in #thrifting5 years ago (edited)

On top of my freecyling/upcycling, I thrift for income.

There's money to be made everywhere if your eyes are on the lookout.

Enjoy the ideas and inspiration below.

Sale prices are the revenue before fees and shipping. Feel free to ask any questions.

The Finds:

Nikon Binocular Microscope - Bought For $27.22, Sold For $138.

Ceramic Tea Brewing Set - Bought for $32.66, Sold For $150.

Garmin Golf Watch - Bought For $27.20, Sold For $150.

Ugly Betty New DVD Set - Bought For $4.34, Sold For $55.

Toothbrush Heads - Bought For $5.43, Sold For $42.

Many of these were brand new or new in an open box. Lots of of value at cheap cost to make a profit on.

You never know what you'll find in any thrift store each day, so go with an open mind and try to research the value on anything that stands out to you. If nothing stands out, dig a little deeper, or move on to another store. Even the most obscure items that seem worthless at first glance can have unexpected value. Collectibility, scarcity and condition are all x-factors that can make something worth a pretty penny.

Follow for more. I have thousands of examples to share. Just need more followers to know the effort and intel won't fall on deaf ears.

Thanks,

That is a amazing my friend . Thanks for sharing @steemmatt

Interesting, You gotta good eye for value.... LOL who realy buys a Ugly Betty DVD ? LOL there is a buyer for everything. I wonder what I could find here to sell?

Thanks man. The Ugly Betty DVDs were only valuable because of the 3rd season. Sometimes there is a scarce production and then they go out of print, which makes Ugly Betty a pretty good pick up.

I suggest spending a fun afternoon hitting a few stores nearby. One good find and you’re hooked.

Ok , you did your research. Can’t wait till we can start selling seamlessly here on steemit.
Where do you sell mainly btw ?
