Don't Pass These Items in Thrift Stores!

SHOUTOUT TIM!
This man is a thrifting maniac! I was able to meet up with him and hit some thrift stores in Utah and he just kept finding score after score! We hit around 12 stores all together and found about $4000 in profit between the 2 of us. Absolutely insane day of thrifting. I learned so much from Tim this day and I'm sure you guys will too. Go check out his youtube channel! You won't regret it!

Tim is an awesome reseller and a super nice guy. SHOUTOUT TIM!

[@Haildawn]

The dynamic in this was amazing, you both have great chemistry and I laughed my ass off every time you would pan to his cart and it would have a whole new set of gian items in it. Plus that moment you both grabbed the recorders and laughed. Great video

[@HairyTornado]

Thank.you!

[@mygodisable2]

Great job you guys. Tim just showed me the great potential for taking items apart and selling them for parts. Lot of money in that. HT, you got some nice items as well. You guys look like you had a fantastic time.

[@mspurple2020]

After your last stop, I was happy to see YOU still fit in Tim's SUV! 😄 Wow, yeah, that would be a shipping nightmare for me! You guys are great together! Small is great! Space a saving & easy to ship! Totally enjoyed this adventure! Thanks! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

[@mannyaguilar67]

Exactly. What you rather do? Pack one big bulky item that makes you $80 or more or 3 pair of shoes that will net the same but you need to do 3 listings, pictures, description and packing to get the same profit.

[@darrenleaguecity]

@@mannyaguilar67 Why not both?

[@mannyaguilar67]

@@darrenleaguecity Sure, that’s an option but you only have certain amount of time so if you have to chose I would not chose the shoes. The comment was also directed at other sellers are afraid of big bulky items (read Hairy Tornado) and Tim showed him recently how profitable those items can be. Besides I don’t like shoes in general since I don’t know who’s stinky feet they may have come from 😂.

No doubt some of the items he purchased don't work, but it's worth the risk. He can either sell those as parts, or recycle.

[@sortathesame8701]

Any honest way of making a living is a wonderful thing, but I have to admit that I hate the way resellers have caused the thrift stores in my area to hike prices! It seems that they think if YOU can sell if for five time what they sell it for, they can do it too, so prices are going up like crazy! We have tons of Goodwills that get tons of high end items donated, but most of the time the only people I run into shopping there are resellers because prices are too high, sometimes even higher than what the item sold for new in the store!!

[@billzukley1616]

It's cyclical. The store gets a new manager, he/she wonders why they can't charge more with all the resellers buying there, so they raise prices. The resellers stop buying and stock piles up, literally. They have to start sending pallets of stuff directly to the outlet store where it only brings $1.20/pound, and senior management tells them to lower their prices and MOVE THE STOCK. Prices come back down. Rinse and repeat. If you are in the business long enough, you will see it happen many times.

[@sortathesame8701]

@@billzukley1616 I'm not in the business at all, I just buy for my family. Like I said, I love thrifting and am happy someone can make a good living at it!

Still a good idea to run through them once in a while as I still find an amazing deal now and then.
