Hey fueco, how exactly are you following your general income/ sales total etc. Is everyone just using ebays tracker, or making up your own spreadsheet? If so, any chance someone can share? I really need to start following for tax purposes etc. ThanksWord...
I've got stuff I paid $75-100+ for that has been sitting around for a while that I know will sell eventually. It matters little difference in the grand scheme of things whether I make $10 or $100 off an item, as long as I'm consistently creating a positive cash flow that makes it all worth my time.
Right now, year to date, my sales total is 203% of my cost. Considering that I have 450+ items on Ebay right now, that means I'm doing pretty well for what I've actually sold. My weekly income has been creeping steadily upwards (I would be above the median income in just about any area except where I actually live), and I fully intend to make a shitload of money doing this.
In short, don't worry about cash on hand. You're not going to make a lot of money right from the start, but you have to start somewhere. Borrow, use credit, whatever it takes.
