I worked at Goodwill for almost a year...they are a total ripoff and in no way can be considered a charity. Goodwill is morally bankrupt, that's why I left. Please do not shop there-better to shop your local yard sales, flea markets and rummage sales. Plus, anything you see at the store are the cast-offs, all the good stuff, including books, etc., goes to their online stores/auctions. They should be ashamed off the prices they char
I want to live somewhere where there is a goodwill that is this organized, clean, and has this many dvds with discs still inside.
Take a drive
Only in California or New york Baby!
Facts
@@Thepoetjewellol ... let's trip over the massive invasions there.
I live by a thrift store that has a lot of boxsets and lots of blurays. It's near a High priced part of town.
This looks like a goodwill from a alternate reality!
Lol😂
I thought so too. It is set up almost exactly the same as a Veterans thrift store in Albuquerque. Not any Goodwill I've ever seen.
What I've been hearing is they are just a business now, selling donations and higher ups making 6 figure incomes.They have tax free non profit status like Churches, they were originally supposed to be there to help low income needy people, but they make a ton of money and don't have to buy any of their merchandise.
Not sure if you're aware, but when looking for mugs, look for ones with Las Vegas Hotel names on them, especially from defunct hotels. You can flip a $1-2 mug for about $15-20.
Thanks for the tip! Ill keep an eye out
I have been selling on Ebay since 2005, and with the exception of 1 dvd, I have never had good luck making profits off of movie sales.
Exactly. The thing about Ebay is you can't see how long the listing has been posted. Just because people put a certain price doesn't mean it'll sell. It's just luck that someone actually pays for it. I've known of people who'll list stuff for a high price just to see if someone will actually buy it but they truly have no intention of selling it unless someone is willing to pay that price. Someone I know had a sealed dvd for $300+ listed for 2 years until they pulled it down.
Because you probably are a normie
Probably because you are listing junk. I flip dvds every day for great profit.
@@4KDRAY You have to know what you're doing. Check sold prices (not listed prices) and sell through rate. Know what's worth picking up and not worth picking up; consider shipping costs, time of the year (for certain products) etc. I spent almost 6 months just binging stuff on YT to find out what's generally being sought after and then started selling Ebay and marketplace myself and made over $3k in profit in one year as a side hustle.
There are a couple of sellers on ebay who are totally inflating prices on dvds, blurays, cds, etc. That's why some of the prices are so high. When I see a cd priced at 42.97 that I sell everyday for 4 or 5 dollars, it makes me wonder if they are in some money laundering business.
I noticed that at my GW. DVD for 9.99 when it should be one dollar or I can buy online for 5. Bragging is driving up prices.
Yes, it's either that A) Ebay sets up hundreds of fake accounts to artificially raise prices, or B) it's money laundering.
$ laundering via ebay definitely is a thing.
Some guys will even have someone they know buy somethings of theirs at a high price to make people think its highly sought after.
@@bricknmotorIt's in every category on Ebay, so there's definitely some shady business going on. Ebay should be heavily investigated, not only for money laundering and fraud, but also allowing 100's of thousands of counterfeit items..
For vintage plush, try putting it in the dryer with two damp towels, that should spruce it up
Yer house gots the bed bugs
John Wayne was so popular they made tons of it. Thats why most of them dont go for much. Supply & demand
Shocked you found Dogma at Goodwill of all places. I sold a DVD one for $29 couple years ago found at swap meet @ $2
About 5 years ago i found some BEEEAUTIFUL KLM 900b bookshelf speakers in a local good will, i paid $40 for the pair a these speaker ROCK !!!!
So glad you grabbed the snowsk8 !! Must have for every home in Lake Tahoe!!👌
DVDs are my favorite section! It’s cool to see that there are still DVDs that are worth a lot out there.
The GoodWill you go to is nicer looking than some of the stores where I live. Lol. I live in the city so they would NEVER leave the discs in the actual cases either. 😂 I am still inspired to go thrifting now to see what I can find!
It's fun!
I live in the cowboy state and the city I live has one goodwill and hardly anything changes. The same stuff sits for years and never sells.
Sometimes, ill find some really cool stuff, but that happens maybe once or twice a year.
I was at a high-end kitchen store in Seattle a few months ago. They have the cutest octopus cake tin and those were flying out the door at $85! Mind you it's very nice tons of detail . But it blew my mind.
If you don't mind saying, what is the name of the store?
