How do I sell something on ebay?
i am 17 and BROKE! I’ve tried applying for sooo many jobs, but none are hiring. So i’ve just decided I’ll make some things like jewlery or pillows or something nice, and sell them on ebay. Only thing Is Im unsure how I get the money from them and how to send it and everything.
What do I do?
Is it easy to get the money and send it? Someone give me easy instructions please! Thanks!
HOW DO I GET THE MONEY??
How do I send it?
you ask ebay (: be like yo ebay lemme sell this sh^t real quick and they’ll be like iight i got you! Nah im joking (: you probably believed me here is how
Step 1
Decide what you’re going to sell. Before you list an item, search eBay to see if people are selling it already. If there’s nothing like it on eBay, chances are it’s not a very good thing to sell because not a lot of people are going to look for it. If a lot of people wanted it, there would be a ton of people selling it. It’s best to sell something that you can find a lot of on eBay.
Step 2
Take pictures of your item. Obviously, the more pictures the better. The problem is that it takes a little while to take the picture, put it on your computer and upload it onto eBay. It also costs money if you advertise more than one picture. If you’re selling something cheap, you don’t need a lot of pictures. One will probably do. If you’re selling a car, upload as many pictures as possible and tell people to contact you if they want more.
Step 3
Choose your price. You want to price your item competitive. If someone is selling a camera new for $200, you could be selling a barely used one that you don’t want any more for $120. People would be willing to pay less if they’re not going to use it all of the time or they only want it for a vacation and don’t want to trash a new one.
Step 4
Pick a quick shipping service. Most people would rather pay more for a quick shipping service than wait 2-3 weeks for a standard service. Also ship USPS. They ship 6 days a week excluding holidays while UPS and FedEx only ship 5 days a week.
Step 5
Allow returns. If you don’t, people will think something is going on and wonder why. Charge a restocking fee of 15%. This way you won’t lose money through your listing and PayPal fees.
Step 6
Invest in a mini photo studio if you’re going to be listing a lot of items. The pictures will look professional and they will also make the item look great. If you follow these steps, your garage will be cleaned out in no time.

Weldon’s 2D #153 c.1897 – Practical Honiton Lace – Pillow Lace (Weldon’s Practical Needlework) $10.95 15 Pages. According to tradition, the first lace-maker was instructed in the art by an angel, in answer to a fair maiden’s tears. This lovely, and delicate work is certainly ethereal – but as legends go, I think perhaps Pillow Lace is the creation of Weavers. This is a fabulous book to learn this lovely obscure art – there are 39 excellent illustrations which show everything from winding of bobbin… |

The Evil Old Lady – Based on True Stories Thats Presently Happening
Hello to All My Readers!!
Today I will be writing about an evil old lady based on true stories also presently happening as you read.. Her name is Gwan Yuk Lan. No, I do not know the meaning of her name. Mrs. Lan is 80 years old and very healthy. She has all her teeth, she can run fast, jog, perfect vision, great hearing and memory. Mrs. Lan has 5 daughters and 2 sons. 4 daughters in Ottawa, 2 sons in Ottawa and 1 daughter that chose to stay in China. Mrs. Lan is my grandma, my evil grandma. I am the youngest child in my family of 5 one older sister at 24 and one older brother at 25r. Mrs. Lan has lived with our family of 5 since all three of us were born!
1. Mrs.Lan use to be the one to bring us to the bus stop for school and pick us up from the bus stop from school just like every other granny’s would do. She was normal until we all hit our teenage years. So, who was the one who first noticed about Mrs. Lan’s evilness? Yes, indeed it was me! How? Let me tell you.. When I was about 14 years young I started catching Mrs. Lan doing all these annoying daily, evening routines that were absolutely pointless. I would also catch her do nasty things that would harm another human being. Not any other human being but blood family members including myself.
2. One day my family was out shopping and I decided to stay home while my grandma was downstairs. I got hungry and started to crave for milk so I went downstairs. As I was walking towards the kitchen Mrs. Lan did not hear me walk in and you would never believe what I seen. You know when you boil water you will pour it into those jugs to keep the water to stay hot? Well those.. So she got the water thing out and poured herself a glass of hot burning water. Right when she drank it near the end she poured back the rest of her leftovers back into the “thing”. That is very nasty. WHY? because we all drink from that, its like her telling us silently without anyone knowing to drink her saliva! Ewww.. like is she serious? On top of that how do we know how long she’s done that for. So now we gave her, her own personal water thing.
