Many eBay sellers find their inventory at thrift stores. Thrifting can be overwhelming and confusing, especially if you shop in very large thrift stores. Thrift store shopping requires a lot of looking and rummaging, which can be tiring and time-consuming.

So, if you're new to thrifting, here are a few pointers to help you make the most of a visit to a thrift store.Choose the best time to go. Thrifting requires energy and concentration.

Shipping is the most important part of any EBay transaction. Without shipping your transaction can't be completed. The right shipping practices will help to ensure that your customer receives their item in perfect condition. This will make the difference between a happy and unhappy customer, as well as negative or positive feedback.Remember to use proper packaging. If you are shipping multiple items or pieces, wrap each item individually to ensure proper protection. Pack your package with bubble warp or packing peanuts. Because packing peanuts may move while being shipped, it is a good idea to pack the peanuts in tightly so that you can hear no rattling. You can also use new rigid side boxes. These boxed have corrugated sides, offering maximum stability and strength, and will ensure that y

For the past year now I have seen so much finger pointing on who we should blame for the real estate market issues. I have been wanting to write an article about this for a long time now but Sharon Simms blog post at -we-have-the is what really inspired me to take the time to write out my thoughts. Sharon’s post and many of the replies were very honest and inspiring. So here is my take on it.BLAME BUYERSI truly think buyers should be responsible for their own actions. Did you really think you could hold onto and afford a $500,000 home on a $50,000 salary and no down payment? It doesn’t take rocket science to see that this was going to happen with buyers that got funded for these loans. Sure they were enticed with interest only, no down payment, arm loans but any buyer that took

We all know that 2007 was a challenging year in which to sell a home.But what about 2008? Can it be a better year?Absolutely. But first you have to know what buyers are looking for, and then you have to be willing to give it to them.Chicago isn’t unlike much of the country: Home sales were down last year. But remember, sales were down from historic highs. Homeowners still sold plenty of Chicago condos, single family homes and investment properties in 2007. Buyers were still out there looking for homes.This will be the case in 2008, too. It won’t be a record-setting year for home sales, in Chicago or across the nation. But it won’t be a dismal year, either. Plenty of buyers are out there. Plenty of home sales will take place.Sellers, though, need to realize that buyers are more patien

In order to sell a home in this market you must have a property that is in good condition and well priced. But one area that is often overlooked is presentation.Professional home stagers have been receiving more business and have helped increase the likeliness of a home selling. Prospective buyers want to be able to picture themselves in a home. A house with too many personal items or unique features will make it hard for a buyer to see themselves in the home. In order to cater to the variety of potential buyers, you should make your home as neutral as possible. This would include neutral furniture, paint, artwork, etc. You don't want to offend any prospective buyers.

HomeGain recently announced the addition of a helpful new tool…the Home Sale Maximizer. This user-friendly resource guides sellers in identifying repairs needed to maximize their overall home sale. Agents can also make great use of this tool for setting listing prices, and showing sellers how they can increase the salability of their home. Louis Cammarosano, General Manager of HomeGain adds, "With the addition of Home Sale Maximizer to its product suite, HomeGain now offers consumers the ability to get a instant free home valuation without registration as well as information on how to make their homes worth more."Here is a quick run down of how the Home Sale Maximizer can benefit sellers and agents:Identify key repairs Use checklist to prioritize home improvementsDetermine which project

Most Crofton residents won’t be affected by the new tax bill signed by President Bush yesterday, but anyone who purchased or refinanced their home in the past 2–3 years could be, if the loan balance is higher than today’s selling price.  That situation is known as a “short sale”. Homeowners were taxed on any amount forgiven by a lender in a short sale negotiation or foreclosure, in the past, creating a tremendous financial burden.  Now, under The Mortgage Relief Act (click here), the loan amount written off by your lender will no longer be considered taxable for debts forgiven between Jan. 1, 2007, and Dec. 31, 2009.   “When you’re worried about making your payments, higher taxes are the last thing you need to worry about,” President Bush said. “This is going to make a happy holiday for many homeowners.” Senator George Voinovich, R-Ohio, who authored this legislation, said &ld

Sellers: Is Your Agent "Tech Savvy"?Since many recent surveys have shown that between 78% and 85% of buyers come from the Internet and are already well-versed in technology, it only makes sense that you choose an agent who knows how to reach these potential buyers. In other words, if your agent doesn't even know what a "blog" is, maybe you should rethink your strategy of hiring the agent your father used to use. If an agent relies strictly on newspaper ads for new business, she/he may be headed the way of the dinosaur in the next few years.The real estate business is dynamic - constantly evolving. Technology is not only a tool in our industry, it is the driving force of the industry. A year in the life of a real estate agent is similar to a year in the life of a dog - as we tend to gray and age at a rate of at least 7 to 10 times as fast as others with "normal jobs". On a daily basis we see changes in market, population, banking, legal, insurance. Deeply entrenched in these changes a

The original thought for this post has developed to the point that I think in the interests of brevity, it will be necessary to break it up into two, possibly three, posts. The first part will cover the very basic issue of what types of broker representation are available to buyers and sellers of homes, land and other real estate in the state of Georgia. Generally buyers and sellers fall into