Wow I was completely unaware of those Blu Ray prices. I'll be checking out the media section more often. Thanks for the tip!
Glad I could help! They are a little tough to find, but ive found them a few times over the years. They are out there!
@@ThriftSchool Sector 9 are a really legit San Diego based longboard brand that's been around since the early 90s. And although that is a smaller sized longboard, it was in really good condition, and it's really cheap for $12. Their completes around that size retail for about $150 brand new, give or take.
This is what makes the prices go up. Eventually goodwill will start asking $10 for DVD and they will be stuck with them all for years til they go to the dump.
DVDs at my goodwill are usually 1 dollar or 2.
Nice video! Your GW prices are amazing 🤩
Learning so much! Thanks for the BOLO BluRay pickups!
Youre welcome! I have so many more in my head, Hopefully I run across some more soon!
Great and informative. I Subscribed! Thank you!
you need to switch to eBays sold list then compare to the number listed to get an idea of the fall through rate when not sure.
Oh good you did later on!
Finding good stuff at goodwill is highly region specific. Where i live, finding good things is extremely rare 🙂
The area of town makes a difference.
Older areas could be a bust or good for vintage items (older people living there).
The more effluent areas would have cleanest and most valuable.
@@hulynchow8505 where I live, finding cool old stuff is non existent. Not even old PC games.
I'm really glad your
channel, was with my
recommendations.
When I’ve heard of the Goodwill referred to in American media, I assumed it was an American parlance for all charity shops. I didn’t realise there was an actual chain just called Goodwill. In the UK, many charities have their own chain of high street stores that resell donations. Although the stores are staffed with volunteers and they get tax breaks, they don’t make a profit. They’re more about promoting the existence of the charity itself.
At least your Goodwills still have media!! All the ones in my county stopped carrying books and movies. I was going monthly and grabbing any movies I wanted to own a physical copy of.
I always like the GW's near me.I recently picked up a Never Used Nu-Wave oven w/all the accessories and booklets...Blue favorite color $19.99...👍
I remember when one of the original Tarzan DVD was flipping for $80 daily. Found a few of them.
From Australia, first time seeing it as a a recommended video after watching Retro Gamer Girl, this is actually a good video that I watched. Good footage that looks live and virtual and makes me feel like I'm in the shop too
That is such a nice Goodwill. Loved this!
It's very clean, large and does brilliant old school pricing (what I mean by old school pricing is that the thrift store still does authentic bargain pricing)
Yeah, there are a lot of movies that sell for a lot more on Blu-ray than DVD. You sound like me when I'm going through DVDs. I'm amazed at how much I keep learning after years of reselling media.
Totally true. Been watching your channel for years dude. Loved all the insights back in the day
Yes going to have to save this video as it seems theirs no Amazon app that's going to help you shop faster!, i wouldn't know the value of any of these items just by looking at them, it years of experience looking at hundreds of Amazon products to know this, and thus we are here watching guy's like you teaching us!
Really enjoyed the content!
Ive never seen such a beautiful GW
Got a nice chuckle with that thumbnail pointing at a DVD of bedazzled .. "Hola Juan, hola Esteban, dónde esta esa biblioteca? esa es la casa de mi tía, no gracias, soy alérgico a los crustaceos." 😂 love that movie
Lol! I love that movie also. Seen it a handful of times.
I swear man people underestimate dvds and blu rays. Never ever ever underestimate movies. I know pain in the butt to go through but so many times ive made so much off dvds in fact back in 2019 thats how i got started selling part time. It was alll selling movies. Ive found so many movies that would shock most resellers. One thing to look out for are the screeners especially the screeners of streaming only show or movies those tend to be very valuable. It was last year i found a huge stack of them and i probably made about 500 off them they all sold quickly.
Good to know about cake pans!! I see them all the time.
The Wilton shape cake pans aren't worth picking up. You'll be lucky to get $5.00 for them. I used to decorate cakes & have some from the 70s. The only reason I would list them is to free up space.
@@j54lefty ok. Thanks
If you sell them on Amazon it can be great money. On ebay they are a slower item to sell. If you dont sell on Amazon, I'd recommend signing up
Krypton is Skateboard is like $35 at Walmart. Sector nine are pretty expensive. Good find
By the way, you said you never find anything good in the records, that means that you’ve stopped looking through them. I hardly ever go to Goodwill stores but when I do I always find a real jam that they overlooked like a super rare country western album or a really rare Latin jazz album. Recent album I got there for $2.99 each , which was expensive since most of the records were like common John Denver records etc.
