      I hate when people expect someone that’s having their own garage sale to conform to their expectations of how much something should sell for. Don’t like it? Don’t buy it

      Yep, tell me ebay prices and I'll tell you to list it on ebay. And then ship it, buy packing items, pay fee's and taxes. Or do you want my damn cash and we both make it out ok.

    A MASSIVE pet peeve of mine is zero prices at a garage sale. Then you have to ask the price for each thing you're interested in. 🤷‍♀️🤦‍♀️🤬 One of the main reasons why I started frequenting Estate Sales, cut and dry, price on everything.

      See I always want to price my yard sale items and family argues I’m wasting my time I’m like no I’m not resellers and ppl like to see prices on items -for they don’t like asking. I have so much stuff. 2- 27 ft truckloads in my moms plane hanger on her farm that we call the front Bldg and then I have a 10x20 unit waisting $$ paying on it. I’m just going to put stuff in boxes and mark the boxes with prices. Just way too much stuff to price unless we are talking about my Amazing coke cola clock my step dad gave me amongst some other valuables that will need prices. Mom and I seriously thinking of cleaning it up setting up shelves and “Just calling it “Where Pack Rats Like to Shop”’ 🤣🤣😂💪♥️🇺🇸🙏🐞🐞🐞

      Actually, the winking cookie jar is a vintage piece made by Shawnee back in the 40’s. I have it and the matching S & P , all of which were my great grandmothers. I cringed when you left it behind. They sell anywhere from $65 to $100+. Anthropologie may have did a repop, but I believe that one is vintage.

    Awesome video. That typewriter sells I think anywheres from $40 - $110+, of course it depends on condition, tho I did see one that sold on eBay for $190. I have sold a few, sort of a pain to ship but can be worth the time and effort at the right price. Watching one like the one in your video right now on an online auction, in very nice condition. The letters key caps I think sell decent also.
    You inspired me to take the next step, so I am going to sign up for reseller genie, just can’t decide on the basic plan or the next one.

      @@CommonwealthPicker yeah no shit when you're offering 50 cent and reselling something for $20 or more. its cheaper because you're screwing people and at goodwill or a thrift store you cant haggle the price is the price. i like your channel but this kind of video is what puts a stain on all (flippers junkers resellers etc)

      You Nate are missing the whole point of selling at a yard/garage sale. Sales is all about asking. Even if it is marked there is nothing wrong with asking about a lower price. Sellers can always say no or come back with an offer. If they do not like to haggle they should not be doing a yard sale. And eBay prices are only for online selling, not in yards. Kevin is not being rude. He just asks,. That is what a true yard sale is all about. If folks want more for their items they should just sell it online. No one is going to give you online pricing in a yard. Yard sales are supposed to be all about cheap prices. Kevin is smart and knows his prices to resell.
