Yea, you get attention for turning .50 into a trip to Japan, ask people to follow your journey and then do whatever the frick you please. Pretty slimy.
what exactly is slimy about it? It’s not like he’s grifting or conning people out of money. I couldn’t care less where he spends the money.

Yes I know he’s selling other peoples shite, you can still have some sort of integrity.


Integrity is admitting I spent the money on a Vegas trip, so I have to start over.

Being dishonest is just starting back up where I left off, not telling everyone I spent the money I’ve already made, and pretending I still have $3000+ I made off the $1 golf hole flag I sold last year.

You don’t have to say you’re bent out of shape it’s obvious from reading your posts calling me and Mingo out for disagreeing with you. Neither of us said anything against you personally in our original posts yet you got all defensive.

(I did call your opinion stupid before you responded so I’ll give you that)

Personally when I get invested in following something like this I just enjoy seeing the payoff that’s really all I meant.

you could use it to promote more long-form videos if you wish to use Youtube for that


YT has shorts, which this video is also posted to, I just shared the other video. My videos will start to get longer. The sale I bought this at, the video is 18 mins long, but there wasn’t any purchases worth posting the video for, except the purchase of this shirt, to restart the Japan trip.

I get that, I was bummed when it went away too but I didn’t think anything bad about antique as a result. Not like he did anything wrong.

It’s not “can I reach my goal”, it’s how long will it take to reach my goal. Last year was a slow year for me on eBay, I only did $22,000 in sales.

No, that was gross sales, before eBay fees, shipping, etc. Plus the amount I spent on buying the items.

Like I said, it was my slowest year for eBay in years.

Only the OT could find something to bitch about with following a dude turn yard sale items into an international vacation trip.
