Helen "Giraffer" Ziber Smith

Helen Ziber Smith will be sadly missed within the eBay community as she passed away today in peace
under the loving care of Hospice with her family near by. She touched many hearts.
eBay Id: Giraffer. Please take a moment to visit her ME page and pay a bit of tribute. Helen was so proud to be an eBay member:
http://members.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewUserPage&userid=giraffer

Her wishes were to not send flowers but to make a donation to a Hospice of choice.

List an item on eBay and include in the title "For Helen Giraffer" As an eBay community we CAN make a difference in honor of Helen.
The donations can be anywhere from 10% to 100% using eBay Giving Works. Search for a Hospice in your area by selecting the State:
http://donations.ebay.com/donation/GW4CController?ACTION=BrowseAction&SUB_ACTION=GetSearchResult&name=Hospice&state_id&area_id&topic_id&ebay_user_id=null&pageSize=10
Or if you prefer, make a donation to your local hospice in loving memory of Helen Ziber Smith aka: Giraffer

I've know Helen for years through the eBay group and boards. She was a groupie and a boardie always willing to give a tip and send you in the right direction like an eBay crossing guard! My first eBay live event was Boston 2007 and I was looking forward to finally meeting up with her. My first stop was the eBay Group room and my eBay life changed from that moment forward!

It was not only awesome to spend some time with her and finally meet her in person, BUT to watch her receive the Hall of Fame award was awesome! I was so happy for her and I was so excited to report it to the groups while everyone that didn't attend was cheering her on within the eBay group land and boards, The eBay community was honoring her at eBay live and online! What a cool experience that was as I was a bit of a groupie addict myself! :-)

Who knew I would actually be following in her footsteps the following year also receiving the Hall of Fame award, WOW and then we both were selected to pass along the charity checks on stage with John Donoahe and Lorrie Norrington.

Oh I could go on as there are so many fond memories I have with Helen so for now, I'm happy to know she is free from cancer and pain. Life is far too short so treasure those moments and appreciate your friends and family because one day, you will be missed too just like me. RIP Dear Girraffer!

Success is just a Click away at eBay

2012-01-09T10:20:00.000-08:00

When you list items on eBay Success is just a click away!

It only takes ONE click for a buy it now to be secure and thanks to PayPal we can be even more sure!

Listing items one by one paying attention to the final sum.

Adding keywords is important. Type them in and check again. Forget about WOW, Look here at ME although one I do like if it fits is ..... FREE SHIPPING!

Success is just a click away!

A click to list, a click to buy either way it's a click away!

My eBay friend at the Depression Glass Warehouse likes to say:
"List more - sell more! Can't sell it if it ain't listed!"

I love that motto as it's so true, If you can't click to list then people cannot click to buy!

Success is just a click away at eBay!

HAPPY NEW YEAR!
Wishing everyone a success and happy clicking in 2012!

We are clicking success at VOL!

Do you need Cash to sell on eBay?

2011-08-22T15:58:00.000-07:00

Most people start selling on eBay by listing items they‘re not using from around the house. This can only last for so long because eventually they run out of “stuff” to sell. Once the “well” is dry it will be time to seek out more items to list on eBay.

Options may include:

· Resale shops
· Wholesale Warehouses
· Flea markets
· Garage Sales
· Online

Building inventory can be costly. Running out of inventory can also lead to running out of cash. Today I’m here to tell you about an amazing online source that can meet those needs called: Kabbage.com. The folks at Kabbage can provide the funds needed to get an eBay business back up and running. The process is painless. An answer can be given in just under five minutes. Simply fill out an application and the Kabbage search engines will do the rest.

What they are looking for? They are looking for serious eBay sellers just like you! Sellers with an established track record can be approved faster because the proof is in the online selling history. Not only do they take a look at a credit report, bad credit is okay because eBay feedback has more pull in the world of online selling than any credit report can produce. Kabbage will pull information using the combination of PayPal and eBay. So, all those items that were sold from around the house, not only increased the household income and cleaned up the house clutter, it also helped create a history trail of online selling.

Once approved, then freedom will ring!

