I Spent $255 on Buy-and-Sell
Post viewed 496 times, 1 so far today
I spotted some good deals on Buy.com in the past couple of days and spent $175 on six items, a 802.11g wireless adaptor ($38), a Bluetooth headset ($28), a USB flash drive ($24), a hard drive enclosure ($35), a headset ($25), and an antenna ($25), which I feel could bring me some profits if I could sell them on Amazon. Since every item carries a MIR, the actual cost after the rebates is $66. Including the other three purchases I made early this morning, the total spending on buy-and-sell this month is already $255.
Though I myself am interested in some items (for example, the Bluetooth headset), I have no intention to keep them for my personal use, unless nobody out there wants them. Actually, for all those buy-and-sell items I purchased in the past, only one, a wireless router, still remains in my hands, all others were sold sooner or later. I like to see them head to their new owners, but won't worry too much if one or two eventually get stuck in my hands. First of all, they are very cheap any way (averaged $11 a piece); secondly, I can really use some of them (of course depends on which one I have to keep); finally, since I have already profited more than $600, it won't be a total waste of money if any of them can't find a buyer in the end.
Let's see how much money I can make from them.
