Each time I go to the Thrift Store I usually record. Most of the time I only find a few things or nothing at all and the recordings get scrapped. I decided to compile a weeks worth of videos that I would normally scrap and make 1 Longer multi thrift video. If you enjoyed this type of video, let me know! Im also open to any new video ideas you may have, just leave a comment below this and give me ideas :)
We sometimes go to The Red, White & Blue Thrift store, I hate the fact that it's cash only, but if it wasn't, I'd spend a hell of a lot more then I do!😂
@ Thrift School, was watching your vid today, happy 4th! You inspired me and I found a game while thrifting. Fully intact, looked it up. Worth about 40-50 or there about, got it for $4.99. thanks for helping me feed the addiction 😂😁
I’m new to Amazon selling and would really like to tackle what you do. How does becoming unrestricted work? Would love to know how you got started :) I’m enjoying the context. Keep it up! Thanks Thrift School!
So 1st love your channel. I'm trying to get started. I had a question when scanning dvds what to you look for in determining which dvds to grab and which ones to leave. Also how do you know if the ranking is high or low ? Thanks any help is much appreciated.
The gun lock imo would be ok because it's a anti item opposed to an active item. Even if that failed. There's 4 other anti fail safes that already come with a gun
If I had to guess I’d say they tape up the game boxes as they are complete. Someone wanted those game pieces for their board game at home that was missing pieces
Wow I have never thought about the gun lock in that way but I see your point. I have only sold one but dang that’s tough. I would definitely feel horrible if something happened.
So funny - I had never heard of BooBah before until this past week. I’ve found 2 of the big ones like you found in this video and 3 of the small versions all in a weeks time. At three different thrifts nowhere near each other in my surrounding area. Then I see him pop up in your thumbnail too. So wild how that happens sometimes.
Right?! I actually found 1 more of the small ones after I uploaded this video. The pink one I found here already sold for $40. Definitely something to keep an eye out for.
My kids used to watch Boobah when they were little and I bought the entire set of them. We still have them in the attic. I think I paid around £25 each back then (early 2000s)
Apparently the Kohl's Care plush to be on the look out for is Dr. Suess' the Cat in the Hat. Also, always get Yeti's!! It's true. There is always someone who loves Yeti's. They will always sell. Yeti's and Dragons and sharks.
Hi new sub here - great channel. One question - once you set up your Amazon FBA account are you automatically ungated in all of those items you purchased (games, etc)? Also, are you concerned that some of the items you are buying will sit past the 180 day mark to the point they will send it back OR does the ranks cover that?
It is important to understand that gun safety devices do not kill. Guns don't kill. The person pulling the trigger does so. Sell it. The only way the gun safety device will kill someone is if they are bludgeoned to death with it. - much like a high school locker lock.
The fact that most of the time you only find a few things or nothing at all goes to prove that it's almost impossible these days for anyone to make a living at this. I remember just a couple of years ago and before then when it was sooooo easy. Boy things have changed. I mean it's still good to make some extra pocket change every now and then, but that's about i.. but gone are the days when people can make a living at this unless they have a source of new merchandise at a discounted rate that they can resell... Hopefully nobody ever quits their jobs and tries to do this full-time, because they would be in for a rude awakening.
That is not true at all. There are plenty of people who make a good living doing this. Also, you have to take into account where he is located, where he shops, what he sells, what time he shops, etc. For example, I live in an area where there are amazing thrift stores and I leave with cartfuls weekly. I know the right time and day to go for each thrift store. Some people just live in areas where thrift stores are not as good or prices suck. I am sure it is frustrating for a reseller to live in an area like that. But props to them because they hustle harder than anyone in the business.
Serious question… I only sell on eBay, so I don’t know anything about Amazon selling. Does some of those dvd’s really go for that much? I just saw that Ossessione dvd brand new sell for $11.99 on eBay. If you’re actually making a huge difference with Amazon selling then I would rather go there for my media sales.
Hey Man. I've been selling on Amazon for a few years and ungated in many things. How did you get ungated in Brother? I'd love to be but don't even know where I can get those invoices. Thank you. Enjoy the videos!
I went to so many thrifts and was only finding a couple of things at each place so it was never good enough for a fully dedicated vid. Glad I saved all the footage so I could make this one happen
I know you say the Pokémon figures are pretty expensive at $25 but most of them can sell for $10+ each if they are the regular sized/branded figures and not knockoffs and the bags looked pretty full could’ve been worth at least a longer look at them or doing more research
Love the channel but I don't understand how you pull a movie like Ossessione that's selling for $128- do you just know to price check older movies like that from having so much experience with this?
Dude, you don't use the 20% discount when you go over $20 at Goodwill? Or you just doing this so you get the full price return if there's something wrong with them? I'm just wondering is all. 😅
That would be the same difference if a kid chokes and dies from a game piece, or an electronic that plugs in fails or if the person zaps themself from not plugging it in correctly. Or any other accident that could come from things. Following that line of thought. There is other better reasons to not sell gun related things, but gun and accessory manufactures seem to make it out ok.
No I wouldn't sell it - but if you really wanted to you can look into collectors to buy it for itself or the vintage of it and unless they will be a market won't play with it - if you know what I mean.
I don’t sell trigger locks because they are typically not profitable. I’d have no problem selling anything like that. There is no way you’d be responsible for a gun trigger failure, not sure why you believe you’d be responsible!?!?
Dang! Well I have lots of cards for sale in my ebay store linked in the description. If you want to buy a bulk amount I will work out a killer deal for you.
I dont sell anything gun related. Theres too many variables and too many laws in different states. Selling it online only makes it more convoluted. Something can come back to you years down the road. Not worth it
Leave them Junky cards alone. Nothing but Junk and even if you did find a good card it would probably be beat to death. The way them cards are packed in that Box their all going to have dinged up corners and edges.

