    Caught this one super early so wanted to comment. Thank you for always being a realistic, level headed, valuable source of useful knowledge without the YT clickbait theatrics and showboating. You show the real life bread and butter stuff unlike other channels that make it seem like $200 vintage tees are just growing on trees and you can be an overnight millionaire, etc.
    Your videos and the Manifesto have been a game changer for me. So thank you! Hope you're doing well, take care!

      I second what this guy said. I'm really tired of eBay youtubers. Too many of them with the same garbage. You excluded. Started testing men's clothing bec of your vids. Only high-end stuff, sport coats, and new with tags though. amazon youtubers i will not watch. reselling is a grind like any other way to make money.

    with the dixxon shirt being a collaboration with snap on that probably would have flew

    Thank you, nice to see you. Would you consider doing a brief cheat sheet about how to identify fish lol. It’s one of those things that takes me too many minutes to do and it would be nice to have, you do it for me lol. Maybe it could be an appendix to your next manifesto. Thanks for considering!

    Bummer on the hard drive. Love that store footage. Maybe subscribers can send footage of them going through racks and you can comment on it? It would provide some views of different parts of the world.

    Wow your videos are great. I’ve been looking for videos just like these and UA-cam randomly suggested one of yours and I think I’m hooked! So much good info and no silly nonsense like a lot of others reseller content. 👍 really appreciate all your hard work and teaching!

    Not a clothing reseller, but I’d assume the orange University of Texas Longhorn polo would have good sell-thru - they have a strong fan base and football season is upon us.

    I’m not sure if you have made a video like this but I thought I would ask for a video about how to create and post better pictures for the eBay listing and how you break down everything going into your eBay listings, if you have already done that I would love a link! I also wanted to say how helpful you have been and I’ve only been doing this for a couple of months but your channel has helped me in more ways I can count, so thank you!

    I find many successful high sell through item in Superdry. One I have full confidence in. Basic shirts and polos aren't great but shorts, pants jackets tend to have high sell thru. Superdry cargo pants for example have around 200% sell through

    That Dixxon also being Snap-On Tools and a VW Bus is the trifecta. I would be it is $75-100 shirt.

    The Dixon print is a tool company probably some of the most expensive tools in the world. Snap on stuff should be a bolo especially in tools

    Are you sure you can't pull that hard drive and at least put it in a reader to extract your files? I've had to do that before and it saved my music demos which would have been lost forever. Anyway, ditto to what chrostpher townsend said... I'm about at the point where I won't even bother with a YT'er with the goofy thumbnail images and childish click bait captions. I mean, I guess it probably works for their views and traffic and who am I to tell them not to do what works for them but it is sooooo tiresome and insulting.
    So glad I got the manifesto and donated for it as well. I feel I'm on a whole new trajectory now, thanks again.

    The polo looks like a project rock polo from under armour. The rock did a collab with them. Might have actually been worth it if it is.

    I actually dropped some deolax in the bolo section of the discord haha. Never heard of it before but found it at the thrift a week ago.

    I did well with Superdry jackets, but you will have to sit on them for a while. Anything else, definitely skip.

    Ugh- losing your hard drive- so bad! I hate when that happens- best of luck figuring out another game plan- maybe have watchers send you videos of what they are seeing in their stores and you can critic if they picked up a$$ or Bolo. Either way, I know you will figure something out :)

    I’ve found 5 Dixxon button down shirts in one go and they flipped easily within a few days. And they weren’t even flannels

    Would you ever consider doing a review of my eBay store for a video, or privately to be paid through Venmo, or whatever other source you'd like? I'm the typical... "I think I'm doing everything correctly" person, but my sales have plummeted in the last year since I started focusing on clothing.

    • @ThriftALife
      @ThriftALife  Рік тому

      Yeah I may do another store review vid soon. If you join the Discord I will probably put the call out there first. It would be free.

    omg did you have to buy the new hard drive in oaxaca? i'd imagine that would be spendy? kinda curious. maybe you were able to get one online and shipped? buying good quality electronics in mexico can be a bear.
    btw have you seen the value of the japanese yen lately? dude. i know you want to go to the cheaper countries but i've never seen the dollar go so far in japan in my entire adult lifetime of travel, and i've been there several times when I thought 120 yen to the dollar was a fricking miracle on one year I went there, and now it's creeping up right to 150. you may never have a chance like this again... i'm not even joking; it hasn't been like this since the japanese bubble burst in the early 90s. if i was able to currently i would drop everything i was doing myself and go there, book an apartment or series of them for a couple months because i've never seen anything like this insanely weak yen.
    thrifting vids from japan would also totally blow up your channel

      I was completely unaware. Now I'm thinking about it. Thanks for the heads up. Hard drive was double the price here but oh well.
