Finally eBaying some stuff around the house now [View all]

When I got my new iPad Mini 3 on a whim I decided to try selling my old iPad second generation on eBay. It still ran but was having problems syncing, it couldn't keep a connection. Plus it wouldn't charge above 11%. (Yes I made sure to specify that it wasn't working all that great in the listing). I figured if it sold great if it didn't then there was always the recycling box at Best Buy. I listed it for $16 figuring there wouldn't be any bids or if there were it would either sell for $16 or a little over that. (I was making the buyer pay shipping). By the time it was done it had gotten up close to $70.

Trying to eBay off some other stuff now that's laying around the house collecting dust. I wish I had done this sooner - it was a lot easier than I thought it would be. Only problem is someone - probably my maternal unit - had come around and made all the boxes I was saving to use with presents and stuff like this magically disappear. Which meant trips to Staples to get new boxes.
