Online reselling involves significant hidden costs beyond item prices, including shipping expenses for heavy items, packaging materials, time investment for order fulfillment, and potential losses from damaged or seized products; successful resellers must carefully calculate total costs and manage logistics efficiently to maintain profitability.

It Sold .. But at what COST?Added:
Good morning everybody. Welcome back to the office. Barely morning. It's uh just gone 11. We got an hour left. Um until that is no longer the morning I suppose.
Uh we got a lot of orders to do today.
I'm not in the office tomorrow, which is Wednesday. It's Tuesday today.
Obviously, I got 17 items to do, including a really, really, really heavy one. So, uh we're going to crack on straight away with pulling orders. We're not going to mess around or anything this morning. Um hopefully yesterday you enjoyed the um pulling of the failed items. Still don't know what I'm going to call that segment yet, but we are going to go ahead and do that every single week going forward. So probably the first video of the week um bar Monday cuz obviously that's the car boot video. Um but yeah, let's crack on. I have my um treadmill set up now. Um, I basically just keep the uh the desk up now and um this will be running and whenever I'm at the desk, I'll just jump on instead of turning it on all the time. Um, doesn't use up too much electricity. It's just a little motor and that. So, every time I'm doing like a parcel or an edit, I just did an edit just now. Um, I can just step on here and basically just walk a little bit because although I'm walking up and down the office all the time, it's not actually that many steps. So now I can just get on here, I can do my parcels, I can grab my labels, I can go do that.
Um, and um, yeah, it works out quite nicely. So I just have it on a low setting of like three, I think, kilometers an hour I think it's set to.
Um, so nothing pacey or anything like that. So yeah, we'll just hop off there for now. I do need to um move this somewhere because it does become a bit of a trip hazard. Um, but yeah, right, let's crack on with some orders, shall we? Uh, first thing has been purchased by Sarah. She bought a wave teddy bear pin. I showed these pins the other day.
I'm not sure whether she saw the video and then decided to buy one or whether she already wanted one and it just happened to be that I had some pins. Um, but I got to find where they are. I think they're in here.
There we are.
That's the one she's purchased. A Wade teddy bear collectible pin. Um, most of these are weighed to be honest. I got Disney princesses.
I have the um the cat there, the Felix the cat, which I sold one of the other day. I got loads of those. Uh, what else do I have? I know I have some Peter Pan, some more Disney Princesses, PG Tips, I think.
Some more princesses. And then these ones are Peter Pan Wade right there. So that has sold. Uh these are all nice and cheap. So if you want anything from the store, but you don't want to spend too much money, these are nice and cheap. That cost £38.
Um I am currently, I don't know if it still will be by the time this video comes out next week, running a coupon sale um of 20% off. So basically everything at checkout will automatically have the coupon put on for you. Um so you don't have to ask for any discount or anything. So if you want anything it's going to be 20% off. Um the sale should still be on. Um if it's ended and you want something for 20% off just message me. Um I can sort that out for you. Anyway, on the Lego shelf I've sold a pair of boots. These are like horse riding wellies. Uh Lego shelf is over here.
So, I got two of these. Uh, these ones up here are a little bit more expensive, but these ones here are the ones that have sold.
If I can get them out here.
Oh, knocking into everything today.
There we are. Some igle boots.
They're really tall, ankled, waterproof.
Um, I think they're for riding, but I guess [snorts] farming maybe, but they don't have much grip, so probably slip over on a farm or something. But yeah, pretty good.
They're like new, but they're not actually new. I think they have been used uh very lightly. Uh, but that was £45.
Uh, next up we have the Gino Dampo Milk Fropper. That has gone for £11.99.
Let's go over and see if we can find it cuz it doesn't have a skew. Um, I think it's on the end over here somewhere.
There it is.
Gino Dampo milk froer. There. Does it actually have the It does.
So, this didn't sell for as much as I thought. Gino Dampo obviously doesn't bring big uh big money, even though he's on like morning TV every single day. His stuff clearly is not um worth as much as you would think. Right.
Number 79. We have a Shark brush head.
Number 79.
Uh, that should be around here somewhere.
Number 79.
Running low on these. Remember when this whole unit was full up? It's been a while since I've gone over to the to the Vacman.
Number 86.
And my hat just fell off. That's number 58. So, it's not on that shelf. It's not down there.
Must be around here somewhere.
79. There it is.
Number 79.
Beep.
Little bit ahead and he's uh washing off. So far, all the parcels are nice and easy and uh quick to pack, which is what we like. Um especially when we have 17 to do today.
20 quid on that one. That is actually uh a really cheap one. I don't know why that's gone for so little, but there we are. Uh then in S1, we've sold the Wallace and Grommet uh wrapping paper for £1350.
