In Demand Thrift Haul to Sell on Ebay and Poshmark

[@luxedoll166]

Hi there, I love your style base pickups ,the information you give us about what is trending and why you are picking up the pieces ( seasonality) is of great value to me. I’ve learn more from your videos than from anyone else I follow. Thanks so much !!!

[@wendyrichards3925]

I love the style-based hauls. It's also helpful when you clarify what the different features are called, such as bishop sleeve and bobble detail. 🙂👍

[@hollye9043]

Def keep including style based pickups. Probably about 60% of my inventory is style based due to availability in my area.

[@TheFlippingBrit]

Hello, I am new to your channel and generally avoid clothing like the plague! You are very inspiring! Loved all the keyword recommendations.

[@Micheleluvs2create]

Yes, keep the style based clothing coming! Thank you for the keywords too! I'm in rural PA and I don't find as many BOLOS as I would like. Style based helps! THANK YOU!

[@rachelgustafson1207]

Yes, love the style based pick ups and key words. Very helpful! ❤

[@honestlyophelia4624]

Thank you so much, Cayley! I prefer the style based videos because I'm in a very small, rural Midwestern town where nobody wheres brand name clothing lol.

[@Colspeyn]

Keep the style based coming! So informative 😊

[@christinesexton939]

You know your keywords! I struggle to sell Woman Within. Same with Catherine's. I do love selling plus size but lately Ive been selling XS,00, 25. Somehow I lost your videos for awhile. Glad to be back.

[@cayleyelaine]

I'm glad you're back too!

[@jasperanddustpan]

Yes, information regarding style based pick-ups is great - not only for purposes of sourcing (which I am not doing right now as my money/death pile is out of control) but also to know how to market what I have. Thanks!

[@margaretdonnelly6710]

Love the mix of bolos and style based! I learn so much from every video!

[@caling98]

I like style based content. It lets me know keywords to use like hoco or whimsigoth. Thank you for taking the time to teach us.

[@salliewright4285]

What does hoco mean? I would love to use it

[@laurafonseca5852]

Hoco is short for Homecoming 🪩

[@pamprier4710]

I love when you pick up the style-based items. I'm much more likely to find such items in my area, than bolos.

[@stephaniecoffee447]

same here 😊

[@krishuber7209]

I like both - style base & bolos!

[@happygirlgooch1589]

Great haul love the mixture of bolo and style base

[@beckygarza3688]

I appreciate all the info on what you pick up. I especially love the style based pick ups because I thrift at a little hole in the wall thrift store and it’s so cheap but the pick ups are mostly style based. I may find a bolo every now and then but those are rare. Love all your content though & I learn quite a bit!

[@janeenharrison1953]

I like BOTH, thank you! It helps because I pass up alot of those brands you show ie Woman Within and Lands End. Now, I will have to do a double take going forward.

[@lindathibedeau9999]

Keep the style based items coming, lots of fun giving us another avenue to explore. Thanks so much for All this information. Linda, The Picky Picker

[@joro2113]

Love and appreciate your insights! Thank you❤

[@jenniferjohnson3010]

I love seeing your style based pick ups as well as the BOLOs!

[@amandagracedeal8710]

I think the word you want for the Maurice's jacket is eyelet, rather than crochet.

[@marcysavage3692]

I really enjoyed this video! I liked how you pointed out what you are seeing that is on trend and the sleeve types. Common brands that you have had success on not just the “high” level designers. Thank you!

[@junebrezgis1652]

I Loved all the style based pick ups and plus sized . Great pick ups.

[@rachelwick26]

I definitely like the style based part of the hauls too. I'm now looking for more style based plus sized items when I'm sourcing. Thank you for such great information. 😀

[@charlieannescloset]

Keep doing what your doing because I am learning a lot about keywords!!

[@jodysundheimnovak]

I love that velvet black xl top!

[@chicaboho4050]

I love this type of video thanks for sharing

[@angelitainspira2671]

Hi, my English is not very good hope you understand me, what do you think if you collect sings for all the people to sell on ebay then we can ask to eBay to make a deal with the post office for a better shipping like poshmark has 😊

[@cayleyelaine]

That's a good idea but it would be up to ebay to negotiate with usps.

[@angelitainspira2671]

Yes, but we can try together we can try push ebay to negotiate with USPS

[@meggymegz212]

I don't know how you sell Croft & Barrow, it always sits for me! Also, I just picked up a similar coat (the suede one) but it's LL Bean, I learned it's called a duffle coat. I've been doing this for years and never heard that before so I figured I'd share if you didn't know

[@sdayala1005]

Hi, thank you for all the information that you give us to be successful resellers as well. I’d like to see more of your what sold I’m curious as to if those pieces from Catherine’s or woman’s within do well for you. Please keep us good content.

[@MountainHomeThrift]

When you share what prices you’ll be listing items at, is that across all platforms? Or eBay where you first list your items?

[@cayleyelaine]

Ebay where I first list an item. When I crosspost to Posh I add 5 or 10 bucks to account for offers.

[@hollye9043]

Love watching your videos. I've learned alot. What criteria do you use for listing something as new without tags?

[@pamprier4710]

@hollye9043 Good question. I've wondered the same thing.

[@cayleyelaine]

If there is a manufacturer tag attached.

[@hollye9043]

@@cayleyelaine I would consider that new "with" tags. Now I'm really confused. Lol.

[@cayleyelaine]

@hollye9043 😅 I definitely misread your question. New WITHOUT tags. Usually I only consider it that if there is a small fragment somewhere of the manufacturers tag. Like maybe the plastic tab is there but the tag is not or there's a small bag of buttons inside. Very rarely, but occasionally, I'll get something that feels like it's never been washed and is super crisp. Sometimes I'll consider it nwot if I feel very confident.

