Grab yourself something to drink, Let's get started!
A BIG THANK YOU!!!!! to all of you who continue to support my Channel and my Ebay store!!
I appreciate you guys! XOXOXOX
The hunt is real! I spend hours and hours each week, combing through thrift stores, estate sales, auctions & flea markets ... to bring home the goods and prepare them for selling in my Ebay store, and on Facebook Marketplace, which fully supports me.

I don't understand why people think if they find a single attractive dish/plate that it is not still useful or desirable if they cannot find a match. If you look at tablescapes, very often odd dishware is used on its own and looks beautiful. Not every salad plate or cereal bowl has to be used for its original purpose and in multiples. My favorite plates/bowls in my personal collection are loners.
From what I hear various kinds/Styles of dishware is eclectic method and is Hot Now and has been for awhile. My tableware is various, all representative to my favs.
You Re so organized Karen! I am always in awe when I see your basement. The Napco Christmas planter was my favorite of your finds today. So pretty and vintage looking.
Why not break down the boxes and stack them somewhere? Love watching your videos ❤
We just got rid of our Samsung refrigerator and celebrated. That refrigerator gave us so much grief over the years. 😫
Sorry you are having trouble with one of their dishwashers.
Was watching your video when I saw the wood cat and said to myself, "I want the cat." I paused your video, went on to your eBay store and saw you had it listed. I purchased it before someone else did. 😊
Thanks so much! I appreciate it 💜
That sounds like something I would do…LOL!
@@lavenderclothesline Vintage Dansk chunky full lead crystal ashtray, candy dish the one I found looks just like yours
I loved that cat! Great score! 😻
Congratulations!!!
You are so lucky that they honor the tag color of the week on hard goods where you are! Our local Goodwills only use the color tag of the week on clothing only! Not belts, not shoes, not linens., not hard goods..nothing! only clothing. So ticks me off! And yes, our prices are high too! (Western PA, North of Pittsburgh)
I bought a rolling wire rack, break my boxes flat and lay them in sizes (s m lg) on the shelves. Yes have to retape but have an amazing assortment at my finger tips
Excited when your videos pop up 😊
2x4 & plywood shelves could be made under the stairs (accessing from the side.) I'm considering changing from plastic totes to legal size bankers boxes so I have more uniform sizes and straight sides.
Not only that but easier to handle
Bankers boxes aren’t moisture proof
Another reason I don’t use cardboard boxes for storage is that roaches LOVE Cardboard!!!
@@debbieholt8261 I havent had any bug problems..but I no longer live in FL where it was always a possibility
I would want a new dishwasher. My sister bought Miele because their average for service calls was once every 23 years. Great dishwasher.
I lived down the road from Peterborough, NH. It is a lovely and very artistic New England town. I shopped and had lunch there many times with some dear girlfriends😀. I’m so glad the baskets sell well because the quality really is amazing. Great video, as always.
Animal Stairs? Could also be a riser retail display, so each tier would be visible. 😉
They are actually stairs for yours mall dogs to get on the bed, I have a set!! 4:30
I would totally buy that sand piper bird painting from you!!
I haven’t followed you in a little while. Congratulations on getting married….. so great to have someone you love do the same stuff that you love…
I miss scavenger life’s podcast so much! Love visiting their coffee shop, their coffee is sooooooo good!
Love your videos!
It's interesting that the Goodwills are not consistent with their policies. In the Nashville area one color is 50% off for the week. And then on Sunday that color becomes $0.99.
I have been told that each location operates on its own with their own policies aside. Our SCentral MI stores offer nothing but ever higher prices. I rarely go there anymore😢
@@treasuresnownthen I noticed while traveling to Florida that the prices were higher then in Tennessee.
yeah I have to focus on items taht sell over at least 50 ..my cog is high in my area , no room to store items or limited room anyways . Hopefully I can sell my house and once I do that I can go crazy
You could store some empty boxes on the shelf’s beside each tote
So Glad you came on.❤
Excellent!!! TY, Karen….
Enjoy your videos thanks
Quite a setup for your hauls,.., May I ask how long you keep something on Facebook? You are getting so old comment reminds me of something I read: "You know you're old when you have to put in your birth year and the dial spins like you're on Wheel Of Fortune."
Hello, LOVE your videos. You are a lovely, gracious lady with a razor sharp business model. Admire you and wish you continued success. Seems you married the perfect partner and good wishes to him also. ❤ from Canada.
