eBay Scavengers Episode 36: Our Process and How We Make a Living on eBay - Ryanne and Jay

Posted on 09:28 by Unknown
Sometimes the process of photographing and listing looks like this. But you gotta do it!
Jay and Ryanne talk about their process of running an ebay store from start to finish. We cover buying and sourcing, organizing, cleaning, photography, listing, selling, shipping and customer service. Everyone has a different way of running their business, this is how we run ours. Check out Pixelmator, the app Ryanne mentions for quick and easy photo editing for the Mac. Also we mentioned using GarageSale for laying out a template for your listings. We use the Panasonic GH1 camera with a 20mm Pancake lens for our photos. Watch Ryanne's video about how to pack a big heavy typewriter for shipping.