So the jazz album I found was a rare edition but I got $225 for on eBay. By the way I’m not a greedy seller, when I sell a record like that it includes free shipping and the shipping is priority mail with full insurance not just the $50 insurance. I think her to many sellers are charging shipping fees when they shouldn’t. I saw a guy selling rare signed baseballs that were $500 each and he had the nerve to charge $12 shipping. What? He buys the baseball probably at a yard sale for $.50 out of a toy box, the least you could do is make a high profit but pay for the shipping. Never understand why some people think that that is the way to get rich. Maybe it’s the way to stay rich but it’s certainly not the way to get rich.
I agree with you 100 percent. I believe the exact same thing. Good comment.
Isopropyl (rubbing) alcohol will remove most adhesive residues, as well as many inks including sharpie, be careful on things like leather though. If you need something a little more powerful, acetone (nail polish remover) will also work wonders on inert surfaces, but be careful as it can dissolve more than you want including some plastics. Isopropyl is definitely safer.
The best thing i use for safely removing adhesive labels is Lighter Fluid, like you use to refill Zippo lighters.
Where I live your best bet are yard/garage sales or Flea/antique stores because the Goodwill prices of items have risen since 2020 for some reason. Like the normal DVDs used to be $1 and the Blu-rays $2, but are now anywhere from $3 for DVDs and $5 for Blu-rays at the Goodwill. Also, they marked up just about everything else as well. I still go because you can still get some bargins, but I have better luck at sales and flea markets.
For some reason, lol. It's because of resellers. They know exactly what they have. They aren't in the market for the poor. Their rent must be higher too. Goodwill sucks.
It's no fucking mystery why prices are high. It's because of asshats like this guy, posting/bragging about how much money he makes.
Their higher because they now hire someone to check the selling price on Ebay before putting it on the shelf.Not every item but the valuable looking shit…lol
People in SF are about to do this but in department stores, and not even pay. Just walk out vlogging, "I just got all this stuff for FREE ya'll. They can't touch me!"
lol. You ain’t lying
What is "vlogging?"
The wheels spinning on the boards could always just be due to being on too tight. . or old ball bearings. As a former skater, sometimes you gotta mess with that stuff.
That dragon soft toy look like the one I have ..wow 😮😂
I just saw free willy on blue ray at Walmart in the 5 dollar bin 😂😂😂😂
If its the 1st movie, thats gold! Odds are it was either the 2nd or 3rd
I've sold that Fievel a long time ago in great condition.
Thanks for the video
Sector 9 was one of the best "long" skate boards made!
Awesome! Should help it sell faster
Love your video. Thanks for the great info.
Thank you! Glad you liked it :)
I have stacks of dvd and blu rays. Had a stack of blu rays not even opened for a few years but just the otherday my wifi was down and opened some for something to watch.
Thank You
Thanks for sharing
Samsara is unreal. Saw in an 8k Theater in 2012, one of the most incredible film experiences I've had.
I should deff check it out. High praise!
Although I know it's probably hard to ship but we get like dining sets when elderly people move house so like a 50+ piece Mikasa set for $35 lol
The chicken plush is called heihei from Moana. I've sold before for £20, not sure if it still holds value but may be one for next time
good to know. Thanks!
Just FINALLY found Cocoon after 5 years of searching at the $1 thriftstore....and H.R.Puff N Stuff complete series..I own over 600 dvds/blu rays
I like the search
just happened across this video. I use to sell stuff once in awhile but I’m more of a collector bc I was fortunate to do well in corporate sales early on in life Ive acquired a huge indoor climate controlled storage unit and a basement filled with nothing but incredible vintage pieces I started out with clothing 20 yrs ago and shortly after added collectibles. I now have literally tons of rare pieces,nos,aop,single stitch,nos, one off extremely rare items,vintage clothing mostly 50’s through late 90’s Nike,Starter,Pendleton,Levis,Dior,YSL,concert tees,incredible vintage sports SnapBack and trucker hat collection vintage movie posters and all the promo material and press kits that were given only to theater owners,lots of vintage watches,jewelry,sports cards,autographs,memorabilia,military items,very rare aviaton items,art,some mid century furniture pictures,paintings,toys ie Star Wars,GI Joe 60’s w accessories,video game consoles and games NES,SNES,N64,Atari,Sega,big collection of 1st edition sci fi paperback books from the 50’s and 60’s,some cool signs,glassware,ephemera,industrial lights,literally anything that caught my eye that I thought was neat,rare, or valuable. There’s no filler it’s all extremely hard to find stuff that took decades to acquire. There’s a lot more stuff it’s just hard to mention everything. Im looking to move back out to Las Vegas (I came back to Alabama during the pandemic to help with a close family member that has now died) If someone can get to Alabama I may be willing to sell it all and cash out. It’s never been picked through or even seen by anyone for that matter. If someone can come this week or next I can send pics of different items. I’m going to the Orange Bowl Dec. 29th and probably the national championship Jan. 8th so if I am gonna sell it would have to be prior to then. Sorry for such a long comment.
