So...my giant eBay purge I just had:
132 auction listings sold 65 total packages to be shipped (some of them rather large) 8 orders (representing 10 listings) are still unpaid after two and a half days One more trip to FedEx (hopefully today) and I will have all of my paid orders out of the house. This was exhausting!

Every time I see Axonrey, I have to apologize for initially dogging this Scarlett figure, lol. I wasn’t terribly rough on it like others, but this figure is even better in hand an on display. Love it! Stands are painted and labeled!

Appreciate the sentiment. I’m about to throw that head on my Scarlett and then do some comparison shots.

This was exhausting! I had a huge past 6-7 weeks of selling also. Agreed, exhausting. Just opened mine. Great figure!!

I'm dropping out of eBay selling because of "managed payments" so this was my last hurrah before eBay shuts me down for not signing up.

Yeah, the eBay link under my avatar is the eBay account I used to sell 3d-printed stuff up until about a week and a half ago. I sold a ton of Joe stuff and some Star Wars stuff under a different ID and it all ended mid-week this week and I had 2-day handling on everything. Kinda put myself on the hook.

It's far, far cheaper to run my own ecommerce website for the same commission I've been paying eBay anyway. Over the past fourteen months I've paid eBay more on my sales than it will cost to buy a 3-year hosting package and domain registration fees for my own site. In other words, if I can make even 1/3rd the sales volume on my own website it will pay for itself in savings. I have the chops to do the programming and database stuff myself, so no cost there other than time. It's all a hobby anyway, so I figured why not?

I don't care much about eBay wanting to skim the payment processing fees for themselves, but I'm not trusting them to secure my social security number and driver's license. Their website is a shit show of sloppy work. Dead links, broken features, bugs, etc. Not a well-oiled machine even from a layman's perspective. Once blackhats know there is a massive trove of identity theft resources waiting there I think they'll be breached pretty severely. Even if hackers don't get them, they're likely to inadvertently leak info anyway (it has happened to me before). So giving them the crown jewels of identity confirmation? That's a firm "no" from me. Making it mandatory just means they're kicking me out and losing 10% of my sales rather than gaining an additional 2.9%. I'm sure most people are going to go along with it so they'll more than make up for it elsewhere but I'm just not going to play.

I'm definitely not mad at this cold weather. But I'm sure this is child's play compared to what our northern brothers are experiencing. I'm loving it though.
Me, the wife and our two boys are in Kerrville, TX right about to head to Whataburger for their breakfast platters, scrambled eggs, sausage, buttermilk biscuits, hash browns, and pancakes. Then we head off to Hill Country State Natural Area for some hiking. I need to know for scientific purposes, where did you get those classified stands?
