11:45 when you were looking at ps2 there was a car radio under them worth over $100. I sell car radios all the time. I guarantee the, to work or customers money back (since I can’t test it) I RARELY get any returns on them! Big money in those radios.
I swear thift stores has raised the prices too much !!!! It's ridiculous how high they have become in the last year !!!! Really trying to sell something for 100 bucks that has none of the stuff with it 🤔
@@intuitivelymagician2076 that’s what I stick with and my small stores make me crazy deals because I actually communicate with them and donate a ton to them.
I mean they probably are increasing the prices because so many people go to thrift stores to resell now. Which sucks for people who are just poor and are trying to find a good deal for personal use.
On Sony hifi gear.. always look at the end of the name.. if it ends with ES it is usually some high end gear.. ES meaning elevated standard or something of that sort. Audiophiles can pay top dollar for that stuff.
8:20 : OMG Mouse Trap, how i always wanted that as a kid, never got around that buying it. the commercials bring back so much nostalgia , makes me want to go thrift hunting for the thrill and excitment
Hello ThriftSchool, really fierce what things you find there. I do the same in Germany. I do not have such finds here, unfortunately! At least not so often :-) I would like to give you a tip along the way: Always look at the speakers. Good speakers are often for 5-10 $ and you get on Ebay 60-150 $. Good luck furthermore!
Do you find there's a certain section that is usually the best to focus on? Like, if you had limited time, would you focus in more on books/media or games or something else?
I’ve noticed Goodwills in large cities have caught on to resellers and either price things like consoles very high and have them at the counter, or put them on their website for auction. Don’t know where this guy lives but I haven’t seen this in smaller cities
I remember the Bop It when it first came out. Tested one at Target. Thought it was one of the dumbest things invented. So shocked that it's actually worth anything.
My best finds we’re all last week when I went to Trenton and PA. Every single store I went was a hit from hyped up film cameras to even a mirrorless camera. Then I ended up in South Jersey and I found a brand new sealed Chromecast with Google TV. I wanted to extend my luck at the Red, White, and Blue thrift in Berlin township but I was tired and wanted to go home.
Those Chia heads are still good as a collectible and being its in the box makes it more valuable. People who are looking for those would just buy new chia seeds. just a heads up in case you come across another boxed chia item.
The fat PS2 doesn't have screws where you were looking. To see if they've been opened you just have to look to see if the tape near the power is cut. I also would have...and actually did leave that ps2 behind though for that price with the controller as rough as it was.
Another you tube page American thrift buyer said not to buy 2nd hand coffee machine as they can have beetles inside and get into your house which you will need to get someone to clean your house which could cost you up to $600
Look out for the different monopolies with the different cities and different countries, different themes sell well, scrabble letters as crafters use the letters to make personalised gifts pictures with the letters, especially occasions weddings etc especially the older letters Google to see what they do with the things. In England we have a bear called " Paddington bear with clothes, Wellington boots, hat ,coat and luggage label as they are going to be bringing out a new film this year. It's about a bear from Peru and came to London England & lived with a family & he ate " marmalade sandwiches " & kept under his hat,
thrift stores have raised their prices because of people like us. Why price it lower and let you resell it? I do the same thing you do, but it's becoming harder to do. Same thing happened with sports cards. I actually collect but because of all of the flippers, the retailers doubled the prices of all of the boxes. only issue with that is the actual singles don't sell for anything.
you are 100 percent right thats exactly why thrift stores and goodwill prices are higher when you got everyone and there grandmas doing the reselling thing now, its like everything else everyone starts jumping on it and doing it then it becomes no good anymore, for example my brother use to go to the goodwill outlet about 3 years ago and he would find vintage shirts all the time to sell but he stopped doing it cause now when you go to the outlet there is already a line of people standing waiting outside for them to open and when he went 3 years ago it wasnt like that when he used to go there were only a few people in there. just watch soon the reselling thing wont even be worth doing anymore.
I picked up 4 of those same boxes of cards at my GW a week ago for $6 in a bag.....so far no Jordan's to be found. I did find a few of Steph Curry's dad Del.
Good move to pass on the basketball cards. Outside of the Jordan and David Robinson cards you’re going to struggle to even get 50 cents out of any cards; most are less than a penny each typically. Those are the type of cards that I move in 5000 count boxes for $25-30 total.
It’s so funny seeing how Pendletons are priced in other states. In Oregon it’s like THE brand employees in thrift stores know about and price them high. Also Tyndale FR is a decent brand but when it comes to FR, Ariat is one of the best. For Tyndale, I’d stick to picking up hoodies only, those bring in the big bucks. Unless you can pick up their pants or shirts for $1-2, I’d pass on them!
you can also mail your systems to dk oldies for quick bucks for the old gaming system. found a shit ton on market place in my area for $25, getting $33 for the ps2, not to bad.
You interested in buying out an eBay, amazon store? Selling tons of movies games toys and more. Don’t want to sell online anymore and have a ton of stuff
Here is a prime example of stick to what you know! The sports cards and your comment of, if you listed every card maybe you could make a couple hundred dollars. That statement is not even close to being accurate. Buying the box at $20 is already a loss. If you do not understand the product and the MARKET leave it alone. I personally learned this lesson years ago with comics. When there is a buzz about a product you always think you just found a gold mine.
Smart choice to not mess with the cards. Even if you bundled everything together you might make your money back. Baseball cards from 1987-1993 are considered "Junk Wax Era ". Way over produced.
Is this thrift store on Pluto? Thrifts around here are picked over and only have stuff people were too lazy to throw away. It’s were items from people’s lives go to die.
Man your goodwills suck up there, not inventory related, just price related. In Florida it’s a little easier. I usually hit up yard sales 90% of the time, but I still find decent things at goodwill.
Hey guy. I've been a fan for years but would you consider doing a voice over like you used to? You're in the store doing a video while everyone around you can probably hear and it's giving them all ideas, so just creating more competition. It's already getting hard to find stuff at thrift stores because everyone is finding this stuff out. Just consider that. Thanks
@@FatherVinyard88 he might be thinking of a graded gem mint 10 Jackson/Menendez. Those can go for decent money. You also have Jordan, Bird, and Magic card can be pretty good also from that line.
@@GabrielAlcala956 Graded Gem Mint 10s of Jackson/Menendez can go anywhere between 20 bucks up to 500. But then you have a rare version the perforated gem mint 10s Jackson/Menendez that was on a full sheet of uncut cards that one Graded can upwards of $7,500 literally one just sold like a month ago for that amount. And the Jordan and Bird can Graded gem 10 can go from anywhere from $200 up $700. Those are just ebay prices over the last few months.
You really have to scan the prices. I've found retail price stickers on boxes for $5 and the thrift was selling it for $7, or just below the $5. WTH??? The thrifts should be #1, removing the sticker prices, and #2, selling wayyyyy below the retail prices. I don't mess with electronics anymore. Too much trouble. You have to test test test.
Those many baseball cards mean a) somebody died and left them and nobody wanted them; b) nobody wanted to buy or sell them; c) too many baseball cards flooding the market.
Calling things "overpriced" when they are retail doesn't really make sense. They are focused on their business, not looking to give you amazing deals to supply yours.
Don't cut open the cards... Seriously. If there's a card that's valuable in the set then it's more valuable if it's still sealed and in the box. I don't understand why you would want to cut it open. Sell the set as a sealed item

