I’m going to have to watch this video again to take notes as well as look through your store for ‘key words’ for items. You are a You Tube Creator, BUT you actually have a large store doing business and you’re buying all kinds of items for various prices. It’s so helpful to see someone who gives advice and is actually reselling for a living. Thank you for all the help.
Where I live, thrift stores are staffed by resellers. They pick out the best pieces before they even go into the store. There is absolutely nothing left except cheap polyester tops, plastic shoes and acrylic sweaters.
Hey Karen saying hi from the UK. So glad you are showing clothes again, you got me started selling after watching you a few years ago so many tips thank you. Ps had to add I live in a 600 year old thatched cottage it’s a privilege to share in its history even if my husband has multiple concussion’s from the wonky doorways and low beams 😂 . Keep up the great advice Lorri .
Trend’s trend’s trend’s..who cares…at my age I’ve earned the right to do as I please…what you see, is what you get…..hahaha….Thank you Karen….you always look Beautiful ❤️🌺🌻
It is always good to go to the stores at the mall, for example when you are in Florida, try to pick one of the nicest mall close to you and visit the stores personally. This is the great way to learn about trends and styles. You will learn that some brands carry not only for women, and kids but also for men. I bet there are many people who doesn’t know Lilly Pulitzer now has also clothes for men.
My favorite item was the St John Dress. I think the Lululemon is a fake. Even before you showed the label it screamed fake. I learned so much in this video, thank you. Please do more of these clothes videos.
What a coincidence for me to choose this video without it being in the title . It popped up on my side bar for a reason. I used to own a brick and mortar business and decided to open an Ebay store. I've been an entrepreneur my entire adult life and looking for another stream of income. You just inspired me, because I woke up thinking about my Ebay store believe it or not. It's the characteristic of an entrepreneur . Most of us can relate , our brains rarely shut down, when launching new ideas. You have really just sparked some ideas for me. I looked around your eBay store , you have very nice items. I'm still trying to get more items listed and its been challenging because I don't know my way around the layout of Ebay , the way I used to decades ago. Things have changed so much. Thank you so much for this video. I love when creators bring value . I'm a new subscriber now!
Yes, my mother was a fantastic seamstress and always matched patterns. I have always looked for match patterns and mention it in my listing since it is rare nowadays to find in clothing. Always a pleasure to see it.
I have noticed over the years that Ebay usually has a slump right around tax day. I think people are more aware of their money and how they're spending it, for a few weeks. I don't worry about branding either. If I like it, I buy it.
You can check authenticity of Lilly Pulitzer by the material pattern. There is the word Lilly worked into the print. Not sure it is always but most do have it. You have to look closely sometime.
Thank you for taking the time to give tips and reasons to buy certain items. All too often all we get to see is the redundancy of watching someone purchase and flip for a profit. Knowing what to look for, sign and hints makes a great difference. It makes your channel worth subscribing to.
The blue Lululemon is callled the Lululemon Run: Ice Queen Long Sleeve in Slope Stripe Limitless Blue Looks Authentic to me. They offer a service to replace the logos if they crack or fall off and it’s possible the replacement was put on crooked. Factory seconds are imperfect often and sold at their outlets.
Most of the time I get bored with people showing clothes haul. This was a great video. Very informative about the brands and how to spot the fakes. I took notes on this info. Thank you for sharing your knowledge.
Wonderful video Karen! I always learn so much from you! If I ever get the least bit discouraged with thrifting or selling, I watch one of your videos and I am ready to go again! You are an inspiration to us all! Thank you!
Who do I contact to check out a beautiful leather jacket with Versace stitched inside and other area’s. I googled and the info matched the jacket all over. Any idea what to ask for it. Thanks so much.
Your top is so darned cute. I think people like the fact that you are looking for excellent condition and quality items, that you clean/process for sale. That is important to your buyers. They are getting value. Your discussion on pattern placing on clothing is called "pattern matching". The pattern needs to line up on the front and sides of the garment.
I am going to save your video, always enjoy your videos. You have impeccable taste, as I’ve mentioned before. Thank you for sharing. I love love the longer sleeved cottage dress from LOFT. And, your tassel earrings are great!! Beautiful clothes. Amazing you can find these items thrifting!!
Karen thank u so much for this new information to me! Lining up the patterns was an o wow yes moment. We learned that in sewing class! As always a big thank you and best wishes! Kathlene