There is nothing like the joy of bringing an eBay career to the “next” selling level. Climbing up the ladder of eBay success with the help of Kabbage.com and a firm business plan will increase the odds to eBay selling success.

Our Troops Shop and Sell on eBay Too

2011-01-27T19:06:00.000-08:00

Are you offering shipping to the military or do you decline them to buy from you? I've seen sellers posting on their listings that they will not ship to APO addresses and when I see this I think "WOW you are an AMERICAN?" Not only are they hurting their business but they are not supporting our troops fighting for our country!

Don't miss out on that next sale by not shipping to an APO address. It is seriously easy as pie and if you think different, BRING IT ON we want to hear your point of view!
Here is my video with my point of view:

Paid nonprofits using eBay Giving Works

2010-12-27T06:13:00.000-08:00

I like to pay off my eBay Giving Works balance on a regular basis. I suggest other eBay sellers do the same. It's better to pay off the balance and not let it build up for a month and spend it by mistake. I've seen many sellers do that over the years and this can hurt your business. Keeping good records and paying as you go works better for most.

Here is a copy of the bill I just paid:

Make Your Own Auction Templates

2010-10-05T09:34:00.000-07:00

I've been making my own eBay listing templates since I first learned html about 8 years ago! Back in the day we had to know html to add fancy color and fonts to our eBay listings. Now eBay had made things much easier for us all with the great additions to the listing box. Making the words BOLD and colorful is as easy as writing an email!

The other added bonus is to be able to switch it over from a STANDARD box to an HTML description box and this is the area where you would add the html code from the template :

I've created an easy to use STEP-BY-STEP DVD showing you HOW to make your OWN auction templates in what I call "Mom Terms!" You can follow along directly from your computer screen while watching the presentation. Pause it while you create your very own auction templates!

The dvd includes an eBook with an actual template for you to use as a guide! It's easy to change it and add your own colors, graphics and designs! YOU DO NOT NEED TO KNOW HTML to understand how to use this template!
I will be happy to answer any questions you may have after purchase!

“ This was the most informative & beneficial classes that Danna has taught.

“ This was a comprehensive, and entertaining webinar that included shortcuts for people who do know HTML including a couple of great test sites and very basic beginning HTML for beginners. The shortcuts are great for eBay templates or blog posts! ”

Very informative. I am already making templates.

Saint Joseph is Selling Homes on eBay

2010-10-04T07:23:00.000-07:00

Many of my eBay friends know that we have listed our home up for sale last week and I had a lovely friend suggest we bury a Saint in our backyard to help sell the house! I've seriously never heard of this before and not sure if its a "Catholic" thing or not but the idea did stick in my mind to give it a try!
She told me to seek out a shop locally but my favorite place to shop is EBAY and WOW there are all kind of Saints being sold on eBay to help sell your house! People are selling actual KITS! lol

I have found it very challenging to seek out the RIGHT kit!

The search choices include:

Saint Joseph Statue Sell Your Home Kit

Saint Joseph HOME SALE Kit

Saint Joseph Realtor

Spanish Saint Joseph

This is the one I have decided to purchase:

**SAINT JOSEPH STATUE SELL YOUR HOME KIT The "ORIGINAL "* Good price with included FREE shipping**

They have sold 411 of these from their eBay store! And I used my eBay Bucks so I had a GREAT discount on it too! ((smiles))

I will do a follow-up video when I bury the statue and we will see how long it takes to SELL MY HOUSE! Stay tuned for the continuation!

OH and for those looking for a home, We have decided to include a FREE POOL with our home:

VIEW the listing -> LARGE HOME FOR SALE OCALA FLORIDA
We actually have FOUR BATHROOMS not three!

.........................
...............

WOW I just bought my Saint and read this headline in my email :

Pending home sales rise 4.3 percent in August

1977 General Mills Cereal Boxes

2010-09-24T12:47:00.000-07:00

Today I was researching General Mills items because I have a 1977 Toy Tree house and soon learned that my house was not worth as much as the 1975 houses BUT what I did learn .... Cereal boxes from this year have high profits!
Check this out :

SOLD on JULY 12, 2010

GENERAL MILLS 1977 FRANKEN BERRY CEREAL BOX FLAT

Opening bid $9.99 and it sold for: $599.00

.............................

