RE: STREET MAGIC - A Look Inside My One-Man-Army Recycling/Thrifting Resale Business - $9,164 Revenue / $7,896 Profit In November
Good to know, thanks for all the information bro. I have never sold on ebay but i know that newbs dont sell as much becuase of lower ratings and i wondered how that affected you. Unfortunately i havent seen anywhere in my area that get me the type of free inventory that you seem to find, maybe im not looking in the right places or maybe my town is to small. I just never see things sitting out, not even on trash or recycling day. However antiques stores and thrift stores are a huge thing around me and i feel like there are some treasures waiting to be found i just dont know exactly what im looking for, that is why i like seeing your posts.. it gives me ideas. Im just going to try to start slow and see how i do, i figured with holiday season coming up there should be no shortage of good finds.
Not sure of your locale, but there are many ways to procure inventory. Estate sales, auctions etc. Some dealers I have sold next to at swap meets would run ads to haul things to the dump (for a fee) and often would get great things to sell on top of getting paid to haul the stuff away. You can also make up some business cards for hauling and give them to real estate agents that deal in foreclosures. Often those houses still have the previous owners belongings in them, and you can get paid to get your inventory that way as well. I could go on, but that should be enough to give you some ideas. Good luck :)
Those are all great ideas, thanks for sharing 😁
