Are All Thrift Stores Non-Profit? (No, But These Are…)

I used to love donating to one of my local big box thrift stores. When I donated enough, they would give out 30% coupons which I would use to head right into the store and find things to flip. That is, until the day that I learned they were throwing most of my donations straight into the dumpster. They simply had too much stuff to sell. Donating to thrift stores can feel good but not if you don’t know whether your donation is being used to support a good cause. Most thrift stores are purposefully vague about how exactly they help the community, and most of their emphasis on donations remains o ..read more

Whether you’re a thrift-store-lover or a parent (or both in our case) you’ve probably had the experience of turning over a random stuffed animal and finding out that its been puked on. Or sucked on, snotted on, pooped on, drawn on, and everything in between. So what to do? Burn it with fire? Throw it away? Pretend you didn’t see the crust and put it back on the shelf? Since reselling thrifted plush on eBay is one of the things that puts bread on our table we can really afford to just put it back on the shelf. Which leaves us with learning how to remove the encrusted grime. However, washing stu ..read more

How To Reshape Leather Boots & Shoes (10 Minutes Of Work…)

As a thrift store fiend, I’m no stranger to wrinkles and crunched-up leather shoes and boots. It seems that every pair of shoes that has been lovingly cared for by the previous owner ends up misshapen 5 minutes after entering the donation bay of a thrift store. This really leaves me with three options: Wear misshapen leather boots or shoes Sell them on eBay for a reduced cost (because they’re ugly…) Learn how to reshape them before wearing or reselling them… Obviously, we’re going to choose the last one. Learning how to reshape leather boots and shoes (and even non-leather ones) is a skill t ..read more

How To See What eBay Items Sold For On Best Offer (3 Ways)
Reselling Revealed Blog

5M ago
At A Glance The only way to find the best offer that was accepted on an eBay listing is by using 3rd party software. The quickest and most reliable option is 130point which is free to use and can show you the sale price for nearly any completed listing just by searching its title. If you sell antiques on eBay…I’m sorry. Well, not actually. There’s a ton of money to be made but it’s one of the most difficult niches because everything is listed with a Best Offer option and it’s incredibly difficult to do pricing research. Should you list your antique doll for $80 or $800? You can see that one so ..read more

The 9 Most Valuable Tonka Trucks: A Price Guide

When I was a kid (in the 90’s) my parents didn’t bother buying me any Tonka Trucks. My dad’s (which had been sitting in the same sandbox) would do just fine, they thought. And, surprisingly, they were right. Tonka Trucks, one of the most nostalgic parts of many childhoods, last forever. Not to mention that they are tons of fun, probably slightly dangerous, encourage imaginative play, and are even valuable. You heard me right, there are Tonka Trucks worth money. Some of the most valuable Tonka Trucks can be worth hundreds or even thousands of dollars on eBay. So, as a Tonka Truck lover and eBay ..read more

Depop vs. Poshmark – Which Is Better For Sellers in 2023?
Reselling Revealed Blog

Every reseller gets excited when a new platform starts getting popular. I mean, we all know that sites like Craiglist have gone the way of the dodo and even eBay seems to be gasping for life. However, just because there’s another platform around doesn’t mean it’s worth using. Even though I resell full-time I have a finite amount of resources (not to mention hours in the day) that I can put toward work. So I have to limit the number of platforms I sell on to choose from only the very best. A couple of months ago I had it narrowed down to only eBay and Mercari but, when I wanted to add a more “t ..read more

How Long Does eBay Take To Ship? (2023 Update)
Reselling Revealed Blog
by sethb
6M ago
Waiting for an eBay order can be anywhere from annoying to nerve-wracking. There has been more than one instance where I have ordered something I need to have by a certain time (usually by the time I leave on a trip) and eBay fails to get it to me. Such experiences are frustrating because it usually means that I have to go out and buy something more expensive for the trip and then come home to have an “extra” one waiting in my mailbox. Knowing how long eBay takes to ship remedies many of these problems but, unfortunately, it’s not quite a straightforward answer. eBay is a platform made up of i ..read more

Mercari vs Poshmark: Which Is Best For Sellers?

It’s still surprising to me how many people are stuck selling things only on eBay. Whether you sell things online as a full-time job or as a way to get rid of extra stuff you should know that there are lots of places to sell things. However, it does leave you wondering where else to sell. With so many alternatives to eBay, which ones are worth your time? Since I advise most people to focus on only two platforms, it usually comes down to selling on eBay and one “other” place. But what should that other place be? Well, unless you’re a specialized seller, it should probably be either Poshmark or ..read more

11 Dr. Seuss Books Worth Money (Most Valuable Books List)

There’s not much more enjoyable than being a reseller and finding out that something you love collecting already is actually worth a bunch of money. That was the situation I was in a couple of years ago when a friend mentioned that they had been unable to find a Dr. Seuss book and ended up paying more than $50 for a copy on eBay. It turns out that there are tons of Dr. Seuss books worth money. Even after selling books on eBay and Amazon for several years, I hadn’t realized that children’s books (especially nostalgic ones) are a gold mine. So let’s take a look at some of the most valuable Dr. S ..read more
