 Hey fellow buddies. Thanks for watching. Okay. I mentioned secret in the title Not clickbait. All right. I really have something that I was like should I share this or should I keep it to myself? And I'm like, I'm gonna share it. Of course. I share everything with you guys. So I had a listing on eBay I had it listed on Mercari and it's kind of been sitting and I've been getting all kinds of messages from People on Mercari saying I just want one doll And I'm like, well, I don't want to list them separately like how much could I really get for one doll? And I'm like, well, what would you give me for one doll? And they're like $7 with free shipping and I'm like No, like I'm not gonna tear apart a 15 doll lot For $7 with free shipping minus fees minus what I paid for the item. It's just not worth it And then I thought After I got I don't know Probably five to ten different messages asking for different dolls from this lot I thought, you know what? I'm just gonna separate them I'm gonna put my price on them where I think that I could make a little money and still be happy and Just kind of see where it goes. It's kind of going to be a test and It was a success. So I'm gonna share that with you guys I'm also gonna share with you what sold on Mercari for the week second week of lockdown. Um, I Just did my video of eBay and Poshmark. What sold the first week of Or I'm sorry the second week of lockdown and I'm doing these a little bit differently I'm showing you everything that I sold just because I kind of want to Give you guys an idea of how things are a little bit different right now With everything that's going on but I sold an item auction style for over $400 So go check out that video if you want to see what it is. Alright, so I'm gonna show you a few items that I sold on Mercari Every item was a toy Every item was a toy toys sell on Mercari And then I'm gonna show you my little secret of what I did. It's not really a secret But I guess I could call it a trick or a tip that I kind of caught myself off guard and learned by Just trying something new and I'm so glad I did because brage sale season this summer I'm gonna show you guys what I'm gonna be looking for. All right. Let's look All right This is not the secret. This is just a bow. Well this shopkins. Oh, let me make sure that I put it on screen share I did not Whoo, I'm glad I checked you guys would have just seen my face for 10 minutes And then I would have been like, oh no, I got to do the video over Okay, so this shopkins items these are shopkins happy family Playset lot and they're just like little shopkins like there's a bed a little like a stove with the accessories And some of these are hard to find I picked these up at a garage sale And you can see like there's little Like little teeny ones. I don't know what those are But there's a toilet. They're so fun. I mean, they're super fun. They're super cute Garage sale it was a bulk buy So I probably got this for a couple bucks and I sold it for 45 dollars and I did offer free shipping on this most of my items on Mercari I do and Build the shipping into the price and then I offer free shipping and I ship my items from pirate ship The next item I sold was this Ideal toys doll. I wasn't sure if this was Tammy or who it was So I just put ideal toys doll and she sold within a day for $19 and free shipping Maybe I underpriced her. I don't know she had three likes But sold in a day I got her at a garage sale in a bulk buy of Barbies and stuff like this and so I had less than a buck in her So I was happy with that The next item is this vintage Sungold Malibu skipper. I had Quite a few of these this one sold again Within a day for $17 and free shipping. I think I had an offer within an hour and I Think I accepted it the next day because I wanted to see if anything else came in overnight and She had five watchers. So Yeah, and she's in pretty good condition. I mean her hair is still pretty nice and $17 free shipping again, I may have undersold it, but I had less than a buck in her This ballerina Mattel Barbie doll again same lot as those other two dolls less than a buck and I sold her for $17 with free shipping All right, are you ready? Here's my secret This lot I had listed for $88. I had it for 100, but I was running a 12% off sale So $88 and the buyer paid shipping on eBay Now I think on Mercari. I had it for $100 with free shipping But you can see I had all these brass dolls and everybody's like I just want the fourth one over in the silver outfit Or I just want the cheerleader or I want the one with the angel shirt and I'm like, oh my goodness I don't want to separate them They're like well you could just put an X through the one that sold and I'm like yeah but then I got to change the listing and basically I was just too lazy to do it and It's been listed for a while and I just kept getting these People on Mercari not eBay on Mercari asking me to do this So I was like, okay, you know what? I'm just gonna take the time and I'm just gonna separate them and Basically, I took each doll and I listed it separately on Mercari and then I cross posted them to eBay They are selling faster on Mercari So I have sold within like an hour I think two of them sold within an hour and the one had sold the next day So I sold three super fast So the first one I sold is this one I thought since they didn't have clothes and you know, they are from 2001 But they don't have any clothes So I didn't think that they had that much value Individually, but I was like, you know, I'll slap $15 with free shipping and just see what happens. This one sold super fast This one sold for 14 with free shipping she had some like weird stuff on her scalp Right here, I don't know if they like put baby powder on it or what but I I did list her a little bit lower for that reason Maybe it's paint. I have no idea, but these were in played with conditions. So $14 Free shipping so basically what it cost me is 10% goes to Mercari and Then it cost me about three dollars and fifty cents to ship and I have less than a dollar in each item so I'm looking at between eight and twelve dollars profit on each one of these dolls This one sold for 18 with free shipping. So already I've made over $30 on just three of the dolls. That's profit guys And I had it listed for 88 and the buyer paid shipping but eBay fees are a