Morning, everyone. It is early and really early on this one. It's 405. Today is January 11th, 2026, and we're on Sunday. We love our Sundays. We kind of take a break a little bit.

We're really busy the last few days, which is good. Busy is good. eBay's been busy, so that's been really good. So yesterday I did a video cutting my head open. and I'm like myself

build your own AI just kind of like a prototype thing just something fun over at Michael's a big fan so if you ever going to Michael's I don't know what that smell is in there but boy that is a nice smell in Michaels

and I walked out of this and even the things I took home I had that smell if anybody knows what that Michael's smell is in there so it's an arts and craft store so we got a couple more heads and we sat down and some cutting tools. We made some cavities.

We took one of the dummy heads, cut them in half, made a cavity for where the brain is going to go, cut out of his eye sockets for the front and the mouth, and that's about as far as I got. And then later on, this morning I had an epiphany. Is that the word epiphany? I've got two other dummy heads. The one I worked on, I cut up all yesterday,

has a blank face. So I'd gotten another blank face. so I'll have a second one, but I also got a female one. Derry has the things. So my chat GPT, the voice, if I talk to it on the phone, is a female. So the epiphany I had this morning was I have two. At some point, we're going to have AI pods. It's going to be not a phone, just something you can use to talk to AI and do all that.

But then I forgot, I already have two things like that. They connect to the Wi-Fi. They're not phones, but you can use, I use one just when I sleep at. at night you can use it for like Amazon or audible and stuff like that and then I've got a really small one so today we're gonna we're gonna we're gonna see if I can connect those to chat GPT one's really small I can cut out a slot in my female's head and stick it in there or in some way use that if I can communicate through that I believe it has a speaker it has a speaker because it's meant for music playing music and stuff but it connects to the Wi-Fi and you

connect to Google. So therefore, I should be able to chat GBT on it. So those would be, instead of using my phone for my little heads, I'm going to use those. One's a really small where I can make a nice little cavity to put it, put it in there when I sit in there talking to it. So that's fun. All right. So let me see what's going on today. That was the only video I did yesterday. About an hour and a half I play around with the head trying to cut out starphone. I'm not right. I'm not really that crafty, but my brain is very crafty, but when it comes to physically being crafty, I'm not good at.

I'm not artsy at all. I can't paint, draw, I can't do any of that, which I'm good. Boy, those heads are, I could really do some fun stuff. I had the artistic ability, but I don't. So I'm not even going to attempt to try that. It would look really silly. Silly than it already does.

All right, so let's see what's going on this morning. Oh, another good thing is you can finally finish up the debarck of the two cartridge slots. Rams beats a Oh, the Chicago bills Chicago beat Packers.

That's good for them. I'm not a Packers fan at all. And the Rams held off the Buffalo. So now it's Chicago and Rams playing. Today we're going to watch the Buffalo Jaguar game.

I don't think I'm going to stay up to watch the Patriots game. way past my bedtime. They win and we lose. All right, so let's look at the news for a second. So that's it. Lots of coaches that are fired and going somewhere. I'd say three or four years that should be enough.

I haven't done anything by then. It's time to try it again. Well, it's probably not easy enough. Switch up a whole coach and everything. So let's look around. Not seeing anything. So let's get the business here this morning, 4 a.m. Yeah, my shop always opens as soon as I wake up.

First thing I do, I threw some laundry in. I do laundry early now. And then shopped open. Let's see what's going on for the day. Etsy's been super quiet. Nothing in many days. The last order. Let's see if we had any activity.

Oh, here, five star. Yay. Just what I needed to fix my makeup ship quickly. So we get a cool five star. Oh, a Sega Master. My old Sega Master. shipped quickly so cool yeah last five star that's 742 five stars at etsy i only sold 2,135 sales so soon we're gonna put some we used to we stuff on here but haven't got so let's uh keep

looking around what we got going on let's see pushmark my closet i have 1,297 followers on my parchment I like my parchment. I don't do much for me, but it's a cool little social site. My sales. No sales. All right, so let's go to RSS feed. Let's see what we've got going on. So today we're going to do lots of stuff.