local thrift stores in my area no issue with me
@@intuitivelymagician2076 that’s what I stick with and my small stores make me crazy deals because I actually communicate with them and donate a ton to them.
Thrift stores are also watching their margins and the lease and employees do no work for free. They have mouths to feed as well.
I mean they probably are increasing the prices because so many people go to thrift stores to resell now. Which sucks for people who are just poor and are trying to find a good deal for personal use.
That Pendleton is 🔥! I wouldn’t mess with the cards if my life depended on it. 😆 Great stuff! ☮️
Cards all day, wouldn't mess with clothes
Thank you so much! You inspired to go shopping at goodwill, and I made about $220 from spending $60
On Sony hifi gear.. always look at the end of the name.. if it ends with ES it is usually some high end gear.. ES meaning elevated standard or something of that sort. Audiophiles can pay top dollar for that stuff.
Thanks for the tip! Ill keep that in mind
You are my favorite reseller! I really enjoy your videos. Keep them coming
Great job Thriftschool, nice video. Thankscfor taking us on this thrifting journey with you. Good job.

Chia uses any herb seeds as replacement, so people still buy them if the seeds are old
Wow you really scored on this one. Once again very entertaining.
Goodwill has doubled their prices where I live.
I’m sure lol. They want more money for ceo
That is a HUGE thrift store. The ones in my area are not like this.

My super find on 9/10/22 was a Tim Cotterill signed bronze frog 132/1000. I posted it on ebay for $1200.
Prices there have been ridiculous!! And, the color on sale is never there 🤷♀️
Do you find there's a certain section that is usually the best to focus on? Like, if you had limited time, would you focus in more on books/media or games or something else?
Either I have so much competition in my area or my goodwills stink. Love seeing all the consoles at your stores.

Hi Jesse 😃 thanks for your videos. I learn a lot from you 👍🎊🎉

A Bop It pro of course
It’s no one , you’re right
ARRGH! The Minnesota Vikings Varsity Letterman Jacket @11:18, That one goes for $150 or More!!
I would have paid $60 for that!!
Sealed boxes are worth a good price for sealed wax

1989 hoops basketball box’s go for 80 to 110 per box 20 was a steal
Seems like having a good smart phone could be important in doing retail arbitrage do you think android vs iphone either one has an advantage?
Topps and Upper Deck are the best cards IMO
Those Chia heads are still good as a collectible and being its in the box makes it more valuable. People who are looking for those would just buy new chia seeds. just a heads up in case you come across another boxed chia item.

Smart move on passing on the cards. That many boxes in 1 area likely belonged to a hobby shop that already picked through it and pulled anything good.
