Episode 107 - We list on this platform and nothing ever sells....

[@HairyTornado]

All I’ll say about the KZbin play button 100k subs situation is that long form followers are far more devout than short form. They watch every video, they connect to you on a deeper level, and they are more likely to support you financially if you ever do a merch drop or something. The short form audience is just in it for the little snippets of content, a few seconds at a time. Long form peeps will sit down and watch a 30 minute video on the living room TV. I’d much rather have a play button for 100k of THOSE people than 100k short viewers

[@PodunkPicker]

@hairytonado your comment is very accurate.

In all fairness to Kevin. There is absolutely nothing wrong with your kids helping you with your work. Turn on the TV and take a look at the society of kids who didn't grow up doing any work. He is giving them a life where they get to spend time with their parents and learn how to make a living. That is a blessing. His kids seemed very well behaved and they always seemed excited when on camera. Their dad is a KZbinr. What kids doesn't think that's cool. I know Dave and Cary just joke, that's their personality but I would give anything to attend a yard sale with my dad growing up seeing his hustle for providing for us while also spending time with me. Or going into the cabin and help ship orders . Time is time. It's a blessing that Kevin can do both at that same time.and it doesn't hurt to teach a kid to work because it is evident that Kevin also takes them on vacations and spends a fortune allowing his son to play ball. In shorter words...those kids are blessed. The Bible says those the Lord loves He disciplines. Every child should have a form of discipline because their future will be better for it, and again I would never consider time with my mom or dad discipline even if it was work.

[@wrestlingfigs3093]

The kids have to do work for their meals 😮

[@trashtocashpodcast]

Thank you. My kids are by no means over worked. They are good kids and I am proud of them.

[@Beechnut2U]

I had to work as a kid. I'm 65 now. I learned life skills -especially that you have to work to live. The 40 year olds living in their parents' basements are the parents failure. You go, Virginia! We work!

[@sarahcleveland1799]

Absolutely agree ❤️

[@DS-vd1id]

I'm always stunned by what other pickers leave behind -- there is almost always something. In one bins trip I found a wooden bucket ice cream maker in an old non-rotated bin that I sold within a week for $130, and several pairs of shoes in great condition that no one was picking up that originally sold for $200-400. I am about to ship some busted but rare Timberlakes that still sold for $50 in terrible condition, that again, I totally picked up from the middle of a bin that had been on the floor for hours. There is SO MUCH available to redistribute.

[@brendayankoski8325]

There is enough goofy, here, to keep me company while I list. I enjoy goofy. Keep it up.

[@carolc.1334]

I agree with Kevin. No need for inventory system when you are organized and when new "categories" come in you need to rearrange/clean up areas. This way you are touching your inventory and know where items are throughout the year.

[@CommonwealthPicker]

I would add that at some point it would become necessary if a business and inventory gets to large and numerous.

[@cynthiawilson6653]

Thanks for the shout out! ❤ Cary, I also watch plane crash videos.

[@PodunkPicker]

There is so much stuff used and unwanted items, so there is a ton of items for everyone who wants to sell stuff online.

[@ashleyhuke]

I just got back from a month in Europe and trying to catch up on all the happenings in the reselling community. Glad to hear there’s a lot to keep me entertained while I list lol

[@trashtocashpodcast]

Welcome back!

[@gemflipper]

I've been buying and selling on ebay since 1999 and never once have I not been able to find items to resell.

[@GarageSaleMonster]

Lolololol

[@ivangies6314]

Cary is better at giving Kevin, and even Dave more CRAP. In the past Cary was so calm and easy going, and now Cary is really dishing it out!!! Thanks another great podcast!!! On a side note, I wish Dawn and Cary had separate E-Bay accounts because I know nothing about Sports cards ,but would love to view all the other items.

[@ABCMatt123]

Thank you Cary for knowing I was on with Nashville Flipper - Alphabet Matt

[@americanarbitrage]

You’re welcome bro :)

[@llabb2]

Love the channel a little advice Guitar Hero Guitars are easy to ship you use a full 1095 USPS box and cut another one in half the dimensions only come out to 21x12x4 weighs about 4lbs very easy to ship do it all the time

[@trashtocashpodcast]

but cheaper ground advantage

[@FLYFISHTIE]

so glad i finally watched you guys this is a riot!

