You shoulda gave 20 kids $10 each to go buy $5 transformers. 😆 Hey man, if you go to the Goodwill Bins, grab every Single power supply you see in there. I have like 25-30 of them so far and it comes in handy all the time when i need to sell something with no power cord. I see at least 4 or 5 supplys every time i go, all different voltage and amp ratings. Comes in handy, and they cost me all of like $0.20 cents each max.

I appreciate that your items are about in the same price range as mine (not lower), and like that you discuss lego bionicles here- I have some really nice stuff it'll probably take me a year to get to though Lol

Thank you so much for your info Wick! I have an old cassette player and need a 6V power adapter to check it & that recommendation really great option! BTW- Just picked up 3 lava lamps last weekend, listed one yesterday & sold in 5 minutes, it took me longer to list it! lol I picked them up because of your previous video. This Fed-Ex issue is becoming a common occurrence, you are not the only one I have seen with this issue. I haven't ventured outside USPS, still learning shipping.

Yes, some of us are 80% hoarders; love to shop for the items BUT listing, just keep putting it off, as so time consuming. Those lego/toys listings will be a nightmare. We keep all adapters in a box and label them with blue painting tape. That cleaner is very good; we store a couple of bottles. Don't say item is "clean" had one lady return because they said "your clean is not my clean and this was not clean." Haven't used Fedex for a few years; they had damaged and mishandled to very critical packages that had very delicate antiques, though we oversecure/pack our items. The buyer saw the Fedex driver throw the packages from the street to her house (30 feet).

I have the opposite issue where fedex is fine, but UPS on like 10 packages in a row told amazon the dimensions were wrong. They were quoting dimensions that didn’t even make sense. I shipped a ps3 in a 12x12x8 box and ups said it was actually a 24x1x14 box. Like what dimension does that make sense in?

Great video as always. Do you have any tips for things to look out for at garage sales? I went to a good amount last year and would see the same things (women's clothes, baby clothes, Xmas knick knacks, dishes). Anytning to look out for in those kinds of sales or do you just pass. Would love to hear people's tips.

When you buy Legos like that loose, do you check them to make sure they’re complete before you sell or just sell them as is and say completeness unknown how do you handle that?
@FlippingJunkАй бұрын
If it's a good set I will check. Otherwise I just harvest the pieces or sell a big lot of uncounted sets.

These videos motivate other sellers I'm sure. Sometimes after not finding much for a few days and having slow sales you can lose heart. Earlier this week I found a big set of 1980's GI Joe figures. Lot of fun learning the characters and listing them.
