If you buy on there, just be prepared to get sucked down a rabbit hole! One seller was selling Paper house and Jolies type stickers and I spent over $100! They were $2 each and I couldn't stop myself.
I have a package coming from one seller or another every few days. I thought Peachy Cheap was bad about sucking me in, but this particular board on facebook is truly dangerous for your wallet.
The upside is you can find all kinds of older product you wish you had. |

I had no such warning at alliexpress, kinda wish I had lol I only seem to see ‘junk’ on my Facebook sales your lucky. If it’s not junk then they want exorbitant prices for it - yeah no I’m too cheap for that |

I only seem to see ‘junk’ on my Facebook sales your lucky. Scrapbook Deals is a group of sellers and you can join the group. Sellers can only have one album of stuff at a time. I have 3 sellers I go to often and 2 others I look but haven't purchased. Jessica Orrell had over 700 3D type stickers yesterday for $2.25 each. I buy also from Peggy Fuller Allegro often. I have purchased paper from Annie Valenzuela for 25 cents a sheet. Add in postage of course. They usually have a minimum purchase like $5 or $8 and some will let you add to your box to fill it if they add to their albums. Check it out and join and see if you see anything! |

My friend has sold a bunch of stuff on Facebook, but she sells her stuff in lots because it’s way too much work to sell things individually. I honestly can’t fathom how much work it would be to take photos of a bunch of stickers (or Jolies) to sell individually.

Well the one I bought all these stickers from made $100 off me in about 10 minutes! I get that. But how long did it take her to take photos/scans of the products, upload them all, etc? Definitely more than the ten minutes it took you to shop. And then more time still to go back and change or remove the listings for the sold items. Just seems like a whole lot of effort for not a lot of gain especially if you’re already selling at a loss to begin with. |

crazy4scraps I sell on a couple of FB groups and it is a lot of work! I typically upload things a few times per month and plan on spending a couple of hours sending invoices, packaging products, and working with buyers. I am not selling as my primary source of income, just getting rid of products I no longer have a use for. Any money I make is a bonus!

I'm pretty sure some sellers are resellers or Tuesday Morning shoppers, not destashers, so they aren't selling at a loss.

Maybe for dies, stamps or tools or even paper pads, but I can’t see doing that for little piddly stuff. Who’s going to buy stickers at TM for .99 or $1.49 and hope to sell them for $2? That wouldn’t even make sense. |

Love those groups. They are the only places I have found that sell old hotp,provo craft and the like from early 2000s at decent prices.

Ummmm maybe whenever I get my butt in gear to get rid of my stamps that would be a place to go after here.

That wouldn’t even make sense. Maybe it's a situation like workingclassdog . Or a hoarder situation where there was an estate sale. Remember that one that was posted here that was basically a warehouse of her stash? 
ETA: Or maybe a store finally clearancing their inventory. I have one of those in my town. I keep patiently watching.  |

Just seems like a whole lot of effort for not a lot of gain especially if you’re already selling at a loss to begin with. The secret is to take group shots, then 'paint out' with a blob of digital paint or a graphic the items that are sold if you don't sell the entire image's worth of stuff at once for small things. Doesn't take long at all once you know how. Just lay out your items flat, snap picture, upload and done. |
