Taking a Chance at the Flea Market...

[@EgaTehPro]

Change is a shared responsibility, but at 7am... it's definitely on the seller.

[@onlyluvisreal6691]

I've gone to the flea market with only enough money to set up, hoping to make money for bills. I never had change. I don't remember missing any sales in the morning and soon enough I had change 😅😅😅

[@ParadigmThrift]

As a seller, I'd always have change....but if a buyer is going to negotiate then they better have the right change :)

[@greyharediscoveries1307]

When I have a yard sale, I always have lots of change because buyers don’t always come prepared. When I am a shopper I always bring lots of change so I can make deals quickly and efficiently

[@johndough5854]

That and it is very awkward when someone is selling an item for 10$ and you talk them down a few bucks.....look them in the eye and hand them a $10 and ask for change 😂

[@troubledtrouabdour]

I’ve missed a $1 to-84 plus bc the seller didn’t have change. Lesson learned I go to the bank and get 1, 5 & 10 every Friday before yard sale/flea market. Get change!

[@wilmaburns5280]

EXACTLY!

[@COLONELREAP3R]

you dont go the shop and expect them not to have change so i dont see the diffrence here

[@njwtube]

5/10/20 or 50 would still have made u profit?

[@cyndimanka]

I’m jealous about your 60° weather. It snowed last night and it’s already melted this afternoon but it’s not warm by any means. Every day is going to get warmer. I cannot wait to feel the warmth I am so over winter.

[@eartharoundme]

We just got a box full of antique dolls for $100. We just looked up a few dolls on top to make a decision and figured one could pay for the box. When we got home and looked at all the dolls individually, only one is worth $1000 or more so far. I agree on the take a chance sometimes when people are looking over your shoulder situations.

[@Princess_Snugglefluff]

If buyers keep buying with large bills... sellers might be running out of change faster. I think it's the responsibility of the sellers to try to keep sufficient change.

[@anntaplin4960]

I always take a huge float with me when I sell.

[@Markchill2]

I would say both

[@iamelcapitan]

It’s always good to keep $150-200 in change as a seller but it’s still risky to go to a market with a big purse already.

[@leebrown9658]

I say it is both. I have seen buyers going through and buying $1-$5 items and giving each vendor a $20 saying thats all they have. So both.

[@MikeInMexico]

Sellers always should have change. Imagine going to a business and trying to pay and they say…’sorry, can’t sell you that because I don’t have change.’ It’s their loss.

[@deborajackson9251]

I believe you and Haley have good gut instincts. 😊 Trust your gut

[@Pentecostal_Reseller]

I’ve done good with Sealed models! Last one I bought was at a thrift store for less then 10.00 and sold it around 100.00! I think it was a Boat Model. Some car ones do well too! Great buy , easy listings and easy shipping! Gotta love it!

[@sararoberts6026]

Definitely on the seller to have change! and be prepared for 100s. Even though it is irritating as a seller to get them, be ready!

[@ppshale7223]

Hayley and Josh!!! Thanks for taking us along!!! I appreciate you both so much!!! Stay safe stay great and keep up the good work!!!

[@rainabuechner6941]

I bought a few sealed models at a yard sale for $5 each. Most only sold for $12-15. Hopefully you got some that will be higher in value. My best "risk" was when I first started sourcing as a reseller. I came across a lady at a yard sale with a large bin of Hallmark Ornaments. All from some family member and almost all stored in the original box. I paid $50 not knowing hardly anything about them. And that was a lot of money for me as a newbie!! Ended up that there were SO many ornaments in there, that each ornament came out to costing only thirty cents a piece! One of them I listed right before Christmas and sold almost instantly for $80. Not bad for someone who's still learning the game! :)

[@onlyluvisreal6691]

That's actually the best way to learn what sells. Now you have a good idea of what Hallmark ornaments are worth picking up. Good lessons ❤

[@kimross6279]

Knew it was going to be a good video, Haley finding $5. God bless stay safe until the next video 💓 😍

[@tekkno.logist]

For small but niche collections like that I always straight up ask the seller to point out the highest value item and then I’ll pick a second one using my limited knowledge and see what they amount to. That’s what helps me notch>aim>release my funds without too much consternation or fear.

[@lindaglijnis5105]

Thank you for trying to buy something from every seller. That is very nice.

