Selling Online

Most of us these days buy stuff online. Or at least we buy things online here in the sticks because we can get much more than if we were relying on what’s available right in our area. I am so glad of that. I have no idea what we would be doing without that. Well, yes I do. We would be traveling to some large city to buy what we need meaning that we would buy that sort of thing once in a great while.

But for those of us who have sold online there is another situation. I used to sell on eBay where you can literally sell almost anything. I used to sell fantastic Christian games that were challenging and very good. The problem that I found right away was that I had to have a good shipping container. Now we do have a box manufacturer here in the area but they sell wholesale to businesses. While I considered me a business, it wasn’t what they thought. So, what I really needed were custom boxes since they were an odd size. Do you think I could find them? Nope. We ended up using other things that were not specifically for that purpose. I sure wished I could have the right container since what I was shipping was crushable. I think I would do it differently these days. Live and learn.
