What I disliked the most about selling on Ebay was the haggling. Its one of the reasons I never really liked to have garage sales and eventually, I stopped doing them. I would rather donate than go back and forth for a few dollars at a time. Either buy it or don't!
That being said, I was able to clear out a bunch of things that I knew I didn't want to wear anymore, my daughter would have no interest in, and someone else can love them. But I don't think Ebay will be any kind of regular thing for me. I don't see how people do that as a full-time gig.

I get it, Gina. I think about selling often, but then just dump everything in a box and drag it to the thrift store. I'm not sure I could deal with the haggling...and the shipping, etc.
ReplyDeleteI feel the same exact way! People are rude. Period. I have started schlepping stuff to family reunions, offering up things to remember me by...will they sell it? Maybe, but it's outta my hands (happily).

ReplyDeleteHi Gina. I read you regularly but never comment so here goes! I’d rather give things away but to folks who really need the item than want to resell. I had one garage sale in my life when I relocated to another state and had to pay for the move myself. Ugh- folks started coming an hour early and grabbing things. Never again! Im a widow of 28 years- hard to believe. My youngest was just 8. She’s 36 now with 2 kids. My husband had a heart attack too- he was 48. Nan

ReplyDeleteI feel the same way about garage sales. On Ebay I always make sure I toggle off "make offer" and then I don't have to deal with the hagglers. As always your meals sound wonderful.
ReplyDeleteHave a fabulous day Gina!