3. Many years back Mrs. Lan went to China to visit her oldest daughter. Thats when we realized that not only she was evil but her 5 daughters are worse. You would never believe what Mrs. Lan told her oldest daughter to do. So.. one day the family was eating dinner at home and next thing you know there was a phone call for my mother. Who was the other person on the other line? Yes, Mrs Lans oldest daughter. We never even met this lady that we call our aunt. anyways back to the point. So my mother is on the phone now asking who are you about 10 times. And the lady goes “your husband does’nt like you, he’s with “so and so”. You guys will divorce soon my brother told me so. My mom obviously don’t believe bullshit that she doesn’t see with her own eyes. So she told her I don’t believe what you say, I know who you are and don’t call back and hung up. Its obvious that Mrs. Lan has told her to do that or else how would she get our house number? I means its not in the phone book! I don’t know what it is with my grandma, or what she has against our family but whatever it is.. is not right at all..
Lest’s get straight to the point.. Why do I dislike her? what has she ever done to me?
Alot! not only what she does to me, shes the one who causes all the commotion in this house my parents put over her head. Shes the one whos trying to get my parents to have a divorce. Shes the one who makes my loving mother a life of a living hell. Nobody hurts my mother!! So let me tell you about the annoying things she does to me. I never use to have allergies until one day I thought allergies grown in me haha. One morning out of no-where I started to have very teary eyes, and I would keep on sneezing until I got my bum out of the bed to blow my nose because if I didn’t I would just keep sneezing with druling boogers down my nostril. I found out that it wasn’t allergies infact it was my grandmothers shedded skin I’ve been breathing in every night for the past 2 years. It became severe! How do I know its her shedded skin? Me and my grandma Mrs. Lan share rooms together and one day I snook into my room to see what she does. Mrs. Lan is a very sneaky person and you never know what she does so don’t blame me for being a curious young lady haha. Okay, So before I go on… You now how they say the older you are the more dry your skin is, so the more dry your skin is.. the more you get itchy.. so the more your itchy the more you shed? Well its true and whats worse is Mrs. Lan does not use lotion eaither. Mrs. Lan coming straight out of China she probably still don’t even know what lostion is and its 2009! anyways… So I sneak up the stairs and looked into my room and I catch her taking off her sweater, her shirt, her pants.. and basically each piece of clothing that she takes of she would shake the clothes over my bed where my pillow area is. Then she would take her pajama pants and wipe down her bed then take the pants and shake the pants over my bed again. Right now I got real mad but some how I needed evidence. So what did I do? I took my cellphone out and put it on record and got the evidence to show my parents. For the past 2 years I’ve been sniffing up all her dead skin cells including the extra dust tat was put onto my bed. That is just dusgusting!! 2 months ago I told my father that I will buy a lock to my room and lock my room up everytime I am out if she does that one more time. And of course.. 1st strike…2nd strike.. 3rd strike.. No.. I didn’t end up buying no lock because A. I didn’t know how to screw one on and B. My dad would object me from doing so. So what did I do.. I made my own.. I made my own by taking the entire door-nob OFF and now I am using the door-nob as a key to open the door! It’s not my fault! We gave her many warnings to stop but she wouldnt’ so she asked for that herself. Its not like we want to you know? Yes we feel sorry for her but really in truly I do not want to have that feeling of the so called allergies I had for 2 years. I know its her. and I know it was that because right after I made my own lock thing. I never even had a runny nose every again. IM happy! We are a chinese family, my parents and all the old generations believe in spirits, Buddha etc. So in my living room there is a stand with Mrs. Lans husbands picture on the stand because he’s passed away many years ago. And its there so she can pray to him. Its very hard to explain but you can ask the chinese about that and maybe they can define it better than I can. So anyways A couple days ago Jan/31/08. She was caught talking to the picture of her husband telling him to help her and to listen to her. And this is what she had said in Cantonese “You listen to me now, Their mother do not respect me at all.. Help me get them. I hope you get them. I hope they get hit by a car when they walk out of this house and die. I hope they get hit by a car and die!” ARE YOU SERIOUS? Does she not notice the things that she does is totally wrong? we tell her what mistakes she does what did we do wrong. Ya we know shes old but that doesnt mean we can let he do all those stupid nasty things right? Everything in her mind is normal how hard is it to just stop? Why only to this house? When she sleeps over its like different grandmother overcomes her body. To her other family she would show care.. she would call them by their names.. she would bring their shoes to them.. jackets.. whatever! To us? She never even said our names once.. does nothing but try to kill us.. I don’t get it!! Soo many other things on the list I want to write about but unfortunately there are too many.. I will stop now and keep looking out for more serious issues. Too Be Continued!
