I love thrifting it never get's old the thrill of the hunt. Visit my shop Trading Post in Crystal Lake IL. Music from: Epidemic Sound My email deepinthecity7@gmail.com
I do but it's probably more work for him but since he doesn't want to get a RUclips strike he's gonna be doing this and yeah I agree nobody like music lmao in vlogs
Well what’s happening is their just selling stuff that they don’t want to put on their auction site. I personally think it’s a bad move on there part. The market will just even itself out eventually I think with their model. Around where I live they don’t put anything of value on the shelf. And the junk they put out is overpriced. I don’t understand why they do what they do.
I would have blown $300 in this goodwill... ours in CT are hit or miss. I either leave with 5-10 items or nothing at all. It all depends on the day, I guess.
My local goodwills suck, crap thrown all over the place and small, overpriced with limited selection. This place is a palace and crazy organized. I might have to relocate 😂🤣
40% off 7:45 You could've gotten that $20 large fish tank for $12. I love fish tanks I would've bought it in 2 seconds for myself . I never come across fish tanks when thrifting.
Love the Coogi sweater! I would definitely pick it up for $10 if I could flip it for $60-80. Wouldn't think twice! Stuff like that sells well. You have three things going for you, size of the sweater, brand name, and material. Good luck with it! I love your videos. You are just so practical and very helpful.
Pete The Fisher price globe view finder works when you place it on the white circles on the globe to reveal a picture relevant to the location you are looking at - however its useless if globe doesn’t spin - I had one as a kid - enjoy your videos and thank you
Thanks for the quality upload Pete . Me and my wife love the voice over inside the thrift easier for you to explain your thought process. And stupid Goodwill music gets louder Everytime we go.
If you drop the price by atleast 5% the customers that are watching OR even viewed will get an email notifying the price drop...this is the best because its extra marketing. Customers feel intrigued as to what item price dropped that they viewed!
I gained 75 lbs when i quit smoking, all for nothing bc 9 years later i started again like a jackass, its been 8 years and still smoking, but im quiting again
Its funny with resellers at the same goodwill. I work near one that is very small. Tons of re-sellers there. But they all look at the hard goods. So they leave the clothing to me which is awesome. And even with that many people, I still find some hard goods to sell. They are looking for a big ticket items while I go after anything I can double my money. Maybe not the best strategy but it works for me.
Oh btw new subscriber here I also do a lot of scrapping dumpster diving trash picking etc with my special needs autistic son he really loves doing it we recently decided to start making videos about it cause he wanted to share with the world also liked your video 👍👍👍👍
16:00 I disagree on the "good to cancel" option. Every 30 days ebay charges you another .35 cent insert fee on all your "good to cancel" listings. On 20 or 30 items this starts to add up, I just let them run out then relist at the beginning or the month when I have free insert promotions.
14.40 So that's what they call it. I often wondered how that worked. Regarding the voiceover, yeah YT is hot on copyright. Good tip regarding watchers. I will bear that in mind for my eBay sales (Trying again :) )
just when I was getting ready to take photos of like 50 goodwill items I bought this week, thanks Pete gonna watch it all right now! Love your videos packed with experience and tips, thanks as always.
Pete I 'm n ot a reseller but I love your videos. I always learn something. I never knew about the Coogi sweaters. I shop for myself and family so I will watch for this brand.
I have been hooked on your channel my friend! I am from Western Canada and love the mentoring you are providing. I look forward to your blogs everyday, I will be getting my business started soon on eBay, Pinterest, Kijjiji or Facebook. Hopefully I will have a chance to meet up with you on my next trip your way to discuss more ideas and direction. Keep doing what you are doing Pete, I love it, especially the garage sales/ dumpster dives and in store customer interactions. Is EBay the best platform to sell? What about Facebook or others? Thanks my friend, Darren from Alberta!
Hey a different kinda video with the voice over. Kimda kool but I prefer the normal way you do it, but this was great and I think the voice over goes great while you are shopping/picking/thrifting. That way we get a more detailed video and it's nice to see what your thinking while picking. I enjoyed this video, and I am a fan. Not the biggest fan but a fan. :)
I love the voice over you can get more in-depth than you do at the store. Question do you ever shop at the Goodwill Outlet bins? Usually the overpriced stuff in the store that doesn't sell is sent there and then you can get it real cheap might be a new area for resources. At least that's what the other Pickers I watch are saying. I enjoy your videos. AS Spock says on Star Treck, "Live long and prosper."
keep up this content man. just subbed after finding your channel 2 weeks ago. this commentary and your accent just sets it off for me. good work to you. you're quite the character. funny stuff
your channel and others similar thrifting channel killing my income as an professional thrifter.... all prices getting higher, all good stuffs getting harder to get, and even the thrift store employees starts thrifting too...!!!
some jackets are made that way......for workers who use saws etc...table saws can grab cloths and suck you in..your arms where like two inches to long for than one.
I enjoy the voice over more than your regular video audio. I'm assuming it allows you to better transfer your thoughts and ideas to us because you can take your time. :)
pete two questions how do you keep your personal purchases separate from your business purchases and the second is what deal do you have with you partner and how do you guys keep it all separate ect. thanks you rock
Do you just sell on ebay? And if so do you worry about ebay shutting down your account? I have been thinking about selling on ebay but am very worried about going in to it full time and then getting some bad feedback one month and having account shut down forever. I have heard it has happened to so many people. How do you protect yourself?
Personally, I wouldn’t answer ANY email sent to me so general like “hi...,what’s your source?” Give me a break. People like that can go.....fly a kite. 😄
Is it even worth thrifting at goodwill ? I figured by now they have someone scanning items on ebay by now lol. I went to a thrift store from donated items and they wanted $60 for kenneth cole shoes used lol.
It's getting bad. I saw a Laundry by Elle-somebody packable down coat MISSING the hood trim fur for $49.99! (Same coat with the fur trim sold for LESS than that on Ebay) In the same GW...saw a pair of lightweight dayglo orange canvas slip-ons by Sperry that were USED and they were priced at $35😳
Pete I hope you will help me with this question. I found a children's North Face coat in Goodwill today with no price on it. Their everyday price for children's coats here is 3.99 , but I get to checkout and manager knows I resell. They tell me just so you know, this coat is 99.99 which is used. My question is do I report this bull to their corporation office, or just deal with it. Thanks, Bret
In this business nobody really is your friend and neither are you to others, let it go for a day or two and it will pass, next time you see an item without a price tag take one off something else, make sure it's from the same category. Hint, I keep a sewing needle and a razor blade in my wallet just for such cases, sometimes you have to bend the rules a little.

