Goodwill Has Lost Its Mind

[@Velstrenz]

Goodwill prices have indeed gotten insane. I've seriously considered standing on the sidewalk outside of Goodwill with a sign saying "I pay CASH for your donations! See me before you donate to Goodwill!". I figure I could grab the good stuff, pay the person money for stuff they were willing to just give away, and then they can donate whatever is left to Goodwill.

[@CMRetroGaming]

I had a buyer cancel an order. She said "please cancel, child can't have." I cancelled the order and she left neutral feedback. If a buyer cancels an order they shouldn't be able to leave feedback.

[@diane-b2z]

Did you contact ebay? A Buyer cannot leave a feedback for an item they never received and ebay will remove it. But you do have to contact ebay to have it removed. I experienced the same thing and ebay did remove it. Good Luck.

[@joedoughty4171]

Id even go further to say that Ebay should encourage communication between parties and penalize failure to do so. Never in the real world does a buyer get a platform to defame a small buisness before communicating with said buisness first. I have like 4 negatives from buyers who never even tried reaching out and it looks really obvious what Ebay is doing. Its about $. Has to be.

I got one last week. The lady bought some Maybelline matte lipstick. Maybelline was so proud of this Matte lineup that they put the word "Matte" in every color name! The lady left me neutral feedback because she said in her comment that the lipstick wasnt Matte and comes off on her coffee cup..like I have control over that🤷‍♂️ She should have saved that review for Maybelline! 😂

She thought matte meant "long-lasting" or "24-hour wear" . Nothing you can do about idiots.

I went from spending $15,000 to $20,000 plus a year in Goodwill to very little in the last year or so. They're pricing resellers out of the store, which is their right as a business. The problem is 60% of the people I'd see in the Goodwill were resellers... so... I still go so I can count the mileage on my trips to town, but I find myself walking out with one item or less a lot now as opposed to 10 to 15 items just a few years ago.

Goodwill was founded to serve the low-income demographic, but the organization has strayed so far from that purpose. Now it's more about competing with resellers than serving the low-income demographic.

I got two neutrals recently, both for mistakes the buyer made. I sell antique German animals, and I list their size in cm and inches. I photograph next to a ruler and a soda can. Two customers complained that the animals were smaller than expected. I get neutrals because they don't know what 4 inches look like? And Ebay is totally unhelpful -- they won't change feedback, no matter how ludicrous it is, apparently. The system should be overhauled -- customers leave neutral or negative feedback because they're not happy with their own decision to buy an item. That is unfair.

[@WhoDatBenny]

People get too wrapped up in 100% feedback. You can't please everyone, who cares if someone leaves a neutral or neg. If you sell hundreds or thousands of items a neg won't hurt. It's a total waste of time sitting on the phone with eBay or talking to chat, if someone see your feedback they can tell a pita buyer by the feedback left.

[@tommeyer2854]

I feel for you, I received a negative saying that he had unauthorized charges on his card after purchasing from eBay. I requested a revision kindly stating we as sellers do not have any access to payments on eBay. He then changed it to neutral and eBay said it doesn’t violate their terms so they won’t remove it, even though it is clearly not a reflection on our store. Completely arbitrary rule and a slap in the face when we work hard for a 100% positive feedback score.

[@wandafields4165]

I had a lady that left me very good written feedback and then left left a negatve " card scammer". Well I never had anything to do with her card and eBay even realized that I dont have any way to freaking scam her card.They left the negative and did take away the" card scammer " words. There went my 100 % positive feedback for a year.😢

[@WindyRidgeResale]

My local Goodwill operates under the same region as yours.. They had got outrageous with their pricing, and their sales started suffering.

Boy do I remember the good old days of the Goodwill. Especially the bins. They were only 39 cents a pound when I first discovered them and they didn't sort through anything back then. And the donations came straight to that store, not to other Goodwills first. Talk about the wild west.

[@powertotheprawns]

I went to a goodwill to look at glass and cups - found a nice pair of frosted vintage mugs from a small town in california with no price tag on them, brought them to the register and the guy up there said "these are going to be $20 each because of the gold rims" and I about choked he was like "yeah unfortuantely its the gold rims" and it was a quick no. from me.. it's gotten out of hand considering they receive their goods for free

The "trick" with Goodwill is you have to be smarter/more knowledgeable than the person doing the pricing. Generally, I find Goodwill is a lousy place to source, as their prices are high, really high. Occasionally I do find deals in the clearance center (pound/bin store). Sales here are on fire too. Had my first $1000 day. My average is $2000/month, so getting half a month' worth of sales in one day was great.

[@tx_grown2099]

Went yesterday and saw a Starbucks mug for 29.99. Looked online and it sales for 9.99 plus shipping. There were listings for 29.99, but none sold at that price. I stick to 1/2 off days or color of the week.

[@MrNorman737]

[@karenkoe7096]

Our local GWs have not only raised prices, they no long have sales. In the past, Wednesday was senior day (30%off). Older (different each week) color tags were 50% off and once a month they had the entire store on sale 50% off. Now nothing, they have some sort of plan where you have a tag and after you spend so much (north of $20) they give you a small discount. That's it. Another problem is the stores are full of junk. If they get any good donations they are selling them elsewhere. To make a long story short, I seldom buy anything at GW these days.

[@TheThriftyVeteran]

I love Goodwill sticker shock, when $2 day comes around those items are usually still there. I just grabbed like 10 Vera Bradley new with tags. That were marked up $25-35 for 2 bucks a piece.