Trim is sometimes referred to as "gimp". I know that when I learned to sew, I was taught to match the patterns as this is the "proper way" and because so, it can cost more to make because you may have to purchase a little more fabric in order to get the patterns to match. Don't know about Tommy B though.
The lululemon top is called run: ice queen long sleeve in slope stripe limitless blue. You could probably look it up and compare. I would check the stitching and hem. It is suppose to have thumb holes. It’s from 2012
Hi Karen, thanks for going back to thrftiing the clothes. And you know the key brands to look for and also the fakes. Thanks also for picking up the larger sizes. Most American women are not the small single numbers. Karen you are looking happy these days, Roger must have something to do with it. Happy thrftiing!
very smart to stay away from luxury brands with the Shop Safe Act and all the platforms worried about authenticity. I tend o sell more vintage one of a kind things to be safe
Karen, third video in a row that you have triggered a memory for me. 😊 I used to make most of my clothes and yes, matching up the corresponding ''notches" from the pattern pieces on the design of the fabric was key. So, thanks again for bringing back memories plus giving us valuable insight on how to thrift. My favorite piece in the haul was the Robert Graham shirt. I love the colors.
As always Ms. K so fun AND informative. You had me LOL in a couple of spots. OK - fave from the rack - LOFT peasant dress - feminine and flirty. Thanks for sharing your knowledge and great finds.
Thank you about the information about Loft. I recently purchased a blouse on line. So, I quickly checked the label. Good to know it did not have those markings! I liked what you said about your earrings!
I thoroughly enjoyed this video. I was going to start reselling last year but had to put it on hold after an accident. I am still not 100% but really want to get started on a small scale for right now. I am so glad I found your channel. You are a wealth of information. I know I will learn a lot from you. I am going to start in my own closet since I am not completely mobile. Wish me luck! God bless!
Your advice is excellent. I’ve been thrifting for decades, for myself and not for resale, and no longer find anything new with or without tags anymore. I’m a size 4 so everything is also too big. Loved the Athleta top.
When I 1st started watching you, it was almost all clothing & few pairs shoes. I wasn't real interested in clothes, but learned alot from you. As you progressed into hard goods I have watched you more, but you really opened my eyes to the clothing/soft goods market. Now when I go to thrift stores, I give clothing, bedding & curtains a 2nd look, too. You are such a good teacher. So happy you're doing well & in love!
Thanks for sharing. My mom owned a boutique and she always shared somehow she succeeded in her business. I always love sharing. It’s a scriptural wisdom in it. So keep on sharing. So happy I found your channel 🥰👍🏼
Ulla Popken is a German Brand especially for the wonderful plus size ladies.They produce in Rastede,Germany and of course the Brand has NOT been selled to QVC or anyone else.I guess american people don' t know it so well, becouse they don't have own Shops outside Europe? Iam reseller myself and i love to find it.But iam located in Germany,where the Brand is well known.
About the Lululemon Top, I also think it is fake, because of the same reason You have mentioned , but I would look at the interior hem. If they interior has some type of wording and also the size number; then it is authentic.
You have a wealth of valuable information for resellers! Thank you for sharing your tips. I have enjoyed catching up on your last year or two of videos.
Here's your chuckle for the day. I just started watching you this weekend. Did a few minor binges and enjoyed them immensely. (Yes, I subscribed.) You showed a dress that you didn't know the label (Boston Proper), but you liked how it looked. Today, in my mailbox, in the middle of Missouri...I get a catalog from Boston Proper! You have a good eye. Their dresses are great!
It's so hard to find quality clothing at thrift stores when you live at the foothills of the Appalachian Mountains. Most clothes are polyester and not very gently used.....drats..... But I score something good every once in a while, so I keep up the hunt!
Thanks for all the info. Some I use but always good brush up.. I have unusually good luck with tv shopping brands. Many fans of them often look for specific items they missed out on when an item sold out.
Yes! My sales improved after I stopped relying on sales comps so much, but I do use my brain if there are no comps. I don't have a choice because I have very limited sourcing options.
your findings are incredible! I live in VA., close to Washington D.C. Unfortunately thrift stores here are full of flippers with their phones. It is almost imposible to find anything nice anymore. Prices in thrift stores here are a lot higher also. dresses for $ 16.99, Anything of a recognizable brand gets marked up.
