With the new eBay store and me going around from auctions and thrift stores and just finding deals to list things I thought it might be a cool idea to make a post about it.

With the first post, I figured I write about the couple of items I was able to get nice and cheap from the online local auction last night. With the auction, it is mostly amazon and Walmart returns that get bought in truckloads and sold. Now I have thought about buying a pallet or two but I first need to do research on places to buy them that are legit and getting more capital.


If you have been or would like to check out my eBay store head on over to this link. I have been stocking the store daily with toys and media with some vintage items. I plan to have a full variety of items.


Pokemon Cards

The first thing is some things are open and some are not but this first item was a given with an open deck of pokemon cards. Now with this, I was actually hoping the booster pack was still in but turns out they don't even give boosters in these decks.

So it is open and a deck of 60 cards it actually is only missing 4, Not bad and the one card not missing is the holo card so that is a plus. This card is likely to get put right into a cardholder and be saved for a later time or posted and left for $2 CDN. The current price is around 0.50 cents.

I haven't gone over the rest of the cards but I see if I sell the cards in singles I can likely make about $3-4 so not a huge profit but some and the energy cards will go to my kid.

Now with that it also came with an online deck code, I am not 100% sure if this code is used so I will list it as-is and Unknown if used will for 4$ as it goes for $7 and I have no way of telling if it is used or if the buyers uses it and says they didn't.

it came with a few other things but I am likely to give them to my kids, It was just a play mat and some counters. Why pokemon don't use dice yet is beyond me.

With that, I spend $1.75 CDN on this and may make a profit of $5 Not really worth it but was worth the small risk to get a booster pack.


EarPods

When it comes to reselling and my research is apple products old broken new open or anything sells. Don't ask me why I can't stand apple but that's personal preference, right?

So the auction has a load of apple earpods these are the wired ones that have the lightning cable. I am guessing the store is no longer selling these so they got loads in warehouses.

These are new inbox so that is nice as sealed products will sell for me and faster. I see these selling for about $20 CDN each so my plan as I want to unload them pretty quick is to go 14.88. I may even put one on auction at $5 start and see where it goes, I was able to pick these up for $4 each so if I can sell for $14 I am in profit about 7$ after fess.


Marvel Legends

Now we can get to the toys, it was my main focus when I wanted to start this store as I know toys sell to a wide range of people and vintage and new in box are a hit. Plus I was a small collector and it was a help in starting my inventory.

The marvel legends are one of the best selling new in box toys, They are such a wide range of them and new ones coming all the time so that means old ones are limited and with kids opening them they get even more limited,

I actually have one or two other legends guys waiting to sell but this one I can see goes for about $25 CDN so that means anything under $8 was a good double on my money.

I was actually able to grab this one for $5 so I am thinking I can make a profit of about $17 after eBay fees. Yes, eBay takes quite the fee.


Funko Pop

The last thing I know is most of you have been funko with the NFT coming to wax and just how huge they are with collectors. I am not a fan nor even really know much about BTS but I know funko sells and BTS sells. I was able to grab this for $2.25 and it seems to sell for $15-20.

I actually bend the box a little so it has dropped my profit and I plan to list for $11.88 now. It sucks cause I could have made $10 in profit off this but ride my bike to get these and I had my backpack too full. I will know for next time to bring an extra bag.

What are your thoughts? Should I bring these items over to hivelist? I am not sure if there would be an interest in them on hive. I would be able to offer a 10% discount on hive light so maybe I will list a few things and see how it goes.