little more and there's 15 dolls So if I can average $10 profit per doll That's going to be a hundred and fifty dollars and some of them like this this wrestling girl I have her listed for like 20 something. She's a boxer not a wrestler a boxer And then I also have this little soccer chick Listed a little bit higher because you know, she's got the complete outfit And I think I have the little silver outfit a little higher and you know, these down here are naked So anyway, they're from 2001. So definitely be on the lookout for brats. These are bread and butter items Not gonna be like huge huge money, but I picked these all of these up I think for like five to seven dollars for all of them. So You know, what's that make like 50 cents a doll Maybe less less than 50 cents a doll So definitely be on the lookout great items to pick up at garage sales and even the naked ones sell guys All right, then next stop I know I Took this lot apart also. I'm like, okay, I'm doing the brats I might as well do my monster high dolls. So I went ahead and I separated them out There's ten dolls in the lot. So I listed them individually, I think this one's an ever after high doll this one on the end and then this second one is Still in really the the next two really have their complete outfits and are still in pretty good shape So I listed those a little bit higher, but again, I've got this for 61 dollars on eBay with free shipping So I I'm sorry with the buyer paying shipping I removed that listing and I listed them in my Mercari store And then I went in and cross posted them with list perfectly over to my eBay store, which is super easy So if you have items on Mercari, you can cross post them to eBay from list perfect or with list perfectly super easy almost easier than Going from eBay to Mercari So definitely check out list perfectly if you have not there's a link down in the description of This video if you guys want to see how it works. I walk you through how to list On list perfectly. It's definitely worth every penny in my opinion. It saves so much time. I love it There is a coupon code in my my video my tutorial like how to video of how to use it It's 30% off your first month. So try it for a month. See what you think But yeah that coupons in the description of that video Okay, so I already sold this one and again, she's naked. She's got these hearts on her hand I don't know if she's like a harder to find one her hair is in pretty good shape Mean it needs maybe brushed out a little. I don't know. I didn't brush their hair or clean them up I just listed them as is. I did put messy hair and This sold for $14 and free shipping. So again, I probably made like eight or nine bucks on this doll Here's another Bolo. I picked these up at the same garage sale that I got these Again, I probably had a couple bucks in all of them. I sold them for 48 dollars and the buyer paid shipping So toys are hot during lockdown because people want stuff to entertain their kids So the next thing I did is I took apart this mixed lot of 28 Barbies and Disney princesses and I listed those separately on Mercari also I did do small lots of some of them But some of them like this I think his name is John Smith and Pocahontas and the Mulan I did list those separately and I'll go into my store and show you guys here So this is my Mercari closet so you can see I have listed each One of these dolls like some of them are lots of two, you know, there's a five here You can see here the ones that have sold and Yeah, I'll keep you guys posted on how it goes. I did have some really quick sales This one somebody made me an offer. So I took a 12% discount on that one So it sold for 14 Um, here's some more that I have listed that one sold and That one sold and those are the ones I showed you guys So Yeah, I mean not too shabby if you can pick a doll up for 50 cents and sell it for 15 and Make a profit of like eight to ten dollars to me. I'm I'm good with that So I've got this one listed for 20 this one for 27 this one for 22 and those are like the higher Dollar ones I've been a little busy bee. I listed some of this stuff today and last night, but here's some more of the dolls And this one sold for full asking they didn't even make me an offer So, yeah this one I've got This is a larger lot that I kept together. It's nine Skipper dolls And I've got $90 and free shipping on this. I didn't I just didn't feel like separating them out I don't know. Maybe somebody's gonna say, hey, will you sell me the fourth one over and you know, what if they ask me that? I may just think about it given What I've learned from this experience but For now, I'm just gonna leave it as is and again everything is cross-posted to eBay So both items are in eBay and Mercari so far with the dolls I'm doing better on Mercari. So if you guys have a lot of Barbies or Brats and stuff on eBay, you may consider Transferring some of those to Mercari and just see if you can make the sale eBay I charge shipping to the buyer Mercari I Increase the price of the item and do free shipping because Mercari only takes 10% and then I ship using pirate ship So what do you guys think? Do you like my secret? I Don't know it kind of happened by accident, you know, and it's working out and I Don't know I sold three and 24 hours of the Brats dolls to me I'm like that is crazy like they sold like that and Again, people are buying toys right now. So maybe that has something to do with it But this is what sold on Mercari week two of lockdown Every single item was a toy and I have lots of stuff on Mercari And every single item was a toy. So if I were you and you have toys get those toys listed I love sourcing for toys at garage sales It's one of my favorite things to sell and a lot of people skip over them because they're bread and butter, but I Don't know I like them. They're easy to list and fun to sell So for those of you that have kids and you guys are at home and you're just hanging out because there's no school Maybe you can talk your kids into selling some of their toys I don't know everybody's looking for inventory because you can't go out and source Ask your kids. Hey, can I sell that Bratz doll? I'll give you half the money. I don't know I'm just trying to think outside the box because I know everybody's looking for inventory All right, you guys thanks for watching.
