Now, Where Is It?

The one thing I don’t like about moving everything around is, not being able to find what you’re looking for. Sure everything has it’s spot, but it’s hard to find the cards that you really don’t sell. Like today. I sold a Psylocke, from X-Men Series 2. Now, I listed these cards a couple of years ago, and I believe this is the second card I sold from that set.

Over time things will go to where they belong, but in the meantime in between the daily listings and shipping, we need to slowly move everything to it’s new place.

Plus I need to start labeling things. It’ll be a lot easier to find things when they are labeled with what’s inside them, instead of opening up all these white cardboard … I mean Kardboard boxes, and taking a look inside to see what’s in there.

We really don’t worry about these things until we need to. Then it’s too late.

Fun Filled Weekend

We just had a long weekend, and with no plans of doing anything, we decided to remodel and reorganize. The whole office. We started Sunday morning, and got most of it done by Monday night. Now it’s almost to where I want it to be. Just have to organize all of the bulk again. But, this won’t be the first or the last time we’ll have to sort the bulk. As new bulk comes in we have to sort it, and place it with our existing inventory.

It’s a fun process.

Put some music on, grab a beverage and go through the bulk. Always hoping that we’ll find a diamond. Sometimes we do, sometimes we don’t, but we always find a couple of rare cards.

Then it was off to getting everything ready to be tracked, and I hod one item that no matter what I tried, I could not get my shipping label printed. I had been trying for 2 days when I finally decided to contact eBay.

They looked into it and finally told me, that their stamps can not be used to send cards to P.O. Boxes. So, I did what any one would do. I wrote the address on the envelope and stuck a Forever Stamp on it, and sent it on it’s merry way.

And, that is how we spent our weekend.