I remember when your daughter was first getting you into selling & here you are on YT LOL. The SJ is VERY old vintage label. Should still go for a nice price, but they are a harder sell than more contemporary SJ. You can find the label on the VFG site I'm sure, but 70's from memory. Can't believe you found so many high end NWT pieces. Is this from a thrift store or a consignment shop? If it's a thrift, you've got an amazing thrift there! I've never heard of shoes being rubber banded together & our thrifts put stuff in color & size order, so the end of the aisle thing doesn't make any difference. Another tip, I like to scan the bottoms of the clothing, to see if there are any hanging tags, often a quick way to find NWT. Also, Ulla P has died for me too.
You’re a radiant angel ❤️ I just opened a thrift resell business and these were great tips! I’ve subscribed and am going back to your older videos! Thank you for sharing your tips & tricks! 😊
Ulla Popken is strictly online. And you're right once a brand goes QVC or TJMaxx, it's dead (to me). I'm sitting with Two Dennis Basso outfits that just. won't. sell. And that's because he's on QVC. I love Susan Graver, but her brand is another QVC item, and it's a slowwww seller.
Great video for anyone but especially someone who would like to do what you do. I'm sharing this with a friend who wants to try reselling clothes. You gave good tips and I appreciate your sharing. As you said you are blessed already and always find plenty so thanks again for your expertise and willingness to share.
@@anotherinternetidiot6300 I do see your point as Goodwills, Thrift Stores, etc. have increased their prices lately but everything every where is increasing including wages. Granted, the wage increase hasn't helped people because the cost of everything else is up. As far as thrift stores go, people in other areas seem to find things that I could never find here. So even though these resellers make money off of their finds, you may get a better buy of something you wanted or liked than at retail that you wouldn't have found at your thrift store. I have never bought anything from a reseller but there is a lot of work in it and I would rather do a regular job than try reselling myself but I do respect your opinion.
Great finds! I especially loved the Lily Pulitzer romper dress, the Tori Burch dress, and the St. John dress. I need to stop relying on sales comps so much.
English Laundry does the embroidery on the seams too, Mens. When I was younger, Mom would drive an hour to buy Allen Edman shoe polish, so ya, high quality, they carry all men's wear, alot of suits I would pay 35 for the Ulla :)
Your prices at the goodwill are sooooo much lower than ours. The first 5 things you showed, would of been a minimum of 2-3 to 4 times more in WA state.
Can you do a 101 Ebay tutorial how tos comps and etc please dying here because I don’t know how to Ebay and I’m only sell on Poshmark that right now is not working!!
I definitely don’t want to live in a cottage, I like living in between two grocery stores within a mile. I laughed out loud. I never heard of Lilly Pulitzer....I don’t really know of any of these brands but, Polo!
Just ran across your channel and I absolutely love it! 🥰 I had a resale shop back in 1992 and have enjoyed reselling ever since. You don’t have to worry about competition as there is always enough to go around. I’ll be waiting for your next video and checking out your store. Thanks so much for sharing. Always grateful 💝
Thk you for sharing your ideas.Most of it that you share is greatly appreciated. I plan on selling clothes again and yes I will be glad to use some of your input.” On the shirt topic that you mentioned the stripes was alighned to the stripe of the shirt was that means” they are tailored well” just like you said it’s tells you it’s legit!!😁😁! Thx again! Good luck!!👍
I’m not a seller, just a buyer. The most important thing to me in clothing is fiber content, I won’t buy anything with synthetic fibers, even blended with natural fibers. For shoes, belts and bags, only genuine leather.
Hi Karen, Boy you found some great clothing! We do not have St. Johns much around here. The black dress would look so nice on you-you should keep it! Lilly Pultzer love her clothing, always cheerful colors. The dress you found would look great on you playing golf, tennis or visiting Mellissa!--What do you think??? I am trying to be your fashion consultant! LOL ( kidding). I found Tory Burch shoes most of the time leather and great return,
It depends. I would not tell people to pick up things that are really easy to find because it saturates the market, but often times, actually -- there is almost nothing that you find that I would ever find in the middle of nowhere, though other people could. The bigger problem would be telling people what you source from a dollar store, etc. The market would saturate immediately.
I 💖 yr video. This was so informative thank U so much. U have inspired to just be U don't get caught up in what everyone else does. I'm sure others that have watched U say the same. Amazing finds, tips & overall detailed video.
I’m going to have to watch this video again to take notes as well as look through your store for ‘key words’ for items.