I thought this would go for more than this, but there we are. So, we've got two brand new rolls and one that's like half used.
Um, it's quite old.
I think it's like 1989. There we go.
Unless that's the copyright year for Wallace and Grommet, but I don't know.
You would think that would update every single year. Um, so I expect that is 1989 wrapping paper, but I could be wrong. Um, there we are. £1350 on that.
Then in I1 or L1, I don't really know the difference. It looks the same to me.
We got a Sony Pocket Radio.
So it's either I1 or L1.
Sony Pocket Radio. Are you in here? Sony Pocket Radio.
H I think it might be an L1.
Although saying that doesn't look like it's an L1 either, so it must be an I1.
[snorts] And this one's rammed full of stuff. So that's fun. Oh, and I'm about to lose the drawer.
Where are you? There we are.
that tiny little thing there.
Right back you go, Bear.
Sony ICFS10.
So, I don't know if that's any good, but there we are. It's sold for 1450. Then number 115. We've sold a Southampton FC vers Chelsea scarf. 115.
Where are we at for 115? Here we are.
There it is.
Number 115. Again, nice and easy to pack, which is nice.
So, that's uh seven. We got about 10 more to do. Uh right on the Fisher shelf, we have a Crupsson espresso machine. Sold for £100. Really nice sale. Got this one recently. It comes with the uh froer on the side there.
It's all complete. I paid £12 for this and it's sold basically instantly for £100.
It's in very nice condition. I fully tested it. Makes a lovely brew. No leaks anywhere, which these have a problem with. Um I think they have um some sort of uh rubber bung or something somewhere and it wears away and then it starts leaking internally. Um and then it obviously comes out the side which is not great. This one does not have such issue which is fantastic. And obviously the uh the froer and all that is all working as well. Right then on the Ben Q shelf we have sold two more of the Mercedes keys.
Yes.
Um oh I had a nightmare this morning. I decided to um to drive to work in my second car, which is a classic Mini. Um nice red and black 1989 classic Mini. I can't find these keys anywhere here. Uh and yeah, so I drove all the way to work, parked up, took the barrier down, got into my space. Oh, it's the last set. Um didn't know that was the last set. um parked up, went to get out of the car, and then I realized I don't have my keys for the office because they're on my main car set of keys. So, I then had to drive all the way home to get my keys to drive all the way back again. Nightmare. But there we are. I'll insert a picture here in case you haven't seen my Instagram um of my second car. I love this car. It's so good. It's um it was a 998cc originally and the last owner had the engine block all done up to a 1380 uh straight gearbox and uh all that good stuff. So, it's very loud and fast, which is lovely. Um yeah, still got a lot of work to do. I got some body work and rust and repaint and want to do the carpets, the sound dampening, all that kind of stuff. But yeah, very exciting. Right. Then on air fry, £15 by the way on the last set of keys to get rid of them. I thought I had more of them, but apparently that's the last one. On the air fry shelf for £67, we have the Alba TV.
I got this one recently as well for £10.
Alberta TV. So, uh, where did I say that this was on? Ah, there it is.
[snorts] It's not the most massive of uh TVs, so it's not too difficult um to ship out, which is nice, but it's not um it's also Why is there a random attachment there for a vacuum cleaner? I don't know. It's also not the easiest because it looks quite small, but then by the time you've got bubbles and card and all that around it, it makes the box need to be a lot bigger than you would expect.
Um, but it'll be fine. I got plenty of big boxes at the moment. So, right, let me move this Coke can out of the way before I spill that on the TV.
Let's turn you around. Let's also put the fan on.
There it is.
Oh, by the way, I don't use AI awful lot because obviously there's a lot of um [sighs] you know, people are funny about it, but I did use AI on my image for this sale.
So, if you'll have a look, this was the main photo that I had, and I didn't have a vintage console to hook up to it to get a nice image for the main photo. So, I ran this through uh I think Gemini or maybe Chat GPT, I can't remember. And I asked for a Sonic design and um there you go. It did that for me. Um I asked it to keep the old look of the TV and everything. Um so, it did that. The TV's fully working, by the way. Um, that's just not a real image. That's edited by AI. So, um, whether you guys approve of that use of AI or not, I don't I don't know. Uh, but it made the, uh, the sale go through quicker. So, uh, good for me in my op in my opinion. Anyway, next up on the Lego shelf, we have the Lego yellow pot, tub drawer, whatever.
It's not that one.
It is not that one.
It is this one with the drawers.
There we are. The double drawer Lego container there.
Much harder to come by than the normal liftoff lid. Um, obviously you can stack these um in any which way you want and still be able to access the drawers, whereas the other ones, the lids, the tops come off, so you have to unstack everything. Uh, much better designed.
