    I have been watching you and other resellers for a good while now. I just wanted to say I appreciate that you have kept your channel primarily reselling. Other channels spend too much time promoting their stores, house remodeling/flipping, or whatever they are getting into. I like that you just go out looking for deals and show us what you find without all the extra nonsense.

      Thanks for that! I actually do want to add some more fun videos just because I have been doing so much of just the same old thrifting content for so long. It will probably always be the main video type on the channel but I do have some cool ideas that I want to try. Recording the same things for years puts a number on me lol!

      @douglas2539 Yes, goodwill has gone up a lot. About 3 years ago we had a tornado and fema came and brought a lot of nice stuff and had a lot left over, so they gave it to goodwill to keep handing it out if anyone needed anything later..Goodwill sold it all at really high prices..I still go there, but it really bothered me that they did that.

    Goodwill is generally overpriced stuff that has been picked thru (often by employees before placing it out on the floor). Many Goodwill's sell what they think will sell for higher online. They're basically the McThrift of thrift stores...one pretty much looks like the other. And sorry, $7.00 for a used, 15 year old shirt, or $5 for old t-shirts with stains or holes is a shameless money grab.

    • @jaidentslgl2753
      @jaidentslgl2753 Рік тому +2

      The better items I’m Goodwill end up in the glass cabinet at extortionate prices. The thrifting experience will be ruined just like in Australia when I go to Brotherhood of St Laurence as they pick through their clothing and put the best clothing on the “Something Special” section and sell them at eBay prices or sometimes either slightly lower or definitely higher.

      Same here in Spokane. This city has a large brick building where they specifically pull all the good stuff and sell online, leaving almost either almost all junk for the floor or bulky items they didn't want to ship. And, this dude's goodwill has 10x the amount of games and toys as the local goodwill. Maybe literally 5x, but looks more like 10x.

      Amazon is more inflated but after service fees are a pain. eBay doesn’t sell for as much but sells for more than local sale but is cheap with shipping and shouldn’t take too much for commission.
      If you’re an Amazon prime seller, Amazon might be worth it. If you’re doing a lot, definitely do eBay because it would sell all at once.

I rarely if ever find rap, new wave, punk or much of anything worth listening to or reselling. I'm not sure if they place CD's on the floor with explicit lyric tags on the cover. CD's ($1) & DVD's($1-2) however are some of the few things in Goodwill that aren't overpriced.

      I got most of them. I only left a couple behind. Luckily, someone reached out to me on Instagram and wants to buy them all, so they are as good as sold.

    Monopoly Box damage is totally overdrawn by posting a picture that the parts are still sealed. Everybody wants something old that’s new.
