I am trying to figure out how to cost my bulk. I get my bulk at about $2#. I
focus on minis and pieces that have a value of .05 or more. I have been trying
to figure out how to cost the items I find in these bulk buys. Does anyone even
cost bulk out? does anyone have any recommendations? I want to have the money
part figured out and my book keeping up to date for taxes before I even open.
Also any advice for a new seller would be welcomed.

Somebody posted a suggestion some time ago here: https://www.bricklink.com/message.asp?ID=1322899
I saved the link because in theory I'd like to know better how much things
cost me, but in practice I never got round to actually doing that. Not worth
the effort, I'd say. Taxwise it should be enough to have a receipt for the
bulk buy, at least that's what I hope, should somebody come to check...
