Posted my second order today—DID NOT MESS UP POSTAGE!!!

So today I sent out my second order. Some of you may recall what an idiot I WAS at postage and many of you sent me advice. THANK YOU.

So though my store is still running at a loss . . . you know I had to buy my vintage inventory. I'm still happy I've sent out two orders since I've been open ummm two weeks or so.

Signed.

Looking on the bright side.

Shawn :)

It's definately a learning experience and takes a little while to start to feel comfortable with the whole process. Glad you did not mess up the postage :)

But congrats on two sales already! That's great especially considering that you've only been open such a short time!!

You'll be turning a profit before you know it :)

Cool shop! Congratulations on the quick sales and the fact that you already have 49 items in your shop. That's quite an accomplishment!

Congratulations! And, (like Janessa said) considering you've only been open a short time.

I had issues with postage myself for a while. Now I can pretty much tell by weight of the finished bag what I need to charge in order to not be taking a hit on postage! You'll get there!

Thanks girls. You both have awesome shops. I'm not creative like that. Just a junker/picker at heart : )

Nothing wrong with searching for treasures. I enjoy doing that too but I wouldn't know a real treasure from a worthless piece of junk. :)

Congrats!

You'll soon be an 'old hand' at pricing your shop so that you cover your purchase expenses and still make a profit.

It just takes time

Keep up the good work! Shipping can be hard to wrangle into shape at first! I echo what others said about sales after being open only a short while is a great thing! Congratulations and hang in there for the long haul ! :)
