My inventory comes from everywhere: thrift stores, estate sales, garage sales, clearance racks and liquidation lots. Sourcing is the skill; I'm checking sold listings on my phone in the aisle, because the only price that matters is what something has actually sold for, not what people are asking. Back home, every item gets inspected, cleaned or repaired, measured, and photographed on a plain background, several angles plus flaws. Listing is the grind: a title with the words buyers search, condition notes that prevent returns, and the right price for a fast sale or a patient one. I list the same stock across several marketplaces and have to delist it everywhere the moment it sells, or I'll oversell and take a hit on my seller rating. Every morning I'm packing yesterday's sales and printing labels, and the post office run is part of the routine. The numbers I watch are cost per item, days to sell, fees and shipping, because a $40 sale can net me $12. Dead stock that won't move gets bundled, discounted or donated so it stops eating shelf space.
