This video is SO timely! I was just telling my husband that I was going to start picking up more shoes, so long as I can find them in good condition. I’be been having some good boot sales lately and the ASP is just sooooooo nice that now I’m hooked lol.
Classic GOAT material! Best of the best. Useable info. delivered concisely and smoothly. I'm off to hunt for more shoes. We've never met, but I feel like I'm watching an old friend. All the best to the RalliRoots team.
I think for on cloud I've found you need to make an exception and also filter brand caus adidas also makes a bunch of stuff called cloud foam and such to get a more accurate %
I love your videos. I'm older so maybe something has changed but I have always known the W beside the size on shoes to mean wide, not womans. 6W would be a 6 wide, 6N is a 6 narrow.
Thank you! Great sourcing! You must have a knack for finding great items or be in a part of the country where sourcing is plentiful. I’m in the Bay Area CA and haven’t started yet. Soon. eBay is a steep learning curve. Showing us how to calculate the sell through rate was very helpful. Layout. Listing. Thank you! 😊
Some REALLY great tips, Thank you!!! Besides that I enjoy your authenticity & style the most!!! This video was soothing! Good background music choices too!
THANKS RYAN!! I always learn from your videos & even though I am not a reseller, it is very interesting, and fascinating to me how you & Alli have made such a profitable business for yourselves!! You're awesome! Until next time, 😊
Hi Ryan, Anyway you could make a video showing how you get such perfectly white backgrounds on your listings? I use a faux wood backdrop and I always wonder if it affects my sales or doesn’t matter. Any thoughts or opinions? Thank you
So I just checked the sell through rate for my 100 listings on eBay. Nothing was over 50% and I'm wondering why I'm lucky to have one sale a week! (Almost all of my items were free for me, either new items from Amazon pallets or vintage ceramics). I was thinking "100% profit, minus fees", but it's zero profit if nothing sells. Thanks for the wakeup call!
Well this explains where all the shoes go from the bin places like Goodwill. Here in Nashville there a group that once the bin comes out swarm, push people aside and take everything then go through the shopping carts later. They dont make sure when grabbing if there is a match or any damage. They tell you the shoes including high heels are sent to poor countries in africa but looks like they go to Florida. Quite the profit when they buy by the pound and sell high. They buy nothing else but shoes
Thanks Ryan, that was very helpful. I don't have anything like your awesome flea market, so I may have to source online. I may also join your class. Thanks again.
Fighting force was one my favorite games on the ps1. Unlocked memory I forgot all about that game. Lucky to find it in practically new condition considering how old it is,cool find!
I’ll stick with GW and yard sales. Some of those prices in those markets are way too steep to make a decent profit. Doubling is not a good return today.
Win-Win he said $50 for the boots and he valued $25 for the shoes that’s why He said $75 total 👋 when you offered $100 he raised it 10 to $85 Crazy stuff but as long as you both feel like you won that’s cool 🤙🏻
Is there a way to figure out a shoe size if the information is missing? I’ve got a pair of underarmour shoes that are missing insoles and shoe size. They’re white and in nice condition. Loving your channel. New subscriber.
@@KD1234-s4r Maybe, but i was specifically referring to those that have 100k or more subs. The above mentioned are it, but then again they have been doing this for awhile, so.
Saw you reviewing other peoples eBay stores. I am just starting out so my rating is 0...😢. I only have a personal page as Im only putting on stuff Ive had laying around for years. Im only at 4 item but slowly updating more items. Do you have any guidance you can provide
Shoes do seem like an easy product to resell... but personally, I only buy shoes if I can try them on first, because getting the right fit can be tricky. I would think you'd get a lot of returns from people like me who normally take a size X, but find that in this one particular shoe they need a size larger or smaller. So, isn't this kind of a high-return product to sell?
Mmmm depends, including shipping probably not. Charging shipping maybe. $15 - fees is about $13.2 - cost of goods = $6.70, depends how fast the item sells and how long it took you to source/list it. We usually stay away from anything under like $35 sale price
*I Don't get it, foot wear is something I bought once online and will never do it again. I bought Brand New in my size but they just did't fit right. Shoes to me are one of those items that you need to try on before you buy. I'm just sayin. BTW where is that flea market or maybe you don't want to reveal the location.*
Thank you so much, Ryan! I’m really new to sourcing and reselling. You explained so much in a clear and understandable manner. I really appreciate your channel and all the work that y’all do! Have a wonderful week! 🌻
I had 100% rating on eBay. A buyer gave me my first negative review and knocked me down. She wrote that the shoes she bought were not a size 8 as marked because they were too small!! Now I'm always afraid when I send out shoes.