BOO Berry had 13 bids and sold for $536.00

...........................

COUNT CHOCULA CEREAL Sold $405.00

.......................

This is why I love Terapeak so much!

Without this kind of research I would be a lost eBay seller!

My Tree house is worth nothing but NOW I KNOW to watch for these cereal boxes when I hit the thrift stores!

I LOVE BEING A TREASURE HUNT SELLER!

I could not do it without Tereapeak!

Power Listing Day

2010-09-23T08:07:00.000-07:00

Today is my official "Power Listing Day!"
Also known as "PLD" according to my calendar for the last 10 + years! This is the day that falls on the week before the end of the month!

I created this "eBay Holiday" to remind me that it was my last chance to make money with a seven day auction before the month would end! It was also the last chance to have an item count as part of the "Power Seller" program that eBay had in place! Trying to meet my quota and get the bills paid. This system has worked well for me all these years.

Now, we have the "Top Rated Seller" as we say goodbye to the eBay Power Seller program BUT, that will never be the end of "Power Selling Mom!" ((smiles))

I still love the 7 day auctions and I love to challenge myself each month as I celebrate in my eBay world "Power Listing Day!"

Join in on the fun and challenge by marking your calendar the final day of the month to make your quote of listing items.

At VirtualOnlineLearning.com I've shared the challenge with members as we get excited in a group of "Power Lister's" posting away on this self-proclaimed holiday of mine "PLD!"

HAPPY SELLING -- HAPPY POWER LISTING DAY!

Top 10 List of Student Essentials found on eBay

2010-09-12T14:16:00.000-07:00

Kids—tumbling on the floor, jumbling alphabet blocks, and in the blink of an eye, they become: teenagers—scrambling to class, hauling piles of textbooks. As we grow older, we spend more to fulfill our ever-increasing needs. The Back-To-School season is a chance to cut down on costs and maximize our benefits, while keeping our sense of style in place. Simple yet original. Likable yet affordable. Colorful yet functional.

Many students have just completed their first week back to school and now is the time to shop for those items that may have been forgotten or were left of the original list!

PowerSellingMom's Top Ten List of student essentials:

North Face Borealis Backpack
Perfect for long treks, whether on the way to school or down a hiking trail, the unisex Borealis backpack has space for anything and everything. 17” laptops, unabridged dictionaries, liter bottles—you name it. Special padding on the straps and back panel make carrying the world on your shoulders a lot more stress-free.

Water Bobble
Water is a necessity, and clean water is a luxury, costing each American at least $55 a year. However, the new water bottle makes “fresh” and “pure” requirements for your water. Its neon-bright carbon filter is made to distill 40 gallons of water. Refreshing, reusable, and rewarding.

USB Surf Drive
Even cyberspace has waves to ride and tides to overcome. Keep track and store your virtual documents in a USB Surf Drive, cleverly designed in the shape of a surfboard. 2 GB of memory and a simple yet original exterior is all you need to surf the net.

Mini Dot ‘n’ Go Glue Dots
Everyone knows that some ideas are better in their heads than on paper. Collages become sticky globs, and posters transform into gooey chunks. Next time you are assigned an art project, dispense a glue dot to thwart catastrophe and increase your chances of an A+ assignment.

Sterilite Storage Crate
Heavy duty plastic holds this box together, and organization keeps your life in place. Storage crates are handy for stacks of graded tests, libraries of used binders, and collections of yearbooks and textbooks. The Sterilite storage crate comes in a variety of colors, from “splashed white” to “blizzard blue”. Think outside the box, and inside the crate.

Masterlock 1590D Resettable Combination Lock
Dates of the French Revolution, the six trigonometric functions, the periodic table of the elements—of all the information a high schooler must take time to memorize, a lock combination should not be a priority. Set and reset your own combinations using letters and numbers on the Masterlock 1590D lock. A steel shackle protects against lock cutters, and the classic lock dial glides easily from character to character—cracking open your lock is simple as ABC and easy as 123.

