Increased USPS rates on Jan 17 has me down quite a bit. I heard about it back in October last year when it was proposed, but for some reason I thought it wouldn't be a thing until like March... but nope it's Jan 17. EHCk

Oh no. Shipping rates for me are already quite expensive (the benefits of living on an island in the middle of the ocean!), so the rate increase is definitely a bummer. :(
I know what you mean about selling stuff in lots. When I first started selling, I didn't realize how cumbersome shipping one tiny figure or two tiny metal charms would be. Eventually, I made minimum purchase rules and listed quite a few lots. The only problem is that I'm noticing a decrease in sales because people aren't willing to pay for extra items they don't really want or need. Unless I just haven't figured out how to properly market my items yet, selling is tough. :(
I too have a ton of work to do on XY. XD I'm currently trying to do the following: -Breed Timid Protean Greninja -Breed Modest Magic Bounce Xatu -Breed Adamant Guts Flareon -Train Huge Power Azumarill -Train Huge Power Medicham -Train Skill Link Cloyster -Train Yveltal -Collect all Unown letters
Yeah minimum purchase rule has really spared me in terms of time, but definitely takes away a lot of buyers since so many people are just running on well... chump allowance money lulz One thing I'm kind of hoping for is that Pokemon promotes this year's 20th anniversary in a way that brings more fans into the picture in general, hoping to get new collectors from there who are hunting out tons and tons of things XDDD
Good list of things to do! 8D I keep getting distracted by other mobile games I keep telling myself I'm only playing short-term but then I end up still doing all the daily things, and ugh >_>; Nooo wanna build up my long-term team for Pokemon~~~ Well, once Pokemon GO comes out, I'm sure it'll be a lot easier for me to break out of those short-term games so I really want it to come sooooon! XDD