[@hollye9043]

@@cayleyelaine thanks so much! Very helpful and makes sense. 👍

[@colleenbrown3366]

Hi Cayley Elaine! O.K. as per usual I was looking up your BOLOs on EBay to see what's what. I put "Bobble Knit" into the Search Engine and then "Solds" and the filter to show Highest Priced sales. Now what came up...I do not understand. I believe it is in American dollars but maybe I'm wrong. "Express Tricot Hand Knit Sweater..." If this is a true sale I know what I'm on the BOLO for.

[@cayleyelaine]

There's no way lol it's possible the item got bid up but the buyer never paid.

[@sandragall7370]

BobbleBishopBolo!❤

[@margaretdonnelly6710]

When it’s a women’s cardi like that J Crew one, is still okay to use “grandpa core”? Or should I stick with that keyword just for men’s?

[@cayleyelaine]

You could use grandmacore!

[@margaretdonnelly6710]

@cayleyelaine yes, true but I didn't know if it sold as well. Thanks!

[@mmlln4877]

Where did you get all this cool clothes?

[@cayleyelaine]

Thrift stores

[@aurorajokinen7145]

How do I find your store on Ebay? Thanks!

[@cayleyelaine]

If you go to my linktree in my description you'll see everything.

[@stephaniec.648]

Great finds. I believe Rachel & Zoe is pronounced Zo “e” Our pug is named Zoe and we pronounced the E. 😊

[@KESH-ds1wz]

Rachel Zoe is a person and she actually does prounounce it like Cayley did without the “e”

[@valencybacuyani4748]

Keep factor stacking!!❤❤

[@nancyholmes7012]

[@zachbitango]

Hey Cayley, I just saw your reply on other video and that you just posted a new video so I figured I would just reply here now :). I was asking about your hanging torso that you use in photos. Thanks again.

[@cayleyelaine]

Hey! Sorry I missed that response. This is the exact set I have: amzn.to/2RkukGC

[@zachbitango]

@@cayleyelaine Thank you very much Cayley! Learning a lot from watching you.

[@ginadefluri2422]

Do you do mercari ? If not why?

[@cayleyelaine]

I used to but stopped because I realized I was spreading myself too thin and not able to give a full effort there. I scaled back to ebay and poshmark.

[@stefanilemminn7572]

Do you put in your listings without care tags that it “feels like” a certain material or do you list it as that definitely? There are so many times when I’m thrifting that I think to myself oh this is wool or oh this is silk and it ends up being acrylic or a polyester blend or something like that so I would be nervous to post something without a care tag claiming that it’s something when I can’t verify. Even people like McKenzie think a material is something specific and end up being wrong so even a seasoned Thrifter could make that mistake. So I’m curious how you would list something that you THINK is a certain material. Same thing goes for a Y2K style piece… If you can’t find it on Google image or find the exact thing online, how can you say for sure that it’s Y2K? Do you just put Y2K inspired or something like that? I run into this a lot, which is why I’m asking! Thanks!

[@cayleyelaine]

I will say a material feels like x in a listing. However, I don't make a habit of picking up things without tags. I only make exceptions when I can tell there's enough of a following that it won't matter. I have become pretty familiar with dating tags so it's easy for me to tell if something is y2k or not. Regardless, Y2K is an aesthetic so you can use it on things that are modern.

[@stefanilemminn7572]

@ ah, I see! I’m pretty good with tags too, but there are a lot of times where I can’t find anything like what I have! I was born in 1986 so I’m pretty good about knowing what is Y2K and what’s not but there are times where something looks pretty new and I wonder if it’s a newer piece that just looks Y2K or if it’s actually Y2K and is there a difference when describing and pricing. That really goes for anything vintage. Even with a vintage tag sometimes I go down the rabbit hole trying to find exactly what the timeframe is and I can’t find it so I’ll just leave it as vintage without any more specifics than that. Your videos are a big help to me and I appreciate you responding 😊

[@theficklefish]

What is the best indicator that something is Y2K? I lived through Y2K in my 30s, but I’ve never been a trendy person…more of just classic pieces. I just can’t tell when in a sea of other clothes at the thrift store.

[@cayleyelaine]

Hard to explain here on a YT comment. I'd recommend studying sold comps for Y2K pieces or join Reseller's Edge. We have a Y2K Deep dive!

[@SongsbyCharleneApril]

Hi! If I recall, you mentioned you/your team list 50 items a day. Are you still doing that amount?

[@cayleyelaine]

No, we are at 45 a day. We were at 50 a day last year but dropped down.

[@LadyZuly318]

Have you listed that purple dress yet 👀

[@cayleyelaine]

Yes and it already sold 😢 I'm sorry!

[@LoriLevesque]

Style base!

[@derekfromyt]

Did you goto college for fashion, how do you know

[@jordanschoffstall]

Probably (and I'm just guessing here), she has the ability to take into consideration all of the things she sees/researches on the internet, TV, real life, etc. and with that vast amount of input (as well as her own personal experience and knowledge as a reseller), is then able to extrapolate the "data" into a working definition of "fashion." Again, just a guess.

[@cayleyelaine]

I did not. I have been studying and researching these things for years, so in a way, the same as college! Lol

[@lorikiser8362]

Hi Cayley. I love the style based pick ups! It really helps me find the right things at the bins!

That craft and barrow is sold new for $14, people are paying $25 for it used?

[@cayleyelaine]

Depends on how you market it. It's possible.
