Selling...

My last item sold went smoothly...I received the payment a few days after the ebay buyer bought the JENSEN Multi-Input AV/RF Modulator, Model: JV649 and I sent the order today. I left a positive feedback to this eBay buyer because there was great communication, the payment was received, and (hopefully) the order will rrive on time. Therefore, I will receive a positive feedback, too...hopefully the eBay buyer will give me a positive feedback.


Now I have 2 more orders that worry me a bit. The one that worry me the most is a video tape I wanted to purchase since yesterday. This morning I bought a COUNTRY LINE DANCING video tape I wanted to give my mom as a present. I paid $10 extra than what the seller was asking for so I can have this video tape sent out thru NEXT DAY delivery. But it looks like the seller didn't send it out on time and that the item may not be sent thru NEXT DAY delivery. The reason I need this NEXT DAY delivery is because I'm going on vacation this Wednesday to visit my parents and won't be back in 2 weeks. Hopefully, this seller will send me this item on time so I can have it on Tuesday.


The other transaction I'm worry about is for an actual sell I did. About 4 days ago, I was excited when I received an e-mail saying that somebody had bought my used HP PhotoSmart M417 5.2 Megapixel Digital Camera. I was specific in regards to the camera's description, current condition, and payment terms. I sent the eBay Buyer a few messages asking him for the payment since he had asked me to send him an invoice. Hopefully this buyer will send me the money before I leave on vacation and then I can send him/her the digital camera. In case this eBay buyer doesn't make a "move" on this item, I may need to find out how to re-list this item on my eBay list. If anybody knows how to cancel an eBay sell, please let me know what to do because I'm really new on this issue.

Selling...


I'm really happy today, I have sold another item. This was the JENSEN Multi-Input AV/RF Modulator, Model: JV649 I posted last week...it sold in 5 days. This AV/RF Modulator is necessary if you don't have AV inputs on your TV or VCR and therefore cannot use the AV Cables. This allows you to connect your TV or VCR to other electronics like your DVD player, video cameras, and any Game Entertaiment Center (like Nintendo sets, XBOX set, etc etc etc). Even though this item was hardly used, it's in great working conditions. I didn't have all the manuals & accesories, I was able to sell it just with its power adapter.

The only issue I have right now is that the eBay buyer who bought this AV/RF Modulator from me didn't send me the payment right away. Basically, this eBay buyer doesn't have a PayPal account and he/she has to send me a Money Order...hopefully, it will arrive really soon so I can process this order and send it out ASAP. Although this eBay buyer has 100% positive feedback, I really can't trust many people...therefore, I rather wait for payment & cash it out first before I can really send this order to this eBay buyer. I'm really excited for this new sell, which took only 5 days after I post it for the 1st time. I hope my other items get sold quickly just like this one did. If everything goes good, I may really take eBay as a 2nd source of income...something that I really need for many financial and personal reasons.

If anybody has any questions or concerns in regards to my current listing, please let me know. If you have any advice for me in order to turn my eBay hobbie into a source of income, I will really appreciate it. I want to earn some extra cash and I really want to do it thru eBay.

Selling...


I'm very, very happy today...I've made my 1st eBay sale since last year. When I started my eBay listing last year, I've only sold 2 small items: a Teddy Bear and a set of candles. These 2 items had sold quickly and I was very glad about it, but then I wasn't very lucky since nothing was selling and I got dissaponted very easy and fast. Now that I re-took this listing, I already sold a VHS video within 3 days of creating this listing. I've just added a new item...an HP PhotoSmart M417 Digital Camera. I really hope this digital camera sells quickly. I'm thinking on adding some clothes, little decorations, and some other items but I need to fix some pictures first. Let's see how this goes...

New Listing



I'm Back Again!!!


I had set aside my blog and my eBay listing for a few days, but I'm finally back here and I hope I don't leave these two all alone again. Finally, I just added a few items into my eBay listing. I'm trying out with some VHS videos to see how it goes...I've included four (4) VHS videos: Silence of the Lambs, Hannibal, The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King, and The Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers; although, I'm thinking on adding some other things tomorrow after I try to upload some pictures I want to put on the listing. I have a few body lotions to sell, some electronics, some simple home decór to sell, and some other few things I want to sell and want to sort of get rid off. Please visit me at My eBay listing: maroleleon and let me know what you think...or buy something, I would greatly appreciate LOL. Let's see what happens in the next few days.

YA VOLVÍ!!!


Volví a este blogcito y a mi lista de eBay despues de un tiempo de abandono...pero ya estaré más pendiente ya que de verdad quiero sacarle lo más que pueda. Bueno, finalmente ya empesé a hacer mi lista de ventas en eBay que tanto habia abandonado. Empesé la lista con unas cuantas peliculas en VHS, las cuales son: Silence of the Lambs, Hannibal, The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King, y The Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers. Claro que además de estos videos de VHS, tengo en mente añadir más cosas en esta lista...decoraciones de casa, electrónicos, lociones de mano y otras cositas más que son pequeñeces pero que quiero vender para poder deshacerme de ellas y ganarles un dinerito jejejeje. Mañana de seguro añadiré más cosas despues de que monte y arregle unas cuantas fotos que quiero montar en la lista de eBay. Ya les contaré más acerca de las otras cosas que quiero añadir a mi lista, así que visitenme a mi lista de eBay: maroleleon y comprenme alguito...no sean malitos jejejeje.

