I sold two items since my last update, but made a mistake with one of them I sold. I sold the pair of shoes which were Nike’s for $47.50 plus shipping and ended up making $9.47 of profit off them.
The second item I sold was the Dyson vacuum. Unfortunately, I didn’t notice it was missing the rolling device on it when I bought it. I had been using it to clean my house till I sold it, but the person I sold it to said it didn’t work for them. In this situation I’m not going to worry about this and refunded their money, and wished them luck on finding the missing piece.
I learned a lesson about double checking the pictures of the items I buy online before completing a purchase. The vacuum never had the roller when I looked back at the original pictures. If I would have taken more time to compare it to others like it I would have noticed. This type of mistake happens and I’ll try my best to make fewer of them over time. As well, it cost me and additional $1.25 to refund them on the purchase. This is the most I’ve lost on one item since starting.
I currently need to reinvest $38.47 to be fully invested as of the end of the month. Not sure what I’m going to focus on for this amount to keep me moving forward. All of the sheets and duvets I’ve bought are receiving lots of views, but have yet to sale. This is likely my best course of action to have a high probability of consistent sale.