Do you weigh your stuff before listing so you can accurately estimate postage?
Yes
Hi.....
Is that nail strips that you wear on your nails? How do you like them? I've been considering buying some. Thanks
Color Street! I really like them
I live in Luray VA
You're blond hair color is gorgeous. And your creamy complexion. Spot-on!
We have a Bosch dishwasher. Look at this brand . We love ours
Us too!
We bought our bosch dw used ten years ago. I love that thing! If it ever needs replacing another bosch it'll be.
Bought my Bosch dw 2007 and still working.
Many repair technicians are saying they are having a problem getting parts
Love my Bosch stove, bought used, it’s a beast!
Gotta love it when people recognize you and also find a GOOD Pig.... Loved it!!! Way to go Eileen!!!
I am so glad your channel popped up for me Karen. It’s a different market in the U.S. to here in Europe. However, it’s all a about learning as a reseller. I love your videos and hints, tips and everyday chat. I am catching up on all of your videos 😊
Thanks so much!! 💜
But when you find things in your city - they really are OLD. My son brought me a lot of things from Japan when he was an exchange student. 700 year old items were nothing there. Here they don't even exist.
It just breaks my heart to hear that you are having some problems with your dishwasher after you were so pleased to finally own one. Nothing mor aggravating than having a problem with an item and then having to fight to get restitution 😢
Karen when any electrical items have a problem when you first get them please always ask for a replacement because 9 times out of 10 you will have a problem down the line. Just my experience. Loved the dolphin print. Great finds as always. Hope you're both well.
Boxes! Boxes! Love your content!!! What about leaving one box of a common size as a “place holder” and placing matching broken down boxes within?
What a great idea!
That is what I try to do
Love the print! Would love to hear an update on it if you find out more about it…😃
I saw on Instagram that Karen was looking for help finding the name of the artist
Hello Karen. I replaced a Samsung dishwasher with a Bosch dishwasher. The best thing I ever did. I love it.
Karen your videos are such an inspiration. I've always wanted to sell on E Bay. You make it look so easy, but I know it is'nt. Thank you!
She is so organized!... and you have to have patience ...
@@kimkirksey562 Amazingly organized. Impressive.
It is a lot of work! I started selling about 9 months ago! I just now got a subscription and I am struggling with it!
Black Plastic Shelves in Roger’s Area: I’ve used that style shelf before and have always found them to be inferior. They don’t adjust and sag under a weight load. I’ve always replaced them as soon as possible, with either built in wooden shelves or Metro style wire racks that have a height adjustment feature. Not all of my Metros are on wheels, but both wheeled and fixed are very useful. 😉😉
I can’t believe how neat your inventory is stored. No other ebayer has such dedication and professionalism. I don’t know how you do it by yourself. If I could take over someone’s business it would be yours.
Hi Karen, great finds. It must be enjoyable to shop with your new husband❤. Greetings from Cape Town South Africa 🇿🇦.
The nice clear glass with swirl design is Dansk MCM ashtray goes for $20-$25.😊
I laughed out loud when you explained the ‘ink blot map’. Cheered me up this morning. Love your videos.
Samsung and LG....nada
Vintage Napco Christmas shopper planter is always a yes!🤸♀️🎄
Karen, you probably already know but I think your glass item is a Dansk cigar/ashtray. They're really pretty but they don't sell for much. Have a good week! 😊
May i suggest getting a much better dishwasher like Bosch. I had an LG when we redid the kitchen- was the only appliance that gave us the same problem non-stop. For a lil bit more $, we finally got better quality (and the LG wasn’t cheap either) I swear dishwashers are the biggest problem pain in the butt appliances ever.
You are such a joy to watch so calm and organized.
Bosch dishwashers are the best!
Everyone is saying parts are hard to get ( back ordered)
i hate Samsung. Service people don't know what they r doing. And u get some body from India that u cant understand and they cant comprehend what u r telling them. Big time wasters and soooo stressfull.
I have that same NAPCO shopper girl in my shop...and I paid much more than that for mine!!! SCORE!!
Please also show the work that goes beyond the fun of sourcing and gathering the sell items. That will help people to understand the loads of work goes in between shopping and picking what sold before they’ll rush out to spend all of their money. They get their inspiration from you to shop, but also they’ll need inspection from you to do the work and all of the work that goes beyond the whole concept of reselling. ❤
This would be extremely helpful. ❤️
She does. She shows pulling shipping and tells about packaging the clothing and organizing the hard goods. She just said in this video that she works 7 days a week.