Dry-Erase Cork Board
To-do lists, memos, photos, and clippings spell chaos when thrown haphazardly on a desk. But on a bulletin board, cut-outs and graphics make for an inspirational medley, while notes-to-self and lists are friendly alerts on magnetic boards. A snapshot of Fluffy, a column by Joel Stein, and a birthday reminder for Aunt Wilma. The dry-erase cork board dedicates a space on your wall to tidbits of your life.

Clear Bubble Umbrella
A rainy day is squinting in the rain, shielding from the wind, and fighting to keep binders dry. With the 60’s-style clear bubble umbrella, the clear PVC canopy allows for unobstructed vision; the steel frame prevents flipping in or out; and the wide dome shelters you and your art project from downpour. You might as well be walking on sunshine.

Clocky Alarm Clock on Wheels

The two greatest inventions in history, the wheel and the clock, have been fused together to get you out of bed. At the designated time, the clock leaps off your nightstand and into a frenzied escape while beeping obnoxiously. To turn off the alarm would require a hunt for the getaway snooze-button. Guaranteed to wake the unconscious and force out the drowsiness.

Stapleless Staple-Free Stapler
Less is often more, as proven by the stapleless stapler. With one click, the stapler makes a small slit in your book report and stitches the pages together. What you spend is costless, but what you save is priceless.

BACK -TO-SCHOOL SALE

2010-08-08T10:27:00.000-07:00

What Does Back to School Time Mean To You?

It means different things for different people.

Traditionally it is the start of a new school year.
While many of the schools still have traditional school calendars, many are on a year round schedule. Of
course, colleges and universities are getting ready to start their fall semester, signifying the start of the the
"traditional" school year.

It seems that each year the lists of "needs" gets longer. There's new clothes, shoes, pencils, paper, book
bags, book covers, back packs, and Green lunch supplies. It means all the extracurricular activities too,
sports equipment including football, wrestling, cheerleading, basketball, soccer, track, baseball, maybe hockey,
gymnastics, swimming, golf and bowling. Did I leave any out? There is band, theater,
drama, chorus, and the list goes on and on. Let's not forget the teacher's, gifts, supplies, clothing,
etc. And maybe it's time for Moms and Dads to work on their work at home income, make some extra cash for
the Holidays, or just catch up on a forgotten project.

So to kick off School Year 2010-2011, come on and join us at Virtual Online Learning for
lots of Great Buys!
Save time, save money, and shop Green by saving fuel for your vehicle
and energy for yourself. The energy will be much better spent on the fun things that the waning days of
summer have to offer.

Join us for great buys starting August 8, 2010 and running until August 15,
2010.
More listings will be added as the day/week goes on, so be sure and check
back often throughout the week.

Happy Back To School Days!

Selling the kids stuff on eBay

2010-05-30T20:58:00.000-07:00

I've finally accepted the fact that my kids do not want their stuff! The twins will be 24 next month and my son will be 22! They have no interest in the tubs of "stuff" I've saved for them. So, I will do what I do best and that is to sell their stuff on eBay!

Parents can only hold onto stuff for so long for our kids. I had this reality check while my oldest twin is preparing to move west. We were sorting through items of trophies, precious moments, baby dolls, beanie babies and on and on when she said "Mom, I don't want this stuff!"

I was in shock! How could she not want these beautiful treasured items? I looked at her sister and she was like "Mom, I don't want it either!"
OMG I felt like they ganged up on me, but why?

These items are only materialistic things that I saved since they were born, you would think it meant something to them?

Soon after they left my home I sat in the middle of the floor and started to sort the tubs that they had no interest in and then it hit me! I saved all this stuff for me! It was for me to have a moment to sit and cry and remember the times of days gone by. I didn't ever want to forget the first pacifier, the first bib the first shoes, socks, heck I even had an unused Pamper that was ever so tiny! My twins were preemies, so their little baby cabbage patch clothes I can now turn into cash!

I had every holiday card from the day they were born til about age 18! Give or take a few missed holidays I forgot to save the cards! I even had the greeting cards saved from the wedding of when I married their dad! Geesh now that is bad! I was a card hoarder I guess! Or could it be I was just someone that didn't want to let memories get lost? I can remember many moments I would sit and look at my children and think "Oh please, let me remember this moment forever! Let me remember this smile on their darling little faces forever and ever!" I never wanted to forget!

