Sell your Wacky Packages

 
Perhaps you just found your shoebox of Wacky Packages or you picked up a stack at a flea market, and you want to raise a bit of extra spending cash from them. You have a couple of choices, depending on how much time you have to put into it, and how soon you need the money. Basically the harder you work the more you can make. If you don't have a lot of time (and a scanner) and just want to get rid of them easily and let someone else do the work to retail them, then you should write me (greg@wackypacks.com) for a fair offer (I pay top dollar!). We are always buying odd lots and collections. We like to do the work because Wackys are our thing. Generally the difference between what I can pay and what you can get on ebay (with a lot of work) will amount to less than minimum wage for your time. It may sound easy to list a bunch of auctions, but it really takes hours upon hours, scanning, filling out the endless forms, answering the emails, getting payent, running to the bank, packing, shipping, dealing with deadbeats or unhappy buyers, leaving feedback, etc.. it's actually enormously time-consuing to run auctions...
 
BUT, if you do have a lot of time and energy for this (you might even find it fun), then you can run ebay auctions. To run successful auctions you have to do several things. There is another way to make the best money for your wackys. That is to exaggerate, overgrade, lie, use fine print, give misleading info, and don't stand behind your product. You will not get any repeat customers, but maybe you can rip a few off and run. This of course is pure sarcasm and not advocated, I write this to point out that nearly 50% of wacky sellers on eBay seem to prefer this strategy. This is why buyers on ebay are generally very wary and will shy away from your auctions unless you can do everything possible to convince them you are being honest (which is why high-res scans are great, words lie much easier than pictures).
