You weren’t able to sell them? I used to have a successful side-hustle on eBay, but I never did try to sell sunglasses. It seemed like there was too much competition for that.
Ha! Sorry dude. The postcard thing was funny though. I used to hit up yard sales looking for things to sell on eBay. I also imported some Bluetooth headsets from China and then sold those on eBay. My biggest item was refurbished Xbox 360s. I learned that Microsoft issued a recall on them and would repair or replace them, no questions asked, but that wasn’t common knowledge. So I was buying red ring of death Xboxes off eBay and Craigslist for $50, sending them to Microsoft to be repaired/replaced, and then selling the working ones for $200 each. That was a pretty good hustle while it lasted, except for the fact that I had to list each Xbox multiple times before someone would actually pay for their order. Apparently a lot of drunk people buy Xboxes they can’t afford at night, and then make up all sorts of wacky excuses in the morning. This was after the 2008 crash, so I had a dozen different hustles going to keep a roof over our heads.

Definitely not.
Something about buying something in bulk that nobody really wants for a price nobody would really pay 🤷♂️
I also bought some vintage postcards, but it turned out the only people buying those at the time were dickheads wanting to resell them at a profit.
