    To have a consistent daily listing, I started scheduling 1 item a day. I did this for 30 days. The next 30 days, I have started listing scheduling 2 items a day. After 45 days, I am already seeing a consistency in sales. I also try to list items immediately that I just picked up. I am part time and sell on multiple platforms. This method is working great for me. I also try to list similar items at a time when planning my scheduling of items.

      I’m a total novice on the classical side of music as far as value is concerned, though I have noticed that there are a lot really pricey ones in the sold listings. The tape lot I purchased had quite a few sealed classical cassettes, but I don’t think they are any crazy valuable ones. I’ll likely end up selling them off as a lot. Thanks for watching buddy!!

    I'm sure you've thought about this, but I would definitely take advantage of building a new bathroom to have more accessibility features for your mom, especially if your main home doesn't have it. I'm not sure that you have the space there for a shower you can roll a shower wheelchair into, but at the very least, a higher handicap toilet would be awesome. I know it's hard to lose someone to any kind of dementia, but I do know that you're doing a great job.

      Thanks so much for the great suggestions!!😊 I do plan to make it as handicap accessible as possible. My middle brother was in a bad car accident at 18 and lived his last 8 years in a wheelchair and hospital bed suffering from a traumatic brain injury. That said, I have witnessed first hand the difficulties that a lack of handicap accessibility can create both in and out of the home. I actually built my house with that experience as a guide!!

      @@travisstephens3943 No problem buddy!! I try to not spend too much time scanning on site at any one spot. But, the truth is, the only way to learn a new category well and speed up the picking process is by looking items up and building our working knowledge. And I guess that’s part of the argument to be made for niching down, so that picking can be more efficient and targeted without having to spend so much time comping. But I like the hint and learning process of selling everything. I do try to make my rounds first and then go back and look up items, media or otherwise. If I feel like it’s gonna be great on the spot, I pick it up to look up later and continue my rounds. Also with media, though I’m sure I miss stuff all the time, there are nuances that you learn along the way which helps to narrow the research before scanning/comping on site. Hope that helps a little!! Thanks for being such a great supporter of the channel!!

    be careful with anything Taylor Swift , media should be ok but anything that is her brand, especially clothing, is a sure Vero. Those trolls might be worth a few $$$ , especially if they are 60s era. I also always look at cookware , it's hard to let it go when i find a nice piece. Do you ever look at glassware ? im thinking your area could be a treasure trove for old glass like " Fire King ". Hope your Mom enjoyed the dinner out , its really great that you help keep her active ! your a good Man.

      even though glass makes me nervous when i ship it , so far so good ! you cant write Fragile on the box with USPS or they will make you purchase their yellow Fragile sticker which cost an extra 10 bucks or so. So i always tell them no glass if they ask.. lol.. and pack it well ! I suppose if it was something really high dollar i would charge for and use their " Fragile " service. It will never be a staple but i wont pass it up if meets my metrics.

    Thank you for sharing your experience. As a rural midwest reseller, I can tell there is no secrets for my sourcing - just pure luck. The mantra is -Be in the right place at the right time, and you might find a treasure. I also used to tell people that I was a reseller, and found out most people do not like us. Luckily, we have a local thrift store that sell flat price average 4$ a piece, no matter condition or tag or no tag. Also goodwill outlets aka Bins, is 40 min away, I go there once a week, never come home empty handed, the sell by weight, $1.59 per pound, and so my pile usually averages $2 apiece. Blessings.

      It is absolutely a right place right time situation!! Many times I go in and only get one or two items, and sometimes nothing. But it seems like when I do score, I score pretty big!! I like the bins as well, but my closest one is an hour away and it's really small and way overcrowded. Thanks so much for watching and commenting!!

      You just never know what's gonna pop up in these small thrift shops. That's one of my favorite things about them!!! Thanks so much for the kind words!! It's amazing how big of an impact a little kindness can have on those around you. And if there's anything good in me it's Jesus!! God bless!!

    So THIS is the video I have been waiting for. I resell books and thrift stores are the main source of my merchandise. I had casually noticed how I was getting better stuff at great prices from the small town thrifts vs city thrifts. Do you think it boils down to a lack of competition from other resellers or does it also have to do with fewer shoppers, who are not resellers, buying the merch?

      I think it's a little of all of it. Some of my smaller shops struggle with space to store all the donations for processing and getting put out for sale, especially of they don't move the merchandise pretty fast. I think that has a tendency to push prices down, which results in better deals for us as resellers. They can also be a little hit and miss at times which I think sometimes discourages other resellers from taking a chance with their sourcing time. Thanks for watching!!

      ​. Hmm, good point. I do often notice a sign stating " Not taking donations" I often try to "help them out" by seeing if they can bring out more books
