  • This Week I'm checking out 50 random thrift stores in my area, and I'm bringing you along with me! Hopefully we can find some great stuff to resell for a profit. But to be honest, I have no idea what to expect, it could be amazing or a total disaster. Oh well, there is only one way to find out...let's go!

    Your so right about books it's something I've never thought to resell and walk right past them. I guess I need to build up some knowledge in that area. Great video always watching

    FYI, those lego baseplates that were in that lego bundle can be worth MASSIVE money!

    I’d kill to have anything like McKays I’m New Jersey. I find so many media items that are borderline worth listing on eBay; it would be so much more worth it to take them somewhere and get trade credit.

    That N64 Game case is AWESOME!! I'm a gamer and a thrifter/collector/reseller. I believe I'd be keeping that one. So clean.

    i just got a CD copy of Minutemen’s “Double Nickels on the Dime” still sealed from local Goodwill. A friend tipped me off it’s out of print and going for $50+ on eBay. I paid 99¢.

    Hey man. Love the videos. I was wondering. When you or just in general people sell on eBay. Is it not worth it to promote things ? To pay the price. Or is it

    • @FlippityFlip
      @FlippityFlip  Месяц назад

      I haven't done it in years, but I've been reading lately on reddit that sellers have been reporting very good results with promotions. If it's a high-end item it is probably worth it, but I'm not really sure just yet.

      Best store I know of is Mckays if you live in NC or TN. But I'm sure if you look around your area for collectibles/media stores that sell preowned stuff then they will make an offer for them

    books can be excellent finds and always skipped by most people. I once was hunting through books at a thrift and opened one up and a $20 bill fell out. Some people use some strange bookmarks!

      @FlippityFlip  Месяц назад +1

      I would look them up on eBay and if they are selling for $15 or more I'd sell them on eBay, but if not then take them to McKays and you can expect good trade credit. They also do straight up cash trades but it will be about 50% of what they offer in credit.

    Just out of interest: are you really unable to sell the cheaper stuff on ebay, or is it just not worth it to list/ won't sell?

    • @FlippityFlip
      @FlippityFlip  Месяц назад

      You can sell it easily, but if the price is below $15 then it isn't worth it because shipping will be $4.50ish for the lightweight stuff and the bubble mailer/box can be a dollar, not to mention ebay fees on top of all that and you aren't making much of anything in the end. I sell things that can be shipped media mail that are valued $11 or higher, everything else my cut-off point is $15. Unless it's heavy, then I usually just trade it or sell locally.