If I lived closer, I would totally check that out. It sounds great! Sadly im all the way in CT. Good luck!
Drop dead gorgeous I saw there is worth good amount
Sector 9 skateboards are great boards. I would have def grabbed that one.
I could swear I saw this vid about a year ago or more. I remember thinking that GW is packed with scores.
I found a snow skate when I was picking through the dump when I was younger. I didnt know much about it but I knew it was worth money. I sold it for $75 locally only a couple days later, so I think even for $25 it could of been worth it to try to sell local!
Thats awesome! I can deff try locally
Dude sector 9 does great for resale
That snow skate is a find
Its super sick. Not the best time of year to sell it, but ill try
These are my favorite videos since I resell dvds..now getting the motivation to list and post is another thing..buying and scanning is the fun part.
Awesome! I hope you stuck around and watched the whole video. Lots of other great finds that weren't just DVDs :)
What app for you guys use to scan?
@@needlegunn Scoutly
You know what, that shit is crazy as hell. I've been a full time dumpster diver for over 30+ years, and sold pretty much everything in my local flea market. If I even tried to sell my movies and or collectables for even half of what y'all are asking, I'd be laughed at, joked on, and would probably end up going home broke as hell. I just don't see y'all getting some of the prices that y'all claim to be getting. Oh and just a little tip, I've been able sell my merch pretty much every weekend for over 30 years by not bragging and educating my competition about where I find it at, and or how much I paid for it. I mean I'm not trying to be a smart ass or anything. I mean if that's how make your hustle, more power to you.
@@stevenbryant9097I agree, can't sell sh..t where I live. I did just buy approximately 2,500 DVDs for $500. I guess I'm a millionaire !!! 😂
should have gotten the sector 9 board. i've heard stories of professionals using sector 9 boards. the reasoning being they are the only boards made of bamboo
Sector 9 skate is great...!
that burton snow skate is actually pretty rare imo, never heard of their snowskates before unless theyre new of this past year
And I totally feel ya on Starbucks' mugs, they seem to take forever to move!! What state are you in, your store is fully loaded with so much!!! In Seattle the reseller market is so super over-saturated if you don't go daily you'll never find anything!! Also, "Samsara" in 8K?!?! Such an incredibly visually amazing doc! One of the most beautiful films!! Def watch at least the 1st few minutes, at least see the factory footage!!🤯🤯🤯
Have an old Bangkok Starbucks mug I wish someone would buy. 😢
Like the Starbucks mugs for my own use. So if I see them I pick them up for myselff only.
My local goodwill prices everything so high. They even price the shoes individually which they arent suppose to do according to corporate.
I found out why everything is priced for almost retail price.
The district manager does a contest with all the stores. Whichever store makes more money in a yearly quarter, that store manager gets a bonus on their check. So now all the stores are over pricing everything in hopes to get that bonus. I dont think its a good plan tho bc i see the same stuff sitting on the shelf for weeks sometimes. Even if its broken they still try to sell it rather than pulling it off the self. It use to be fun to go goodwill hunting but not anymore.
Lmao believe what you want but the prices are high because of smucks like this they speak all tell all that’s why you don’t speak to people especially someone like him because he thinks telling everyone does something other then destroying the market
Hello 👋🏻 I am new to your channel 😊 was looking around and saw it. I enjoyed this video, it’s a little different than the ones I have watched. You are very good at showing clearly your finds and talking about them. I did subscribe and hit the notification bell so I should get your next video ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Awesome! Glad to have you :) I try to post as often as I can, I hope you enjoy all the vids!
