No way those sell for but 50% of what you’re thinking

That being said, even at 50%, you’ll do decently

I was being conservative on a lot of the numbers. The speakers are all selling for more on Reverb but I don't want to ship so I will sell for less to sell it locally.

How many jobs have you held? Do you ever stick it out with one and actually make a living?

I have had a contractor license since 2001 and have ran that business ever since. Since 2008 I have been on the other side of it working on and managing repos for banks. I also own rentals and have been in real estate for the same amount of time.

I have done other things on the side but my primary business has always been being a contractor.

Why do you assume I jump from job to job? Because I used to own a gas station? Because I do other things than just contracting?

What do you mean by this? I have a business that does a few million per year in revenue. It was doing around $3.6 million per year on average before the pandemic cut it in half. I have rentals. My Amazon business just started and does $40K per month in revenue. I will let you decide how much of a living you think I make.

Would you have bought this unit?


Hell no. My time is too valuable to be nickel and diming over used electronics or other low cost items.

Yea, man. Understood!

Today alone I cleared around $600 off of my Amazon store.



I sell about $1400 per day every day between Amazon, eBay, and the little I sell on Walmart.com and I am growing that number monthly.

I do this while shite posting here but I get it if your time is too valuable.
