    God bless you brother, I'm about to graduate college and somewhat gave up on my resale business that I started a few years back. Watching this was motivating!

    invest in a thermal label printer, no ink needed and no need for cellotape, just use a polymailer

      @llamaa6 you can, but with the amount of orders i’m doing i would never want to go and bring 15 pair of shoes to the counter and have them have to package them all up!

    *New* *Sub* I tell you I've been reselling for almost 15 years now and I just turned 55 and now I'm enjoying the extra discount days being a Senior and also a Navy Vet. 😁

    I'm in the same boat as you buddy! Grade 10 student running a reselling business, the difference being I sell electronics and stuff like that. Thanks for the video, it was cool to see someone else's process to this. Comment section is also insightful, guess I better invest in a thermal printer.

    Aye bro PLEASE buy a thermal printer. I cut/taped labels for like 2 years and I didn't realize how much time/money it wasted. I got an opened box one for like $60. I've saved soooo much money already. Awesome channel btw, wish I did something like it at your age

    I personally sell trading cards online on platforms like whatnot and ebay, I see you using a regular ink printer for labels. Investing in a thermal printer will save you so much time and money. I live in central jersey, and congrats on attending university in the city. Can't wait to see your future success

      @AsaFletcher  27 днів тому

      Really just putting the money I earn right back into inventory. At the end of the month I do finances and see the profit I’ve made. I’ll take this money and make a deposit into a brokerage account so that it compounds with interest

      I would say it can depend on the photos and tags you use. I don’t sell any high end or things like Sp5der and stick to mostly Y2K stuff which 100% sells!

    also this is a dumb question but when someone buys more than 1 of your items do you ship them all in 1 bag or still ship them separately?

      All together and the buyer gets free shipping for purchasing a bundle

      Appreciate that. Yeah so honestly it comes down to the tags (based on year) and the fabric. Older vintage stuff sells really well, and then linens in terms of fabric will also sell pretty quickly.