I prefer the voice over like this Pete. It's much easier to listen to than with all the noise in the background.
Me too!
I think its kinda weird. Takes the realness out of it. Thats just my opinion.
I'm half and half - I'd say just edit in selective audio from the actual footage with voice over included. Maybe? Who knows - Keep em coming, papa!
I do but it's probably more work for him but since he doesn't want to get a RUclips strike he's gonna be doing this and yeah I agree nobody like music lmao in vlogs
$10 for a Coogi in good shape is a no brainer
Love these ! You never know what your gonna find at the thrift, The voiceover is a blessing in disguise turned out very well and professional
You should do more voice over videos. Very enjoyable and humorous at times.
Yeah, I got a chuckle at "Come on Pete, the shit is broken"
Goodwill is jusgt getting insane with their prices.
ain't it the truth
They have figured out to maximize their sales "profits" by cutting out the "middleman" (resellers).
Yeah wake up, it's because of this dickhead.
Well what’s happening is their just selling stuff that they don’t want to put on their auction site. I personally think it’s a bad move on there part. The market will just even itself out eventually I think with their model. Around where I live they don’t put anything of value on the shelf. And the junk they put out is overpriced. I don’t understand why they do what they do.
Getting?! Its pretty much there. Gems still fall through but nothing like it used to be. I visit GW less and less now.
Thanks for the upload! The commentary was actually really entertaining and funny
It’s cool to watch you out sourcing. Always good info from you! Love the Coogi!
Having a little bit of belly is way better than smoking. You won't ever regret quitting it's one instance where quitting makes you a winner.
Thank you for watching. Cheers !!
Agree!
I like this formatt better. As you can tell what you were thinking at a given time. This is a Great style PETE DON'T KNOCK IT.
I like the voice over record. Other then that it all good. I went thrifting yesterday. I got a lot cool stuff to sell.
Just found your channel , subscribed already
Yes i would pick up the sweater
Goodwills on the East Coast are utter shite compared to this selection.
I would have blown $300 in this goodwill... ours in CT are hit or miss. I either leave with 5-10 items or nothing at all. It all depends on the day, I guess.
My local goodwills suck, crap thrown all over the place and small, overpriced with limited selection. This place is a palace and crazy organized. I might have to relocate 😂🤣
40% off
7:45 You could've gotten that $20 large fish tank for $12. I love fish tanks I would've bought it in 2 seconds for myself . I never come across fish tanks when thrifting.
The Flat Earthers will Love Your Globe Voice Over..............
I would have bought it for a night light .
I confess, I kinda like the voice over. It's clearer, quieter, and well...I like your accent.
Too funny. Sounds like that old TV show.... Dragnet
Love the Coogi sweater! I would definitely pick it up for $10 if I could flip it for $60-80. Wouldn't think twice! Stuff like that sells well.

