    there's only one thing I hate more than high prices at flea markets and that's when vendors are too lazy to price their items

    • @filipinoflips
      @filipinoflips 9 месяцев назад +1

      On the flip side, sometimes vendors may price low if they haven't done research on their items. Let the seller make the first offer and find the gems!

      Kevin, where is Matt the part-time picker, Julian & Kayla the beardedthriftmachine, Kayla the homeschooling picker, and Josh and Hailey hairy Tornado, Do you not hang out with these 6 amazing pickers.??
      I had to quit watching Dave, who really got on my last nerve, unorganized, has so much inventory yet he goes out sourcing every day possible.
      Dave does a lousy job shipping orders out in timely matter.
      I'm surprised that Ebay and Whatnot haven't kicked him out.
      Just wondering for your opinion. Kevin Brown(Commonwealth picker)?

    • @kellyredinger5974
      @kellyredinger5974 9 месяцев назад

      Why would you say such things about Dave? If you don't like the way he runs his business, just don't watch him. He is really a great guy. He has ADHD. If you look at the symptoms, Dave has them all. He even advertises about his ADHD. I will never understand why someone can slam another person from their key board when the victim can't respond. Would you walk up to someone in person and say the things you posted? I doubt it. Do better.​@marshathomas7575

      ? If I do that it’s because it’s true. I wouldn’t have paid 10 for the other set. The heads are scratched very badly. It is harder to sell and will sell for around 30. That’s a lot of work and no sure sake.