[@christinaarmstrong4482]

When I have a yard sale, I make sure to have $100 in 😅$1 bills and $20 in coins, plus several fives and tens for change. When I am going to garage sales or flea markets, I bring lots of small bills and a few tens and twenties in case I make a bigger purchase. I think having change is the responsibility of both buyer and seller.

[@PeterBergstrom-q5y]

The copper disk "lamp" is a heater, There was a screw in heating element and a wire basket guard over the face.

[@asterix7842]

I've never sold at a flea market, but I plan to this summer. I figured the best thing would be to stop at a bank and get $100 in ones and fives, and a few rolls of quarters.

[@HairyTornado]

Yep!

[@chhook949]

Quarters?😳

[@dsr8223]

If 5 people buy a $1 item and each one pays you with a $20, you'll burn through that $100 in ones very fast.

[@OhmegadJT]

About three years ago, when I started reselling, my first big purchase was for model cars. He had a ton and it was soooo out of my comfort zone. He told me some guy was supposed to come a couple hours ago to buy them all so I offered $400 for everything and it took some time but he accepted. All I could think was “man did I just make a mistake” but after all was said and done, I made over $1000 net profit in a couple months.

[@carmenwagner634]

As a seller I usually carry 300 in change to a show. I appreciate people that are thoughtful enough to bring small bills.Early in the day I refuse 100 bills for 5~10 dollar items.Some sellers come into a show dead broke with no change and barely enough money to get there.

[@jasontrumble7217]

Always love the channel and was big supporter when the Mrs gained her wings and blossomed. Another awesome channel is One foot flipper he does have only 1 foot but has a wealth of knowledge a Ton of humor and always a pleasure when he posts he tells you like it is and guarantee you will laugh and learn!!! Love u2 keep up the awesome Work!!!

[@itschanel8638]

I got so excited when I got an alert for a new video! Lol

[@tameragray4299]

70 year old Granny picker here. I always have exact change because it makes the transaction go faster and I can move on to the next deal, especially at garage sales and flea markets the competition has gotten a lot worse here in California.

[@michaelmasciulli5948]

Shout from Australia. At 1.36 on the vid there was a Premiership (that’s what we call champions) Australian Football League Adelaide Crows cap. That is vintage as they only won it in ‘97 and ’98. That would go big in Australia. Shout out to @2aussiethrifters.

[@GetDat1]

Not vintage it’s repro, I have the same cap and it has different writing to the vintage one on it definitely repop

[@thenextarcher]

Thats a ton of klein screwdrivers at 12:51. I wonder what the price was on those. They make some of my favorite screwdrivers.

[@susangraham9562]

Great haul today guys ,well done 😊😊xx❤️❤️❤️🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🙏🙏🌺🌺

[@JimmyC95]

Upload day is my favorite day!

[@nicobelanger]

The penguin plush is adorable! 🐧❤️

[@michelleraney3577]

Sellers should always be prepared and have change!

[@feeya1788]

OMG you left the sadness plush from inside out on Miss Jackies table 😭😭

[@thriftingtiger]

Zo is wearing a Chef vest so of course he wanted the Chefs to win.

[@joshsparrowchannel]

i didn't realize that the shoe prices went up so much?! that sucks for you guys! GOD bless you Josh and Haley!

[@seasons7510]

That’s the beauty of bulk buying sometimes it throws up a surprise and you can always just get money back to get out of it there’s an old saying if yo get desperate your first loss is your best loss.when it’s just not working clear the decks and move on to something that will bring you a profit

[@erinbarclay5316]

I agree, I think the change or smaller bills is the responsibility of the seller. I also think it’s important to carry bills of all sizes. You never know what you will buy and how much a bundle of items can cost. Thank you for another great video you two! Sending you both many blessings and ❤from 🇨🇦

[@richardmarcelino238]

When you say at the end of this video on taking a risk I watch you guys all the time that's how I learn the business so I'm going to say if you're going to take the risk then I'm learning to take risk

[@jeeperscreepers3782]

I love how that lady had all her toys with batteries in them

[@michaelking2124]

I enjoy your videos so much. Thank you

[@denniselgatoblanco824]

Shoutout to Zoe and Miss Jackie! Love to Mose!!