Now, all the cards are in the trash and all the items are lined up around my office ready for a photo shoot to take pictures and put them on eBay! I have everything from Tonka Trucks to rag dolls! I do have 3 huge tubs of beanie babies! Not sure they will even sell but I will give it a try and just box lot them all in one huge listing so I can move on and close that beanie baby door behind me from days gone by!

Beanie babies launched my eBay career and they did help me buy my house in Florida so I can admire the luck they brought me back in the early eBay days! Now I wonder if they will even bring me enough for a bag of groceries? We will see!

Day by day I will keep sorting the stuff and keep listing it all on eBay!

Visit my eBay store section marked STUFF or OTHER (Click to view)

Hopefully there will be someone out there in eBay land that needs some STUFF! My memories will become new memories for someone else and the cycle of recycle the STUFF begins!

Impulse Email Shoppers be Warned

2010-05-21T12:10:00.001-07:00

Wow! I almost spaced out today by purchasing an item on the Internet!

Just as I was about to make my purchase I had the revelation of OMG I never checked for this item on eBay first? I hurried to open a second screen and did a search on eBay using the lowest price first option with buy it now and there it was!

They were selling even cheaper than the one I almost purchased on the Internet from a retail website. It’s funny how things work out because I received an advertisement in an e-mail and when I saw the item I happened to glance at I realized: Hey, I need one of those! My first reaction of course was to click on the link directly and proceed as I thought right at the moment to GO AHEAD, make my purchase and move on because I really needed this product anyhow!

Could this be a form of impulse buying? Kind of like when shopping at the department store, waiting in line you are tempted by all those goodies by the register so you toss them into the carriage or onto the rolling rubber heading for the cashier. When suddenly you realize too late, the item has been rung up and now your debit card is needed!

But here online we can click or not click and we can quickly open a new window to compare a price and take a shot for another great deal before inserting the item into the shopping cart!

As an eBay cheerleader I am a bit amazing it slipped my mind for a few minutes there! Thank goodness I came to my senses and saved some money by shopping on eBay!

Lesson learned and wanted to share. Watch out for those email ads that have great offers. Before purchasing, check eBay and compare prices! Chances are you will find a better deal from a great seller on eBay! Happy Shopping!

Run from Drama and Gain Success

2010-05-03T11:15:00.000-07:00

As many of you are familiar with my advise to RUN from drama, I hate to remind my eBay friends today of the fact that negativity and drama will bring you down every time.

Stop embracing negative words when there are so many positive words waiting to embrace you and surround you with success!
Negative words will NOT surround you with success but only with failure.

I suggest banning yourself from anything negative as much as possible. Make it a rule NOT to visit websites that support doom and gloom! These types of sites are screaming for attention by promoting nonsense. It's more about ratings and page rankings and not about helping you succeed as an eBay seller.

Keep this in mind when you follow these types. I am serious when I type this because my inbox is loaded with eBay sellers seeking help after falling prey and reading articles loaded with "Bad Vibes" about eBay. How can anyone possibly think this is going to help their business while filling a learning brain with bad thoughts?

Hello, REALITY CHECK to those of you knowing what I am talking about. eBay is not the enemy. The enemy is negative energy that loves to suck you into reading and following the drama. Wake up and shake it off! Shake off that negative energy and become a motivational seeker!

Your business is your responsibility. No one can make you list items on eBay and no one can make you NOT list items on eBay. But if you are spending all your time roaming the internet streets participating in drama, WELL THEN what in the world are you thinking? Every time you CLICK on a drama website you are helping them grow their business!

I suggest setting some new goals if sales are down and seek EDUCATION and LEARNING! Forget the drama, it will destroy your business every time! I even own the domain name called: RunDramaRun.com. I bought it a few years ago with a thought I had one day in frustration from eBay sellers falling prey to more drama. I will soon be setting the sight up. If anyone is interested to become a POSITIVE BLOGGER, blogging about good things and post some positive energy, please contact me at: powersellingmom@gmail.com to discuss your ideas for the site. Posts can be about any POSITIVE subject within reason, at my personal discretion.

