Because of my work, I get relocated every year and a half to three years, and each time I do, I set up things in the new office with a new work email, new computer, and so on.
Well each time I do that, I also create new user ID's to a few sites I use daily, such as Fleabay, Craigslist, Hulu Premium, and among a few others like that, a new paid subscription to this forum as well, and this time it just dawned on me how long (in total) I've been on here.
I can't BEGIN to say how much I learned here, or how much it's impacted my life. I often sell surplus items as they relate to my job, and always having a working Fleabay account has helped me make the most of opportunities to buy and resell supplies leftover from my jobs or the leftovers of other people I work with. Over the years, even the rough totals from those sales is A LOT, and easily matches my regular income.
Discovering the profits of reselling the leftover materials was a windfall for me and the 4 or 5 guys I was working with all those years ago, but one by one our accounts were limited for one reason or another (many times it was vindictive competitors trying to keep the prices up). After moving to another jobsite soon after that where there was super high speed internet (thinking back, it was probably just cable, ha ha) I had been doing a lot of online reading and discovered the
stealth guide... and after a slow start, I've been rock solid with backups and it's really given me a lot of opportunities at the time and since.
Anyway, I just wanted to say thanks to Aspkin for this site and all the help I've gotten from it over the years, and for anybody new, the time you spend reading and understanding the
stealth guide will be the best investment you ever made if you sell stuff online (on any site, these skills translate) and maintaining VIP access to the juicy side of the forum has ALWAYS been an easy investment for me, as it's paid me back thousands of times over with the information I've learned.
I often wonder how many of those original 4 or 5 co-workers I used to sell with ever got back on Fleabay, but I would be surprised if more than one ever did. I know I only did because of this site and the
stealth guide, and for that I'm very grateful.
Celebrating my 8th year as a subscriber here...
