if someone told you hey you need to sell
every single sneaker and you'll be a
millionaire would you do it you gotta
touch the noodles now we yeah oh yeah
what's going on guys welcome back to
another video it's your boy sneaker life
for a one-time bro so I don't know if
you noticed I've been switching the
camera so this is my old canon a TD now
usually I try to give you all some good
old resolutions on 4k Big Dawg invested
a lot into this rig right so this is
like the Big Dawg and this is just the
candidate so there's no for canvas the
lighting isn't that great but it's easy
cuz I can do you know a lot of you guys
are like man I really like the vlog
style and I feel like once I got that
camera I stopped doing the whole vlog
style because number one the thing is
heavy
right this cannon is light I can see
myself there's a screen right over here
that can flip with that I gotta have a
monitor and all that stuff so whatever
but reading a lot of you guys's feedback
and comments man I definitely appreciate
it this year I'm gonna be applying
literally every video that you guys
suggested in always man always feel free
to leave some constructive criticism
down below on what do you want to see or
what you didn't like or what you do like
it those things you're the viewer this
is like the Truman Show you know it's
the mic a sneaker live show you feel me
but anyway today we're back at the ebay
series hi leo hello hey what's up okay
anyway like I was saying a lot of you
guys wanted like a full in-depth kind of
how I post on ebay I guess you could say
so I'll give you that break down I'm
gonna make it really short and sweet and
just kind of straight to the point my
laptop is not in here so let's get over
to that so the basics on selling on eBay
number one let's say you're just
starting from scratch as you guys can
see my account hey brother
I'm trying to make a video you
scratching oh oh look that's bucket get
on your bed you messing up my flow
brother so you guys can see bro come
here
you driving here go go go somewhere go
later oh you better go you to a
little like I was saying as you
guys can see I don't really have much
feedback this is kind of like my bodega
store obviously no I have Mike's bodega
store or Mike's bodega com that you can
go check out but you know you set up
your eBay account and when you're new
you're not actually going to get the
money instantly which is it's annoying
but it's just one of those things where
you got to earn eBay's trust it's just
like any platform so I get it
fortunately enough my PayPal account
I've done so many transactions that I
don't get any holds like I get the money
instantly and sometimes eBay when
someone buys from you they'll hold the
money until that person gets their item
it says like I'm happy with my item and
they release the funds that's just for
newer accounts for most of you guys I
know you've been around for a while but
I just figured I wouldn't mention that
like to make this really simple you guys
can see I have tons of items what I like
to do actually is I go to active and I
click sell similar this is just a
duplicate listing of something that I've
already listed so the gold toast so
let's say that I'm selling some cement
forms I'll just change the title Jordan
for retro cement its 2016 I think it's
gonna release size 12 100% authentic
because it's always authentic do not
sell any fakes on eBay you will get
banned you will get indefinitely
suspended don't do it make sure your
shoes are legit right off the RIP so you
don't got to deal with any of that and
then obviously you want to take some
pictures now this can range
I usually just use my phone just to keep
it simple and get like a nice simple
background you can either do the box
with the shoes but you know this is a
good picture and then I put my sticker
in there just so people know that it's
mine and I only do that in a few
pictures because it's just too
time-consuming and then obviously you
fill out your Jordan what color would it
be it would be white I always put where
I bought them so most of my shoes
luckily enough there's a floor right
here
Nike kamar bought directly from Nike
comm ships UPS has the og box
and then I just kind of put disclaimer
just looking out for me you know and you
guys can type this all out if you want
to add to your listings that's just what
I put in there and I'm very very
cautious on who buys like if I see a
buyer that buys and they only have like
one feedback I'm most likely cancel it
cuz I don't trust them that's my right
because there's too many scammers out
there trying to do chargebacks and like
I told you there's certain precautions
that you guys should take and there's no
listing fees right then you go ahead and
list item and it's that simple
eBay kind of does its thing for you and
then basically once that's done you just
kind of wait and people are gonna
lowball you they're gonna give you
