The cards above are neither rare or expensive. I picked them up for 75 cents and listed them for 99 cents. They sold for $31 and $33 respectively.

This small knife was a customer service giveaway at Cabela's. Since I had no need for it,
I sold it for $27!

We photograph and present the items well, often showing several views in the same shot using Photoshop. This went for $15

Often the best way to sell is to group items together. I saw one of these on e-bay and it sold for $1.25. Two weeks later, I listed this group and it sold for $89!

An item does not have to be old to sell. I confiscated this from my teenage son who found it in the boys room. A Zippo collector paid $8.50 for it.

Let us help you turn do-dads into dollars...
Everyone knows that you can sell all sorts of things on E-Bay. But who has the time and who knows how to do it? Who wants to deal with the photography, listing, shipping and packing? There are E-Bay stores that will do it for you but you have to pack up the goods and drive it to them. You pay the fees and they get most of the money. You have to figure out what will sell and what will not. You take most of the risk.
We do it differently.

HOW IT WORKS:

You call and make an appointment for us to come to your home or business location. Under your supervision we will go through and collect and inventory items that you approve for sale. You get a copy of the inventory list. The items usually fit in a small to medium size cardboard box. Many of these things you probably don't think have any real value. Things that would sell at a local yard sale for 25 cents or a dollar or two at most.

We DON'T want Grandma's antique diamond broach or the Bayliner boat in the side yard. These valuable items are better sold using conventional methods. Like our company name we are looking to help you turn small things into "junk drawer dollars".

Let's be honest. We are not expecting to sell things for a fortune. It is VERY, VERY rare to find the collectors item that you occasionally read about in the paper that sells on E-Bay for a million dollars. BUT you can make some easy money to help pay for gas or save towards having some "fun money!" Many items sell for less than five dollars, but I am here to tell you it all adds up.

- We come to you
- We pay for the listing
- We do the photography
- We handle the listing
- We handle the shipping
- YOU get cash

Selling the little items on E-Bay is a little like gambling. I do it every day. An item that does not sell this week may sell a week from now. It's also like the old fishing addage: "You never fish in the same river twice.. it's always flowing with new fish"

A few examples:

- I bought 3 old decks of cards at a yard sale for 10 cents each. One did not sell at all. One sold for 21 dollars and another for 31 dollars!

- I listed a small wrist watch with a picture of Marilyn Monroe on it that I purchased at an estate sale for a quarter. It sold for $3.25. The bidder did not pay. After settling the disputed item with E-Bay, I re-listed it and it sold for $15! Sometimes you get lucky!

When is the last time you put an old deck of cards in a slot machine and got 20 bucks? And with us, if your item does not sell, you get it back!

How much do you get and how do you know what the item really sold for:

1. You will see the final PayPal receipts. Most of our customers use PayPal or credit cards. For those that pay via Money Order or check, we show you a copy of the check or money order. We do not accept cash payments.

2. If your items don't sell... you get them back! Remember, you have the inventory sheet! We will hold all items for approximately 30 days or until they sell. At the end of that period, we return unsold items to you plus your money!

3. Because we do all the work and pay all the fees, we split the proceeds with you 50/50. And that is on the total sale price. Remember we pay all the fees and do all the shipping. For an item that sells for 32 dollars you get 16 dollars. And you will be surprised how it adds up! You owe us nothing for listing fees, packing, shipping or anything else. Those costs come out of our end. If your item does not sell you owe us nothing and you get the item back.

4. And if you are internet/computer savvy, you will be able to track the progress of your items on-line anytime!

And here is the most important thing I can tell you: We are not some National Franchise or invisible internet entity. We are a local company in Scottsdale Arizona.