[@MooreIncome]

Sometimes it's worth it to buy something just to learn if it's good to sell, if you like selling it and shipping, etc. Growth comes from taking risks!

[@onlyluvisreal6691]

Exactly 🎉

[@HandMadeWithLovebyLoretta]

The hat stand you passed would be great for your booth for all the hats you have

[@beckypetersen2680]

It's seller's responsibility to have change. Just like a yard sale. Seller should have it!

[@cyndimanka]

I’ve really been into the vintage jackets and starter jackets recently. That 80s jacket was very cool.

[@cadmanwatching]

I think you made a good deal on the models. Hope you score big.

[@johnnygamecock2396]

Just bought a bunch of models, I paid $8 to $10 each and they went for $20 to $30 + ship but the key was some buyers bought multiples, and I send some shipping back, but multiple saved time and made more money for me so so far I like the model market, especially given they are around 20 years or more older, I stay away from recent one people bought at Ollies :)

[@Aughramoon]

Trust your gut! Those are often the best adventures!!

[@kathybarnett1905]

Thanks for your time and video !!😊

[@bradsparkes1254]

Impressed that the first stop had an Adelaide Crows Aussie Rules cap (1m37s) for sale. The Crows won back to back titles in 97 & 98, so it looked in good shape for that vintage.

[@GetDat1]

Not vintage it’s repro, I have the same cap and it has different writing to the vintage one on it definitely repop

[@vigerminaberrios4116]

Great findings 👍

[@DaCynn91]

Thank for the update on the those sealed cards lol I always wondered if they sold or not.

[@frankhomen2632]

Great flea market video you guys are the models made by Revell this is a good brand to look out for specially the vintage ones

[@KandisSJGroup]

As a buyer, If you want to pick up good cheap stuff, bring the ones.

[@dsr8223]

As a courtesy, at a smaller store, I always pay for small purchases will small bills.

[@carolyna7818]

Please can Zo start his own channel featuring Mama Zo?😁 ❤🙏 Sitcom spin off! He's my reseller guru - "sell it low, let it go" 😂

[@heathermurray9939]

As the saying goes " find a penny pick it up & it will bring you luck " I live in England and i found a £5.00 on the ground, lots of people must of walked past it. My late father used to say to us x5 sisters and brother " when in town keep your window down, meaning to look around all the time as you don't know what is under your feet "

[@JamesWilson-ci8jc]

It's totally the sellers responsibility to have change. I been selling st flea markets for years so i always try to make sure I have change, but many times someone will come along at start of sale and pay with a $100 bill which sucks.but if I'm low on ones or whatever I just exchange with another vendor.

[@shirleyjames3737]

We love Jeff Gordon, when he left we lost intrest in Nascar.

[@justinm9937]

I believe for small purchases, relying on change falls on the buyer. If there is a large exchange, it falls on the seller to have sufficient change. Either way it needs to be neutral.

[@sonyaberleena2144]

I like the plush and bag content 😂 but my favorite content is still the local goodwills. Also the vendors should have change but as a local and regular buyer I think its good practice to carry smaller notes that will help you get even better deals. Nothing more annoying when a buyer rocks up with a big note and clears out your smaller notes. Its a 50/50 hand in hand situation I feel. But always love the content 🤌

[@aaron71]

21 degrees this morning here! flea market season starts in April. Can't wait!!

[@johnseptember2131]

I'm a big fan from New Zealand you're videos are entertaining

[@robert.brokaw3829]

Like I keep saying - you guys always have a good time. Like you content. Stay safe.

[@mrspk4060]

Buying collections is good provided they are not too large or too expensive. It's better when it is an adult child downsizing in a hurry. I know you realize not everyone has the platform you have- and I know you are grateful for it- but the rest of us need to buyer lower than you can ;D

[@jparkersilverstacker5128]

Definitely some cool finds

[@PhenomenalPhindsATL]

We do great with model cars. I've sold vintage models assembled with the box, open box complete and even empty boxes for great money.

[@chandrahernandez5201]

Mose for president!!! I think the change issue falls on both parties

[@sandrahostetler2396]

We are headed to the Webster Flea Market on Monday, its supposed to be the best sale of the year, hope to run into you guys there !

[@samshepperrd]

You there are lucky to have swap meets. Here in S CA had the few swap meets all shut down during COVID Times of Madness and a lot of them (the best) never reopened.

