The Most Expensive Item I've Ever Sold On Ebay

Kevin, so here’s a tip. I like to upcycle and I build miniatures so I use a lot of things like cereal boxes & the plastic clear containers that rolls come in etc. So with that thought I had some rubber bands damage some of my posters so I started using the cardboard rolls that paper towels are on. You can also use the rolls from wrapping paper. I’ve used those as well. ❤

Another great show. Felt like I spent the day outdoors 😊 walking along with a friend.

Loved Paul Harvey as a kid. I'd listen to him while running around with my dad in his old beat up pickup truck. That pause Paul did always made me feel like there was more to come so I wanted to listen to him more. As soon as you said radio and pause I thought of Paul. That pause was iconic for me. Thanks for bringing back such great memories. The best to you and yours.

Shipping tip: I used to ship jewelry and other small items in plastic Easter Eggs, stuffed with tissue so the item couldn't move. Run packing tape around the seam so the egg can't open. Padded bubble mailer, sealed and taped. The eggs are tougher than you'd think, and since they have zero flat surfaces other packages can't land flat on them and bust stuff. Bought at yard sales (or found in the free box!) or after Easter they're dirt cheap, and in many countries eggs are considered lucky. In 15 years or so of eBay selling I never had anything arrive broken, so it works as long as the egg is packed properly and taped shut. (leave a pull tab with the tape folded over so people can get the egg open.)

We use promoted listings for items that don’t have great STR but have a lot of competition. It often gets us a more profitable sale than selling low. We don’t do promoted listings for items with decent STR or that have very little competition.

"tangents" aka "teachable moments" make a teacher go from a great teacher to a PHENOMENAL TEACHER. They take the time to teach something attached and are able to pull it back in. I've had a few of them in my time, most were actually history teachers and men, they were amazing teachers, I learned a lot, they made it very interesting and fun to participate and ask questions. :)

The first time I listened to you , I thought Paul Harvey at the end. We know that you had to be a great teacher in the classroom & you are here on Youtube. Thank you for a great show once again.

The most expensive item I have ever sold on ebay was a Griswold #13 cast iron skillet for $3300. Have sold a few other items for $2000-$2500.

Great video! Thanks for answering questions! I love the pause and the story behind it! Keep up the great videos!!!

I was able to sell one of my comics for $500...that was a good day

Thank you very much for answering my shipping question. It helped a lot!

I just thought the Enemaman was just your mascot you created lol

I sold a railroad bathroom lock & key for 1600. Found it in a box of crap from an auction.

Some great questions! And some great answers!

Great information! Great answers

Thanks for all the answers! Love the end of your shows!!!

Just started on my eBay journey. Sold 2 things really quickly. NJPW t-shirt. Picked it up at Savers for $5. Sold for $25. Then had an old school program from 1969. Wrestling at Fenway Park signed by Killer Kowalski and Bruno Sammartino. They absolutely kill people with fees and shipping. Holy crap! Going to have to figure out more ins and outs.

Hallelujah Kevin!! I loved your answer to my question!!! 🙌✅🎉💯💯

I have only been reselling for a few months and I always put best offer on all my listings but to my surprise nobody has ever made an offer, they always just buy it at full price.

Awesome video Kevin! Always love getting fun tid bits and hearing the paul harvey part is pretty neat. Keep it up.