Thanks so much! I’m trying 😅💜
I started doing the same last year here in the UK, it is really a clever way of getting beautiful clothing on a reasonable price. 👍
You have more style than most twenty year olds! Love you.
Where I live, thrift stores are staffed by resellers. They pick out the best pieces before they even go into the store. There is absolutely nothing left except cheap polyester tops, plastic shoes and acrylic sweaters.
Hey Karen saying hi from the UK. So glad you are showing clothes again, you got me started selling after watching you a few years ago so many tips thank you.

Keep up the great advice Lorri .
I think that trim on the Lilly Pulitzer romper is called "soutache" trim. It resembles ribbon and is usually rolled in some way.
Trend’s trend’s trend’s..who cares…at my age I’ve earned the right to do as I please…what you see, is what you get…..hahaha….Thank you Karen….you always look Beautiful ❤️🌺🌻
Right!
I’m way past the age of caring of high end or what’s in apparel.
If it’s comfortable I’m wearing it.

Great pick ups, Karen! For the Tory Burch dress, make sure to put “red floral” in listing title…trending for Spring & Summer! Cheers, Katia
Great Haul! We need Part 2❤️
I like the Burberry shirt-the color, the pattern. Condition looks very good.
Enjoyed your show so much always learn something new! Love an light to you
Your advice is excellent. I’ve been thrifting for decades, for myself and not for resale, and no longer find anything new with or without tags anymore. I’m a size 4 so everything is also too big. Loved the Athleta top.
Love the clothing hauls. Thanks you so much. God Bless your day.
You hit the jackpot on clothing. Its good to research brands it gives us resellers an advantage while shopping 🛍
Reselling is ruining thrift stores. Low income people who can't afford to dress professionally buying new are losing to your profit.

I love Ulla Popken! I remember it as a European brand because the first time I found it was in their store in Germany when I lived there.
Ulla Popken is a German Brand especially for the wonderful plus size ladies.They produce in Rastede,Germany and of course the Brand has NOT been selled to QVC or anyone else.I guess american people don' t know it so well, becouse they don't have own Shops outside Europe?

@@sandraberger9278 Thank you for the insight! I wish they had stores in the US. I would ship there for sure!
@@nrenoll You are welcome.Awww i would love to shop sooo many American Brands that dont sell here😭
About the Lululemon Top, I also think it is fake, because of the same reason You have mentioned , but I would look at the interior hem. If they interior has some type of wording and also the size number; then it is authentic.
The tip you gave about the pocket matches the pattern is gold. Thank you.
You have a wealth of valuable information for resellers! Thank you for sharing your tips. I have enjoyed catching up on your last year or two of videos.
Here's your chuckle for the day. I just started watching you this weekend. Did a few minor binges and enjoyed them immensely. (Yes, I subscribed.)
You showed a dress that you didn't know the label (Boston Proper), but you liked how it looked.
Today, in my mailbox, in the middle of Missouri...I get a catalog from Boston Proper!
You have a good eye. Their dresses are great!
Thank you for the information on the St. John knit name. I just found a pair of their knit pants last week at the bins!
What a steal on the Lilly Pulitzer. There are so many Lilly fans out there, me included hence the print in my avatar!
I once fell into many pieces of St john at an auction. I paid up but was well worth it! Thanks for keeping us company .. " sleepless in Indiana "
It's so hard to find quality clothing at thrift stores when you live at the foothills of the Appalachian Mountains. Most clothes are polyester and not very gently used.....drats.....
But I score something good every once in a while, so I keep up the hunt!