New Template...

I really had to change the template in this blog. I was having problems with the customized templates I added before...templates that were not recommended 100% by Blogger. Now that Blogger is offering more templates and customize services, I'm better off using them instead of going outside and looking for templates. What do you think???

On new Blog Directory...

Besides To2Blogs, now this small blog is in Blogarama. I hope this helps me with the incomming traffic to this Blog. I really want people's feedback in regards to eBay and how should I approach it better so I can have a better chance of selling.

Talking about eBay, I'm still kind of stuck still. I need to gather all the things I want to sell right now and enter them into my eBay listing. Lately I'm been working a lot and I have limited Internet access, so I've been leaving my listing aside. Hopefully, I'll get to it tomorrow morning. If anything, I will blog about it.

A while...

It's been a while since I wrote on this blog. My main reason has been the lack of time, but I've also forgotten a bit about eBay. I've been wanting to re-invest on my eBay dream, but I had no time or money to do so. Well, I've regain my interest in doing a little bit of money through eBay.

Right now I'm in the need of money...I really can deny that. I'm going to get a 2nd job right know in order to save some money and to invest some. It's more than obvious I want to get back to selling some things through eBay. I do have a few things to post right now on my eBay list but I have to create a scrap listing outside eBay before doing the actual list I have in mind. I want to start my small listing the right way.

I must admit I bought a few thing right now in order to have the account active. I've also bought these few thing in order to gain some positive feedback...it's very important on eBay to get positive feedback because it gives you more reliability and other eBay users can evaluate a member’s reputation. The more positive comments and feedback you have, the more you atrack people into your listings.

Well, going to back to what I bought lately, I must admit I bought a Taebo 8-Minute Workout video tape from a eBayer named cosis84...I must admit the price and communication were great, but the deivery was really slow. I need to loose some weight, so I need some encouragement while I gain some positive feedback at eBay. I've also bought some pins & buttons. I'm a big Harry Potter fan, so I bidded on 2 Harry Potter-buttons (or pins) that were really cool: one with Sirius Black's prison face (which comes from the Harry Potter & The Prisoner of Azkaban movie) and the other one says MUGGLE with a great red & black background. The picture on your left side is from both buttons pinned already on one of my favorite hats...I do apologize if the picture is a bit blurry but I'm still practicing my picture-taking tactics with my new camera. I bought the Sirius Black pin through Mermaid Ink and the MUGGLE pin I bought it from Just another Sunset...both eBayers were really great with the pricing, communication, and delivery.
Well, I hope this is really a new beginning for this blog and for my eBay journey. I really need to earn some money, so I better learn how to master eBay. Of course, I will write every detail of this ongoing learning and I hope some of you out there can give me some tips on how to be a better eBayer. Keep on blogging and keep on bidding...

Cambios...

Confieso que estoy tratando de cambiar el template de este blog. La verdad que no entiendo porque en EXPLORER el blog se vé medio descuadrado, pero por medio de FIREFOX pues todo el blog se vé perfecto. Quien sabe explicarme el porque de este descuadre???

Who undertands these templates?
Quien me puede ayudar con esto de los templates?
Si alguien sabe de esto de los templates, denme una clasecita ya que quiero perfeccionar el look de este blog. Además de seguir escribiendo acerca de mis experiencias en eBay, pues de verdad quiero perfeccionar el arte de los templates.
Gracias por la ayuda...

Y volver...


After such a long, long...very long...time, I'm writting back in this dusty blog. It's been a long time but there's been some ups & downs on my eBay experience. Right now I'm in the downs but I think this might change soon.

Confieso que empesé vendiendo un par de cositas y me emocioné al hacerlo. Pero definitivamente llegué a un punto de estanque...no he podido vender más nada. Nosé si es que estoy vendido cosas equivocadas ó si es que no estoy promoviendo mi listado de eBay lo suficiente, pero algo saldrá por ahí y podré empezar a vender otra ves. Hace poco me compré un libro sobre eBay pero confieso que no me lo he terminado. Tengo que volver a empesar para así poer palpar los verdaderos trucos de ventas en eBay.

Bueno, creo que escribiré un poco acerca de mis frustraciones en los próximos post. Creo que tambien retomaré la lectura del libro de eBay que compré para así infomarme mejor. Y creo que tambien hablaré de mis experiencias de la página eBay que manejo en mi trabajo. Yes, I must admit that I also handle the eBay Store fo the company I work with, but it's been also a slow experience. I hope I can positively discover that it pays to bid...