terrible offers but you know if you just
stay patient someone is gonna buy your
shoes unfortunately enough for me today
someone actually bought my cause Jordan
fours for eight hundred dollars and I'll
give you guys the breakdown so they
ended up an eight hundred and sixty six
dollars with tax and I ended up getting
with paypal fee since there are no eBay
fees or sneakers over one hundred as of
this moment as at the time of making
this video there's no fees so you ended
up $866 PayPal fee is $25 the tax
collected by eBay was $66 my net amount
so what I made was seven hundred and
seventy four dollars and fifty nine
cents now that doesn't include shipping
which shipping will most likely run me
anywhere from ten to twenty five dollars
depending on who I want to ship with and
I'll give you guys the breakdown of all
that first let's go get the shoes now I
keep all the bangers up here you know
what I'm saying we got the Travis Air
Force Ones we have the desert or air
maxes which these are all being sold but
I just feel like these are bangers you
know what guys no I got both the
Travis's from actually I got three
Travis's from sneakers a bro I've really
been hidden but I didn't get those 85
which was kind of sucked so here's the
cause right here Bob lamb oh man oh
Jesus
yeah another thing is this is the closet
man it means I'm selling everything in
here like all my clothes the only thing
that I'm really keeping are just some
stone island pieces and some denim
jackets but for the most part a lot of
this I'm getting rid of like all these
t-shirts
piece posted them and I'm sure a lot of
you are like t-shirts who's gonna buy
those but the reality of it is a lot of
people I like and I take such good care
of most of my stuff that is just
also have an abundance of stuff thank
God bless right but it's just kind of
like it's almost brand-new alright so
now you want some tape and then you want
a box you can get these boxes from Uline
or you can just get it from a store you
can go to Home Depot there's so many
places to get boxes I think a lot of
people stress about that even with
packaging the reason I have so many I
got a bomb in bundles because obviously
I run other businesses so it's just kind
of a necessity for me but if I was just
like a normal person without a business
I would most likely just go to Home
Depot
they have tape you can get this at Home
Depot or you can get it at Costco even
better deal at Costco and then you know
get some boxes especially if you're
selling some your stuff like it's worth
going to Costco or Sam's Club and buying
one of these even Home Depot and then
just get a few boxes and a few poly
mailers that you can get at Office Max
or Office Depot whatever you have in
your area and that's just the quickest
more efficient way but if you run a
business I highly recommend like
checking out Amazon or Uline now this
might seem goofy to some of you guys
like bro but i'ma show you like how to
tape the Box properly and everything
like I'm giving you a full in-depth
analysis of how this goes so always box
down now these boxes are 16 by 12 by 6
or damn this is an 18 by 12 by 6 what
the typically I'll go 16 I don't know
why I'm this big you can even go like 15
by 10 by 5 it really just depends I got
these bigger boxes most likely because
when I have like a size 12 or 13 shoe it
doesn't fit in those boxes so and you
typically don't want like too big of a
box because you want the shoes to fit in
there nicely cuz that just that just
saves you money
the bigger the box the more expensive it
gets and then you got to really outweigh
your options so I'm out of tape what are
the chances that and this is exactly why
I recommend going to Costco you get
these in bulk
number one you save a lot of money and
number two you just don't run out like
it's just not a thing so I typically one
across you know I do one here and then
one over there and tape over that too I
just like to make sure that everything
is secure you know boom just like that
the shoes in there while I look form a
technically we're throwing like some
grocery bags in here or it just depends
on how much room is in the box you guys
can see there's a lot of room this time
around which if I had a smaller box you
know I might save me a few cents or a
few dollars but that's not the case here
no I just want to have a little moment
of silence for my cause these are super
fireman it's sucks that I got to let him
go but you know we got bigger goals than
this
this is like obvious answer but if
someone told you hey you need to sell
every single sneaker and you'll be a
millionaire would you do it yes I'm
taking every single one of these shoes
as like you know what this is me being
one step closer to being a millionaire
like once I'm out of this debt now I can
positively
count to a million the big homie LJ told
me can you count to a million
and I was like yeah zero one two three
but no if you're in debt you really got
