Thanks for watching and saying those kind words! Its what keeps me going! Thanks again and im really glad you enjoy the content!

Exactly. I get people on here telling me that its only a couple extra thousand and its not impressive, but a couple extra thousand in 5 different categories adds up quick.

Popular music category is gated on cds. Some cds can sell, if they are not in popular music category.

I was grandfathered in, i would imagine its very hard to get ungated, there is always ebay, but... of course you cant get as much.

Good luck with averaging $12 a disc. I sold off some of my cd collection on eBay years ago and yeah, you can make a profit. You just should also consider the $1.50 per cd on packaging materials (if you don’t want them to crack) then there’s shipping, yes you can include that in the total price but you are going to get the customer that says, hey, I paid $3 for shipping but you only had to pay 2.18. You want to keep the customer happy so you send a refund. eBay then takes their share. And gotta consider the time it takes to post listings, packing, driving to post office… anyway, I encourage you to go on with your plan, I will suggest that you do some research and learn what’s collectible. You won’t leave the thrift store with as much stuff but you’ll make more per transaction. Look for special editions or collectors editions with unique packaging. After years and years of searching for media you’ll learn how to instantly spot it because it’s something you never saw before. My personal record was $1.50 cd from clearance bin and it sold for around $140.

Or maybe they don't have an outlet

Thanks for checking it out! Im glad you liked it!

You can use the seller app, but its not the best. It does work though

Can you use a bluetooth scanner with the seller app? or does it only work with camera?

I will be making more videos like this soon, stay tuned.

Sorry I think I figured it out, but maybe you can correct me if I'm wrong. $17avg sale price $8.00 profit after Amazon Fees? Minus cost to purchase + Shipping to FBA.

@@Tistaminis But who buys cds in 2018? I swear I just don't understand the market for these items and the profits claimed to have made...PLEASE someone HELP me understand the formula because I just can't believe people are buying cds, vcr's and type writers these days.

Odd, im restricted in DVDs.. Sucks :(

Best rank for CDs is 1

They can be :/ but if I am making money I am happy.

Between $1-$3 usually

about 20-25 minutes. with a Bluetooth scanner it takes about 7 minutes. Of course I left the bluetooth scanner at home.

I just recently picked up a blue tooth scanner and it saves a ton of time once its all set up! I would recommend anyone selling media or book pick one up, they are relatively cheap on Amazon.

Pedaissance you have to buy a seperate pad to clean gamecube games. Kind of a pain, but it is still worth it, if you find a lot of gamecube games

lol dude you're not kidding. Those little discs definitely eff up those buffing pads SUPER QUICK so I do the same and have separate pads for GC....but there's a good amount of valuable GC games so its worth it

Can you send me the Timestamp? Ill take a look. edit: NVM I found it. Yeah I make around 50% Profit on my CD sales. I spend on average $1.50 per CD. My Cost of Goods is pretty low when I am selling them for an average of over $20. Im not sure if you were saying I'm "way off" by being too high or low though but If I sell a CD for $20 that I bought for $1.50 Im usually profiting $10 at least per CD.

@@ThriftSchool The problem is that sales totals and profit totals are not the same.

I just buy and flip. I enjoy the thrill of the hunt.

Not an expert at all, just a small part of my entire business. CDs are just pretty darn easy to source so I incorporate it the best I can with what I can find.

$6000 is just in CDs (just a fraction of my business). I sell many other items that make me even more than CDs. It is my full time job.

@@ThriftSchool Okay, but isn't that a lot of work? Going to second hand stores, search for items, scan them, buy them, taking them home, cleaning, place it on a website, sell them, sending it over/shipping.. How do you even find the time to do some other things: cleaning the house, enjoying spare time etc etc...

@@wheeldealrepeat3698 Yes, I understand what you're saying. It probably does have something do to with that. I don't mind working hard, but not always. However, I do sell CD's myself when I have the time for it, but it's more like a hobby. It's not because I want to make a living out of it. It's a lot of work, and it costs a lot of time, and you won't end up rich from doing it. I think I earn more $ from my work at the office than I would earn on fulltime buying and selling CD's and other stuff. But okay, it's a choice you know. You have to do whatever makes you happy in life.

If a cd is still factory sealed then why can't it be considered new?

Yep yep
