Hello Robert. Great video. I just commented on another one of your videos concerning ties. I mentioned that I didn't know of the big named ties to look for and bought a lot of mainstream ties. Turns out I was correct that this video had not been released before I made my tie purchases. So I think I will try selling ties again, these brands specifically if I come across them. Cheers my friend.

Thank you for this! Last night I was thrifting and came across a Trump tie for $10.00 and 4 Hermès ties for $25.00 each. I was so tempted to snatch those up but I know if I wait they will eventually become 75% off. I’m on the fence if I should bite the bullet on those... hmmm. Again, thank you for the informative vid.
@robertmonroe49444 жыл бұрын
Alisa, thanks for the comment! Yes, if those are genuine Hermes ties in great condition even at $25.00 you could expect to make some money. But if you can snag them at 75% off you will make great money. Be sure to verify they are genuine because that is a brand knocked off more than some of the lower end ties.

I source all my ties for $0.10 at a local thrift shop so the margins are ridiculous. You’re mispronouncing several of the brand names but your sales info was very helpful.

I have a huge collection of mens ties from the 1980s, and 1990s vintage and I just need to get rid of them. Most are designer name from Hermes ( I own 130 Hermes) and other designers popular in the 1980s and 90s. I did sell one of the Hermes for $250. I will need to sort them all out and just put them all up for sale. I just loved collecting ties but I must say, 95% of them are new, never worn. I was just afraid I would get a stain on them. There was a guy who would sell used ties on the corner in NYC for $1 each in the 1990s. I would spend my lunch hour buying all the designer names. I was just addicted to the tie buying. Now it is time to say goodbye as I no longer need to horde them and I do have a few people who are eying the top names. If I get the prices I want, no need to put them up on ebay. The rest, I will open a store on ebay and list them. all never worn in mint condition. Now I just have to figure out if my 40 Hugo Boss ties are still desirable, as vintage.

If you go to ebay sold listings for the item and filter items that are used you will see all the Valentino used ties that have recently sold. It should give you a good idea of what they are selling for and you can price yours similarly to whatever ties seems closest to yours. I always price mine on the higher end of the range to start.

Hey man thank you for the knowledge I bought two ties, Tomy hilfiger and brooks brothers, the brooks brothers was woven and I listed for $14 free shipping and sold over night should I price woven ties higher than that?
@robertmonroe49444 жыл бұрын
Brooks Brothers have pricing all over the place but I would generally say woven will fetch a higher price all other factors considered. I also dont do free shippimg myself. I would say if an item sells that quickly you could probably have fetched a bit more money. Its trial and error top and you have to make some of those decisions off your own business model. Hope that helps

So I've never heard of that brand either, nor did I find anything in the search results. Is it silk? When I can't find anything on a brand I try to highlight the specific features.
