Overwhelmed

 I've definitely overdone it on the sourcing for resale. I suppose I just got over confidant in my ability to source stuff that sells and that I can get it so cheap. 

Take for instance the Live Auction House. I go to the preview and when I see something I like I write it down, item number and where it is located in the room. As luck always has it's way, I usually get it. But, the Auction House is notorious for ding multiple lots. Meaning, if I like an item in #8063, they are more than likely to group it with two other boxes and I end up with 3 times what I originally wanted. A set of

blue Chinese Figurines ends up with boxes of clown planters, mugs, and candle holders! A lot of Barbie Christmas Ornaments is lotted up with a box of plushes. But what else so I find wedged down in the plushes? An original signed Statue called Evening Rose that is worth MONEY. Like 200$ My cost, 3 dollars. I kid you not. Six or seven Barbie ornaments and this knock out Statue.

It just needs to find the right home. I have put a BOOST on facebook to see if I can find the right home for it. I got a MALTA knight in one of a multiple lot that I was able to sell for 95$ boosting it on FBMkt.

So, sales have been consistant, maybe one a day. I had several days this week with no sales which concerns me. I believe there are a lot of resellers taking advantage of the free market. Lots of competition as is evident when I go into a Goodwill. Hard to find much of value. I much prefer the auctions.

So I have way too much stuff to list. I need to stop buying so much.

Today I went to Tiny Town and got another load of stuff. A painted Pony, which last week I sold within 24 hours. A tea set and some beer steins. An the major coup, two porcelain Chinese statues. I got into a price war with a woman who I happened to meet when picking up my treasures.

I am overwhelmed by the mountain of stuff I have to list.

So, no more buying....until the next auction and I get the holsters that at the other Auction House.