to think about it you're negative so
let's say you have student loans for a
hundred thousand dollars and that's the
only day you have well you're starting
from negative one hundred thousand once
you get zero you're that much closer to
being a millionaire so I just want to
let you guys really just think about
that like you know what these are fire
these are tow man I would love to wear
these the image man like what come on
these are fire but you know what I'm a
millionaire bro I'm gonna buy the whole
set at the same time see you guys soon
[Music]
[Music]
but once the box is all taped up then
what I'm gonna do is throw it over here
on this scale that I got you can pick
these up from Amazon they're pretty
inexpensive I'm not gonna lie I love
this camera but I also don't like it cuz
the lighting just isn't that good there
this is a big fellow we got 4 pounds 12
ounces that's a big fellow so here is
the ebay calculator well I should say
shipping calculator so we have 18 by 12
by 6 update and it's looking like if I
ship it Priority Mail it's gonna be $10
if I do FedEx it's gonna be $12 now it
also gives you the dates so if I ship at
UPS Priority Mail 13 to the 15th of I
ship it
FedEx home delivery at 13th through the
19 and then you're always going to want
to add signature confirmation as you
guys can see requires seeing for
confirmation so the total cost is gonna
be $13 and 29 cents and then what I
would do is just subtract that from
seven hundred and seventy four dollars
and fifty nine seven there you guys have
it that is pretty much what I have made
now when it comes to shipping more
expensive items I personally recommend
FedEx and UPS USPS is good but it's just
sometimes getting hurt I get nervous
like my Easy's I shipped UPS I've just
had some really bad experiences with
USPS that's just my recommendation but
then again you guys can you guys can do
whatever you want now one important
thing that I wanted to bring up that I
just note if you look right here you can
see the sender of this payment is
unverified typically I do not like
selling to people that are unverified
well unverified means is they just don't
have their bank account connected and
they haven't done the certain things to
be verified through paper typically when
that's the case things get a little bit
suss I'm honestly thinking about
cancelling this transaction but I might
just do it just because number one their
PayPal address is confirmed
number two banking scam like I refuse
its shipping in Dallas Texas I got
family in Dallas Texas now I say no but
a flight away but on top of that I think
PayPal has been covered and like I'm
making this entire video documenting the
process obviously but that's just one
thing that I highly recommend like if
you guys see that unverified don't
shipped all this to sauce so then the
next thing I'll do is actually just use
my label printer boom yeah just like
that I like these because number one you
don't gotta buy ink the labels are
pretty expensive but you don't got a
waste paper gotta have scissors and all
that garbage the label maker is amazing
a lot of you guys always ask about it in
my brand videos it's the Dymo I'll put
the link down below if you want to buy
one if you ship a lot or even just a
good amount like buy this like trust me
it's such a time-saver and I ended up
going ups with these with signature
conformation get there in two days cost
me $15 and that's a wrap and you just go
on to you babe page make sure you add
that tracking number that you just got
and you know we're done for the day
so there you guys have it that's a
step-by-step process on how to sell
sneakers on ebay and that really
relatively goes with anything Grail
stock X or stock actually even preprint
they print the label for you but you
know it's still the same concept make
sure to just follow these instructions
now the most important step like the one
thing that you guys must do when you
take it to the post office do not drop
it on the counter and say oh it's yeah
it's prepaid go to the front and have
them scan it and give you a receipt that
way it's scanned in the system it shows
that you dropped it off you could also
record yourself dropping it off just so
there's that proof that's probably the
most important thing there's been plenty
of times where I took packages to like
USPS and I set it on the counter like a
lot of people do it's pretty normal and
they usually scan it but sometimes the
package just goes missing I don't want
to throw any negative energy out there
it it just goes missing I don't know
what happens to it but you know we just
live in a time where you have to protect
yourself at all time so it's just take
all these precautionary steps and you
should be straight there it is guys
another sneaker gone and this is a big
one the cost so I'm not even tripping
about cuz I almost likely keep my black
hat for is it's the same shoe
