Estate Sale Pricing, eBay Algorithm Changes & Weird Buyers | Pocket Change PodcastIn this episode of Pocket Change, the hosts riff on estate sale and Goodwill pricing, impatient buyers, and how reselling always pulls you back in. Joel reports a strong August (up “1,000%” but only $41 profit), while the other host focuses on building YouTube audiobook and true crime channels using AI tools, verification, and faster processing setups, and they discuss new monetization watch-hour requirements. They compare notes on possible eBay algorithm shifts, test eBay’s priority promotion/pay-per-click ads, and share sales of the week (flannel pajama pants and a cheap yard-sale KJV Oxford Bible). Other topics include a rude lowballer, payment delays, address-change requests, the value of buyer messaging, feedback highlights, eBay label QR code issues, tougher action on non-paying buyers, eBay Live growth and events, eBay history notes, listener comments, “Pick or Pass” items, and odd Kraft mac and cheese commercials.00:00 Welcome and Algorithm Jokes00:39 Estate Sales and Thrift Pricing01:42 Buyer Shipping Complaints02:36 Weekly Numbers and Profit Talk05:20 YouTube Side Hustles08:56 Monetization and Listing Grind09:51 eBay Algorithm Changes11:04 Priority Promoted Listings Test13:43 Sales of the Week16:42 Shipping Costs and Lowballers20:31 Offer Drama and Address Issues23:38 Feedback of the Week27:10 eBay News and QR Code Bug29:49 Non Paying Buyers and Live Shopping31:46 Niche Selling Talk32:13 Ebay Live Event News32:51 Using Chatgpt For Research34:22 Ebay Time Machine35:25 Amex Removed Debate39:05 Listener Comments Roundup40:40 Shipping Wrong Address Advice46:58 Refund Before Return Warning48:18 Pick Or Pass Cards51:43 Pick Or Pass Bible Find54:31 Mac And Cheese Ads57:32 Final Thoughts Signoff
