Congratulations!!!

I don't understand why people think if they find a single attractive dish/plate that it is not still useful or desirable if they cannot find a match. If you look at tablescapes, very often odd dishware is used on its own and looks beautiful. Not every salad plate or cereal bowl has to be used for its original purpose and in multiples. My favorite plates/bowls in my personal collection are loners.

Love my Bosch stove, bought used, it’s a beast!

Hello Karen. I replaced a Samsung dishwasher with a Bosch dishwasher. The best thing I ever did. I love it.

You Re so organized Karen! I am always in awe when I see your basement. The Napco Christmas planter was my favorite of your finds today. So pretty and vintage looking.

Karen when any electrical items have a problem when you first get them please always ask for a replacement because 9 times out of 10 you will have a problem down the line. Just my experience. Loved the dolphin print. Great finds as always. Hope you're both well.

I can’t believe how neat your inventory is stored. No other ebayer has such dedication and professionalism. I don’t know how you do it by yourself. If I could take over someone’s business it would be yours.

Please also show the work that goes beyond the fun of sourcing and gathering the sell items. That will help people to understand the loads of work goes in between shopping and picking what sold before they’ll rush out to spend all of their money. They get their inspiration from you to shop, but also they’ll need inspection from you to do the work and all of the work that goes beyond the whole concept of reselling. ❤

But when you find things in your city - they really are OLD. My son brought me a lot of things from Japan when he was an exchange student. 700 year old items were nothing there. Here they don't even exist.

Why not break down the boxes and stack them somewhere? Love watching your videos ❤

The nice clear glass with swirl design is Dansk MCM ashtray goes for $20-$25.😊

Love your organization system!

Black Plastic Shelves in Roger’s Area: I’ve used that style shelf before and have always found them to be inferior. They don’t adjust and sag under a weight load. I’ve always replaced them as soon as possible, with either built in wooden shelves or Metro style wire racks that have a height adjustment feature. Not all of my Metros are on wheels, but both wheeled and fixed are very useful. 😉😉

Love the print! Would love to hear an update on it if you find out more about it…😃

It just breaks my heart to hear that you are having some problems with your dishwasher after you were so pleased to finally own one. Nothing mor aggravating than having a problem with an item and then having to fight to get restitution 😢

You are so organized!

So organized and neat with all the inventory, that is something I know I wouldn't be able to do, it takes years of practice and patience. Yes to that pig, it's cute, we love a good pig!

We bought a whole kitchen full of Samsung appliances and have had trouble with the fridge and stove so far…never again! Thanks for your videos, your sense of humour cracks me up!

Excited when your videos pop up 😊

Karen, you probably already know but I think your glass item is a Dansk cigar/ashtray. They're really pretty but they don't sell for much. Have a good week! 😊

You are so lucky that they honor the tag color of the week on hard goods where you are! Our local Goodwills only use the color tag of the week on clothing only! Not belts, not shoes, not linens., not hard goods..nothing! only clothing. So ticks me off! And yes, our prices are high too! (Western PA, North of Pittsburgh)

I wish you both many years of happiness

We just got rid of our Samsung refrigerator and celebrated. That refrigerator gave us so much grief over the years. 😫 Sorry you are having trouble with one of their dishwashers.

I lived down the road from Peterborough, NH. It is a lovely and very artistic New England town. I shopped and had lunch there many times with some dear girlfriends😀. I’m so glad the baskets sell well because the quality really is amazing. Great video, as always.

I would definitely buy the Japanese lusterware. Its worth alot when in great shape. Also EAPG has groups of collectors that would love to buy so many pieces yiu pass on. Its sharply cut and well made. I hope one day you'll learn more about it because I groan each time you pass on it. I love your videos, you are so calming to watch.

I also was hoping she would pick up this Luster set as well. This design is hard to fine. They have several other designs, but this one here is a hard one to find and I think it would go for pretty good money, and it was in very good condition. ❤️

I would totally buy that sand piper bird painting from you!!

I bought a rolling wire rack, break my boxes flat and lay them in sizes (s m lg) on the shelves. Yes have to retape but have an amazing assortment at my finger tips

Long time watcher, Karen, but first time commenting. I was looking at your metal, roller shelving. I bought two at Goodwill yesterday. They were $140 each Six foot, four or five shelves. Not a GREAT BUY, but much better than I've found on line and first time I've seen them in thrift store. I think the cost of storage would be one of your biggest upfront costs. The bins aren't cheap either. Love your videos.❤

I love pre-packing stuff I list (like you did with the puffy quilt and Roger does with his merch). The only issue I've come across is when people bundle items and I have to repackage different things. Love the sandpiper picture!

