Dina, keep the reciept and you return the item, brand new, if it does not sell:) Good luck back at you!!

Oh, and you start the price at what you paid, and add a few bucks to cover the fees. You won't lose and you can stay home with tinkerbell.

Well the software is free you just download it off the internet it's cal;led express scribe. And there is a foot pedal you can buy. Personally i have chose not to buy it because i find using the keyboard easy enough. but those range from the cheapest i heard being $11 and some being over $60. They pay from esrciptionist.com is $50 per hour of audio you transcribe. (so transcribe 2 hours of audio you get paid $100) Then the pays goes up on the difficulty of the audio; examples: how many speakers, if the speakers have an accent, clarity of audio, etc... Hope that helps.

Wow, Narc, thanks so much! It seems easy enough but do you sell any kind of items? What about clothing? Sorry for all the questions.

Narcissus, have you checked to make sure it's legal to resell items at a profit like that? Seems to me that it's along the same lines as scalping...you know?

PB items are absolutely legal to sell:) Ebay has specific policies about scalping tickets and it can be done as long as you are not inflating the price above it's true value. Williams Sonoma (which owns PB & PBK) has no policy against the resale of their items. Some stores "sometimes" do, like Hermes. They pick and choose when they want to get snippy about their items, but mostly their high end stuff. Watch out, they try to close your auction if you attempt to sell a knock off Jelly Bag or knock off Birkin Bag. At least they were when I was selling. I sold Juicy Couture items to mostly Aussies and Brits. I would buy items that were selling out and list them ~ $30 above their Bloomingdales full price. I also bought stuff when it went on sale, as well as Paul Frank, and Furla Bags from Filenes Bas____nt (if they had them).

Cool...I think I might have to look into that!

Jamie, the best thing you can do is never tell the store a__sociate you are a seller. Some stores can deny you the sale. Most are cool but it's good to keep it to yourself. I bought 15 clocks for $7.99 ($39 full price) and told them they were gifts, when they asked me. They said, "oh great idea to stock up!". My husband is such a wise a__s that he told me that if anyone asked why I was buying so many clocks, to tell them I was building a statue out of clocks. He can be really difficult at times, lol!!

LOL...I'd tell them that I wanted to know what time it was...why else would someone buy a clock??? LMAO