[@thomaswaites9247]

It's the seller responsible. It's just like when you go to the store, gas station, or a restaurant. They always has change

[@micahbush3877]

Great video guys. Just by what I saw on the models you should more than double your money plus

[@masterjedi1980]

I think the models purchase was good. You can sit on them and let them sell over time.

[@brucewright5061]

I think you are managing your risk well, by buying a bulk lot, but not over-spending on the size of lot. A big difference with the disney truck-load that you bought. There everything was a brand name and the spend-per-item was quite low (and hence your risk was low too).

[@meschahayes1003]

I would be scanning the barcodes on the models to see the margins. I like to take my time on stuff like that

[@garyschuck7928]

Models cost about $25+ new now days. Some of those look like remakes of older model kits. If they were original older ones you wouldn’t have gotten them for that price. Some are crazy high. But a good buy I think over all.

[@FairLady107]

Always comp - unless you need content. 😅 Also, I watched your video this morning and saw the tiger pick up. Found one out thrifting today just an hour or two later. Did not pick it up but thought that was so crazy.

[@chhook949]

Hayley seemed surprised with your knowledge on the Masters Hat😳 Yup shoe category is getting very tight in the profit area flea markets prices have definitely increased more of a EBay item which is a platform most are leaving. Great pickup on the golf net twice the practice half the walking! All The Best! Be Well Be Safe & Stay Blessed. Over Due For A Gum Ball Update😂

[@whysoblutube]

That Boss Fink model is awesome!

[@lindahenderson5651]

Aaaggghhh. Great purchase, but in today's market I would struggle without seeing comps on the models. You, however, will do fine.

[@MistyAtSkeeterJones]

No control over what you're going to find... but that's part of the fun 😊

[@JamieMarieKY]

He was talking about South Carolina basketball. The men beat us (Kentucky) like he said and I will very impressed with them. They have actually beat us 2 years in a row. That new coach they have is a good one! SC was picked to finish last in the SEC so they have really done well. That being said that got beat bad last night vs Auburn. Also, the women's team is the only D1 school that hasn't lost a game! Anyways, Go CATS!

[@jennyk6360]

100% agree about JG!

[@marycarlson8837]

I've done well with opened models, so sealed should do even better.

[@michellemorgan6295]

Model cars normally run you $30 to 40 apiece in a store and you got some of the older ones so don’t let them scam you because my husband model cars but he passed away

[@wilmaburns5280]

Seller's are responsible for having change.... accommodating the buyer!

[@ITSHProductions]

05:15 At this point I knew for sure, you were in some kind of mood. Sellers and buyers having change And then you aren't a true Nascar fan if.... Earnhardt cheated by crashing into people...if that's what you were getting at.

[@sylviagarcia6845]

I dont see any comments on maybe its the responsibility of both parties to have change. Ive been buying and selling for over 30 years and its amazing how many small sales of 2 and 3 dollars and everyone is paying with a 20 dollar bill. As a buyer I want to hand the person 2 dollars and go to the next sale. Once it was 2 dollars and I handed her a 5 dollar bill and she said she had to go inside and get the change. It took her nearly 10 minutes. SO it just helps if everyone could be prepared to help themselves and each other.

[@corleenreeling3276]

I believe both should have change/small bills. The seller will probably need more because they will most likely be there longer and deal with more people.

[@maddog6191]

I think you took a very smart and very good risk On the models I would take so many and put them online and the rest

[@henrys3629]

My Indiana cousin is a Gordon fan. Don't tell him what you said, because he just had 4x bypass and don't want him to relapse

[@JoRoBu]

I was at a gaming store recently with my husband and we were looking at the models. Most were $40+. I think you did well with them.

[@davidsawchak1330]

I would comp a few to make sure I could at least break even easily then risk it from there!

[@jaycam16]

Just depends on how approach bundle type negotiations. Some people are cut throat low ballers or respectfully "what's your lowest you'll take?" Get these off your hands. If your confident in the original deal just take time to assess what your getting into. Look up comps in front could be frowned on but you taking a risk. But you seem like it hopefully pan out for you.

Hi Josh and Haley. Me and my girlfriend really like your videos. We have noticed that there have been a few tonka toys at your fee market. We suggest checking them out they could bring you some good money if they are cheap enough.
