Every reseller hits the point where they know that digging through rack after rack in thrift stores just isn’t going to cut it. For some people, it’s because they’re just sick and tired of thrift stores. For others, it’s because they realize that they can never find enough inventory to make the kind of money …
My wife and I just moved to a new city. Maybe I’m just dumb but I could not even fathom how many clothes we had to move. Dozens of garbage bags and boxes full of them. To put it into perspective, my wife gave away or donated more than 50 PAIR OF SHOES! (and I …
Waiting to receive a package can be horrible. I recently ordered a jacket off of Poshmark and the Poshmark seller took a week to ship. I’ve had similar experiences on Etsy, eBay, Mercari, and just about every other platform. The problem is that this always seems to happen when there’s a deadline (such as a …
I did some math. I hated it but it had to be done. In the past 5 years, I reckon I’ve spent well over 2,000 hours in thrift stores. As someone who flips thrift-store finds full-time for a living this isn’t super surprising. But the idea that I’ve bought nearly 10,000 items during that time …
Ever since we started selling online we’ve noticed that eBay is pretty much a two-direction freeway for both buyers and sellers. People come in droves and they also leave in droves. No matter how much (or little) you love eBay, you’d still be wise to have a couple of eBay alternatives up your sleeve. Having …
We’ve all seen the hype articles about Disney VHS tapes. Who would have thought that your childhood tapes could sell for thousands of dollars online? Well, no one actually thought that until someone wrote the clickbait titles. Mostly because there’s no truth in the matter. Odds are, you don’t have a VHS worth even $100, …
As someone who sends thousands of packages per year, I have more than my fair share of frustrating experiences with USPS tracking numbers. There’s not much more frustrating than checking your tracking and seeing that your package isn’t moving. Add in the fact that my wife and I order at least one thing online every …
The first iPhone I ever owned was an iPhone 5. My parents wouldn’t buy me anything but a flip phone so I wanted into a Verizon store and plunked down $600 for a brand new phone (and a two-year contract). I would like to say that I was young and dumb but really I was …
The first time I went to the Goodwill Outlet I was over the moon. The idea of paying $.99 per pound for anything I could find sounded simply too good to be true. I scratched my way to the front of dozens of bins and soon filled my cart. Unfortunately, I only had 60lbs of …
Buying a used Louis Vuitton bag or purse is a gamble. At least, it is if you’re new to the market and haven’t bought, handled, or owned many Louis Vuitton items. Even if you are familiar with the brand, finding a good deal on a used Louis Vuitton is a balancing act of patience, making …
