  • Episode 43) The wild world of eBay Shipping
    May 23 2024

    Welcome back to Pocket Change, the podcast where two boys navigate the wild world of eBay shipping and selling! This week, Joel and Jefferson are at it again, experiencing all the highs and lows of the online marketplace. Joel is scratching his head as he notices some increased pricing that Jefferson seems to be immune to. Could it be because Jefferson is a top rated seller and Joel is just a lowly peasant in the eBay hierarchy? Oh, the drama!


    But wait, it gets even juicier! Jefferson had not one, but TWO multi sales this week that could not combine because the buyers had two accounts each with zero feedback. Like, what are the odds of that happening? Is eBay just trolling them at this point? And speaking of trolls, is eBay secretly allowing people to buy on guest accounts? The boys are onto something big here.


    And as if all that weren't enough, the boys are starting to wonder if it's time to dip their toes into the Amazon waters. Is eBay going through a slump? Should they jump ship and join the Amazon empire? Find out all this and more on this week's episode of Pocket Change! Tune in for laughs, tears, and questionable online shopping decisions.