Definitely enjoyed. I think its important to show a full picture. The "rough with the smooth" if you will 🙂.
Have you tried "Savers"? There's one in Orange and also Brookfield
Good idea I liked it

i really dont mind these longer videos. maybe you can do them more often, there a good watch for my lunchbreak!
Great! Im glad. Ill try to save more vids to do these every so often.
Red Rising is a board game based off of a great book series. Worth a read of the series and a play of the game!
I love your channel! It’s relaxing to watch. GREAT VIDEO!
$25 for the bag of toys was INSANE but that Disney set did look sick
I’m new to Amazon selling and would really like to tackle what you do. How does becoming unrestricted work? Would love to know how you got started :) I’m enjoying the context. Keep it up! Thanks Thrift School!
Still my favorite ytuber going on 7 yrs
Thanks! Glad I can provide you entertainment, even after all these years. Ive been uploading so long, its pretty crazy to me.
Red Rising was super cool to see. It’s a really good sci-if book series.
So 1st love your channel. I'm trying to get started. I had a question when scanning dvds what to you look for in determining which dvds to grab and which ones to leave. Also how do you know if the ranking is high or low ? Thanks any help is much appreciated.
Great video! What size of poly bubble mailer do you use for single dvd's? Thanks!
The gun lock imo would be ok because it's a anti item opposed to an active item. Even if that failed. There's 4 other anti fail safes that already come with a gun
If I had to guess I’d say they tape up the game boxes as they are complete. Someone wanted those game pieces for their board game at home that was missing pieces
I’m surprised you don’t get an over wrapping machine to redo the seals on some of the new DVDs
Are these things also good pick ups for ebay? Great content, always inspires me and gives Mr things to look out for on my ebay store!
suddenly last summer.. wicked film
That Belief game looked badazz
Wow I have never thought about the gun lock in that way but I see your point. I have only sold one but dang that’s tough. I would definitely feel horrible if something happened.
Nice video.
Nice long video!
What bar code scanner do you use?
So funny - I had never heard of BooBah before until this past week. I’ve found 2 of the big ones like you found in this video and 3 of the small versions all in a weeks time.

Yetis are always so cool. It looked like a high quality plush, I should have looked into it a lil bit.
There was a toybiz Galactics that you missed at 12:55. He was worth around 30 or so.
Love schoolhouse rock
Hi new sub here - great channel. One question - once you set up your Amazon FBA account are you automatically ungated in all of those items you purchased (games, etc)? Also, are you concerned that some of the items you are buying will sit past the 180 day mark to the point they will send it back OR does the ranks cover that?
No, to your first question.
Saw dvd box sets with Big Lots $5 sticker still attached. Goodwill priced them at $7.99.
Dang. I hate that
It is important to understand that gun safety devices do not kill. Guns don't kill. The person pulling the trigger does so. Sell it. The only way the gun safety device will kill someone is if they are bludgeoned to death with it. - much like a high school locker lock.
I sold a rare Pink boohbah for £75 about $85 a few months ago, then last weekend I found a blue one! Freaky toys sell lol
Yes I would sell the gun trigger lock. NO issue what so ever.
Did you have a hunch that those movies were worth something, or was it just from searching at the moment?
Cake pans eh? I never woulda thought. Probably character ones I'm guessin?
i love racko i have that game my g,ma had it for use kids to play and when she moved she gave it to me
Shoulda got the card lots. Even putting up a random 50-100 card lot for 10 bucks and putting the quantity high you can make tons off those bulk buys.
Red Rising 5 dollars is great 😮
Some tomy pokemon figs can pay for that bag individually
It was possible. I could have made some money. But its ok. Theres always next time when they are randomly priced at $2.99 lol
Wich city is this

