Auctions Rock, If You Have the Time
Last weekend I was at my friend’s house. It was her birthday and she had declined going to dinner or accepting a gift. All she wanted was for me to sit with her and sort through boxes and boxes of papers and accumulated miscellany she needed to go through; yet had been unable to motivate herself to actually do.
So, that is how I spent my Saturday night. It wasn’t a bust, though. My daughter adores her girls and the oldest gave Gigi a “makeover”. I got to spend a lot of time just relaxing and chatting with my friend – and sorting of course. Also, I ended up with a pile of free meal coupons she could not use. Her kids get them from time to time at school, but since she had 4 kids, one coupon for a restaurant doesn’t do her any good.
She also gave me a pair of heat detectors she used to have in her house in Illinois. She does not need them in her current house and said she was going to try and sell them on eBay, but is just too busy to actually get it accomplished. She gave them to me and told me to sell them and keep what I get, but I’m having the same issue with time. I don’t have enough of it.
Lucky for me, there is an iSold It store right up the road in Palm Harbor. They handle eBay sales for you. All you do is stop by to drop off your items and give them the basic details. They manage the auction, ship the item, and give you the money. I’ll probably try to stop by with the heat detectors this weekend.
I usually give my stuffs to one of my friends who’s really into eBay. he sells it for as much as he can, and he keeps 25% of the full price. Fair deal.
iSold It has scammed hundreds of people out of millions of dollars. Read about the corruption in the eBay drop-off store markets at http://www.amitheonlyone.org.
