Make This a Chapter in My Book...

Growing up, everytime I had a good, philosphical thought, I'd shout "Make this a chapter in my book!" Well, it certainly is not a book, but it's close enough.

I've decided to document via blog all the random concepts I've come up with over the years. Having turned 21 not more than two weeks ago, I'm pretty much ready to take on the world - blog style. I really tried to fit in to the "my boyfriend dumped me, and I got a great deal on this plus I just sewed an entire wardrobe" world of blogging, but that didn't go over too well.

These posts are loaded with random (sometimes useless) facts that you can hopefully gather inspiration from! ...or atleast, a conversation starter or two. Give it a read, so that you won't be tempted to judge the "proverbial" book by its cover... or in this case, the "proverbial" blog by its URL.

Chapter 19: Ebay Makes Me Queen of the Internets

If you can remember back to my earlier post about ebay: Chapter 12 "The Almighty Ebay..." Then you will be prepared for today's post about how Ebay makes me queen of the internets! So i was selling a small Coach bag thing... By small, I mean this thing can only hold a few papers! I had it listed at $15 bucks with a fee of $10 for shipping/handling. Total list price: $25.00

Of course, you got those ebay "low-ballers" who offer you $10 dollars for the purse if you take away shipping and handling.... Um, how 'bout no?

As the bidding came to an end, I look to see the total selling price (including shipping) and you all will not believe it...

$89.00!!

Yes, this officially makes me queen of the internets. Like is said before, you guys. Ebay is a gold mine just waiting to be bidded on! My challenge to you: Take something that's worth meh... not much to you, list it, and see what you get for it. Then, post up the difference between what you thought it was worth and what it actually sold for... (Example: $25 (what i thought it was worth) - $89 (what it sold for) = $64 (profit gained))

PROFIT people, think PROFIT!

My Book

  • Why?
      Why you ask? Not sure. I've always wanted to write down the randomness I think of, and even more so I would love to see who agrees with me and the other alternatives to my ideas.
  • Because?
      Because you ask? Because I want to know what YOU think! Do you agree? Can you relate? Am I totally off the deep-end? Please, feel free to post your comments and opinions; and, who knows, maybe I'll feature them in the next blog post!