She's shown both sides for a long time!
I’ve shown all the aspects involved in past videos 😊
Karen has shown us the full spectrum of running a resale business for a long time. She shows us every video how much work goes into her business. I don’t know how she does it all personally.😊
Samsung will do you wrong. Make them take it back
Coffee Mug Tree that unscrews is certainly easier to pack and ship! 😉
One of the biggest mistakes I made was getting a new dishwasher. It doesn't come close to being as good as my old one that just operated with manual dials. 🥴
Karen I used to say Peter borrow,as in Peter rabbit ha 🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧❤️❤️❤️
I believe that the legality of selling used mattresses is a State by State law and also depends whether it is an individual selling or a company. At least that’s what I found online one time when I was curious about the same question. I also know that some charities will accept used mattresses. I too feel a bit ooky about selling/buying a used mattress, but if I think about being in dire need of one then my feelings may be different, ya’ know? Just things that make me go “hmmmm”.
So organized and neat with all the inventory, that is something I know I wouldn't be able to do, it takes years of practice and patience. Yes to that pig, it's cute, we love a good pig!
We bought a whole kitchen full of Samsung appliances and have had trouble with the fridge and stove so far…never again! Thanks for your videos, your sense of humour cracks me up!
I would definitely buy the Japanese lusterware. Its worth alot when in great shape. Also EAPG has groups of collectors that would love to buy so many pieces yiu pass on. Its sharply cut and well made. I hope one day you'll learn more about it because I groan each time you pass on it. I love your videos, you are so calming to watch. Take good care, Im a huge fan of you and Roger and I look forward to your videos. Thank you so much for sharing all of your knowledge.❤
I also was hoping she would pick up this Luster set as well. This design is hard to fine. They have several other designs, but this one here is a hard one to find and I think it would go for pretty good money, and it was in very good condition. ❤️
Samsung has had Huge problems with there appliances. Make them replace the dishwasher if they "can't fix it" also it should be under warranty. Hope you get it fixed quickly.
Long time watcher, Karen, but first time commenting. I was looking at your metal, roller shelving. I bought two at Goodwill yesterday. They were $140 each Six foot, four or five shelves. Not a GREAT BUY, but much better than I've found on line and first time I've seen them in thrift store. I think the cost of storage would be one of your biggest upfront costs. The bins aren't cheap either. Love your videos.❤
Your too busy and full of life to bother with growing old You’re excellent at being young!
Love your organization system!
H Karen - Oh the dishwasher install...pointing fingers...no...need a whole new dishwasher along with a guaranteed tested install. "Baby you ain't leaving this house until you PROVE to me there are no leaks!" What I told my plumber when they installed my dishwasher (well in a more biz like way of course) LOL. And when he was done he showed me, all the connections and started it, etc. I have a drawer dishwasher, its smaller than a regular one and I love it, well love is a strong word but I've had it about 10 years and we are good. No leaks..I have all new beautiful cabinets (then and new hardwood flooring so I definitely didn't need any leaks). I even had another plumber come over to check the 1st plumbers work - well he was there on a shower faucet leak so I said hey can you please look at this? New Dishwasher & new garbage disposal install? Sure he says...and said it looked great. See I was paranoid. Now if I could have only listened to my kitchen designer when she suggested I wouldn't want a trash compactor. I thought I would. I had no idea how expensive and hard to find good bags was. And how useless the compactor was. Nope. I never use it. Wasted space. Good luck with the dishwasher! Oh loved the piper parade, piper party print you were looking at. I like her work so did some more investigation. Looks like a print would be around $37, and with frame would be $276 on prints.com. Or the real glycee on canvas un-stretched signed with certificate of authenticity sells for about $175 (no frame). One of my favorites of hers is Tanquil Shores and Quiet Inlet. I would love to get those two and put somewhere in a room, one each side. So so pretty. Ok well I'll get back to your vid. LOL.
Hi Karen! Love your channel. I'm so jealous of all the Goodwill storess you have near you. The closest to me is an hour away! Anyway, I have started picking up a few hard goods because of you and found a Longaberger basket today! Also, did I hear that Roger lists a couple hundred items per week?! I must be super slow! Haha How many do you list per week? Thanks for sharing with us! Have a great day.
