- My goal today was to find items that were quick, easy and effortless is list. I need to make listing as attractive as possible as my ebay motivation is low at the moment
The charity shops delivered.
I have a cool vinted snipe to show you... and I'll give you a sneak peak into my actual job.
As always I'll show you what's been selling on ebay for profit.

Loving the fact that you are building up a vintage toy collection while out sourcing to sell as well. I do the same but my thing is vintage Action Man and Star Wars. Adds a further dimension of fun and excitement to it all.
Finding stuff for the collection is one of the main reasons I do it!!
well now i want a full spin off series showing civil engineering stuff. never appreciate how much design goes into places that gets taken for granted
😂😂😂 imagine that
absolutely loved the insight into your job. fantastic stuff
Ha I might do some more then :)
I tried something last night that I'd seen on another video. I ended all of my listings (131 at the time) then posted them all again as sell similar so every item gets a new item number and apparently a 'new item boost'. Within a few hours, I'd sold 7 things, some of which were my more expensive and niche items, and some that had been sitting around for months. You have to be aware of not going over your free monthly listings, but it's worth trying, I also got a bunch of offers through.
I do this regularly and it really works 👍
Yeah good shout... Will try in November I reckon
So interesting to see your full time job! You really put some thought into the finishing with what must of been a small budget and it worked
Yeah construction cost is always a big factor. We looked at exposed aggregate for the whole promenade but there wasn't enough concrete supply locally due to other projects in the area taking the resource
Just wanna thank you for all your videos! Not been following for long but iv already learned a hell of a lot from your videos 🙌👍
No worries, glad your enjoying them :)
Usual eclectic mix of stuff, ,,interesting job you have regards Chris G MCICES
Cheers Chris:)
I am also a civil engineer, primarily highways related mind. I'm surprised you're not greyer after hearing this, having to negotiate with Councils has certainly made me greyer! 😂
Ha I do highways too... looking at a couple of active travel routes atm. S278 and SAB applications are a killer!!
@@MasterofPieces yeah S278/ S38 submissions are a ball ache these days. Not sure if it's the same over in Wales but around Yorkshire they are so by the book, no common sense involved 😂
The ebay stuff was great, but the real job bit was even more fascinating! Thanks for sharing!
Ha I might go round more sites then!
Nice to know the info about the pier walk when it was cordoned off with fencing and dug up there was an old vintage post on top of the earth It was lovely I tried to retrieve it but failed I hope it was reburied to save for the future lol I went to porthcawl chazzas last week I spent £2.50
Great to see a bit about your day job, have been to Porthcawl recently and seen the changes, vast improvement.
the intimate neck deep gig is like nothing else, so grateful i got the chance to see them in manchester rebellion, super small venue! so worth it !!
Tickets sold out in seconds. Lucky to get one on the day!! Was amazing. Manchester sounds class
Kool video Ian, nice work around Porthcawl !!
Hilarious - I looked at that exact James train plushy in there (its my local charity shop) and decided it wasnt for me haha. Should have checked solds!!
Haha no way. I picked up/put down a few times tbh too
Got to love the passuon you have for your "real job". Love it
That kerb tying into that joint is satisfying haha
Loved seeing your job! You are hands down the coolest.
Haha cheers lola :)
Quality vlog,ticked all the boxes for me.Interesting to know your job too Ian.
Appreciate the feedback olly
Neck deep are amazing live such an awesome band 🤘🏻
Incredible!!
I worked for a civil engineering company from Blackwood. They worked on the garden festival
Oh nice, what company was that?
@@MasterofPieces they were Robinson Jones then changed to Ryan Keltecs. My boss was Adrian Poller
Just seen your handwork down by coney beach. Lots of people out enjoying it. Looks great
The Globe - great venue! I saw those Polly Pockets a couple of weeks back and passed as well. Nice work you've done at Porthcawl, it's made a huge difference to the promenade and I hear there's quite a lot planned in coming years on the Pleasure Park site etc.
Yeah the globe is class. Nice to see investment in the Welsh towns
Gigamic the company that makes that game makes a few more wooden games, like Quarto, Gobblet, Pylos etc - they all do pretty decent, worth keeping an eye out for.
Nice tip will do
Love your videos Ian keep them coming I love your man cave
Cheers appreciate it :)
I see you work in your garage. Interested to know about humidity or leaking and insulation etc? Keep up the great work
Ha yeah everything runs out the garage.
Great idea thank you 🎉
Cheers :)
Crikey that gig went off, I’m going to see Happy Mondays tomorrow night.