That’s a tough situation 😞 I would reach out to the buyer and try to get them to change the feedback. You can do what’s called a feedback revision request.
I asked a lot of the people I know who are just buyers on eBay, they all said yeah they look at rating but if your one bad rating is not really relevant then it doesn’t deter them. I have a neutral feedback of the item was wrapped to well and a negative that the new product just didn’t work, none of those really can compare to the 100s of good feedback, just keep going!
I once had a lady on posh mark that told me she didn’t have enough money to buy one of my baby outfit so I knocked down the price then she come back saying the baby clothes had stains on them like my baby spit up milk on the shirt I wouldn’t even sale cloth with stains or rips. Poshmark policy is you can complain about stuff you just get to say something to them with out a comment and you would get your money back and you also get to keep the out fit if they thing the other person is right
Love shoe's and boots, I got to find a better way to remove the pet hair, almost every pair I buy is loaded inside and out, I'm using tape now but it's slow process any ideas 🤑
Hi guys. I'm fairly certain you are calculating the sell through rate incorrectly. Sell-through rate = (number of units sold/number of ALL units received) x 100 So for ebay, a sell through rate must include ALL items listed (both sold and active listings) in the denominator. So in your example, the equation would be 195/535=.3644 or a sell through rate of 36%. The 535 comes from the ebay listings sold(195)+active(340) which are both factored into the denominator. The way you did it in the video doesn't really tell you anything, as there is no commonality between the two totals (sold/active). The numbers are arbitrary to each other in your example. Think of it like a batting average, which is just a hitting rate for a baseball player. The average comes from the amount of hits they get divided by the amount of at-bats (hits + non hits). It is not divided only by the amount of non-hits. A batter with 30 hits in 100 at bats has a .300 avg (30/100). Your method would give them a .429 (rounded up) avg which is incorrect (30/70). For ebay specifically, this still wouldn't be 100% correct, because some sellers may not relist the items, and we're not factoring in completed/non-sold items. If we did, then we would run into the problem of counting a listing multiple times. We're assuming most sellers relist when unsold. Hope this helps everybody. If I'm wrong here, please explain why. P.S. Yeah, I know, nerd alert! 🤓
For sure, both ways will give you an idea of if you should buy the item or not which is the point. We’ve used the sold/active method for 8 years and it works but yeah if you want to get precise, and if that helps ya, go for it. All I really care about is getting the item sold.
@@RALLIROOTS Understood. The idea is to get the items sold as quickly as possible. No argument there. But the sold/active method is not a sell through rate. It's actually not a rate at all. A less common item could have 5 active and 10 sold which by your math comes out to a 200% sell though rate, which just isn't accurate and physically impossible. It would be 66% which is drastically different (although still worth pursuing). A lot of people use your videos to help their business, and they should know the correct method. A sell through rate is important to a business and they should know the real rate. The sold/active method isn't even worth calculating, as all you are really doing is comparing sold to active. One could just say there is 340 listed and 195 sold and stop there. The solution provided by that equation is not a rate. Numbers can lie if the equation is incorrect. I love your videos by the way. Just want others to know the correct way. This is meant as constructive criticism. peace and love
Tomato TOMato, we’re not talking about anything significant except for calculating if/how fast an item is going to sell. I 100% appreciate the criticism and I 200% agree you are mathematically correct, but at the end of the day this isn’t a math exam and not calculating the sell through rate how you want me to isn’t going to cause harm to you or anyone else. If there’s 5 active and 10 sold I’m going to keep saying it’s a 200% sell through rate, which just means it’s a good buy 😉 thanks for watching.
I paid $25 for a pair of throughgood 16” lineman boots Saturday. I can’t wait to get them listed today. It was definitely a pay up for a YS. Should sell for $240. Gotta double check.
Ryan, a GREAT video. I appear to be doing everything right or as you suggested. I do not do free shipping on any items but you have me thinking about maybe on the shoes. P.S.--It appears you are missin the wife and Callie too -- don't worry they will be home soon. Take care.
