I wasn't planning on updating again until tomorrow, but while I was pursuing around eBay this morning I took a glance over at our total sales for the last few weeks. If you recall, several weeks ago I told you about our goal of turning our $1,150 we sold our broken down car for, into $10,000 in less than 60 days.
I knew that we had been doing pretty well and that we were at least in the 'ballpark' of reaching our goal. When I glanced at our total sales today I saw that we are a lot closer than I thought!
Here are the sales figures straight from eBay:
Keep in mind that that does NOT include our shipping cost and any money that we made off of shipping. Which honestly, we make around $5-10 on each item. This usually covers our eBay fees that we pay on each item.
If you have ever wondered if it is possible to make money or even make a living on eBay, hopefully this shows you it is very possible. I am in the process of posting around $3,000 of merchandise we've bought over the last 3 days right now, so hitting our goal shoudln't be a problem.
I hope to update in a few weeks and show you where we have not only hit our $10,000 goal, but well surpassed it!
BTW: We had a very productive trip down to Alabama this weekend. We visited Spring Creek Auction house in Florence, AL. We picked up some great deals. Check back tomorow for a full update on that.

How about I will drive a car to you and let you use the car for as long as you need if you are giving me 50%..... my point is that its so much better to just keep going!
Haha, yea we definatly wont be buying a $10k car. We'll be paying off our LAST credit card we will ever own and our LAST car loan we will ever have. Then the remainder will goto a cheap car. We'll keep around $1k to start the proccess again. Next stop...knock out the student loans.
The student loans will be the next BHAG. That will probably be a 90 day project but a MUCH bigger number.....Around 3x