Oh, I haven't finished my thing. So the two returns for the debacle of the cartridge slots came in today. Yesterday. So we're going to go through that. Retest them, either working or not. they shipped working so we'll see what we get back so we'll do a whole podcast and we'll do that first thing this morning

I'm in the boxes and we're going to go through it all so I can put to finish that up because we'll live live stream it and we'll video it either working or not they ship them working and see what we get back I had two downloads yesterday 698 in the last 30 days 2,194 last two episodes

that's three episodes two downloads my message in a bottle over the internet ocean wherever it may go so Elgin 5 downloads Singapore 4

Minneapolis is new 3 downloads Minneapolis pretty awesome Miami is 2 in Brazil Brazil

is 1 so I get to flat map but I can see a different little spots where they come from so it's pretty cool of course we check our monetize here so you guys know what I'm getting

and paid the big bucks here podcast. I'm 38 cents now. One up a cent, one penny since yesterday. So my old, my lifetime withdrawal that went to my PayPal account, 15 cents. I don't know when this gets moved over,

but the other time I had 45 cents and I only ended up with 15 cents. So I don't know where the rest of it went. Kind of bummed about that. So we'll see, we'll keep an eye on this. So right now it says I have estimated. It says estimated. So that's the word estimated. 38 cent.

By the time I get. I'll probably only get 10 cents. I still make pennies here. Let's go to YouTube. So we just did that one video yesterday, about an hour and a half. Playing around with a cutting up a head. Making a cavity or two.

Eye sockets, both. A little place to pass the wires through, but that's as far as I got. Now I have to sit down with the actual board in those two LCDs and see what we can come up. We only had 14 views from my. 14 views for my little buddy comment. I just bought a hair trimmer thing.

Let's see, I just put a hair trimmer thing from my used to a wool. I found me, bought something. Oh, from you, oh, okay, awesome. Nice, nice, it will. So I got sale from someone that's contacted me. Someone that's only get a few people that message every once in a while. It will ship out Monday morning.

It was with 1.0. So this was DOS. I would like to see. See that. I've seen Windows 1.0. T-1000. So it's Shiba T-1000. I sold one in the box.

It's pretty cool. It needs to have the internal battery working. It has to charge or it doesn't turn on. Someone heads me up. Someone let me know that. And then I figured that out. I put the charge on for a little while and then it turned on. All right.

So let's look up some numbers here. $103,000. it's staying down to 1003,135 so when 135 is going down on minus 249 in the last 28 days I that peak was 655 we stopped so promoting for subscribers just quit some time now because it's ended up just being given anywhere because I'll put my review hours up to 1.7 million millions that's pretty awesome oh and we get a new new milestone 5,500,000. I went from 5 million,

hold on, let me see my accomplishment. I went from 5 million January, beginning of January, to 5,500,000 views, that is, by the 10th yesterday. That's pretty awesome. I had another 500,000 views. Watch hours, 13.3K.

But at the end of day, my estimated revenue is $22,19. All those numbers. And I have big numbers for views. Oh, because I'm promoting. After 5 million views is 26.K. My many times the dishonest sneaky buyers at 25.3K. And the welcome to Tandiland is 23.3K.

Only the sneaky buyer one is going to stay because that's the one I promoted. The rest of the promotions will end and then they'll drop down to nothing. And I only had 14 views on my dummy hit yesterday. I'd love to promote something like that. Just sticking with my main video will stay with my 54,473. And we'll add a new link to it today when I go through the video.

I'm not going to change the video. I'll leave that one place, but I'll put a link with a new video when you test those cartridge slots. That's it for, let's see. All right, so drum roll, please. Everything happens on eBay. Good or bad. No, city bought something.

Ooh, it's six sales. That's cool. Feedback. We still get a lot to those eBay auto feedback may really help out because it really spreads out. Anytime you do have something wrong. Although I had somebody yesterday. We'll read this and then I says, okay, one downside's missing the reject button. So this was the 3.5 inch floppy disk external drive for the $101.