In a post on real/diaBlog, we talked about how Fannie Mae has begun charging an up-front fee of 0.25 percent on all new mortgages bought or guaranteed by them. Freddie Mac will also begin assessing a similar fee. On a $400K mortgage, that's an extra $1,000 in fees. Based on the fact that Fannie and Freddie own or guarantee over 40 percent of mortgages outstanding, this will directly affect a huge number of future home buyers. But will it really effect buyers? Some buyers will have the additional money to pay for this fee. Others may not. Those that do not have the money may wait to buy, unless someone else will pay for the fee. Those that do have the money may still buy, but they will also want someone else to pay for it. That someone else is the seller. Much like seller concessions were non-existent in the boom days, but quickly became a tradition once the market turned, the passing of the buck for this fee from buyer to seller will become tradition as well. Sellers will see th

 House on the market too long?  Don't know why? Feel like you have the worst house in the area because it is not selling? Or do you blame your agent? HINT:  -------Lower your price. This just might help!!!  If your home is already in the best condition possible, and you've already raised the commission and offered the buyer a premium, you may have to accept the fact that your home is overpriced. That doesn't mean someone, some where, wouldn't offer you your dream price. You may just grow old waiting for that day to come. Lets take a closer look at todays MLS numbers (El Dorado, Merced (Western), Placer, Sacramento, San Joaquin, Stanislaus and Yolo counties).  Here are a few averages, keeping in mind that these numbers do not reflect the listings that were taken off market or withdrawn/cancel and then put back on either by the same agent or by another agent.  So these number are probably lower than the reality.The 20

Effective January 1, 2008 there will be a new Agency Disclosure Form for Buyer's and Seller's to be aware of and to sign.  On January 1, 2007 a new and improved form was released this form clarifies that form.  If you have been on the market to buy or sell residential property then your agent (broker) should have given you and explained this form to you.  It clarifies your rights and what it is you can expect from your agent. What you can expect them to do and to say to protect your interests.  If you haven't bought or sold property in a while you might want to take a moment to read the new form.  This in important and can effect the outcome of negotiations that you have when buying or selling. There are several clarifications on this new form.  The first is a more concise and detailed definition of what a Broker's Agent is, and who they work for.  Another is "Dual Agent with Designated Sales Agents" is also more detai

Realtors Stress Family First During Divorce in Free Confidential ReportDid you know that currently in the United States at least half of all marriages end in divorce?You may know someone who is currently going through a divorce and could use someone to talk to with expertise in dealing with real estate during their time of need. You might suggest they call the hotline below for a confidential report to be mailed to them? What I find so valuable is the trend for family law to focus on the family first.  Preserving the kid’s best interest makes sense to me during this time of transition.My experience tells me that sound advice from a neutral third party during this stressful time is a key to moving in an informed direction.You can imagine that what is also needed is a lot of compassion and good old-fashion listening skills. As you may or may not know, our team has developed expertise in this area because our skill sets match up very well with what is needed from our clien

By Dennis BeckerYesterday I saw a mention in someone’s email ezine about a kind person who had an eBay auction with the proceeds going 100% to help victims of the horrible Hurricane Katrina.It struck a chord with me because I had wanted to set up something similar, but found that the “eBay Giving Works” charity program seems to be terribly flawed for us small sellers. I had researched it the day before, eBay goes through Mission Fish to handle the administrative tasks and distribution.Here in a nutshell is how I understand it works. You set up an eBay auction and pledge a percentage of the proceeds to go to a charity. You pick the one you like. If the auction sells, the buyer pays you, and Mission Fish charges your credit card, taking out $3.00 per transaction for their fees, plus 3%

Buyers are in the driver’s seat in a buyers market and sellers are up against low ball offers in a buyer’s market. The buyer wants the house because it’s a perfect fit and the seller  is anxious to sell in a slow market!  The list-to-sale ratio is calculated by taking the sales price and dividing by the list price then multiplying by 100. For example if a Port Orange home is listed for $250,000 and the house sold for $200,000 then: 200000/250000 x 100 = 80% In this case we see that the home sold for 80% of the list price. If you calculate the average list to sale ratio for a neighborhood it will give you the average for the comparable sales price of neighboring properties. So, with this in mind when you have a low ball offer of $175,000 on a $250,000 home, your buyer’s offer is 30% below the list price. You can show your buyer that this offer is 10% below the average price that sellers are accepting in that neig

Selling on eBay is still one of the best ways to make money on the Internet, and it brings in big profits for some Sellers. In fact, the auction site seems to becoming even more popular with online sellers. EBay gives Sellers a feeling of control over running their own business. As an eBay Seller, I can identify with their feeling of excitement. There's nothing like the rush you get from making a big sale on eBay.Most eBay Sellers will no doubt agree that selling on eBay is a real rush. The power trip of being totally in control of your own business is far beyond the rush you get from selling other products over which you have little control.The rush Sellers get from being in control comes with responsibility. There's nobody to fall back on when you sell products on eBay. Because you are your own boss, everything falls onto your own shoulders. There's no third party to turn to for customer complaints or refunds. All refunds you give your customers come out of your own pocket. If the