Love you talking over video better anyway, you are very funny too.
Good job quiting smoking

Your Kuhl jacket is WAYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY better!
Yes I love my Kuhl jacket. Thank you for watching. Cheers !!
First off great job on the quiting smoking, an keep the videos going. I love your channel.
I gained 75 lbs when i quit smoking, all for nothing bc 9 years later i started again like a jackass, its been 8 years and still smoking, but im quiting again

Hey Pete is there an update on that Nintendo switch that came in that was supposedly stolen?
Lollll @ the music copyright issue. Sorry man! Been there before too. So dumb
Hahah i like the voice over i like the days when internet wasnt so annoying woth copy rights
Hey I'm in the vlog! Always nice to see you around Pete.
Sorry Dave I could not remember your name. Thanks for watching. Cheers !!

I love your videos so much ! I have learned so much even though I'm 5 yrs in with eBay and 8 yrs in reselling total 😍 Thank you !
Your Goodwill is a LOT nicer than any of the Goodwills in my area.
Get the L L Bean! For resale!
I just found out that relisting still drops all your watchers.. only GTC keeps watchers
Kool honesty..good wills around here are picked clean from the inside before the stuff even hits the shelves if you know I mean.and I know you do.
14.40 So that's what they call it. I often wondered how that worked. Regarding the voiceover, yeah YT is hot on copyright. Good tip regarding watchers. I will bear that in mind for my eBay sales (Trying again :) )

I too was going to list. It can always wait to watch his videos.
Pete I 'm n ot a reseller but I love your videos. I always learn something. I never knew about the Coogi sweaters. I shop for myself and family so I will watch for this brand.
I LOVED this voice over. Funny and entertaining. Reminded me a bit of Jack Webb from the old Dragnet TV show...."Just the facts mam."
Yamaha makes EXCELLENT drums, both acoustic and electronic. If you ever find any Yamaha drums...let me know!
I loved the voiceover because you are a naturally funny guy. 👍🏽
LOL! you are keeping most of what you bought today.....that's me and it's dangerous!!
I totally agree! It never gets boring. Thank God for reselling as my kids won't let me buy for my grandkids any longer. They have too much stuff!
Mums the word and that's that! #happyselling ;-)
What is your opinion on auctions vs buy it now prices?
I have been hooked on your channel my friend! I am from Western Canada and love the mentoring you are providing.