Not all Tommy shirts have a matching pockets. Older ones don't always match and they are 100% authentic

Thanks Kathleen 😘😘
Thanks for showing us keys things to look for in these clothes line 👍
Hi Karen - Robert Graham has a Limited Edition line…major $$$!
Great video for anyone but especially someone who would like to do what you do. I'm sharing this with a friend who wants to try reselling clothes. You gave good tips and I appreciate your sharing. As you said you are blessed already and always find plenty so thanks again for your expertise and willingness to share.
Tell your friend to get a real job instead of taking the good clothes from low income families who need them. Resellers are killing thrift stores.

Hi Karen! Great video…per usual! FYI…Jack Valentine calls the shirt/jacket blend a SHACKET. CLEVER…and makes the point!
😂 brilliant!👍
Unbelievable clothes haul....so much fun.
Your prices at the goodwill are sooooo much lower than ours. The first 5 things you showed, would of been a minimum of 2-3 to 4 times more in WA state.
same! And never any NWT

What a great video! Love when you do a clothing haul - I always learn so much! Thanks.
Amazing! The black beautiful St. John’s dress! Just beautiful!
Can you do a 101 Ebay tutorial how tos comps and etc please dying here because I don’t know how to Ebay and I’m only sell on Poshmark that right now is not working!!
I never see such nice things in any of our thrift stores unfortunately 😞 where to look ? Thank you for sharing such valuable information 🙂
you have such a good eye for style
I definitely don’t want to live in a cottage, I like living in between two grocery stores within a mile. I laughed out loud. I never heard of Lilly Pulitzer....I don’t really know of any of these brands but, Polo!
Thank you beautiful advise. I learned a lot and will put to good use. I just started thrifting again. I also have new boutique store online too.
Just ran across your channel and I absolutely love it! 🥰 I had a resale shop back in 1992 and have enjoyed reselling ever since. You don’t have to worry about competition as there is always enough to go around. I’ll be waiting for your next video and checking out your store. Thanks so much for sharing. Always grateful 💝
Thanks so much!!💜
Thk you for sharing your ideas.Most of it that you share is greatly appreciated. I plan on selling clothes again and yes I will be glad to use some of your input.” On the shirt topic that you mentioned the stripes was alighned to the stripe of the shirt was that means” they are tailored well” just like you said it’s tells you it’s legit!!😁😁! Thx again! Good luck!!👍
I’m not a seller, just a buyer. The most important thing to me in clothing is fiber content, I won’t buy anything with synthetic fibers, even blended with natural fibers. For shoes, belts and bags, only genuine leather.
Hi Karen, I’m new to your channel and I throughly enjoy watching you videos. Very informative and you stay on “topic”, thank you for that.
thank you for the video. I'm learning HOW TO watching your video.
So much good info, I am new at this and I greatly appreciate your wisdom.
You are just THE BEST. Thank you for sharing, time and time again!
And Goodwill is LOADED with fakes so resellers need to be careful when buying them from thrift stores
Absolutely! 👍
Hi Karen, Boy you found some great clothing! We do not have St. Johns much around here. The black dress would look so nice on you-you should keep it! Lilly Pultzer love her clothing, always cheerful colors. The dress you found would look great on you playing golf, tennis or visiting Mellissa!--What do you think??? I am trying to be your fashion consultant! LOL ( kidding). I found Tory Burch shoes most of the time leather and great return,
I enjoyed watching this video so much its not even funny! Just loved it. This should literally be a TV reality fashion show. Love..
Youre so sweet!! Thanks so much!
It depends. I would not tell people to pick up things that are really easy to find because it saturates the market, but often times, actually -- there is almost nothing that you find that I would ever find in the middle of nowhere, though other people could. The bigger problem would be telling people what you source from a dollar store, etc. The market would saturate immediately.
I like that you talked about the quality to look for in clothes
I 💖 yr video. This was so informative thank U so much. U have inspired to just be U don't get caught up in what everyone else does. I'm sure others that have watched U say the same. Amazing finds, tips & overall detailed video.
