  • Fast shipping, packaging good as described and good price. This was the buyer’s review of my laptop that I sold him.

      Well done. That's the kind of feedback you always want to get.

      • I picked up a Marketplace purchase this morning. A woman was selling two pieces of Pfaltzgraff for $25. I knew that one piece was worth $80 to me. I didn't check the other piece because her photo wasn't great and I wasn't sure what it was but it didn't matter since I knew I'd make a $55 profit on the other piece. I just looked it up and that piece is worth $30 so my total profit is actually $85. Nice quick flip - $25 to $110. I'll take it.

        • Good job. On Offer Up, I listed this new baby stroller for $5 and a woman just bought it. I paid $18 for it on Ebay w/free shipping. Before selling it I was going to put it in the dumpster but figured to try selling it first, glad I did.

          • Before "Easy" says wow good deal I only lost $13 (lol), when I worked for the Dept of Children and Family services I bought the stroller just in case needing it but never needed to use it.

              Doesn't matter what you paid for it. The point is you got $5 cash for something that was going to get trashed and now someone else will benefit from it. Keep it out of the landfill and help out another person.

              • That's a good way of looking at it with less trash in the landfills and helping out that woman. It took about 3 months of it sitting on Offer Up before she bought it today. The easy thing to have done would have been to trash it where it was taking up space in my small apartment and collecting dust and it was irking me every time I'd walk past it and it reminded me of DCFS a job that I hated with a passion so I was so tempted to dump it but it paid off not dumping it. What a relief to get rid ot it though.