Hello I want to transition from garage sales , flea markets etc for sourcing to a more consistent source . What would be your advice on what direction to go in . We still want to garage sale and goto flea markets just want a more stable source of inventory . Thanks
I can't remember but is ther especially ebay rule about having to have higher prices shoes authentic ticated before selling them on ebay? I picked up a odd pair of nikes at yard sale and they sell for around 130-$150..are they OK to list or need to be authenticated. They are new in original box
I will never say you can't make any money from Flea Market items but 95% of the people selling there are Resellers and are in it for the quick buck, cash, not having to store items for long periods of time. Countless videos I've watched and the prices are 90% Ebay prices. I've watched other UA-camr's videos who source at the Flea Market and even comment at times that they're paying for certain shoes what I have mine listed for, the same exact shoes. I'm only 3 years into Reselling and I've been to numerous Flea Markets but not anymore because the prices aren't worth picking up. Sure you'll find a booth or seller who will give you a deal but 9 times out of 10 that pair of Jordan's you want are on Ebay for $60-80 and at the Flea Market they want $40-50.
Literally sourced 13 pairs of shoes in this video from a flea market lol and we’ll at a minimum double our money. Just because you’ve been to a flea market and not had success doesn’t mean it’s the same for everyone. We’ve literally made 10s of thousands of dollars flipping stuff from flea markets. Don’t let this comment ^ discourage you folks! Go out and hustle :)
@RALLI ROOTS Definitely not meant to discourage anyone I just don't want the average reseller (especially a new one) to go to their local Flea Market and expect this type of stuff or really cheap prices, then they will be discouraged. You were my first Reselling UA-cam videos I watched many years ago before I even went full-time and after quitting my 16 year career and going all in on Reselling I do have a different mindset than I used to before and in my early years. Don't get me wrong I'll pay $50 for something if it's going for $100+ especially back when there were no fees on shoes over $100. Again not taking a shot at you or the video because I enjoy them I just don't want some noob to get "discouraged" when they gotta pay up for something or when the asking prices are Ebay prices.
Totally agree for new sellers, depending on the sell through rate. People have different models too. Ours is a volume and turnover business. I’d rather have 30% of $2,000,000 than 80% of $100,000.
This video is SO timely! I was just telling my husband that I was going to start picking up more shoes, so long as I can find them in good condition. I’be been having some good boot sales lately and the ASP is just sooooooo nice that now I’m hooked lol.

I'm only 3 years into Reselling and I've been to numerous Flea Markets but not anymore because the prices aren't worth picking up. Sure you'll find a booth or seller who will give you a deal but 9 times out of 10 that pair of Jordan's you want are on Ebay for $60-80 and at the Flea Market they want $40-50.
Literally sourced 13 pairs of shoes in this video from a flea market lol and we’ll at a minimum double our money. Just because you’ve been to a flea market and not had success doesn’t mean it’s the same for everyone. We’ve literally made 10s of thousands of dollars flipping stuff from flea markets. Don’t let this comment ^ discourage you folks! Go out and hustle :)
@RALLI ROOTS Definitely not meant to discourage anyone I just don't want the average reseller (especially a new one) to go to their local Flea Market and expect this type of stuff or really cheap prices, then they will be discouraged. You were my first Reselling UA-cam videos I watched many years ago before I even went full-time and after quitting my 16 year career and going all in on Reselling I do have a different mindset than I used to before and in my early years. Don't get me wrong I'll pay $50 for something if it's going for $100+ especially back when there were no fees on shoes over $100. Again not taking a shot at you or the video because I enjoy them I just don't want some noob to get "discouraged" when they gotta pay up for something or when the asking prices are Ebay prices.
Totally agree for new sellers, depending on the sell through rate. People have different models too. Ours is a volume and turnover business. I’d rather have 30% of $2,000,000 than 80% of $100,000.
They are getting the shoes from the outlets/bins. Very aggressive/ greedy too, in my area.
From rag houses too
Guy really took the opportunity to get ten extra dollars when you misunderstood the deal hahaha
Lol, but I offered $100. We were both confused
Oh LOL. I so have digital cameras. Haha!!
ryan isnt lying....turnover is the name of the game
Damn, I thought that mask was gtoing to be a couple hundred bucks!!
