For brahs that sell clothes how many articles of clothing do you usually sell in a month and do you ever notice that your thrift shops start "drying" up?

I live in a small town, so I do notice that.

I don't go too often unless I'm looking for something other than clothing, which isn't picked much unless you have competition in your area.

I often have to travel to dig through thrift stores but I always make it worth it bringing back plenty of inventory.

Hey bros I fun goofed and posted auctions at 2AM so it ends Friday at 2AM and probably won't get many bids.

You should be able to still end it early then just relist.

you can cancel an auction if it still has more than 24 hours left, IIRC

Restoring a datsun 260Z, was about to drop $200 on rust repair patch panels.. Hit up my local junkyard and somehow lucked out, ended up getting everything I needed for my car, plus found some NOS parts in the trunk that I will be selling on ebay for a good profit. Looks like I'll be coming out ahead on this one.. For you car brahs, junkyards can be quite lucrative if you know what to look for

strong this. had to abandon selling clothing items I found from thrift stores because the opportunity cost was to high. It's a great way to get started though. Now I'm more into niche reselling. Hard part is finding a good item that will sell on eBay on the reg. Gl man.

I've been noticing a good amount of people on CL advertising they are buying gift cards for less than they are worth and listings for people selling them for less as well. I've noticed Lowe's cards mostly, but just general purchase as well.

What is the deal with these?

Gift card value: $50
You buy: $40/35

-----------------------------
Profit: $10/15

do at least 10-15 a day/ = easy cash.

You buy a product using the gift cards that you can resell easily or use for yourself.

Is it just me or are the clothes prices low as fuark these days? Everyone must be hitting up thrift shops lately. Seems like a year ago when I was doing this the prices were a lot higher.

Hey guys, do you think that 255.00 is too much for an iphone 4S with sprint(Clean esn)? I usually have no problem selling these within 24 hours, but this one isn't getting any bites.
Thanks

Quick question. Buyer claimed he bought item as a "mistake" so I cancelled it and he accepted. Does the money go back to his account automatically or do I have to log in to paypal and do it myself?

Also, he paid me $280 for the item but my paypal balance only shows $271.87... Why is that? REPS

Paypal takes a cut of the money. You have to go to your paypal and refund him the money, paypal will refund the $8.23 that they collected. So just go ahead and do the full $280.

[benchtochest]

what items sell best for you guys?

thinking of buying cheap supps and selling them on craigslist

[ImHuge07]

Do you guys start clothes auctions at .99 usually?

You must spread some Reputation around before giving it to Gsxr25 again.

That's not a good idea unless it's a popular item or brand.

Clothes don't go for much when in auction, might as well put a buy it now with a best offer option.

got a question for you pr0 photoshop brehs...

I've been wanting to improve the description area of my listings, including the store logo area. For instance, http://www.ebay.com/itm/Color-Clear-...item9505b75cec is something I've been looking at.

As far as his SHIP WITHIN 24 HOURS, FREE SHIPPING WITHIN US ONLY, 3 MILLION FEEDBACKS boxes go, is this all done within photoshop? Any pointers as to how one can go about doing something similar, as well as the photo gallery present in the description section? Not the most pointed of questions, but any tips on the best way to proceed would be much appreciate, thanks brahs

I just sold one on ebay for $242.50.. Black sprint 4s 16gb, perfect condition with box and charger... Sprint phones have much less demand than some other carriers it seems
