Im begging all Sale Hoo Members....To please.... help me... either... a way... of fixing the declination that paypal sent me..... Or... arrange a donation.... to my paypal account ** Link Removed: Only Available to Registered Members** I am literally begging on my knees.... Please... I beg of all of you...please help me.... Im only 16... Please you guys are the only people that I know who would help me... please help me..... i beg of you all.. because this just might be my last time posting ... or ever doing business... ever agian...
I also did this when I was 15 man I did very good business until it ended by "my chinesee friend" just stopped sending me the items. I also lost all my money and my dad is in federal prison. Come on man get a minimum wage job and start from there. Dont worry about eBay worry about your mom start dropping of applications at all local fast food restaurants man. I cant donate money Im barely making it myself but just keep your head up Im 17 and Im doing great now
That's a real bummer but like TripleG said...get off your a** & look for a job!
omg..I cant believe the nerve of some people. Sorry for your situation.. IF ITS REALLY TRUE!! Like dts said get off your lazy butt and find a job!
Interesting is you found the money to join this paid forum just a few days ago.
I could if I would, the only issue, is that, theres lack of jobs, in my area, 30% of all workers in windsor, are layed off, same with most stores. Its hard, right now... I want to take a risk again... and just buy a lot of psp's from ever tek, if this goes successful, i could make the 3000 back, but I dont know if evertek is safe or not. Regardless, i want to make it quick, because I dont want my mom to not talk to me for a year @_@... and plus, I care alot about my grades, last time i had a job..it not only screwed me over, but the fact that I was only 15, the employees there would tease me regardless, and make me do most of the work. I care alot about my grades, this years average is 83% I realy want to goto University, next year is grade 11, and I just cant let my grades drop. I really need it, this is like a double edged sword right now, get a job, screw my relationship up with my mom for a year, and drop my grades, or take another small risk with what I got left.
BTW. I know evertek is on the suppliers list. But are their auctions trustworthy/
Cant have it worst than me I got sued around september for the same *censored* selling fakes 3,500 dollars I had to pay I barely finished paying them off I worked my ass of at a local store for 110 dollars a week 30 hours a week every week until I finally paid it off now thats off my back and I dont have to worry my mom about my mistakes Im barely going to be a senior so most of my junior year I worked to pay for my mistake I also care about my grade my average is 89% I need 1-2% to be in top 10% to get a easier shot to financial aid for college I just paid 800 for 2 summer college classes Im currently taking. Im going to the future man get of your ass and start cutting lawns or something start selling candy in school tell people they are for a club I did this undercover made about 100 dollars profit a week for about 2 months EXTRA MAN EXTRA got to think THIS *censored* IS LIFE it you become better of trust me you already tripped once its going to be really hard to trip again
Well, I am consdering my self realy lucky.. I called paypal again, and setted up another dispute, and they said that if the person doesnt not send me the tracking number in 10 days I will get a refund. But I read the dispute stuff, and they say that they cant guarantee a refund. Does any one know why?
kids really sell on ebay. yeh i gotta say this smells very fake! sorry if its true tho! if you have 3 grand of stuff and in a bind sell it off on liquidation.com and consider it lesson learned
I don't think this is fake because I saw him on other forums posting for advice about what to do about his $3,000 possible loss.
Here is my advice and it might sound kind of cold..but you need to first just hope you can get your money back, but second you need to find a job and dig yourself out of the hole. People bailing you out or giving you donations won't help you learn anything. It sounds to me that you are taking unnecessary risks with money you cannot afford to lose. Overcoming difficult situations such as this will only help you in the long run by being more responsible, self-reliant, and a smarter business person.
Sorry to say, but this is for real, my ebay account is alex.trann that is my ebay account, I sell nintendo wii's, xbox 360 accessories and everything. But chances are is that Ill get the 3000 back, so its like starting of from scratch. Next month is my b-day, I was thinking of using my b day money, which would be around 300, to start off from scratch where i started before by getting things off liquidation, to sell them like how I started to make the 1000. This time i know what not to do, and what to do, and where to ask for advice. Right now, im hoping for the 3000 to come back, because its either they send the tracking number, or make refund if they fail to send tracking number. The only problem is that they "cant" guarantee the refund. What do they mean by that? has any one had any previous experiences?
The only problem now, is that, my mother doesnt want to let me use her credit nor debit card now, so now, im stuck with giving my money to my friend in real life, and then have them transfer it to my paypal. Does anyone know if liquidation.com or liquidationtime.com users accept paypal? Also, is there any other solution to this?
Im also worrieing about if i should order refurbished ipods from liquidationtime.com. Has anyone ordered stuffed like that before? are they in good condition?
hey alex
really hope you get your refund of 3000. i'm not the expert in this ebay trading and stuff but one thing i know for sure is that if your only a beginner, then selling electronics like game consoles/accesoories/ipods is really diffecult because the market is so saturated with that stuff and its quite hard to compete with the big boy powersellers on ebay. my advice to you is that if you want to be successful you have to be flexible and dynamic in what you sell. if something dosent work out then move onto something else. i think looking for liquidation stock is a step in the right direction, but personally i'm not so convinced with liquidation.com. the best place to start off from is from:(** Link Removed: Only Available to Registered Members**) try the profit packs, they only cost $145 and are a good place to start from. youre almost garunteed to get a profit with these, and then once you purchase one and sell all the items, you could think about buying the double pack, and then slowly build your business/profits and once you feel comfortable with this, try ordering one of the pallet loads. this website is really great, try starting a post about these profit packs and you will surely recieve positive comments from many satisfied buyers. hope this helps alex. keep at it man, and dont give up, persistance will pay off eventually.
Thanks alot man, i went to the website, and it looks quite interesting, but have you tried this? Does it work? Because the reason being for me selling electronics, is because I have lots of knowledge about xbox 360's and Nintendo wii's I have a supplier tht can get me 6 wii's per month, its not that bad, considering its local, but I will give this site a try, also I started off from a local liquidation store, so I could test out if everything worked out. But thanks for a great suggestion my friend. thanks alot jasimao_sales ! =]
alex, check out this link about these profit packs:
** Link Removed: Only Available to Registered Members** a lot of posititve comments about the packs and hardly any negative points, so it seems like something you should think about. should be easy, just order one and then list all the items on your ebay account and let the money roll in. i'm from the UK and shipping is $133 but i've still ordered one, waiting for it to come anytime soon :) its always good to sell items that you know a lot about, and if you have found a local supplier that allows you to sell these electronics on ebay with a profit after paying all the ebay/paypal fees then good for you mate, thats not an easy thing to do these days.
Alex, hang in there - be patient. My family was on the verge of bankruptcy due to medical bills when I was a kid. My Mom and Dad pulled it together, and all of us kids got part time jobs after school and in the summer and we all did well in the end. It tought me that I can just put my nose to the grindstone and work my butt off and use my good mind to look for opportunity. If you are only a teen and already figuring out this and the basics of business, you will find yourself going far.
Can you sell your wii's etc using craigslist, amazon etc where there are no listing fees? (amazon charges 7% at the end, but that includes credit card processing). Can I ask what you are selling the wii's for? They are really tough to find them around here. Where are you located? You mentioned Windsor, but what state? Take care -