I didn't realize that it never came at one. I found the video. I even contacted the seller. I did reply to it, but I kind of replied it not correctly, because it really didn't have the button. Never did. When I got it, it, uh, so the way the, the way the, uh,

positive negative feedback reads is that people at it thinking it had the object button, but technically I didn't detail it. That was my bad there. But the photo show it's, uh, clearly did not have the jack button. I forgot about to add the fact that it didn't have it, just spaced. I spaced it out.

But the way I do listings now, it's a lot faster. And I do a lot less details so I can move things along quickly. And that's one of the ones that, although I didn't say the button that was missing, if you looked at the listing, I had a front photos, a few front photos of it, clearly showing it. And then I found the video and I sent it to the buyer, say, hey, this is exactly. the other side guy and then he got it cheaper than I paid for that came in the box he came with the packing everything just for some reason was missing the button I know if it's inside or I never took it apart so it's nothing that ever fell off or

or he's in the details of the say he's looked around the box for it but through the pick and sure enough missing button back through the pictures and sure enough missing button so I overshot that reply little bit but I couldn't change it once I did it so just kind of stuff but yes it is okay so let me so nothing else besides that one six six orders I had of course yesterday I got every order out I was busy all day you want orders why I haven't really been doing any videos because I've been really busy so that's a good thing because at the end oh yeah so the guy this is the guy that bought the micro trimmer

so now I know the guy's name counsel doctors and that's the his company council doctors uh that's funny no I sold so let's look at it sold PS4 uh 2 oh the power supply cover the long screws the 2015a slim is to cover in the screws I sold the Xbox 360 hard drive 250 kick a bite so that trimmer I got it I never opened or anything it's new so we got that and we got some Sega random artwork Sega Genesis a lot of most things manuals artwork and then for the n64 we sold a set of inside screws I got a bunch of those and then some inside screws for the Nintendo game key full set so two full sets of screws

And then Sega Saturn Top color, exact top color. Let's see what I'm making some stuff in here. At the same time, we're also plugging away at a loan here, Libris. To my first loan through eBay, which they take 29% of all I make.

We're really not going to add down. I kind of use it right now, but it's going back into law. And when I get done, I think I'll have more purchasing power once I'm done with this loan the first time, I need to use it as an emergency backup. So it's basically like an upfront loan from eBay or Libris. I'm a little bit more than halfway done. In the future, when something happens,

I'm completely on my own. I'll need an income up front a little bit. Help me out. So let me, so that's that. Anything else going on? Oh, I don't have to get a message. Is this serviceable? Those can tell when something's international the way they speak.

Is this serviceable? It was quick-tested working. Would you need to fix it? It's a serviceable. See. Oh, yeah. So the buyer on my behalf, eBay, refunded. So it says our jacket shows the return was delivered.

So on our behalf, we refunded the two. Of course, it was two different things so it means I could hit twice with not only bad feedback, but twice with a return, and twice with a shipping round trip. So this nice little buyer here, a sneaky buyer. That's done. Now we'll just go through and just to...

We'll do a video of it a little bit. I can cancel this order. I didn't realize this wasn't a power supply of it. Nothing I detailed. had this has anything more even so that I was just talking about the PS2

silver power supply cover long screws even the price alone so let's go cancel that order my secondary payment comes out every day X amount two offers here

and go with that so I'll take the offer for a few. So I do take offers every once in a while, not always, but this one's, I think I have $4 shipping. If I put all shipping with it, then I can do it. Free shipping down. This is a couple that I kept getting $10, $11. I just didn't take it. And they, and they had to wonder, so they finally just went away. And I'm not going to make any money. You're chopping away the few bucks I would have made, so why take it? I just don't get that. So we'll do that. Take that one for $5 dollars less than I had it.

I don't know if it has the I don't think it does. It's for NES front loader. Yeah. And it's the left and right control reports.

