I Filled 2 Shopping Carts Thrifting Goodwill! What Did I Find to Sell on Ebay and Amazon FBA?

[@cindycastro2709]

That turtle is worthy.!! The value right now is $150.

[@frankd.hodges9734]

I picked up 2 of those PIYO DVDs on Ebay. got them for 2$, sold for 20$ each within 48 hours. first sales I ever got on Ebay.

[@ThriftSchool]

Awesome finds! My PIYO stuff sold fast

[@briancox7219]

Those Shelby Foote Civil War books 7:55 It's a 3 book set and if you had all 3 they sell for between $30-40

[@mykhall688]

At 7.54. The civil war books under the harry potter book. Should be a three book set. I just sold them for $40.00 + shipping.

[@StayingInYourOwnLane]

Myk Hall wow man that’s killa good score

[@patrickbrown8540]

At 10:25 you left behind a Brita water filter. I would have definitely picked that up. I recently sold an off brand water filter, these things sell fast.

[@smalltownpicker]

Those Kodak slide carriages were at mine too. I felt it was too small of a margin to mess with.

[@tamijordan1380]

I collect turtles and that turtle was AWESOME... Love him!

[@1991windsor]

There is a Goodwill store that I go to that has their Wi-Fi on so much lockdown you can't look anything up and the building has so much metal on it that when you turn your Wi-Fi off you can't even look things up with data service. That's why unless I know it's going to provide me with a decent profit or it's something I could use myself or give to a family member, I just pass up on it. Don't want to take the risk.

[@3AholesMedia]

Half those VERO claims are illegal and bogus. There is absolutely nothing stopping a person from selling an item that they purchased at a yard sale, thrift store, or retail shop. It's bogus, and class action lawsuits will follow one day. VERO is for somebody who makes bootleg products and claims they are their own brand. That's it.

[@robertstalnaker5728]

The only bad thing is that I got obsessed and started raiding other people closets lol. I made over $800 in literally 2 weeks for getting rid of stuff I didn’t wear. I hope you do the same!

[@NoirChat22]

Depending on the stain Johnson and Johnson baby shampoo and white vinager in cold water. Then a 40/60 mix of 40% vinager and 60% water in a cup. Use a sponge and dab on the stain. Rinse in cold water. Don’t have the shirt in water past 5mins. Line dry and use your fingers to flatten out the wrinkles while it’s wet. Don’t worry it doesn’t smell like vinager after it drys

[@andrewut7ya511]

noooo, just dont sell stained shirts you bought for 2 dollars

[@NoirChat22]

They’re not stains once you clean them properly. Do you just throw your clothes away when you get them dirty. It’s better to rescue them and get the stain out so they can have a new life.

[@andrewut7ya511]

@@NoirChat22 no, i wash my shirts and keepnthem as used clothing, which is what anything found in a thrift shop should be labled,used. even with tags, sitting in a musty thrift shop with stains does not count as a new shirt, its kinda sad that someone would even think of selling a stained shirt as new. Reason #243 not to buy tbings on ebay that are not fa tory sealed

[@groovyvanpicker5511]

And I thought the Goodwill in Reno was on crack!

[@stevechavez9067]

I heard from other KZbin resellers say you can't send in Goodwill sealed new items to Amazon as new that they have to be "used" if not your Amazon account will be banned, thoughts ?

[@ryantilmon1482]

Not true at all! Amazon can't tell where it came from. 99% of the people take of the goodwill stickers or remove the marker from the boxes.

[@andrewut7ya511]

its just scummy, once something has been donated it should be left at that, sold for cheap or given away. people go to amazon for new items not stuff that been sitting in a basement or who knows where for however long. this is why i dont use ebay or amazon anymore, its just a bunch of people picking crap up at goodwill and inflating the price. ill buy new from a store or go to goodwill myself

[@cdcVintage]

I shop at goodwill for myself. I got a snow shovel (half off blue tag day) for only $3.50 and it retails $34.99 on Walmart!

[@andrewut7ya511]

prices keep going up because they know resellers are using them as suppliers rather than the intended use of providing people with cheap options for clothing or homegoods

[@josh_graff]

Did the slide things ever sale?

[@dianesanders2455]

Great haul! Out of curiosity I would have loved to see you open the little red barn in the toy section to see if any farm animals were inside. I'm 66 y/o and had it as a child! If I recall the barn door "moo'd" when opened. Question...how or who determines the pricing on items to be sold at Goodwill? Thanks- new subbie!

[@jonmiller3668]

Maybe I never understood how amazon works so all you do mail you items in and they sell it for you ?

[@stacey5548]

Regarding not being able to sell Melissa and Doug products. They're a Connecticut based company that sells on Amazon. Maybe they have some non-compete clause with Amazon to cut off other local sellers of their products.

[@ThriftSchool]

Interesting. I had no clue they were based out of CT. Thanks for the tip

[@TheThrillofTheThrift]

Hey there. I am a fellow KZbinr and one of my subscribers watched me repair an item and it was the Santa clause kneeling above baby Jesus. Unfortunately mine is missing the baby Jesus. At12:59 in this video I saw the exact same item. What are the chances that you would be able to go back and grab that for me and I would buy it from you?

Do you pay for the amazon app or do you use the free version?

[@crabtownguy]

Ok, I'm confused you said you were OK making 5 dollars on a DVD, but then you say making 9 dollars on Harley Tshirts wasn't worth it. Explain your thought process for us on that .

[@ThriftSchool]

Space the shirt takes up. Listing process for a DVD is in total maybe 2 mins tops while a TShirt is closer to 10-15mins from pictures. To measurements to packing it in inventory. Shipping cost is higher on the shirt as well.

[@beautywithbekah7538]

What is the difference in posting P90X versus a pair of Tommy Hilfiger shoes? What does the specific branding have to do with it?

[@larissaalcorn3406]

It depends on the defensive nature of the brand. Beachbody wants to be the sole distributor of their products and goes after people for selling it.

[@emilyarchibald1900]

I wouldn't mind if someone did that to a for-profit store like GameStop, but thrift stores that do good things for the community with the profit they make from items donated? That's just not morally right. Now I've heard that Goodwill's CEO takes quit a chunk of the profit, but still, at least they do some things.

[@patrickbrown8540]

Goodwill is definitely for profit! Their CEO makes I think $729K a year.

[@emilyarchibald1900]

@@patrickbrown8540 Yeah, like I said the CEO takes quite a chunk. Which is still wrong. But there are 2,800 GW stores. Each would only need to send that dude $260.35/year for his pay.

[@marciekeuneke6706]

Emily Archibald Ummmmmmm, the articles I’ve read stated that each state has a CEO. They all make a ridiculous amount of money. Don’t know what they do for the community, but their wages paid to employees are sad. Viewing GW as a second hand for-profit retail store makes sense. Viewing them as a philanthropic benefactor helping the community, really? How? I’m not seeing it.
