Bro' I feel you. I just spent my last 21 years at a manufacturing plant, and because the top managers badly screwed up with a customer, I was thrown under the bus so they could keep their jobs. 21 years of my life to that place, and in a blink of an eye, I'm off. even though I am struggling now, THAT was the best thing that could have ever happen to me!!
I just got laid off from a job i worked at almost 7 years. Pretty much sucks. I have been selling part time anyways so now i can focus full time. Why join a job again for them to just do the same thing and do things i dont even enjoy. Life should have enjoyment not 80% no enjoyment.
@@damienrutkoski792 that's what I was already doing. Corp structure sucks. They can just keep doing it over and over again. It's better to be in the business of yourself
It was a great pleasure to show you the ropes Sam, and introduce you to the book selling business. You got a great book with the Vincent Price cookbook, but check for a signature first! Already in the profit.
I’ve seen that guy before in someone else’s video. I don’t remember whose video it was though. It might have been Back from burnout, but I don’t remember.
@@SamGotFired Yes. Vintage jewelry, cars, MCM, etc. It's a whole niche. The magazines themselves might not be in good enough condition for collectors. Which also makes shipping trickier. Also, Media Mail is not allowed for anything that contains ads.
It wasn't my intention do "clickbait". In this video I was just sharing my experience and the beginning of me learning the book business. I did meetup with Max (a well known book seller) and I did find my first set of books to sell and even sold one from that same set all in this very short video. I am trying to better my videos as I go. Your comment does help me improve, thank you

Wow, 21 years? We are now unshackled, my friend. Wishing you the best
Yes i just say whats your price for the box ..simpler cheaper & most stuff is resellable in the box

Exactly
Come learn books @fizggig
@@maxruback7633 lol where do I learn
Why not join a job with a union, get a pension and health insurance AND sell on ebay. Best of both worlds.

Thanks Max! No signature on that one but it is in great shape
btw, I couldn't use most of the audio from the place we went because there was music in the background so I used some audio from the meeting over it
max, you have no youtube page? any resource recommendations?
@@joycruger8209 I don't think he has a UA-cam channel but his ebay page is Commongroundfinds
@@joycruger8209 Final touches on yt content very soon, anything I can help you with?
I got fired and started doing the same thing on a different platform and I'm at the gotta get more inventory stage and go broke to make profits
I just hit 900 items on ebay. What platform are you using?

Yes I recently saw an interview with him too
You're a part-time expert??
New sub here !!
Hi thank you and welcome!
Btw, I just checked out your channel. Great stuff, subbed
New sub here, Max sent me over.
Awesome, welcome
Wow, you have a whole lot of videos. I just subbed to yours too
@@SamGotFired thanks
The ads in those magazines might be worth more that the magazines themselves. :)
Right?

Huge click bait video. Showed one book he sold and then stood around the house gabbing about nothing to do with reselling or books.
