Bingo... aside from the fact getting rid of 60 at once may not happen immediately. I did however make multiple listings for 10, 15, 20, 25 and 30 for maximum exposure. The loan would be convenient for time’s sake but I won’t be greedy and say I still need it. And yes, I could very well sell all of those antennas immediately at $2 a pop... but I’d rather get closer to $3.

Happy to hear that Lady L eventually showed up and help you out and yes, better to wait a bit to sell them for more even if it's $1+.
Besides the cable for the screen can wait 2-3 weeks especially when you will not need any loan to cover it.

Btw multiple listings is a good way for better exposure. Cool

If I were able to get a loan for $249.57, I can pay my sellers fees for eBay and get rid of those antennas in a week or so and pay the loan with interest.

Now that you no longer have to deal with your seller fees, I believe you no longer "really" need a loan for the second part since you could easily solve that part "in a week or so", am I right?

It seems that this is the only (and better) way for fixing/ selling this screen but still, the only "collateral" is your word and you know already that it doesn't count. Sad

Perhaps if you try to sell them elsewhere except e-Bay, like a store or something?

I can’t even argue with that and I’m sorry for implying otherwise that it is without risk. I was hoping the amount I was asking wasn’t as unrealistic compared to what I’ve seen posted. Yes, this offer plain sucks as far as time is concerned, it could be a couple months before it sells.

I went to look in my garage and may have found something(s) that could be legitimate collateral. I have 101 brand new antennas, (s/n: SA30M36130 P/N: 00XJ094) — A quick search on eBay Sold/completed listings and you’ll find they sell for $4-5 a pop all day long. I know it’s still way short after factoring in sellers fees, shipping fees and taxes. I just want it to be recognized I’m 100% committed and legit.

The problem with physical collateral is that you have to ship it to the lender which in almost all cases is not near your place, thus a lot of expenses. That's why alt coins are by far the best type of collateral. So unless you find a lender near you and who will accept it, this collateral can't be used. Sad

If I had altcoins I’d have exchanged them for btc and sold them to pay for the TV/eBay lol — sadly I have only $15 in eth and $45 in Storj. If I can ship it to anywhere in the usa it wouldn’t be too bad, the antennas are quite light, it wouldnt be more than $10.

I know i’m self implicating my collateral by what I’m about to say. If I were able to get a loan for $249.57, I can pay my sellers fees for eBay and get rid of those antennas in a week or so and pay the loan with interest. I’m probably beating my head against a wall at this point.

Hi folks, I have an atypical request that may land a nice profit for whoever is interested.

I recently acquired an out of warranty surgical TV from work (a Barco MDSC-2242). A quick google search and you will see this is a several thousand dollar screen. I have isolated the problem and confirmed the power supply is dead. The replacement part (CCB250PS24) runs for roughly $230 and I know how to fix it. I plan on selling it on eBay but the only hitch is I have $260 in sellers fees I haven’t payed from being out of work the last few months.

I have no collateral but I figured it can be done systemically so you lose nothing. Either send me $230 for the power supply or you can order it and have it shipped directly to me, doesn’t matter to me either way. Once the power supply is swapped out and I can verify 100% functionality, you can pay me the rest for eBay. In the unlikely event it still has an issue, I return the part and you get refunded and we call it a day. I have a long-standing ebay account with over 300+ bought and sold items. I will do my due diligence to make sure that purchaser is also very reputable. I planned on starting a Buy it now at $5000 and bring it down $100 per week until it sold. I will also set it to local pickup because of the size and weight of the screen, it is literally 50+ pounds. Feel free to PM or reply to this post to discuss any intricate details. By all means consider this a rough draft.

Thanks!
Maxi

So you want a $500 loan split in 2 ways, one for the part and one for paying fees to re-enable your eBay account of yours, right?
Even if your offer looks tempting in a matter of profit, neither the 1st nor the 2nd loan provides a solid safety for the lender that you will do what you say that you do.

No offense but without valid collateral, the lender can only rely on your word. And even if he trust your word that you repay him, the time that you will need for selling it can be more than a lot. Not to mention that until that moment, the lender will not get a single sat while you keep earning by selling other stuff (your account will be back on track).

I can’t even argue with that and I’m sorry for implying otherwise that it is without risk. I was hoping the amount I was asking wasn’t as unrealistic compared to what I’ve seen posted. Yes, this offer plain sucks as far as time is concerned, it could be a couple months before it sells.