Everyone is welcome to become a blogger at: RunDramaRun.com! Promote yourself, your business your positive energy for FREE! We can have up to 100 bloggers sharing POSITIVE THOUGHTS under one internet roof!
Only rule will be: NO DRAMA, NO NEGATIVITY and NO BASHING!

Queen Meg

2010-04-26T16:11:00.000-07:00

I was in a Hotel lobby this weekend and I had to laugh when the TV had this crazy lady wearing a crown prancing around leading a group of other crazy protesters somewhere, guessing it was CA as I didn't pay much attention. I did notice this crazy lady making fun of Meg Whitman and I thought OMG what is wrong with this woman? She made a complete fool of herself. She looked more like a King even though she thought she was a queen. Her face reminded me of the King from Burger King so we had quite a chuckle about it.

I am guessing the mud must be flying on the networks in CA as Meg Whitman is running for Governor. How I wish I lived there just so I could help vote her in! My cousin does live in San Diego and he has promised to cast a vote for her, just for me!

I've been a huge Meg fan for a long time. I admit to buying one of her campaign T-shirts so I felt like I was helping her campaign in a small way at the time: CLICK TO VIEW the official Meg Store and pick up a shirt supporting her campaign!

Visit her website: Meg Whitman for Governor of California

I highly suggest you have a good laugh at the Queen Meg Wanna-be Gal that looks like the Burger King and grab yourself a burger in her honor when you see it!
Meanwhile, watch this video and you will see a true, first class lady that has the ability to change, improve and make California a better place, just like she did for eBay!

eBay Memorabilia

2010-04-14T11:04:00.000-07:00

I personally enjoy collecting eBay memorabilia. Finding items on eBay can be challenging and fun. I recently found a few more great items to add to my eBay collection. I find it a great way to decorate and keep me in the eBay community mood while I work on line and teach eBay. When students come to my office they are amazed at all the eBay-anna on the bright yellow walls.

With the PowerSeller logo being removed from the eBay system by September I suggest you buy up all the powerseller items on the market because they will be hard to find later when the Top-Rated seller items hit the market.

Check out this list direct from eBay:

Ecommerce and eBay Yearly Check-List | Practical eCommerce

Move em In Move em Out Life Goes On

2009-12-09T19:30:00.000-08:00

No matter what kind of business you are in, whether you work for someone else or are self-employed, staff members over the years have had an impact on your life in one way or another. It may have been a first time job, a student aid a co-worker or even a customer, someone along your professional path has been an influence in your life.

I’ve been selling my way through eBay for about 13 years now and I must say how my life has greatly changed along with the world’s largest online marketplace.

I’ve loved and admired so many of the members. Including fellow eBay sellers, employees, staff and even the CEO’s!

As my career has grown and I’ve climbed up my personal ladder of eBay success, I must say that the most recent employee I watched say goodbye to eBay was yet another one that had touched my life was Mr. Garnor Morantes. I am kicking myself now that I didn’t make the time to have him as a guest at PowerSellingMomRadio.com.

I had met Garnor at eBay live in Boston, 2007 and that is where my eBay life changed. Since I am an eBay “Groupie” which means I was a frequent participant of the eBay group platform, the first stop on my agenda at eBay live was to sit in on the eBay group presentation and that was where I met Garnor. He was the presenter along with Mathew (who is also no longer at eBay) and I remember sitting there listening to Garnor speak thinking, WOW this guy is amazing! He glowed with confidence as if he was meant to be a public speaker. Long story short, after the presentation, he asked me for my business card and the rest is eBay history!

When I first caught wind of Garnor leaving eBay all I could think of was OMG OMG what is eBay thinking? This is a man with a HUGE gift! He has the gift of compassion and communication. His leadership skills are amazing! I can’t imagine why a company like eBay would allow him to leave? I know he had visions for eBay groups and there was so much more for him to contribute to the eBay community. He was such an asset to the company and to many people that he has helped over the years. WOW!

But for me, as an eBay cheerleader I can only ponder and be thankful that I had the honor to meet yet another loving soul in this place we call life!

Enjoy a video I taped of Garnor and eBay staff at eBay Live Chicago 2009
