I love watching your analytical mind at work I totally love this kind of vids as well. thanks this does help a lot and I know this has been up for a while but still is valuable Thanks!
Matt is awesome and watch every single video he puts out. I can now go into a thrift store with over 300 brands to look for. Before the manifesto it was about 25 brands at most. I will start watching your videos as well. Thanks
The one thing to remember about when he says buy at the bins it's cheaper. His thrift stores in Cali are higher then a lot of places. I buy some of those brands at the reg thrift negate I can get it 2 or under
Excellent work Amber. The O'Neills will flip soon. As will the Johnnie-O and the Carhartt flannel. The Carhartt's the only one that mystified me as to why it hadn't sold. Really appreciate your making this video.
I 100% agree-can’t believe the Carhartt hasn’t sold or I haven’t at least gotten an offer. Thanks for being a good sport about us reviewing your Manifesto. It’s perfect.
This is awesome. I don't think there are two people anywhere that Melody and I trust more than you and @Thrift A Life. All of the people you involved are terrific.
Sold! I’m buying the manifesto. I often get analysis paralysis and this will help me pull the trigger much faster. Thanks to Matt (who I’ll be subbing to) for the work and Amber for this super relevant video.
Glad to see the latest video. I personally found Matt's manifesto relatively recently. When I saw this video come up, I knew with your love of stats this was right up your alley. Thanks for the info, greatly appreciate it. Being from VA I've got to check out the accompanying vids.
I hate when people try to negotiate the cost to get a total of X. I accepted a few offers like that and they always complain about the tax because they forgot about tax.. I no longer accept low offers that are "I will only pay $20 total 14 + 6 shipping".
i just cant wrap my head around the over 100% sell through rate? It makes no sense to me...it doesn't take into account how long items have been listed and what is the percentage out of ....is it just me?
Number of items sold in the last 90 days divided by current number of items listed . Here’s an example. If I go to eBay right now and search for “Mens rock revival jeans”, there are 1500 listings currently for sale. If I toggle to sold listings, there are 3400 listings. These are 3400 sold listings within the last 90 days. Therefore the sell through rates is 3400 divided by 1500 or 226%.
This was fun, and you picked up a sub. I pretty much started reselling in October last year with no menswear knowledge at all. My wife had purchased nearly every piece of clothing I've owned since the day after we were married... 39 years ago. I also love the fast turn model since we live in an RV, so we have a tiny amount of space available to work from. My inventory is sliding up under 200 items this week. It's worth using as a business tool if menswear is your niche.
Thanks for subbing! Do you travel around the US in your RV? I’ve always loved the idea of traveling around the US, funding the travel by stopping at thrift stores, and having a small amount of inventory. Would make a great RUclips channel!
@@AmberResells Yes, we do! I actually built out a Shuttle Bus for us to retire in, and we're subsidizing our travels by thrifting. Currently in central California, but soon heading up toward Salt Lake City. (I love shopping at Deseret Industries aka 'the DI') We're mostly making a circuit of the Pacific Northwest. We've thought about expanding into a channel, but heck, I'm 60 something.
From the moment I started following Thrift a Life, I immediately thought of your videos because you're both data driven. This collab was perfect and my favorite of many recent ones I've seen. I hope you guys make another one soon.
Thanks, Amber, for this very helpful video. I also will be getting Matt’s manifesto. I love his channel too. So much knowledge… hoping my brain won’t explode 🤯
Great video!!! Like you I am data driven also. I love your vids and Matt's. I found and flipped a pair of supply & denim jeans last month. It is a deadstock line since 2016 I believe. My two favorite jeans are American eagle 30-34 waist and lucky brand.
Hey Brent! Thanks for leaving a comment-I don’t think I’ve seen you in my comment section before 👋🏼 Are there certain style of AE and LB jeans that are your favorites to find?
@@AmberResells I haven't left comments before but this video collaboration really was enjoyable and somewhat true to what I have been finding. I have just been selling since between Xmas and NYE. I have slowly nitched down to men's jeans primarily since is what is selling for me and using eBay analytics. I live in New London, CT so my sourcing selections aren't the best but I go with what is available. For American Eagle, almost all styles sell really quick for me
@@alzibiades When you’re as focused in a category as you are, you’ll definitely learn quickly! Thanks for taking the time to comment and leave your Jean experience. Have you seen my top 10 Men’s jeans video? You might find it interesting. The Top 10 Best-Selling Men's Jeans Brands on Ebay and Poshmark ruclips.net/video/bH4xtAtNH_k/видео.html
@@AmberResells I have watched them a few times actually and copied bolo list to Google keep so I can have it handy when thrifting. I forgot to mention but just a general observation is jeans with embellished pockets or flap pockets seem to sell really well right now.
Another great video from Amber. I haven't watched the other videos yet but I bet part of the reason they found more is due to more experience. We all know that it takes time to stop and look up comps on items!
Great job on the work you did on this project. I will subscribe to your channel since you buy a lot of brands that I like. Actually do you still have the Adidas pants
Great idea Amber. I follow Thrift a Life and have been meaning to purchase his manifesto. Just watched all 4 of you and bought it immediately. I’m in Minnesota, so will give it a try and report back to you. 😀 nice job.
Thanks for the analysis, Amber! I've sold the Safari Series as well and they sold pretty quick. You mentioned several brands that I had not heard of. I will definitely be on the look out for them now and they may just appear in my next weekly what sold video!
Denim and Supply men's jeans sell really well for me and quickly. Although, every pair I've sold has been blue denim. Last pair I sold was for $49 on Poshmark. I'm wondering if yours aren't moving because they're black denim? 🤔🤔
I watched your video first. I was anxious to see what you found from the manifesto. I use and love it. I am in Indiana and have found most of the same common brands you did. Hopefully there is hope for me to find Psycho Bunny at some point.
I love this collab! Love the manifesto - it has served me well too. When I first started reselling I found a Psycho Bunny Hoodie at the bins and it sold for $50 within 2 hours. Great brand!
Buyers like those with that Adidas sale really stink! Great video as always, Amber! No doubt the Adidas GOLF pants will sell soon, though! They do well for us, and golf season is nearly here. This is such a great collab. Matt's content is amazing, and the manifesto is just awesome.
Hi Amber! I haven't tried selling on FB Marketplace but would like to. I am concerned about charging taxes to the buyer....does FB collect and submit for you or do you have to figure out the tax yourself and submit to their state? Anxiety over how to do that has prevented me from listing. Thank you!

