  • Let's go thrifting at Goodwill and look for things to sell on EBAY! When going to thrift stores in search of items to flip it's always important to buy the things that people are looking for and will resell quick. Reselling is all about picking the right items at the right price.
    Selling on Amazon FBA and Mercari are also options for me. In this video I do some retail arbitrage for big profits. You can also source items to sell locally using Facebook Marketplace and Craigslist. If you're selling a lot of clothing consider Poshmark or Etsy to get even more sales!

    //WHO AM I?
    I'm Wick and I am a reseller for a living. I find things at garage sales, thrift stores, and even clearance at retail stores to sell. I do online arbitrage, retail arbitrage, and buy locally. While the majority of my business is done through Amazon FBA, I also sell on eBay or anywhere else I can flip the junk that I find.
    I also trade stocks and futures, do affiliate marketing, and Merch by Amazon to make money online. My goal is to live a free life away from the typical 9-5 job.

    //FAQ
    Q: What Apps do you use to sell online (eBay and Amazon)?
    A: I search the eBay sold and completed listings to get an idea of what products are selling for. I use the Amazon Seller App to scan for FBA.
    Q: Can you make a living selling online?
    A: Yes, the difficulty is based on how much effort you put in and how much you need to make each month. I do this full time.
    Q: Where do you find your clearance products to resell?
    A: Literally everywhere. Check end caps and look for clearance aisles, but mostly it will be mixed in. Ask a manager if there's any good clearance deals and build a relationship if possible.
    Q: Do you make a full-time living selling online?
    A: I do. All my bills are covered, I'm able to save a good amount, and put money back into the business. I also do other things to make money, but reselling is the meat. It takes a lot of work and dedication to make a full-time living reselling.

      At the mega thrift store near me, in addition to the tag, they write the price on the item with a permanent marker. I try to remove the ink with alcohol, sometimes it works, other times it makes it worse.

    • @cadmanwatching
      @cadmanwatching 9 місяців тому

      I wet my index finger and place my finger on the tag to moisten it. After it sits for about five minutes I peel it off with my fingernail and clean it with water and a dish rag. Works almost every time.

    I'm thinking of selling some things I have acquired over the years. I don't know what all I need to do. Where do I check for comps. That's my biggest question. Any and all help will be greatly appreciated. Thanks. Have a great day.

    • @FlippingJunk

      The best way is to filter your eBay searches by sold and completed. This will show you what items have actually sold for. You can see how many have sold in the last 90 days and how many are currently listed. This can give you a good idea if something will sell, how long it will take to sell, and how much to list it for.
