BULQ Liquidation Source

[bucolic_frolic]

eBay promoting BULQ. They told me about it in early September, now things are really slow. I guess they think I'll buy a boatload of stuff from BULQ. Do your due diligence on BULQ. Don't think it instant solution for eBay riches.

eBay sales were down in August, I read, about 2%. Things will be really slow without STIM checks and unemployment.

1. Much more than 2% lost sales due to the Post Office for us.

I've got thousands of post cards that seem to be selling in the mall, if priced right.

2. Thanks for the tip, I have some of those as well, old and not so old

and I don't give them much attention.

3. Real Photo post cards are the best.

Small little towns are what most look for as a regional collectibles. Big cities, not so much.
I spend a lot of time checking out "sold" items to see what is selling and for how much.

You have to check the market out all of the time as it changes all of the time.

4. I think there may be some reall sale opps with Ebay and Etsy this holiday season if the supply of

goods are going to be in short supply due to supply chain breakdowns and slowdowns.
People could be looking for alternative gifts ideas this year.
I hope.

5. I had no idea what BULQ was - never heard of it until your post. So I just looked at

their site. It's kind of like a giant storage auction all the time. That would be a real handy way to stock up a store or flea market booth, but I don't know about ebay. Sometimes you look for something on ebay and there are 100 offers of the same thing for almost the same price so much of it must go unsold.

6. Like everything else, the profit is determined by what you pay when you buy

There are more than a few unhappy posts online that overbid on odd lots and closeouts. America has so much stuff that just about every retailer now has a closeout/clearance aisle, shelf, or display. BULQ sounds similar to me. There's a reason they didn't move this stuff the first time.
