Made $400 from eBay

I still need to subtract some mailing costs and I have one item that I offered on 2nd chance, but I'm doing pretty well on eBay.

The original post claimed the average household has 16 unused items worth $2,200. Well I have more than 16 items but so far I've sold a bit more than that. More of them I've posted here with pictures. A few I didn't.

Right now, I'd estimate my total haul at around $400. The last two auctions were my best ever, EVER.

I'm still amazed at how much they went for. It's almost sinful. I only wish I could say that it was because I had foresight to purchase the item knowing that I could sell it for a profit. But no, it was just dumb luck. I started a new hobby, started buying anything and everything to do with it, never used these, sold them 5 years later. The good thing is they were small and didn't take up much room to store for the last 5 years.

Did anyone else take the challenge? How did you do?

I love eBay but I doubt I'll ever do anything other than sell my own collections off through them. I just can't see me being a power-seller.