[@allismom4723]

Normally I turn the podcast off as soon as jelly hands start but luckily this time I stuck around so glad I got to see Tim & Brandon👍👍👍

[@SimplyShannanigans]

Love Careys motivation to Dawn ❤😂😂

[@nancybarlage7583]

I like the way Kevin does his What Not Auction. I have time to view the items to see if I want something! I’m sure that’s why he gets more viewers and makes good money! Who wants only 3 viewers

[@brickhauspicker]

If you need another ginger beard, I'm there! I am now a FL resident, but NWFL, so dont worry Dave.

[@wrestlingfigs3093]

You guys should have a Re Selling boxing event. Main event could star Rock star and Daily refinement. Kevin vs pearls from the past first guy to get filed in a bin loses.. It would be successful you guys could probably profit 10$ EACH

[@janicespencer4466]

I have a laserdisc player & watch laserdisc. It's very nitch. You need sealed laser disc that are demand. If you have a bunch of preowned ones, its rough. It was a learning experience for me.

[@ebayvideo6383]

Sometimes it is a bad item but you see a youtuber sell it for way more than it was worth. Case in point I had a Delft piece I could not sell. Gave it back to GW. Not longer after Crazy Lamp Lady auctions off same piece for over $80. Did a search and someone had same piece for $30.

[@ordiekelleher2641]

Salvation army is boosting prices also.

[@ordiekelleher2641]

Crazy session😊

[@Doggystyleflipper]

I know I talk more crap than the "Roto Rooter Man" but I'm glad to see I'm not alone. This is my public apology to the Trash to Cash guys for roasting them without their permission. A roast is only a roast if the person being roasted doesn't mind. You guys are great, been watching since Kevin joined but I have gone back and watched every episode from the beginning. Hopefully I can win you guys over someday....

[@WhiskeyTangoFoxtrotaWtf]

Kevin is dippin' or spittin' his tabacca when he turns his camera off. Wish he'd give that up. 😢

Is there someplace to get merch?

[@pinggee6518]

ebay does have a dark mode for desktop, but it's only for the discussion boards. I made the change when it became available several years ago, as the bright white screen is just too bright on my large screen/

[@rubazaar891]

Yeah, I saw Kevin's comment on Midget Monkey Mudwrestling, Paint drying and Grass grows, he does get around on the forum pages too.

[@rubazaar891]

And his comment on the differences between drying times with and without primer was very detailed.

[@rubazaar891]

Cary, Kevin commented on a different card channel than yours, and said..... "Why don't you guys make the cheap cards more valuable by, bringing back the ole card clothespin to bikes, so they rattle on the spokes, like in his day.....

[@rubazaar891]

Dang, been calling it notching

[@pearlsfromthepast]

Apparently I have a hard time sharing my opinions and explaining how I think they may be a better alternative without being offensive or sounding combative. I wasn't trying to force people to do their system a specific way but point out some of the benefits of a SKU system and some of the downsides of not using SKUs. So I'm sorry, I guess, if anybody was offended but if a conversation offends you because somebody doesn't agree with you maybe just take a break from it. I think most people including Kevin were fine with the back and forth but maybe it went on too long. That is all.

[@CommonwealthPicker]

You were not offensive at all. Deathpile Picker on the other hand is very offensive. 😂 you made and have made many good and valid points.

[@sodacityflips]

Dave, I'd have bought the entire King Collection from you. Keep me in mind next time.

I'm starting the GoFundMe for Josh's legal defense. And, allegedly, it will all be donated to the CEO of Goodwill since they are so needy.

[@glitterwitch718]

Mel from OutBack Burnout (?) did a video on the topic addressing the alleged scamming issue since she has a close working relationship with both parties. It broke my heart for her because this whole issue seems to have hurt more people then someone thought it would

[@trashtocashpodcast]

I feel for Mel as well.

[@victorfuentes2631]

You guys should invite the Daily refinement guy on the show . I don’t like the guy but agedly, he screams scammer .

[@juliet8642]

I have categories but I also use a sku system within the categories. What would you do if something happened to you, does everyone in your house know how your organization system works and are able to find your items?

To be honest If I go the keys to the kingdom go with me. 😉

Lol, I'm not outing Josh like that. Josh pays too much for a lot of stuff, especially from the shoe ladies, but he gets a lot of great deals from his fans out there, that no one else can get. Mrs Petra for example. I try to buy from her and everything's $10 more for me. Lol.
