There’s not much more enjoyable than being a reseller and finding out that something you love collecting already is actually worth a bunch of money. That was the situation I was in a couple of years ago when a friend mentioned that they had been unable to find a Dr. Seuss book and ended up …
As a reseller, my entire purpose is to find things that no one else recognizes as valuable and flip them for a ton of money. Typically this involves crawling through thrift stores, cleaning/fixing what I find, and then reselling it on eBay (for up to $15,000/month in sales). Several years ago one of the niches …

I spend dozens of hours perusing thrift stores every week for things to sell and have to pass by several shelves of goods that I just don’t have enough expertise to go through. …
The name Michael Jordan is almost synonymous with basketball and has been for many years. Thanks to his appearances in the Space Jam films and his years of dominance in the sport, he became a household name. To resellers such as myself, however, the name Michael Jordan has become synonymous with money. Not because he’s …
The comic book is one of the hardest things to judge when looking for valuable resale items. Sure, we all know to grab vintage Marvel or Star Wars comics but what about the weird stuff that’s worth big money? Well, until recently I hadn’t put in the time to really understand which comic books are …
