The buyer uses the ebay item no on the box to know when his purchase has come in and what is in a box without opening. You might say it is his inventory no.

Does this buyer resell on ebay or have a store.

Yes u can do some major flipping on ebay. At one time I would buy at online auctions and resell on another site. However after awhile the margins got too small.Never had to leave the basement except to ship

I know a book guy that buys at Thrifts and sells on Amazon .He has about 3800 books currently listed.All he does is scans the books to find what they are worth.

I have argued so long and hard with ebay on the phone that they have actually changed company policy about returns

USPS Priority mail gives u tracking and insurance plus it is quick. Their Flat Rate boxes fixs cost of shipping everywhere in the USA. Ebay Global Shipping uses Fed Ex and is the only way to fly. The Seller is only responsible to their Hub in KY.

The biggest ticket item I ever sold on the bay was the Actress Lana Turner's Tiffany Sterling Silver Tea Service Set it went to NYC. Last year I sold an item on another international site to a guy in the Netherlands whose business is metal coating stuff for use out in the North Sea oil rigs. He even flew an agent of his in from OK to examine it, paid his expenses of a car, hotel and an xray of the item. I had bought that item at an auction down under in OZ .
