Hari ni ialah hari Sambal Garing Che Nor 😅. Ha ah, I ni agent. Dah jadi agent dekat 2-3 tahun kot. Tak lah aktif sangat. Biasanya sebulan satu kotak saja. Maintain requirement jadi agent. Pagi tadi pergi restock di kedai regular di Bukit Mahkota. Sebenarnya lambat sikit daripada biasa. Tapi alhamdulillah, habis juga. Terus kosong kotak kat rumah ni😊.
Pagi semalam, lepas Subuh check phone, waaahhh... ada payment ke PayPal. Ada orang beli sambal garing kat eBay. Jadinya, lepas restock tadi, pegi beli FlexiPack International envelope untuk pos sambal satu bekas ke US. Satu bekas saja. Tapi setelah pengalaman pos 5 bekas sambal beberapa bulan lepas, I dah study betul-betul semua charges dan make sure ada profit. Bukan apa, dulu menjual di eBay biasanya orang beli satu barang saja. Tapi bila kena orang beli 5 barang terus, barulah tau seksa juga 😅.
Just nak share kot la ada yang nak menjual di eBay, these are the changes you need to consider when you sell:
1. Fees to PayPal - percentage based on amount paid
2. Fees to eBay - percentage based on selling price and shipping fees (yup, both!)
3. Shipping fees - make sure shipping fees lepas dengan jayanya including tracking (you have to buy separately). You really need to know the weight and size of your product. From past experience, do not compromise on shipping fees. If you use FlexiPack, then just buy envelope or box yang bersesuaian dengan weight and size of your product. Tapi, kalau product tu tak muat masuk FlexiPack atau bentuk dia pelik sikit, you have to consider extra expenses such as buying a suitable box, bubble wrap, thick brown paper to wrap the box, etc. Itu semua cost ya.
So, bila you nak letak harga untuk your product, buatlah calculations dan consider all charges involved. Ada orang main letak saja bukan main tinggi lagi harga. Tak semestinya untung sebab makin tinggi harga, fees pun makin tinggi. Ada pulak yang buang harga pergi letak murah gila biar orang beli product dia. I really don't know how these people can do that. Shipping expenses tersasar sikit pun dah kena bayar banyak weh!
Anyway, selling on eBay is quite interesting. Paling interesting bila payment masuk kat PayPal in US Dollar 😁. Rasa macam banyak duit je! Hehehe... Tunggu hari yang sesuai bila currency exchange memihak kepada kita, barulah transfer duit masuk bank account 👍. PayPal ni salah satu tempat I simpan duit sebenarnya. Dah kumpul berbulan juga ni. Dan dah sampai waktu nak kena transfer sebab third payment untuk travel bulan November nanti dah due. Sekarang ni baru semangat dan excitement nak travel tu datang.
