Garage Sale Day 2:
I pass next a window that overlooks the street,
and I see an old Cadillac with a lot of stuff.
It's 9:40AM. I open at ten.
I opened at 10:10 and a lady comes almost running.
"Boy, you really open at ten".
It happened to be a reseller.
Of course, she didn't find any stuff, I'm not giving anything away.
But I took the opportunity to find about my prices.
I sell basically as she sells. Great. Now I hafta use my selling skills.
It rained for quite some time. Still, it didn't stop the determined ones.
It was powerpack day. I sold four. And manage to make a 25 dollar profit.
La Bruja sold three dollars, Yey!!!.
I also sold three flashlights, at a 40.00 dollar profit.
But that's sort of cheating, I bring 'em from China. That's my business.
I wanted this to be strictly junk that I won't use anymore.
Tomorrow I'll put more out. I need more money.
Almost at the end, two guys come looking for guns or ammo.
I showed a couple of pieces, but they were far away from motivating me.
I can get top dollar for those.
I had 100 bird bangers unfused. And frankly, I respect fusing.
I made 20 bucks profit, and got rid of a project I'll never do.
All in all, it was a better day. I got to meet my new neighboors from Texas.
We talked Texas, ranches and guns for a good hour and a half.
Tomorrow is liquidation day. I'll mark everything way down.
To get rid of it.
Less things going to Goodwill, and instant money in my poket.
Even if it will be the same money at the end in tax deductions.
Tomorrow's forecast in 100% rain all day.
Goodwill is going to have a feast.
Till the, wish me luck. I'll need it.
Cheers.
to talk prices.
