Since it's now dead season for yard sales, I am taking time each day to browse listing and see what I can snatch. I also hit the local small ads and a few other online marketplaces.
Here's 3 lots I bought this week.
The first one is a rare Playmobil set (no picture yet I need to pick it up from the post office): it's the always popular Snow White Fairy tale set (Playmobil 4211). Mine is complete with box and background scene.
Second is a Littlest Pet Shop lot with some houses. I don't care much for the houses and accessories, they will be sold locally. I bought this lot specially for Great Dane #577. I sold it within 12 hours of listing, for $45. I paid $20 for the entire lot. My money is made already on that lot and I still have all the other figurines to sell!
Thank You Great Dane! |
Here's another nice lot I bought on eBay: 32 Pet Shop, paid a total of $44 for them. But as you can see, there are many good ones in the lot. Including collie 1676, Dachshund 640 and Siamese 1116.
Easy money with LPS! |
I do limited buying on eBay for resale. I have to work hard to find a bargain that is good enough to cover the expensive cost of Canadian shipping (or shipping from the U.S. to me in Canada.) I can see a person with a really focused area of knowledge (like yours of the Littlest Pet Shop) could do really well this way.
ReplyDeleteI have a slight advantage here: many ebay seller on ebay France either don't ship worldwide or don't take paypal so I find pretty good deal quite often (although less then I did a few years ago)
