The Selling Frenzy Begins

School is about to start and it seems like the time to start selling some stuff help ease the costs of back to school supplies. Let’s take a look at some of my ventures and expected incomes, if everything sells.

As you may know from an earlier post of how I make money through my hobby, I have quite a stash of popular sneakers that can bring in a good amount of cash. From the photo, you can see shoes that I’ve put up for sale on popular sneaker forums. I’ll put them on eBay if they don’t sell there. And yes, people will even buy shoes that have been worn because it’s all about the style.

Expected income: around $900

Next comes the textbooks. Since everyone is hunting down the best bargains for textbooks, it seems to be a great time to sell them also. I’ve made a huge list of the books and relevant information. It took a while to estimate the prices I should charge. I went straight ahead and made a flyer for the books. Once I get back to school, I’ll print a bunch and stick’em to all the walls.

Other places where I listed were Amazon.com, Facebook’s Marketplace, and various other textbooks sites. Never sell back to bookstores because they will rip you off.

Expected income: at least $200

Wow. Putting up so many things for sale is quite tiresome and time-consuming but this will allow me to put more into my savings or Roth IRA.