Karen and Roger, I'm so happy to be a part your lives, yes you both have a family based unit thru utube. I'm so happy for the both of you, and to find your partner doing what you both Love doing and you both have the same gift, and Talent. Not everyone can resale, it takes a special something, to be successful in it, especially to make a good living with it. Best wishes always. Much love from Alabama
I love they are not tripping over each other with their business.. they are still so individual...and together as well...I love it...
You are so organized!
I collapse/flatten all of my boxes and store them vertically by size on a wire shelving unit. Boxes that are too long to go on the shelf lay flat on the very top rack. I just keep a few of those since I too am limiting the number of large items I'm shipping. I sell a good number of hard goods but work out of a very small basement space so this has been a huge space saver for me.
Boxes- I take my boxes apart and file them in a role with metal vertical dividers llllllllllll. Works great!
😂 he's Like giive it back I am comping
That pig tray is epic!
Not with what Goodwill is charging now and it’s still going up every day.
I’m a child psychologist and I played CREATures in a session today!!!
The clay girl was $3.99 it's a Lee Bortin and I saw one selling on eBay for $35.
May I ask why the name of the channel I love watching from my home in Switzerland
u need to buy that lusterware set!!!
I agree! loved it. Beautiful colors! I'm not to the end of the video yet, so hope to see that she went back for it.
The clear glass soapdish item may be a pipe ashtray.
🤗You are such a breath of freshness, love, caring and humor❗ You are not old... you look and act young cause you are young 👍sweet lady . I am old and going blind, but I can focus in on the 👏great items you show on my computer. Then you say what you think and I am with you and laughing my tiny and wrinkled butt off. Oops..TMI
Thank you for being here and giving me the escape I need👵❤ I have much respect for both of you👵❤
What is his name on ebay and what time do the actions start? What is U-Tube market place?
We do love a good pig!
Scavenger life quit doing podcasts like 3 years ago
I love peterboro baskets
You are absolutely GREAT! Thank you!
@Lavender Clothesline I chuckled when you said you've been in Goodwill 1000's of times, hence I've been in only ONE (1) Goodwill ever in my whole life & I'm 57yrs old. 😮. I am completely envious of you but the closest Goodwill to me is probably 300 miles round trip. Anyhoo, I love your videos, I'm learning a lot and made my 1st eBay sale last week 🎉 ! Thank you for sharing all that you do❤
Stations of the Cross, rather then Stages. 😉
I believe there were some Denby coffee cups, 4 of them, at the 31 minute mark. They look like Potters Wheel Parchment pattern. I have the complete set, mine are over 40 years old. They are made in England. Too bad you didn’t pick them up.
I love Denby! ❤
Thanks for sharing your dishwasher issues. I’m currently shopping for one. Someone who works for an appliance company told me not to buy Samsung or LG products.
Break the boxes and stack them according to size.
I love pre-packing stuff I list (like you did with the puffy quilt and Roger does with his merch). The only issue I've come across is when people bundle items and I have to repackage different things. Love the sandpiper picture!
Someone might have said this but I didn't see it. You can flatten the bxs
Too much work to break down and rebuild hundreds of boxes 💜
Karen ... hello and congrats on your recent marriage! quick question: curious as to why you prepackage all the clothing items prior to their sale? i only do that at time of sale ... seems like a big time commitment and wondered about your thought process? thx Love your channel!
Keeps them clean and dust free
How do you ship belts? Do you put them in a poly mailer, padded poly mailer or in a box? Just wondering if they would get damaged in a poly mailer. Thank you
Wrapped in bubble wrap then packing paper, into poly mailer
spode christmas it always has a santa on the top of the tree
Puffy quilt shipping: do you wrap the quilt in one or two thick black bags and then tape it? And then it’s ready for shipping?
I find pulling rather boring.
I have to say I love the fast pace of Rogers method. You don't have to look at your inventory forever, it gets boring. I imagine that after a time, you get a following of folks who like auctions so you can make more income...
What is the intro? "Welcome Into The Channel" ???
Eileen looked out for you with that fun pig platter
I have the same dishwasher. No issues at all and I love the third shelf 😊. Hopefully it’s an easy fix.
What’s your average turn time 30days -365 days just wondering when I need to dump thing’s great video
I sell about 3000 listings a year
