Rock On!

My cousin is in to music, so he told me to come by and check out the equipment he was selling.

So I did. 

After checking his stuff out I left with a bunch of stuff and spent every dime I had. 

This is what I got:

Alesis Multimix 8 USB (SoundBoard)

Shure SM57 Microphone

Two Gaming Chairs

One 6' Speaker Cable

One 10' Speaker Cable

Two 15' XLR Cables

All of this cost me $162.90

I need somebody that's looking to rock on! 

eBay Complete!

I have officially sold my first item on eBay! 

Bought the original iPhone for: $25 

Sold it for: $75

Total profit: 200%

Good stuff! 

An eBay First

I just used eBay for the first time yesterday! 

Two days ago I posted my first ever auction on eBay to sell an original iPhone 2g. 

My mom sold me her old iPhone 2g for $25. 

I put it on eBay starting the auction at $50.

eBay also has a "Buy It Now" function where you can set a price that the purchaser can get the item right away without dealing with the auction. 

I set the Buy It Now price at $75. 

I woke up the next morning and it was sold for $75 plus the $10 I put for shipping. 

I mailed it yesterday to the buyer and we will see how everything turns out. 

Once I know for sure that everything went through I will re-post to let you know the profit. 

$100!

Those four bar stools sittin' in a row just sent me past the $100 mark! 

I bought these from my dad who is trying to clear out the storage unit.

They cost me $25. 

I sold them for $100. 

Profit: 300%! 

That's me getting past the $100 mark! 

Thousand dollars here I come! 

I'm Still Here!

I didn't disappear. 

I know I haven't posted in a while.

But, if you look above you'll see that nugget of joy.

I like to call it the "Box-Rocket!" 

My mom and I are doing a road trip for Christmas. 

Right now I'm in St. George, UT. 

Anyways I am working on some purchases and will post as soon as the transaction is done. 

Hang in there Lincolnators! 

Ooooo I like that!

LINCOLNATORS!

The Christmas Tree

Yesterday, my dad told me about some stuff he was trying to get rid of in the storage unit we filled up when we moved a while ago. 

He told me about a pre-lit Christmas tree.

I jumped on it. 

I bought it from him for $5 (thanks Dad!). 

Sold it on Craigslist for $20. 

That's a 300% profit! 

Boom sauce! 

Craziness!

Tis the season to be... stressed! 

So unfortunately not everything has been going smoothly here at My 2 Lincolns. 

The $25 Game Stop gift card I sold for $20 only ended up having $9.75 on the card. 

So the guy I sold it to wanted his money back (rightly so). 

Then the guy that sold it to me, Ben, was gracious enough to give me $5 back. 

Stuff like this happens, Ben sold it to me thinking it had the full $25 on it. 

There's not much you can do about that. 

I suppose I should have checked the amount on the card before I sold it. 

Anyways, I'm down $15 from where I was.

That puts me at $22.90. 

Let the buying begin!
