background in jewelry sales. It's just something she got into. But I do see her selling a lot of expensive pieces. So maybe you could reach out to her and ask her how to protect yourself. If you decide you want to go that route.

So what other interesting things that I saw my father in law passed away, but he loves to play baseball. And he saved all his jerseys. And so I and they were ripped, and they had stains on them. And they're missing buttons and in the whole shebang. And as soon as I listed those they sold immediately. And they're they're really neat, you know, because back back in his day, he was born in 1923. So back in his day, they would wear wool, which is crazy, you know, to play baseball in softball.

How many items do you have in your store?

About 550 But we would like I mentioned we were went to Texas yesterday, I mean last week and and on the way back and I went I went through and started marking a bunch of stuff down. Because things that I've had for a long time. And if I'm happy with about 500 That's that's a good place for me. But there's some things I've had a long time that I just would like to get rid of in line so I'm starting to After a few things down,

so what do you consider a long time?

Well, I've been doing it for over a year in nine months, approximately, and some of the things I've had, you know, from since then, yeah.

I usually look at about two years and Okay, unless it's something I would buy now. Yeah, and your business changes. So I've got two tubs full of dresses, I can't give a dress away, I don't know what to do. And they're good brands, you know, they're prana and Athleta. And stuff new with tags, Ralph Lauren, dollar tags. And, you know, they're like the faux wrap stretchy dresses that are figure flattering for any figure, like, they're stretchy, so they don't have to fit perfectly. I used to

I think COVID changed things a lot. You know, people got used to wearing their loungewear every day and not going into the office. And as a matter of fact, we have a first store here that it's wonderful for a store called the Samaritan center, and every bit of profit they make, they use the mind to feed children. And it's a huge thrift store. And they, this, they're scientists, they, they provide food for 6000 kids a week. So it's amazing, but and I used to work there as volunteer.

maybe making a pile every time you're putting stuff out. Okay, and I've got that over there as my pile and mine that Yeah.

It's just unethical. Money goes to the kids. But anyway, I was in there the other day, we talked to one of the gals that I used to work with, and she said the quality of clothing they're getting is different now than they used to get. Just because people aren't dressing up as much. They're just not getting, you know, the fancy items anymore. donated.

So, yeah, I think that's part of it. We need to switch to those beer themed lounge. And duck call works. Okay, well, we've been going about an hour. So this is where I asked you what kind of advice would you give to somebody just start now because you're, you know, I've been doing it less than two years.

Yeah. Well, you know, I'm on several different eBay groups, you know, more people chat about different things. Number one internationals awesome. I just get a kick out of just seeing who's buying stuff from me. And it's no different in anywhere in this Facebook group. People are like, Oh, I'm so afraid to sell over, you know, overseas, there's nothing to it. It's no different from selling to the next state. And anyway, I just think it's so much fun to sell things to

Yeah. Just look at the map. I don't even know where that is. Where's that they're just people like us that want to buy and manage. living overseas, you don't know.

Right? I so I had this kit, it was for canning, like canning vegetables or fruit or whatever. It wasn't the jars and the lids. It was the equipment that you would use, like the tongs that you would pick things up. Whatever. Anyway, it was not a really nice kit. I was only I sold it for $20 but it went to Uganda a little bit with this gentleman, and he said he just can't get things like that there. And you know, he likes to garden and and campings and it's just unavailable to him there.

Well and so on some of these other sites. I don't know how Poshmark works. But I have heard that, like other sites don't even have international shipping, or if it's cost prohibitive. So these people are coming to eBay because in They have to find a seller who will do it. Which I have courses on how to do this, and there really is nothing to it. You don't even need a court. No, I don't understand the mental block people have about the fear of shipping to another country, because we are in a

And the other thing I would you know, when you very first get started, obviously, you need to be prepared for anything and everything. And you know, get all your supplies ready and organized. So that when when that item sells, you can just get it in the mail as quickly as possible. And you have all the packing materials that you need the right boxes, etc. And all friends and family are willing more than willing to save, you know, packing materials and boxes for you.

I don't because I'm so much faster with the old one. And I feel like that new one, you have to do all these dropdowns to find different options. And I tried it when it first came out. And my feeling is that they are going to continually improve it until they make it mandatory. So I'm just waiting for that. Because I get very frustrated when things slow me down.

Yeah, you know what's funny is I they asked me if I wanted to try it. And I said yeah, I want to try it well then enough when I burfi tried it, I did not like it at all. And I said I want to switch back they said you can't they told me I could

Oh, so I won't switch until I'm ready. Right. Okay, so, but I do go ahead. I'm sorry.

Like it now. Okay, to me, it's faster. Okay, good.

Well, that's good news that they are continuing to improve it. So I wanted to make one comment on what you said about boxes and shipping materials. Well, you Do you want to figure out your shipping? When you're listing an item? Don't let that cripple you prohibit you from listing it? Because I hear this all the time, like, oh, I have this great item, but I don't have a box for it. Okay, well, then you just estimate, okay, you know, it's going to take this size box, and that probably weighs

Now one thing I think you'd have mentioned this as well, but I've gotten away from big items, just because, you know, like big glass trays, you know, things like that. I just don't buy them anymore. When I started I did and then I found out how complicated it was to get them packed properly. So they arrived, you know, in check for the supplier. And I tend to be a little bit of over Packer

And you have to figure out if you want to do it, it amazes me all the people that they don't care, they love it, they ship lamps and TVs and all this, you know, auto parts and all these things. And I personally just don't want to everything in my life is small and compact. And that's just the way I roll. And I mean, yeah, if I see a 300 ollar cookie jar, I'm getting it. Okay. Well, thank you so much for coming on. Having this chat. Nice to meet you in person. Finally.

Nice to meet you. And I tell you what, if you guys aren't subscribed, I'm Suzanne did not to me to say this, but I have learned so much from you. I I mean, I follow a lot of people on YouTube and and by far I've learned more from you than anyone. So I appreciate what I appreciate about you so much is that you're so thorough and so detailed in. And when you do come out with something in a premium library, it's got all the answers that you need. I appreciate it very much.

Well, thank you for saying that. I'm glad I sell things to you. And you're doing great. Not even having done this business for two years yet. I mean, you use I thought you were doing a lot longer so good for you.

It's just a perfect for me, it's a perfect thing to do at my age, when I'm not employed. And I have time to go thrift. And it's just fun. Fun for somebody my age to do anybody's age, but I you know, I have more time than people probably do.

Well, and that's one thing about you know, the baby boomers, the older Gen X or that we've lived through all these decades, and we know what all this stuff is, you know, 2535 year old they don't they don't remember all these things because they didn't live through it. So I mean, everybody's smart in their own way. But this is like where your age really works in your favor. Because you remember stuff. Okay, well thanks again for agreeing to come on the Facebook group.
