Enjoying your videos Simon. It is a grind sourcing in the charity shops. After seeing your Vinted pickups I’ve started supplementing my stock with Vinted purchases. I’m pleased with my purchases so far. I’m learning so much from you about what men’s brands to pick up, thankyou for taking the time making great content.

Thank you so much for the kind words and the support it means so much. I’m glad you are finding the brands helpful and using Vinted is definitely a great added bonus to the sourcing. Hope you have a great week. Kind regards Simon

Enjoying the videos. Could you please run through your posting method. What printer you use and working out how much to charge etc. Preferred company to post through. Do you get proof of delivery or had any problems. Thank you very much. I love the way youve organised your stock really professional.

Charity shops are a time sink. Wholesalers are the way to go. There are some good, some bad. But if you work at the relationship you’ll get what you want - the good ones will work with you. The down side is that you will get stuff you wouldn’t choose. But I’ve been proven wrong with some stuff I would never have picked up elsewhere. It’s been surprising. I use a combination of wholesalers and vinted - vinted is good for sourcing, but it can get complicated keeping track of it all and the state of some things is not what I’ve expected, so it’ll never be my main sourcing method.

@thegentlemanmarketeer 8 ай бұрын

Great advise and I 100% agree, I definitely need to have multiple ways of sourcing. I will work on this part of my business. Thanks again I appreciate the support. Hope you have a great week. Simon

@Micfri300 8 ай бұрын

Vinted is my only place for resourcing. Wholesalers tried and not impressed because yes you make profit however you are left with a lot of rubbish which is hard to shift.

@ThisisJo 8 ай бұрын

@@Micfri300 I get good stuff from Vinted, but it’s very hard to scale I would think? I do know people who do a lot of stock there. However, it really does depend on the wholesaler. The videos i see of Bulk and Fleek etc, all utter rubbish. I don’t use any of them. My wholesaler sent a sack of designer gear yesterday….but it takes work to find a good one!

I’d think the Folk shirt would be worth more than £16.99. More like £30-35

I know the feeling about needing other avenues I went to a town yesterday around 9 chazzers Found nothing as they are getting tapped in to better brands and pricing as I said before I’m looking for the better quality and brands to hit the £30 plus mark Again went out this morning nothing anything good was to dear for reselling I appreciate the charity shops are not there for us Went out Tuesday and found about 9 items So happy days Another good video and another brand I picked up off you to add to my infantry Thanks

I am assuming you are a sole trader? As a married man there may be tax efficacy's available to you trading as a limited company. You definitely need to be accounting for VAT under the VAT margin scheme for used sales as well as claiming allowances for your residence and business mileage etc.

@thegentlemanmarketeer 8 ай бұрын

Thank you so much for taking the time to watch and comment. I’m now a LTD company and I’m on the flat rate of interest scheme so 6.5% year 1 then 7.5% after. Hope you have a great week kind regards Simon

I see Diesel jeans in my local charity shops for around £8-10 would you pick them up for that price? I try to stay £5 and under really. Ps your videos always motivate me to list loads. Great video!

@thegentlemanmarketeer 8 ай бұрын

Thank you so much for the kind words, the cost of goods is so important can’t overpay or but too much and have a death pile. With Diesel jeans the most I will pay will be around the £10 mark but certain designs can sell for £40-£50 but others can only sell for 10-15 it’s important to know what are the good ones to pick up. Thanks again have a great week. Simon

what happens with the old number with the number system.

@thegentlemanmarketeer 8 ай бұрын

Hi thanks for taking the time to watch and comment it means so much. My SKU number are only ever used once, when the item sells the number goes with it. I started at 1 and can go up to a million. Hope that helps Simon

@martinlarge2614 8 ай бұрын

Hi Simon, do you weigh each item or do you just or do you put it down as a small parcel 2 Kilograms. I also like your number system is the number on the listing? I think I would dread getting a number crossed over.

@thegentlemanmarketeer 8 ай бұрын

Thank you so much for taking the time to watch and comment. I very rarely weigh any items as everything I sell is usually under 1kg for send with EVRI very occasionally if I sell heavy coats I may weigh but normally send with Yodel. Hope you have a great week Simon