Voice over is hilarious !
Thank you for watching. Cheers !!
The jacket you are wearing is my favorite brand (Kuhl) and are very expensive but extremely rugged and durable for outdoor. Better than North face.
I love the voice over you can get more in-depth than you do at the store. Question do you ever shop at the Goodwill Outlet bins?

I really enjoyed this video with you walking around checking stuff out! It was very interesting. Should do more like this.
Pete, I’d sleep better at night if you would start locking your camper shell. I get nervous when you can’t see your truck. I’m worried.
PETE I like you alive!! Forget the gut!!!!! It will Come off. Smoking is the devil!!!!
Agreed Vera Bradley is dead. $25 in every goodwill. When will Funko Pops go the way of Beanie Babies?
keep up this content man. just subbed after finding your channel 2 weeks ago. this commentary and your accent just sets it off for me. good work to you. you're quite the character. funny stuff
Every Goodwill on RUclips looks nicer than the ones I go to where I live. I wonder if this is staged like the moon landings! (Just a joke folks)
Yeah, I would have bought that sweater to resell. I'd never wear it, but I'd buy/sell it all day long....easy money!
Nope. Can’t watch. Voice over isn’t fun. The sound of spit in mouths. Gotta go. Hahahah
Congrats on the success with smoking Pete. I quit 10 yrs ago, still haven't managed to get on top of the added weight.
Hey it's Chris in Toronto - COOGI at $10 all day long, even the zipper front hoodies sell great.
your channel and others similar thrifting channel killing my income as an professional thrifter....
all prices getting higher, all good stuffs getting harder to get, and even the thrift store employees starts thrifting too...!!!
Yes Goodwill is getting very expensive, considering the stuff is donated and supposed to be for people who cant afford to buy stuff and its a shame.
some jackets are made that way......for workers who use saws etc...table saws can grab cloths and suck you in..your arms where like two inches to long for than one.
I was watching this vid and shipping a Coogi at the same time you were talking about it.. Sold mine for 65
I enjoy the voice over more than your regular video audio. I'm assuming it allows you to better transfer your thoughts and ideas to us because you can take your time. :)
you ever check out the golf clubs, could have been a ping putter in there.
Yea I would have picked up the Coogi
Voice-over that's nice// hear that much saliva that's annoying 🤮🤮🤮🤪
No no no no !! Don’t eat food while you are recording. So gross bro.
Love your channel tho!! Just don’t do that again. 😆
Thank you for this video! You Rock.....
Karen
Thanks for drifting tour! Voice over was nice. It felt like deep thinking.
pete two questions how do you keep your personal purchases separate from your business purchases and the second is what deal do you have with you partner and how do you guys keep it all separate ect. thanks you rock
I have that globe..... it’s not for sale. :) mine doesn’t spin .... I use it as a night light doe the grand daughter

Found your voice very calming here
Vickys mum walked when you tried the brown jacket on
Yes nice coogi find easily should bring over 50 bucks
Pick up that pink castle down on the bottom, so Adrian has something to play with back at the shop!
I actually prefer the voice over. Consider going with it
Goodwill is too expensive to pick..
I don't even waste my time there
Do you just sell on ebay? And if so do you worry about ebay shutting down your account?

Its nice hearing you taking about US Ebay
I do like to buy used electronics, but I absolutely hate any type of used clothes!
Way to go on quitting smoking. that's a big achievement! :)
More thrifting Pete, when I’m not at the thrift shop I want to watch other people at the. Thrift shop.
Sexy accent. 😄
What App are you using for price comparison?
How do you ship your larger items? Priority?
Do you ever thrift in southern Wisconsin? Lots of goodies here.
Come on Pete "shit is broken " my favorite one liner hahaha