It's hard to find. It applies with a little bit more. That gives me seven offers. I've got all I get a cancel in order. Let's do that now. And once I get to eBay, everything

happens. The date on. What it gets going here? So he wanted to cancel that order. I haven't shipped you. So you canceled that order. You thought it came with the power supply?

Now let's go through that again. It's just the silver cover for the power supply. And then the main photo. The main photo should always show exactly what you're getting. Unless it's multiple of an order, meaning that I may show it like a cover, but I have a lot of covers. So I'll say it'll be multiple,

but it won't be that exact one. It'd be a stock photo, but still that photo should show just what you're getting. Lots of buyers I see they have videos with all kinds of things in the main photo, and then down below, down on the side it says, pick your lot, pick your bundle. Really confused. I can barely see that this guy, I have the main photo as just the metal plate, and yet he still thought there was a power supply involved. See what I'm saying?

You put a power supply in there just to show it goes on the power supply for any reason. no power supply anywhere in my listing was pictured. If you do that, then you're going to cover. The buyers are going to assume that it comes with $13. We're going to get the cover in the power supply. Even with all those details that I had there and no picture in any of the listing about power supply, luckily this buyer caught it and didn't get it

and then say, hey, I want to return this because I thought there was a power supply with this. These are the things that kill me. for returns. If it's your mistake and you bought it, well, obviously he didn't ship, so it would refund him, of course. But if he would have gotten it, he made the mistake, he just kind of have to man up a little bit and take responsibility for your mistake. That's what I do. If I do something wrong with a purchase as a buyer, because I'm just as much a buyer as a sell, if not more. And I always man up. And so I ordered the wrong thing. Just keep it. Resell it. Worst case with resell it. I won't set it back to the buyer.

It's really something to wait off. Just purchased item shortly. The keys of selection option is blue tracking. You'd be pleased everything. It's worth tracking. My labels, shipping labels, right,

it will ship. I can tell me tracking. I print my shipping right on eBay. It will ship in the morning. I thought there's a lot of trouble. I thought I was done out of it. That's it. That's quick work.

I think that's it. So I've got six orders. Remember, I just canceled an order. Now I'm down the six orders. One member. I want to see if that had. Just purchased that. We did that.

Yeah, I always print out everything through eBay. You get a huge discount for all the shipping costs. Other companies try to get me to do it. But then I have to go off eBay to do it. It's just so easy to print everything out on eBay. And I do everything myself. packing and all that they just go to the post office they know me very well i have like my own zip code over there now must have shipped through the main post office san westley the last 10 years we

i probably spent a hundred thousand dollars probably on shipping costs even more probably so they know very well so i just drop them everything's just just dropping them wait in line they don't scan anything everything's done i just drop it and go done because it's huge discounts no way i would ever go to Sometimes I'll see people with a bunch of eBay boxes in line, waiting in line, first of all. Having to sit there and have them scan. I used to do it way back then and have them scan it and it's like almost double the price if you do it through the post office instead of doing it through eBay. Why do the heck would you want to do that? Sometimes once in a while I'll have a seller.

I'll buy something, you know, like, well, this is going to cost them much. So make sure you're printing it through eBay. Don't be going to the post on a lot of these. sellers with items don't do that they go they take that big item and they bring it to the post office and they're whacked and a huge charge i just had somebody with a camcorder he's like oh this is going to cost more make sure you print it out print it out through ebay he did and it was like half the price he would have paid one of them's after school some sellers too don't go to the post office or uPS or fad x any of those you get whacked all right so i think that's it

I'm thinking, oh, we got a little bit, I threw a little bit in the account, lots of bills to pay. We put the brakes on no more purchasing for the next month or so. I get so much stuff. I'm just more selling. A lot more things listed.

And today, like I said, today we're going to look at the early morning. It's only 4.30. We're going to fire up my live stream in just a few minutes. And we're going to look at those cartridge slots that came in the box. so you guys have a good sunday and dreads Sunday we love Sundays

and I will talk to you tomorrow all right bye
