I can’t believe you worded it that way, I was just talking about this. I’ve been selling in the same category for 16 months and have changed my time only twice in that period. I generally average $125/hr. Lately it felt weird the first thirty minutes - no counter bids and I was starting my bids lower than the “Whatnot” price and way lower than retail or other outlets/ comps , but just wasn’t getting any action. However last week it turned around and was one of my best streams.

@Brett Jones too funny, l looked but alas, I was thwarted by a jewelry ninja 🥷

@Tina Hartman gotcha and thanks 🙏

@Liza Ervolina my family is from Uniontown or Hartville Ohio. We moved to Florida in 77 and once you live in Florida, I had to wonder why anyone settle down in Ohio. I shouldn’t be so hard on Ohioans tho

This reminds me of the industry that I’m in, commercial fishing or recreational sport fishing. Some of these guys think just because they spent more money on their boat they know more or have more rights and when they speak to others, they certainly don’t do it with respect. All I can say is witnessing this as I was growing up made me decide. I was never going to be that way. I prefer being the guy that takes you out, shares everything I know so that you enjoy yourself and could possibly continue on with your own boat. I’ve never liked snobs, bullies or tattle tails. I figure they get their comeuppance in the end. I’d rather be the guy who shared and supported you than the guy who’s looking down his nose at you. There’s only 269 days till Christmas and Santa is watching

@Melinda Lewis Thank you, I’m a complete novice in the jewelry business and little hints like this really helps 🫡🙏🕺