[@lisad1623]

Wow, we don't have $2 sales. Only the color of the week. That would be great.🙁

[@TheThriftyVeteran]

@lisad1623 we have color of the week as well. But on Thursdays that color drops to $2. I'm in Arizona. I've scooped up wake boarding boots that had marked for $100 for $2. If it sits for the 8 week color cycle. They want it out of there. And they don't have bins locally to send it too. So I go early in the week to eye things and then go back Thursday to see if it's still there.

[@commonwealthflipper]

Ours doesn’t do color sales or senior discounts. No sales of any kind.

Yes, neutral feedback is up. I think it could be because eBay changed the feedback form to where it appears to be asking for feedback on the *item*, and not the seller or the buying experience, yet the buyer's comments do get attached to us as sellers. It's been like this for months now, without any change. Ebay clearly doesn't give a hoot about the sellers.

They do 50% on one color and 75% off another color. I guess my store is testing this out. I still like the bins. Have a great day. Love your channel!!

Our Goodwill has been running a sale this summer. Each week clothes with a certain color tag is half price. I know they may do this at other Goodwills but normally don’t at ours.

Some Goodwill's in my area are better, some worse or were already really bad with prices a year ago.

New items or ones that resell for a lot, like shoes, are still priced up but not as much ($10 or $12 for a $35 pair now instead of $15 or $19). One other store is starting to figure it out and has lowered a few types of things, but not like my main store. I will continue to go and look each week, I mostly buy items on sale that week, we do have the two color sales here. With garage sale season in full swing it's not as necessary as during the winter. And I don't buy much, just two or three items each trip.

Sometimes feedback is based on you being satisfied or not even if the transaction went smoothly and the seller was not at fault. Not realizing that the game didn't play on the machine it wasn't intended to is a little weird for a neutral review though.

May was pretty good for me. June is so so. But still making sells.

My last Neutral said "Decent". Many times people just won't leave positive feedbacks or they leave stupid ones like .... I didn't like the look of monopoly token .. it was only super tiny and they were complaining about the details in it? I've also had people leave feedbacks that said "okay" or something stupid like that. It would make it better if more people left feedbacks. I also find that people buy many items and only ;eave one feedback now. We don't have any Goodwills here but we have Value Villages (which would be Savers in the US) and Salvation Army stores and I find prices in many of hose places have gotten to the point that I go to other stores now and get items for a 1/10th of their price. Some of them I just stopped going to because their prices are not even worth paying. Last time I was in those sores there wasn't many people in the them anymore. I wonder why. When you can go on Ebay and buy stuff for less then they are selling them including the shipping .... then I have to say have they lost their mind too.

4 years ago, I was spending at least $400 weekly at Goodwill. Now I am lucky to spend $2 weekly. (ON THE POSITIVE SIDE) Now I can sell items on Ebay Cheaper than Goodwill prices. I just have to source other places

[@Alin127-p7d]

Haven’t sold anything about a week, June is doing so terribly for me and very stressed 😩 😭

[@ordiekelleher2641]

Wow that was rain. Is it always like that?😊

I like your cabins, they are fascinating and different than many other sellers' garages. Love your content also. Regards from Calgary, Canada

I recently received neutral feedback on a NEW in original package refrigerator filter - because they "haven't used it yet". smh

[@pickyricky820]

Yep yesterday a guy bought my xbox 360 game and left me neutral feedback because it did not work on his xbox one, ebay refused to remove the feedback which is ridiculous but eventually i got the buyer to amend the feedback, but ebay really need to re-evaluate thier current feedback policy, what they are showing is that unfair feedback is allowed even when its buyer error even though thier terms clearly say about buyer error. What next, a guy leaves a negative because his CD does not work in a VCR and ebay are just gonna leave that feedback up, its nonsense.

[@dedemaycen9112]

As a buyer, eBay asked me to review a sale I cancelled. Why. You can't comment on condition, shipping, or quality of the product because you didn't receive the product because you cancelled it. There is no, not applicable on the review so it becomes neutral.

I just got back from Goodwill in Massachusetts. Prices are out of control. Hats 8 to 10 dollars to start. Everything so overpriced. I remember when hats were 2.00 not long ago

[@tiptongn9]

Great video. Yes my neutral feedback lately has sucked! I have had a 100% positive feedback for years and I work very hard to keep it that way, however 2 negative feedbacks and it has dropped my feedback rating , to about a 98% and I’m not happy about, but whatever, I figure that’s just the world today, what can you do? Oh well. Yes my goodwill also have lost their minds, I think they have not trained their employees properly on how to run comps , you certainly can’t go by listings, you have to look at solds! 😢 I don’t think goodwill cares what I think, obviously. Thanks Mr. Brown, love your videos

[@ArthurCohen-mk6ng]

Problem with goodwill they mark u prices to keep resellers away. Employees hide stuff for family and other people can’t afford them. Stuff won’t sell because to high are then thrown away or sell at the bins store for a lot cheaper. Lower the price so many things won’t go to the bins for so cheap. Long run you make more lowering the price a bit.

I have all the Disney VHS movies that were my daughter's. 😊

[@ericenloe8967]

Most buyers who leave neutral or negative feedback think they are leaving it for ebay and NOT the actual seller. Unfortunately ebay does not have a way to educate buyers for anything they do on ebay. If you are a seller you must follow rules and get in big trouble if you don't but for buyers pretty much anything goes.

[@spendingcents26150]

I am certainly not mad at you about your good sales but wish I could have them. I can't source the same items in this area (perhaps I will go on the road someday) so I am focusing on what I can find, and be good at it. I aspire to have sales as good as yours has been lately :-) But alas I will need higher dollar items.

[@lanceyt9982]

It seems like Good will just raised everything but you can still find good deals.
