Its amazing the pickers out there have no interest in learning from other pickers. Huge mistake. I have no problem with people that flip stuff I sell. I price fairly, and get a really good return on my investment. If they can turn around and make even more, no problem. I've moved on to the next item. Win/win.

Thank you for sharing your experience with the scammers that you encountered. People these days have such nerve and then they end up getting good ratings. Talk about unfair! I have a bunch of VHS tapes and I am thinking about selling them on e-bay, most of them are in good shape. I was wondering about IGS but they sound like a get rich quick scheme. I don't think I would use them, especially the fact that they take forever to get the tapes back. I think I'll take my chances without using them. By the way I love the intro music.

I was picking a sale a few months ago and going through the lady's DVDs when she asked if I wanted her vhs for free! As I was pulling out nightmare on elm street (2) sealed and others, another shopper at the sale asked if I wanted to come and pick up 6 totes of vhs from her house for free! I did the next day with half of the tapes being sealed! No crazy thousand dollar scores but several $50+ tapes. I think TMNT was the best one of the lot. It's crazy how timing can swing things so drastically with reselling. I just happened to be at the right place at the right time. I enjoyed the video and you have gained a new subscriber!

As a Sports card collector for all most 50 years . I CAN tell you that PSA has come under the GUN a FEW times for the dealing they do over the years ? They have let FAKE reprint cards go by , fake auto's go by & now trimmed or DOCTOR cards go by ? Then they come out & say it's there option & don't stay behind there grades , that much ? Also would seem the BIG dealers get BETTER grades on there cards , then other smaller people do ? I have seen cards they have graded & just don't fit the grading part at all ? They may be 1 to 2 grades to high & on another card 1 to 2 grades to low ? To, ME , they ARE a scam, big time & are hurting this field .

Hi, i'm from Belgium, i worked a rather long time in videostores ; first of all , you have to seperate VHS tapes in 2 groups ; sellthrough vhs tapes and rental vhs tapes...Here in Belgium during the eighties (untill begin nineties) almost every VHS tape was a rental tape...those rental tapes were of better quality AND (especially in the eighties) very expensive (150-300 euros/dollar for a rental tape ; i remember the invoices from my boss when i worked in a videostore during the eighties), most videostore owner bought only one copy in the eighties....today these eighties rental tapes are very very rare; Disney sellthrough tapes were mass produced during a certain period of time and then they were put in "the vault" ... A marketing gimmick from Disney before they had some serious competition from Dreamworks, Sony Animation....BUT still mass produced all over the world : so they are worth nothing generally. With VHS TAPES it's all about the rarity ; sealed or eighties rental tapes (bigger boxes). ... ALSO sellthrough tapes weren't the same quality as the rental tapes (single coating vs double coating).....***Greetings from Belgium***

Crazy that I had a good day at my local goodwill. I don’t sourcing lot anymore because of my work and I hardly can keep up with my shipping some days. And tackling my fealty pile. Trying to sell all my cloths I bought months ago and I regret getting into cloths. Hated it! No money and profit. You are the one who got me into bigger items qual bigger profits over cloths. Most of the time. I really got into small kitchen appliances. And now I am into golf clubs. I came from a golfing family. So I know what the pros uses and what to pick up. Just don’t play much golf. From a local goodwill when I dropped off a lot of tapes I got from a yard sale and took out the good ones. I saw a bag of golf clubs in the back room with head cover. Taylor made! And callaway head covers all over the top of the bag! I saw dollar signs in my head! I asked the guy who can I talk to that is doing the pricing and if I can ask if he can price them? Very kindly. He thought it was a set. It was a bunch of random clubs. Taylor made rbz driver, 3 and 5 wood! Callaway great big Bertha and 7 wood. Taylor made spider putter and odyssey dual force. With a set of Callaway irons 5-9 with a sand widge and pitching. With a standing bag. All for 60 some dollars. I had a 16 dollar rewards points and 20 percent off. What a great find!

I got it in my settings that I won’t ship anything till it’s paid. And if I post something and I get offers the second I post it. I think they have robots and they have software that they get. I heard that they do this for expensive printer ink. Before I sell it and they give me offers I look at their profile and see if they have a store. If they have a store that they have similar items what they are trying to buy from me. I look at their store to see if I priced it low or high. That’s how I do my investigation.

Hey man, sorry you had to deal with the Ebay scammers. It's just the competition using bots to send out bids and offers to put a hold on relisting or listing in general. It artificially inflates the sold comps and puts that hold on your product being listed for sale so they can sell the same product or a similar product at a higher or comparable price because the sold comps determine the market price of an item. We're never going to be able to "defeat" them or one up them, the strategy and execution tactics you use will work just fine. I've been reselling off and on for 27 years, helping my parents flip LA Gear sneakers in the flea market in the mid 90s and they dealt with scammers way back then so its really just par for the course unfortunately. Just keep doin what you're doin and you will keep crushing it 😎🤙 Ps. Love your content btw!

Hey Mike! Another great video! I love to search for VHS. Those are true hidden treasures. This is Joe, BTW. You & I emailed a week or so ago regarding book flipping on Amazon. Always wanted to ask you - are the gaylords that you buy for $100.00 leftover books & media from other pickers? You mentioned in a cpl of videos that you were coming behind other pickers. Does your spot just keep recycling the books & reselling a gaylord each time for $100? Just curious. Thx, man. Keep grindin'!!

We always get what we call FRESSH donations not PRE-SORTED. We mark the ones we sorted and have some other checks in place so we don't get the same books. They only sell them to a jobber after we are done with them. Not sure where they go after us.

Those aren't the ones to sell. Those have long been a scam. Look for the classic 80's type movie, Indiana Jones, ET, Top Gun, Ghostbusters etc. Sealed. Many of them have uniqueness to them as to why they sell for big money. Keep looking around. Just think classic movies not the old black and white.

My dad is trying to help his wife sell her collection of Barbie dolls... This one on eBay and immediately someone wants to buy it... I don't know all the details but apparently the buyer was my father to throw in a money card to give as a gift to his friend for his birthday... Believe it or not eBay canceled the sale as a red flag showed up somehow maybe because my dad is new and even knew this was a scam