Absolute epic gig. Hope you had a good time at happy Mondays :)
Some great finds in the charity shops Ian,I'm never that lucky finding graphic novels like those
Yeah having some luck with graphic novels/comics atm
Great video mate! My daughter is a civil engineer but she loves the charities too - a chip off the old block 🤣🤣🤣
Ha love to hear that Clara
Pet hate about charity shops....putting stickers on the front of comics!! Some are impossible to remove without damaging the front of the page even using gum remover. Spoke to a lady who works in one and she has complained to her manager for months about it.
Anything paper!!
Yyasss agree with this... some boardgames too. Damages the packaging
Last years q4 i had a better Jan than i had Christmas strange really . I had a similar situation with LOL dolls bought a bundle of 11 at boot sale for £35 with accessories i need to go through i wanted to learn more about them . Great vid and nice pick ups
Cos i sell mostly toys Oct and Nov are usually the best months for me. Nice one on the LoLs!!
Some good find pal . Great video pal
Cheers kev
Chances of finding a Manowar t shirt ...excellent finds Ian .
That’s for sure
I'll be honest... never heard of them!
@@MasterofPieces bet it sells fast
Have a safe one buddy the weathers here is horrendous try and keep dry
Same to you!
Wow that xena comic book. What a find.
Ha I'm not believing that sold listing for 1 second
O wow love that horse 😊
All about swift wind
@MasterofPieces I used to have one like that, but it was black with pink hair called shadow from Golden Girl.from 1984 I think it was a knock-off from she ra
Screwball Scramble might be missing the mirror thing the ball jumps through before it gets to the maze tunnel by the looks, might be worth checking under the game board 👍🏻 that’s stung me before
Ahhh good shout will go and have another look at it
Interesting when you said (about the books) ‘I’ll leave them incase anyone else is looking for them’ - is that not the point of being a reseller? 😂
There is no profit in those books. He loves transformers and already has the books so his desicikn was based on,take them home and have doubles or leave them for another person to enjoy. These videos are not just about making money. This is a guy who loves vintage toys and pop culture and would rather someone else get the same joy he does
Yeah got those 2 already. They don't sell for much so I wouldn't be buying to resell... I'd be buying for the collection.
I absolute love your videos but you've gotta start mixing the sound when editing. One minute I'm cranking the volume up the next minute I'm wacking it way down
I hear you... mics are on the Christmas list
@@MasterofPieces Please do - the way you put together your vids and take time to talk off piste about other things make your videos better than your competitors by a strong strong margin. It's literally just the volume haha
521 commenter 😂 loving the videos as well mate 🙏🏻
Ha first this week!! #winner 🏆
Some nice pick ups m8
Cheers shaun
What was more exciting? 🤔
The gig or Ian’s civils? 🤩
😂😂
Not sure I’d be that arsed for reselling if I had civil engineer job 😂
But it's a hobby too. My daughter is a civil engineer and her job is so stressful. I'm an actress but I find going to car boots and charities really relaxing and mindful, and the extra money is a bonus :))
@@clarathordiss3663fair point. My main job doesn’t pay a lot but it’s little stress. I wouldn’t swap it for more money, life is too short.
Ha there's a lot of work that goes in before the jobs get to site. Reselling is a hobby and always will be... I'll never pack my full-time job in for it
Totally relaxing and rewarding Clara and opportunity to find things you wouldn't elsewhere.
Actress!!!! What you been in??
The charity shops in England are absolute shite compared to the 1s in Wales by the looks of em. All I ever find are Cliff Richard LPs and old tea cups.
They're not all like that, I can promise you.
Some cracking ones where I live, usually the local independent ones rather than the big nationals.
Very hit or miss here too
I was falling for a girl who would
Ask me to come over
Just for a day
When her parents were away
Now all I can do is lay in my room
Fall asleep, dream of you
Then wake up and do nothing about it
How long have you been a Civil Engineer? Seems like an interesting job.
About 15 years now
Is it worth selling stuff on vinted ian? E bay to mes a rip off
I don't sell on vinted tbh... like to keep it all in one place. Less fees tho
Our games all sellotaped can’t check
I just open them up tbh.
Saw some great picks ups.all taped .will start to open them .to many opportunities not to .good luck
Don't give us that load of old pony Ian. We all know you're a secret agent. Good cover story though.
Or am I 🤔🤫
hate modern urban architecture its creepy, austere and trying to be 70s brutalist but failing, far better days when we had seaside shelters with seating so us oldies could get out of the wind and take a rest and eat a sandwich on our trips to the coast, don't even have bus shelters in most towns and when they do there is no wind protection and no seating, its like the councils just want us to all die and clear off, and public loos are ugly filthy and never cleaned