23:32 how funny I just watched Exist wounds a few months ago
Ive never heard of it. Was it any good?
@ThriftSchool it's fine Nothing special
Hey Man. I've been selling on Amazon for a few years and ungated in many things. How did you get ungated in Brother? I'd love to be but don't even know where I can get those invoices. Thank you. Enjoy the videos!
I was luckily grandfathered in. Lots of brands I used to sell all the time, I am now gated in, which stinks. But luckily not Brother.
I find those BooBah's often. I've sold one in every color. They are good sellers. I love finding them even though they are a bit creepy lol!
Missed a Kaiju figure in one of the bags, those are popular, not all of them are valuable though
I WAS WONDERING WHERE U BEEN ......... WHOOOO HOOOOOOO
I went to so many thrifts and was only finding a couple of things at each place so it was never good enough for a fully dedicated vid. Glad I saved all the footage so I could make this one happen
All those bags of toys have red tags sooooo 1/2 off 😃
8:59 there's candyland Dora the explorer. I loved Dora the explorer as kid
So did I lol! I had no clue they made a candayland version of Dora
I know you say the Pokémon figures are pretty expensive at $25 but most of them can sell for $10+ each if they are the regular sized/branded figures and not knockoffs and the bags looked pretty full could’ve been worth at least a longer look at them or doing more research
A lot looked like the fast food Pokémon toys.
Cool
Thanks
I would so get the Pokémon bag for me 😂❤😮
Actually, the lock is a protection piece. Also, it might help save someone else’s life.
what sells thequickest, other than video games?
Probably toys. Board games and the sort always sell pretty fast for me.
Love the channel but I don't understand how you pull a movie like Ossessione that's selling for $128- do you just know to price check older movies like that from having so much experience with this?
Pretty much honestly. Ive been selling media and movies much more for the past 3 years and have learned so much.
I'll buy that label from you
What state are you shopping at?
Connecticut
@@ThriftSchool cool
From you
👍
Dude, you don't use the 20% discount when you go over $20 at Goodwill? Or you just doing this so you get the full price return if there's something wrong with them? I'm just wondering is all. 😅
I dont have a 20% discount here in CT. If the total is over $20 we get a 5% discount only
You all get a % discount at your Goodwills for going over $20?!! WHAT?!! We don't got squat here in So Cal. Lucky duckies!!!!!! 🦆🦆
Not in Nor-Cal either. As much as I hate to say it, that new señior discount for me is actually coming in handy. 🤦🤷
That would be the same difference if a kid chokes and dies from a game piece, or an electronic that plugs in fails or if the person zaps themself from not plugging it in correctly. Or any other accident that could come from things. Following that line of thought.

Very true. But I have heard stories of individual sellers catching the blame on faulty items, which is absurd to me, but it can happen sadly.
No I wouldn't sell it - but if you really wanted to you can look into collectors to buy it for itself or the vintage of it and unless they will be a market won't play with it - if you know what I mean.
Some people like that
thanks for staying away from those card bins.
I think I made a good decision. Who knows, there could have been some valuable rookies in the middle of it all
I don’t sell trigger locks because they are typically not profitable. I’d have no problem selling anything like that. There is no way you’d be responsible for a gun trigger failure, not sure why you believe you’d be responsible!?!?
Who says you have to sell everything on Amazon ?
Woohoo
Woohoo is right!
👍🏽
Hello! :D
Hello!
Your videos never show if the electrics work or not. Alot of times at thrift stores the electronics done even work
If you would have got the baseball cards I would have bought them
Dang! Well I have lots of cards for sale in my ebay store linked in the description. If you want to buy a bulk amount I will work out a killer deal for you.
You could also save someone’s life with something like a gun lock
Handgun parts are ok. AR15 nope
Oh zero % feedback could just mean they're account is new right? It's not zero from negative reviews is it? Now that would be a huge red flag. HA!
I dont sell anything gun related. Theres too many variables and too many laws in different states. Selling it online only makes it more convoluted. Something can come back to you years down the road. Not worth it
Thats kinda what I figured. I dont think ive ever sold anything gun related besides a leather holster or something like that almost a decade ago.
Promo>SM 🤔
I don't sell anything that has to do with guns; not even toys. I don't want to held liable.
First
Yes you were!
knows about thrifting but doesn't know Buzzlightyear worth money?
Leave them Junky cards alone. Nothing but Junk and even if you did find a good card it would probably be beat to death. The way them cards are packed in that Box their all going to have dinged up corners and edges.
Yeah thats what I figured. Just thrown in bins with Tape all over. Recipe for damage.
Hey is there a way to contact you directly if I have some questions?
Instagram is the best way
