I know the manilla envelopes you mentioned are cheaper, but I worry about them getting wet from rain/snow. What is your opinion on using the manilla envelopes vs. plastic?

You may already have addressed this in a post, but I've just started reading and haven't seen anything about this. I'm interested in starting to sell online, but wasn't sure about all the "little things".

If you like the rusty look (I know I do) then just wipe it off to remove any loose particals then use a spray on polyurethane. This will protect your ottoman from getting any rust on it. What a great repurpose- I'd love to see pics when you're done.<br /><br />Whitney:<br />I keep track of my sales the old fashioned way. Each Wednesday I sit down, pull up my ebay "Sold" items and add them up with a calculator- I know it's so primitive! and YES, I have started printing my own labels- I only do it for my priority envelopes because I like the 15 cent discount and the free delivery confirmation. I still do the first class envelopes the old fashioned way- but it seems so much quicker to me and cheaper (no delivery confirmation)Kelly Biggs at A Little Biggs Of Everythinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08475947407627268395noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5343939021922948155.post-78218473506143913292010-11-01T12:45:00.354-07:002010-11-01T12:45:00.354-07:00i was wondering how you keep track of all your sal...i was wondering how you keep track of all your sales? i just got an email from ebay about a subscription for a free sales report. i have an excell spread sheet that i made and use - gets the job done .. but didn't know what you find most effective and if you use this free report from ebay?? <br /><br />p.s. i finally took everyone's advice and bought mailers and labels to start printing at home - have you started yet?Whitneyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16746021323998385692noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5343939021922948155.post-36556189890657821102010-11-01T08:29:09.439-07:002010-11-01T08:29:09.439-07:00Good tips - I need to integrate more ebay selling ...Good tips - I need to integrate more ebay selling back into my routine.MommyLisahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08288191448338432734noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5343939021922948155.post-23478985854836596192010-10-31T12:55:05.535-07:002010-10-31T12:55:05.535-07:00Hey Kelly:

They are so interesting!<br /><br />Anyway, I'm actually writing with a non-ebay question. I purchased an old dutch oven metal tray around the size of a large pizza at a garage sale yesterday for a dollar. I want to use it as a tray on my ottoman. <br /><br />But it's rusty. I don't mind the rusty and like the funky metal look, so I don't plan to prime and spray paint it another color. How would you treat it? Would you spray it with some kind of sealer of some type? Would you work on it first with steel wool or something?<br /><br />Just wondered your thoughts. You seem like you know everything (seriously)!<br /><br />Peace,<br />EdieEhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13739916525253290518noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5343939021922948155.post-4259989619882096672010-10-31T06:17:25.207-07:002010-10-31T06:17:25.207-07:00I listed a few things last week (it had been at le...I listed a few things last week (it had been at lease a year) and it was fun.