I'm new to this channel too, as an Aussie this channel has to be similar with style but different with content to Team Retro's game hunt videos by Retro Gamer Girl.
so cool 👍
Your goodwill is nice, organized and clean... mine isn't and their prices are so high
That Samsara is Sooo dOpe!🔥🔥🔥
Samsara is amazing
I always find something at Goodwill's but it's gotten harder lately. Thanks for the info.
Lol... "GUCCIwill" (Thats a good one). Great useful information in video. Thank you!! =)
I just bought that cabbage patch kids game for $5 at a toy expo. Honestly thought it was a whack a mole type game lol which was the main reason I bought it.
sector 9 cruiser was a great find. sell for 150 brand new at zumiez lol
Sector 9 is decent. I live in a beach town and would get like $60-80 for that. Krytonics is an old brand bought out by Wal Mart and are low end.
Love the vids! I'm trying to sell blu-ray/DVDs on Amazon. How do I bypass submitting a purchase invoice for my movies?
Im going to look through my blu rays now
Good luck! Theres lots of hidden gems out there
Sector 9 was a top of the line in the late 90's
Why in the world would a Blu-ray of Free Willy be worth so much? Wtf 💀
They didnt make very many of them suprisingly. And it is out of print.
Supply and demand. Same reason anything in this world holds value.
@@BigDirtDawg who is demanding Free Willy? Are you high, bro? 😂😂
@@jmc_-im6sd Precisely.
Capitalism at its finest!
Tribeca and IFC as well
Great video and u got good content
Thanks man!
Oh wow. Ive got a slew of dvds!! Whole seasons of some. Cant part with my Godzilla collection ☺ The real original ones. Not lousy remakes. Geez i cant part w some. Idk. Had no idea thier wanted on ebay. Thanks for info. 😊👍
I wash stuffed animals in the washing machine ALL the time! Even use some Shout on dirty spots. Just let them air dry and they normally turn out great!
If I'm not mistaken it a BJJ Dummy. And you are right it's around that.
Krypotonics is a Toys r Us brand board...Sector 9 is an actual board. If you look at the ply structure you'll see the press is completely different. Kryptonics using a cheap wood press while Sector 9's will have presses that have the grains going opposite each other.
Awesome! Good to know. I dont know much about longboards, but always learning
Yep, sector 9 is a decent long board brand for sure
Dude sector 9 was worth $120
@@ThriftSchool keep us updated on it! I usually don't bother thrifting skateboards because I'd imagine the sellthrough rate is slower than other items. As a skater myself I always had to feel the board on my feet plus I had this sense of loyalty for supporting your local skate shop. Most skaters are just looking for a cheap board though so I'm sure someone will be stoked to get a sector 9 at a discount.
That first long board brand is decent.
I always look for factory sealed copies. Dont matter what it is, if it's new factory sealed, you will make a few
bucks off it.
I swear every thrift store I go into plays "Sombodys watching Me" from Ghostbusters! It must be on the thrift store loop lol! Great suggestions in the vid! I lived in the US now in the UK so it will be interesting to see what things go for over here as my husband has a VAST cd collection that takes up an insane amount of space! Would be nice to see if there is value in it! ( he would not part with it unless there were big bucks involved!) New sub here! x
afaik, Somebody's Watching Me by Rockwell was *not* in Ghostbusters. The theme song is Ghostbusters by Ray Parker, Jr.
What do you need the space for?
More stuff.
i was about to say, damn your goodwill looks exacty like the goodwill in my town inside and out, turns out im not the only one living in Torrington lol
Bolo for you. Jenny McCarthy Santa Baby. Sold instantly for 35$
Florida has many good Goodwill stores
Even if I find the Rick Moranis movie Little Giants at my Canadian thrift stores, I am lucky enough for that!
I aent at bought rhe Game of Thrones animated history right away, I've seen clips of it on UA-cam, it's AWESOME
Yes. My Starbucks items take a long time to sell. Thinking of not grabbing them anymore.
I've never moved a Starbucks mug. I have moved Corelle, Harley Davidson, and hand-crafted stuff.
Who knew the Bedazzled and Free Willy Blu Rays would be such an investment
Samsara great movie!
Love your videos can I ask what you use to search on Amazon on what things are worth?
Thanks
Thanks for the video have you been to the flea markets in your area I've seen other pickers score there..
I went to 2 of them actually. I didnt film at either cause I didnt buy much to resell
