ellistyle1 0 Posted January 3, 2014 I have avoided doing this for awhile, but curiosity got the better of me. I am not sure if I am in a shitty and unique position among you. I calculated the difference between what I have bought and sold. About 10 watches have come into and out my possession from TDs, m2m and eBay over the course of a year. My spread is about -2 decent reps. Am I special kind of sick/dumb or is this common after about a year in? Please let me know if I am alone in this. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
James. 4 Posted January 3, 2014 I work of around -20% when flipping, so turning over 10 would generally equal a recoup of around 8. Hence you 2 watch deficiency. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

black263 228 Posted January 3, 2014 You could always sell to your friends at a huge profit. One of the new members is selling on at three times what he paid. Just don't try that in M2M! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Why would you want to profit like that out of your ''friends'' for? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dendo 93 Posted January 3, 2014 Its a hobby. Cheaper than gambling or drugs and a lot of fun and educational. The 20% is what it costs. A little more for me coz I give them away and am erratic on prices (remembering what you bought them for would help) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RUSH2112 11 Posted January 3, 2014 Factor in shipping paid to TD and shipping out in m2m and it's probably not 20. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

A little more for me coz I give them away and am erratic on prices (remembering what you bought them for would help) This is the affirmation I needed to hear I guess. When I sold my first house (at a loss considering improvements) our realtor suggested we chalk it up to having had a cheap place to live for 5 years. We didn't have to take a check to closing. I will put my "loss" into the same category. I appreciate this advice, Dendo. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
deju 1,885 Posted January 3, 2014 I've bought and sold on M2M and I reckon 20% is about right. I don't mind though as I've got good deals on M2M so like to continue the circle. Plus everyone's very helpful here so it's nice to keep that up Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Thang 582 Posted January 3, 2014 My buying habit is much greater than selling so I am getting more than I could sell. Deciding which one to sell is the hardest for me because I love most of what I bought. I think you are doing good. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
elp 26 Posted January 3, 2014 If I have never sold a rep, does that put me up or down the scale? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
