eBay Consignment Store Behind the Scenes Packing Materials - Huge Job

[RubberWilbur]

Packing peanuts are my life's pet peeves. I despise them and when I receive a box with them in it I curse the world. I hate those things.

@RubberWilbur they do get in the way - im going to get a elephant to eat them. lol

You guys rock.... love this vid. managing boxes and packing materials is a big job. Love love our little town out there.

Great video.....you have a super looking operation. Packing supplies can be a killer for sure. It definately a tough nut in this economy to make a buck.

[PickersInc11]

@Panzerfeust We have tried using used boxes from other business's, however, the increase size requires more physical space. In addition, the time to find the box needed increases, so your payroll cost goes up more than the savings on the box. Utilizing used packing peanuts, packing paper, and bubble wrap work well if you can find a steady source. -Vince

Packing supplies are eating me alive in cost!!! Customers don't know what we really have involved in shipping cost!! Not to mention ebay & paypal fee's. And don't forget uncle sam is getting his part also... Doesn't leave much profit for the little guy!!

@ncautoman57 -yes and its getting worse as the days go by - Jack

How often does Marty McFly come into the store. How cool to see the back to the future car drive around. Cool operation

[PickersInc11]

@in4fun - its a lot of work for sure - Jack

[PickersInc11]

@in4fun Your right, our small town of Chesterton does resemble the town in Back to the Future (one of my favorite movies btw). We still haven't seen Marty Mcfly, but I am hoping to get the chance to sell the Delorean Time Machine online one day! -Vince