Um, and they sell a lot easier as well.
Um, anyway, that sold for £26.
Then on the air fry shelf again, we have uh a set of four J&J plates on the air fry shelf down the end here.
Got quite a bit of room on this shelf now that that TV is gone.
That's nice.
Right, I'm looking [snorts] for four plates.
Huh? Where are they? I don't know.
Are they at the back? There they are. Of course, they're at the back hiding.
Here we go. That can now move. Excuse me. Four of these uh J&J Pyrex plates there. Very good condition. Actually, I don't actually know what these have sold for. Let's have a look.
They have sold for a whopping £18.75.
Not too shabby.
Right. Then on Zed, we've got a uh handle, a G-Tech handle. I think this is the one.
Hopefully, it's the one cuz it's the only one in there. It's a black G-Tech handle.
Yes. Uh that sold for 15. Then in L, we have a brush head for 18.
L brush head.
Dyson brush head.
I actually sent out the wrong brush head from this drawer the other day. So, one of them being shipped back and I'm going to do a switch with the guy. Uh, but that is definitely the one that's going out this time.
This is the problem with putting multiple different um items of the same brand in one bucket. It It just like recipe for disaster in the long run. But there we are. Uh 134. Oh, we have a uh we have a top 134.
It's like a brown color I'm looking for.
Right down the bottom there.
Little sweat top, whatever that is. Knit knitted pullover right there. That sold for £750.
Right, we got one more small item and then we got the big one. Uh, so for £10 we have a broken brush head. Uh, number 25 is spares and repairs on this one.
Number 25. Here we are.
So, it's very clean, but unfortunately the uh the brush head has seized. So, it needs to be opened up and um either lubricated or a blockage needs to be removed. Um something I don't have time to do um on my end. So, unfortunately, that's just gone for cheap. Um but that was explained.
So, hopefully that's not a problem.
Right, last but not least, I'm not going to get this one off the shelf because it's bloody heavy. Excuse the language.
Um, but I have sold and need to ship out today this monstrosity here.
The Paverly.
If I drop this on my toe, I don't have a toe left. You know what I mean? It's that heavy off there, please.
Right. So, this is a coffee bean grinder.
Weighs an absolute ton cuz that is like cast iron or steel or something. And then we have the um the hopper as well. So, not only do we have a really heavy base, I have to protect the plastic hopper because otherwise it's going to roll over in the uh in the post and this is going to crack crush this or crack this and then that's going to be an even bigger problem uh for the customer. Um this is all fully operating by the way, all fully working. Um, this is obviously going to like a new cafe or some sort of um coffee van or something where they can't afford a brand new one because these will set you back £800 £1,000. And um they've got a fully working one here for £150 uh plus £10 postage, which I will add is very very undercharged. This should be about 30 postage cuz of the weight. Um but there we go. That's my fault for not um double-checking the drafts that my listister does. Um but she was not aware that this weighed so much um in the first place. So um bad communication on my part. Um it's completely my fault on that. But there we are. That does weigh an absolute ton. I'm going to leave it there so it doesn't get in the way. I'm going to do all the smaller parcels. I'm pretty sure everything here can go yod or maybe bar the TV.
Um depending on how big that box ends up being. Um maybe these two longer items as well will have to go every um and then obviously I'll take those down, get them out of here and move on to the bigger items and then they will go to every today.
I'm hoping these boxes aren't too big because like I said, I made the mistake of driving here in my 1989 classic Mini and it's tiny. So, I can only fit a certain size box on the passenger seat.
Um, I could use the rear, but getting stuff into the back is like near impossible. Um, just the way that the car is designed, there's no easy access to the back seats really. Um, but there we are. Um, I need to crack on now. This is a lot of work. 17 items in total, I think. 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 and 17 down the end. Like I said, this has to be out today because tomorrow I'm not here. Um, and these all have to be out tomorrow and I'm not here tomorrow, so they have to go out today. Does that make sense? I hope that makes sense. Anyway, thank you all for watching. If you would like to scan this here, it will take you to all my links. Uh, Discord as well. I always forget Discord. uh Instagram, Tik Tok, crosslist.com where you can use code sloth one capital letters for 30% off and obviously um the energy drinks over there. Holy energy.
Um if you want any of that energy, electrolytes, milkshake, and iced tea. Yes, I got them all this time.
Hey, it's a lot to remember. Uh, but yes, thank you all for watching. There will be a video tomorrow in case you're wondering. It just won't be filmed tomorrow for me. Um, but there we are.
Thank you all for watching. Please do like and subscribe and I will see you guys in the next one. It's time for me to jump on the treadmill, print some labels, and do some packaging fun.