Karen your videos are such an inspiration. I've always wanted to sell on E Bay. You make it look so easy, but I know it is'nt. Thank you!

I have to say I love the fast pace of Rogers method. You don't have to look at your inventory forever, it gets boring. I imagine that after a time, you get a following of folks who like auctions so you can make more income...

Hi Karen! I break down my boxes and put them in a large box so I can flip through them, since most are Amazon boxes (I know most of their sizes by number). I put them in order of size as much as possible so I can easily grab the best size.

Eileen looked out for you with that fun pig platter

Great video! You are amazing! I still always love when you say, "Do we love a good cat?"

@Lavender Clothesline I chuckled when you said you've been in Goodwill 1000's of times, hence I've been in only ONE (1) Goodwill ever in my whole life & I'm 57yrs old. 😮. I am completely envious of you but the closest Goodwill to me is probably 300 miles round trip. Anyhoo, I love your videos, I'm learning a lot and made my 1st eBay sale last week 🎉 ! Thank you for sharing all that you do❤

Just throwing in my 2 cents about your brown boxes. I have those double wide tote bins where I break my boxes down flat and simply file them standing up by size; smallest in front, larger in back. They take up very little space. I hope this is helpful. Thank you for the fun videos!

May i suggest getting a much better dishwasher like Bosch. I had an LG when we redid the kitchen- was the only appliance that gave us the same problem non-stop. For a lil bit more $, we finally got better quality (and the LG wasn’t cheap either) I swear dishwashers are the biggest problem pain in the butt appliances ever.

I love the cat!

I miss scavenger life’s podcast so much! Love visiting their coffee shop, their coffee is sooooooo good!

I have that same NAPCO shopper girl in my shop...and I paid much more than that for mine!!! SCORE!!

I would want a new dishwasher. My sister bought Miele because their average for service calls was once every 23 years. Great dishwasher.

Thanks for sharing your dishwasher issues. I’m currently shopping for one. Someone who works for an appliance company told me not to buy Samsung or LG products.

I collapse/flatten all of my boxes and store them vertically by size on a wire shelving unit. Boxes that are too long to go on the shelf lay flat on the very top rack. I just keep a few of those since I too am limiting the number of large items I'm shipping. I sell a good number of hard goods but work out of a very small basement space so this has been a huge space saver for me.

Boxes- I take my boxes apart and file them in a role with metal vertical dividers llllllllllll. Works great!

Karen I recycle a lot of boxes. I bought several plastic trash cans (square) and I break down the boxes and line them up close to size as I can. Then I use a bin for small boxes break them down line them up by size. I have also been using bags to ship what I can.

2x4 & plywood shelves could be made under the stairs (accessing from the side.) I'm considering changing from plastic totes to legal size bankers boxes so I have more uniform sizes and straight sides.

CostCo has great metal shelfs with good!! Wheels for 119. They fit 3 plastic goid side bins across. I replace my plastic ones when I move my things to the garage. I live in Florida and it is very hard for any little florida buggies to climb up the silver chrome shelves. They are so easy to “stack” and move around!!

I always look up Bing & Grondahl mother's day plates. Some can bring very good money. The panda plate just sold for over $300. Usually, the cuter the animal is, the better it will sell.

put the games on the smaller shelves and put the totes on the game shelf.. or get smaller totes or boxes.

Bosch is the best dishwasher I’ve ever had! I’ve never had to order a part, because I’ve never had a problem with it (I’ve had it for 6 years at this time), so I’m not sure about the back ordering of the parts. A friend of mine recommended it to me. She’s had hers for 12 years & has never had an issue with it. Highly recommend!

I think the oval glass piece is a cigar ashtray. Go with Bosch dishwasher. Samsung is a joke. My daughter has LG…only 3 years old and the racks have rust at the joints. Also, it doesn’t dry even with high heat. Have to remove and air dry or hand dry over 50% of the load.

The oval crystal dish looks like a pipe ashtray.

I still have my Kenmore dishwasher 💕 and love it! My brother and a friend of mine have Bosch and they both love them. If you don't have a Bosch you shouldn't need parts yet! 😂 But really, no one I know that has a Bosch has had to have repairs! If someday I need a new dishwasher it will probably be a Bosch.

Puffy quilt shipping: do you wrap the quilt in one or two thick black bags and then tape it? And then it’s ready for shipping?

I believe there were some Denby coffee cups, 4 of them, at the 31 minute mark. They look like Potters Wheel Parchment pattern. I have the complete set, mine are over 40 years old. They are made in England. Too bad you didn’t pick them up.
