Sold several polybags for between $8 and $10 each to try reselling.  I had bought each from Target for between 32 and 39 cents.

I'm now a reseller, I'm going to hell, and my kids are gonna have hooves.

 

Maybe your kids will have wings because you are helping grandma get a gift for little Johnny at Christmas _{(at 100% markup.)}

No sale... but did anyone else share the feeling that sales are slower than this same period last year?

Friday was mental in the uk with that 20% promo on Ebay. I think sales have increased since September - just not mine!

Kai's Fire Mech for $28 FBA. $8 buy in.

This falls in the category of "you can lead a horse to water but you can't make him drink." I have a few of these I bought cheaply online and have held less than a year. After fees, etc., I'm taking home more than double my cost. Most people will overlook little sets--fine by me.

They sell quickly in the Buy Box, even at this price point. Also, Kraaang Lab Escape and Olivia's Newborn Foal.

Yeah, this one has been great. Of course I did not clear a few shelves of these at some Walmarts for $7ish each. LOL.

Nicely done.

I got a damaged box one for myself, because I liked the look of it, for $7.  But I remember my Walmart having tons of them on clearance for $8 and I passed.  I won't be making that same mistake again.

now it will be too crowded. so better pass it now :D

Too crowded? Maybe, maybe not--I still had to hold it for 10-11 months. Many won't hold anything for 30 days/until their credit card payment is due.
Different strokes for different folks, I guess.

I sold mine at around $20 and never looked back

sold another Olivia's House ($85....$35 buy in) and the rest of my Decorating the Tree polybags ($12/each).  I started with 20 of those polybags and they've all sold within the last 2 weeks.
