I sold on eBay for years from day one . I came so obsessed with going to thrift stores I spent money on a lot of junk that never sold . If a day went by I didn’t go I would actually have a panic attack. It almost ruined my life and my family hardly spoke to me . Make sure you don’t get hung up in things to much 😮

@deborahcostello8214 Жыл бұрын

I've been watching Karen for a while and don't think she's going to get hung up- she has no "death pile", everything is cleaned, listed and organized. I'd like to be her when I grow up except that I'm already older than she.

@jojothriftyteacher Жыл бұрын

That's great advice for new resellers...I like watching Karen because she's been doing it for 10+ years and can teach us so much.

@rhysphil9332 Жыл бұрын

Hippie Girl, I am the same way. If I don't make a sale each day I panic. I also get really anxious if I can't get out to source frequently. I hope you made more money than you spent and didn't get burned overall.

@lynn8524 Жыл бұрын

I can relate Hippie Girl. When I first started reselling ten years ago I became too consumed with it. I even gave up my three mile a day walk because I was too busy. I’m no longer like that even though I still enjoy it very much, I’ve learned to keep it in balance. Fortunately my husband and I aren’t dependent on my income even though it can be profitable.

@i.m.7710 Жыл бұрын

Take what you like and leave, heave, toss the rest: A competitive, go-getter, type A personality would do well in reselling and enjoy the chase. Over time, as habits form, thrifting can become therapy. My late dear friend used thrift shopping (not a reseller) as affordable therapy. She was a therapist and was well aware of her choice and actions. The “Ka-ching” cash register sound is highly addictive! I read an article about it last year. Probably releases endorphins. I noticed the thrill of that sound and the slight let-down when it didn’t happen. Noticing how it made me feel was important. I’m a laid back person and enjoying the process of whatever I do is a requirement. I do love leisurely hours of enjoyable thrifting. Especially without the pressure of needing rent money. Not everyone needs to be warned off a pastime or career they enjoy - if they are healthy in body, mind and spirit (it’s pretty obvious Karen is in that category).

I was in my local Goodwill the other day. A man and a woman were hovering near the door to the back. A woman wheels a cart out and says "here you are" to the female customer who proceeds to grab, grab, grab every new in bubble package toy on the cart. The man, who had done his own grabbing and who she didn't appear to be with, then started giving her advice on what the selling price for these items would be. It was a real turnoff to see the Goodwill employee obviously working with a reseller like that. This was in Hazlet NJ.

At 4:52 that glass bulb is an oil lamp, might be from Czechoslovakia. There is a glass piece that holds the long wick. You can still buy the wick holder. It's a glass tube the flares out a bit to hold it from falling in the container. The reason is suggest this country because I have a couple of these types and there was a sticker on the bottom so this one could have lost it sticker.

I am glad you mentioned the fact how Goodwill is separating matching items and selling them separately. I noticed that as well. Their prices are also slowly rising higher and higher. I am rather disappointed in that fact. I often wonder if their profits really go to the good causes they claim to support or rather to the executes themselves?

Happy New Year, Karen! Love seeing your thrift hauls. I wish we had such nice things in my area. I could be wrong, but am wondering if the pretty butterfly and flower ring is actually an ornament to dress up a ponytail? Something to cover up the ponytail elastic? You always find so many pretty things.

That round fish plate was carved from soapstone and made in Africa. I bought a similar one years ago at a church fundraiser. They were working with a particular village, I think probably in Kenya but I could be wrong. It’s kisii soapstone. I think you did good to leave it for 12 bucks but if I had seen it for under five or six I probably would’ve bought it. I paid $20 retail for mine probably 10 years ago.

Happy New Year, Karen. Interesting comment about Goodwill separating items and giving individual pricing. I went to Unique Thrift in Fairfax, VA, yesterday and they had separated pajama tops and bottoms into two separate racks and priced them individually. To me that was crazy. I couldn't find sets without trying to make matches. Also everything was so overpriced -- men's button down shirts were $10. It's gotten crazy.

Boot wear: Sometimes you can “read” the wearer’s activity when you look at a boot, like the wear from saddle stirrups. When I was a teen, back in the 70s, I used to get a wear spot to the top of my left boot, back a bit from the toe because the shifter on my dirt bike motorcycle was on that side and it shifted both up and down. To shift up, you put your toe under the lever and pivoted it up. Over time it left it’s mark.
