We have an outbuilding where all my stock and the people I sell for stock is stored. Thankfully someone else does the packing and Royal Mail collect it at 4.30 every afternoon. Living on a farm I have no choice but to work from home. I wouldn't have it any other way

oh man I get so disorganized and lose so much stuff working from home.

It is extremely tough to keep everything organized and the fact is my inventory shifts from 50 items to 5000 in a single week as I sell items in bulk offline to small retailers.

But the good part is that I don`t have a Miss to bug me. But I heard they can really do alot of work and help out.

If you live in a home you could have made/build a small shed in your backyard to hold inventory.

I pack my stuff at home now. But since my sister lives with me, I have the living room a complete mess when I am packing stuff. I only do about 10 per day but I am ramping up.

My sister hates it, she is a clean freak.

i do everything at home

i have a 4 bedroom house and i use one room for everything,,,computers, making,,,packing,,,shipping

i average about 800 shipments a month( if i could just get these 2 new st ealth above 80 items a month i'd have to open another room)

anywhere from 4.00 to 30.00 items....even tho i do get about ten 100 to 300 dollar sales a month

i love it

oh, btw...the room is only 14' x 14' x 8'

everything is in there except my cardboard which i keep in a small area in the garage

eventually, soon i hope, i will open another room because with all the suspensions e bay is giving out, i do seem to be selling alot more lately. I have noticed a couple of my competitors are no longer around.