Love watching your videos!
Matt made it a treasure hunt. If you only what to photograph and list things that will sell, he's your bodhisattva.
Awesome video! Can’t wait to watch the rest of them!
I love watching your analytical mind at work I totally love this kind of vids as well. thanks this does help a lot and I know this has been up for a while but still is valuable Thanks!
Love watching Matt. Also enjoy his humor. 😁 He is so smart & shares so much info. 😊
Never question Matt
I bought the manifesto and it has helped out a bunch. The plan works down here in Georgia for sure.
Awesome, thanks for reporting back. I’ll pass along the compliment to Matt.

@@AmberResells IMHO, if it doesnt have the box logo on the chest the value is much lower to the customer
You should do a clip on what size men's and women's actually sell. What size you stay away from. Do you do any kids cloths?
Came hear because of MM. Enjoyed seeing how you went on and good luck in the future.
Hey Amber - do you think you can do a video on the Poshmark algorithm changes? You are always so insightful, I know many would love your input!
I would hold on to the Denim & Supply black jeans @$50 till they sell; you can get all the money for them.
Really good video! I've been following Matt for awhile now.
Oh, we KNOW who Matt is! lol You can actually pay him for the manifesto!!!
As usual for you, excellent work!
Good video, happy to have you back I also follow Matt.
Does Matt update the manifesto? If so, how often?
Love the analytic mindset
Thank you!
This is awesome. I don't think there are two people anywhere that Melody and I trust more than you and @Thrift A Life. All of the people you involved are terrific.
What a compliment! Thank you Scot!
I think his Manifesto is a great resource for sure! Great video :)
Do you cross list everything on eBay and postmark ?
Yes!
Sold! I’m buying the manifesto. I often get analysis paralysis and this will help me pull the trigger much faster. Thanks to Matt (who I’ll be subbing to) for the work and Amber for this super relevant video.
Love the data driven video. Thank you for all you do.
Hello! Fellow Des Moinite here. I use his manifesto frequently! I use it mostly to rule things out but also for unfamiliar brands.
Glad to see the latest video. I personally found Matt's manifesto relatively recently. When I saw this video come up, I knew with your love of stats this was right up your alley. Thanks for the info, greatly appreciate it. Being from VA I've got to check out the accompanying vids.
Very interesting! Enjoyed the video!
Thank you! Your last video made me excited for garage sale season! It’s just starting to warm up here!
Great video! Love the Manifesto and refer to it often. IMHO many of your unsold items are spring summer so they will move soon. So fun. Thank you. 😘
That’s a super good point! Duluth shorts, cabelas short sleeves, O’Neill swim trunks. Hopefully they’ll move as the weather warms up.
has anybody asked yet?? Does this exist for womens clothing anywhere?
Wish there was a women’s version of manifesto
That would have to be updated and revised about every week!
So do I
A women’s version would take years and would end up around the size of the encyclopedia Britannica.
There would be a section of “Jeans that may make your butt look fat”🤣🤣

I’ve heard great things up DIs. If I’m remembering right, people have said those are really great in Utah.

Awesome finds!! The Johnie-O peice has such a crazy awesome print on it!
Right? It’s so cool. Thanks for joining in the collab!
Gosh, this was great! 👍❤
I love this video. I watch both you and Matt. I enjoy the content you both produce.
Hi Amber, new here how did you get the Manifesto on your phone?
I just opened it from my email, and it automatically opened in a web browser or only Google drive.
This was a great video! Thanks for sharing
Thank you Jenny!
You’ve convinced me to actually get the manifest, thanks so much for sharing 👍🏻
I use his manifesto and gave him I think 5 coffees? Something like that. Excellent review.
Really really enjoyed Y'all doing this video format...very cool to see how the brands do in different areas ! 😊👍
Yes, 100%! There was quite a bit of overlap in the brands Bob and I found, even though we are many states away from each other!
Nice video. I got the manifesto about three months ago. Gave Mat $10 for it and it has been worth every penny.
Thanks, Amber, for this very helpful video. I also will be getting Matt’s manifesto. I love his channel too. So much knowledge… hoping my brain won’t explode 🤯
I sold a Billy Reid Bond Coat for $500… keep an eye out for coats!
OooooOOOoo.. someone has a crush
All Carhartt flannel shirts I have ever listed sell within a month of listing them.

Of course, it is DressedByAmber2.

So excited for this collab and for a new @amberresells video!! I have never seen or picked up BKE men’s jeans….but it’s on my list to keep out for.
Never!? I’m shocked. Must not be the daily wardrobe for a large portion of the male population like it is around me. 😀
I love this collab! Love the manifesto - it has served me well too. When I first started reselling I found a Psycho Bunny Hoodie at the bins and it sold for $50 within 2 hours. Great brand!

😂😂 He also pronounces Nike like it rhymes with bike. Do you do that too?
@@AmberResells no that is a UK European thing; however Nike is an American brand so how we say it is correct in this case 😂
