Julien - dude, look at you! I heard you were doing youtube from a common friend named Travis. I don't do instragram, but I think you still have my email. Reach out! Jim, known as 531. :)
My last trip to Goodwill has completely soured me on the company and I'm not sure I'm willing to do business with them anymore. I bought 3 stools from them, put them in my car, took them home and took one in to see if it fit the counter height, which it did not, so I took them back the next morning. Instead of returning them, I decided to donate them along with a bunch of other items that I brought with me. They took everything EXCEPT the stools, citing that they have too many scratches. The stools are in pristine condition and the scratches they are talking about is the freaking woodgrain you are supposed to be able to see through the transparent stain. 24 hours earlier they were sitting on the damn sales floor! The entire 20 minutes that I was there, the person working did nothing but bitch and complain about the company and how much trouble he would get in if he accepted items that were not in mint condition. I returned them for full credit. They went back on the sales floor to be sold again, which they did almost immediately. They could have had them back for free, but refused. Idiots.
Marky, It's the employee, and not Goodwill that misspoke. Goodwill is not known for taking 'pristine' items. There is nothing at a Goodwill store that is in 'pristine' condition unless it is given to them new from a retail store because they can't sell it or given to them randomly from someone. It's a good thing that you received in store credit for the stools.
I think thrift stores may have that 24-hour re-pricing policy on non-tagged items to keep people from removing price tags in the hopes of getting it repriced on the spot for a cheaper amount.
I have one of those handle items that you don’t know what it is. It goes with a grill pan so you can place the pan on and off the grill without burning yourself. I do veggies and fish in mine.
Luv your channel. But in NY...all countries they closed all the Goodwill and salvation Amy stores plus any independent thrift shop. When your POOR, you can't get any warm clothes or things to decorate where you live. Really living thru you and the Mrs. Thrifting. BTW, my son got our Razors Edge Dela Cruz Gotti line blue nose pitbull from Tennessee at 7 weeks old. My son was a master carpenter, loved pitties. So I would buy a big bag of stuffed animals from Goodwill so our big boys could play, "decapitate" actually their toys. Now my hubby, my son just 46, have passed but are buried in a cemetary, (all their dogs cremated and with their masters). So Tennessee is a special place to me. Thanks for sharing with this old lady. God bless.
I agree with the method of selling from several different categories. There’s never a shortage of inventory to be found. Just today, going to several different community garage sales, I found doc martens, Birkenstocks, crocs, Ariats, a big bag of vintage Barbies and Kens, a big plastic bin of vintage crocheted afghans (for only a dollar!), plus some new in package items at great prices. Meanwhile this guy kept showing up at some of the same sales asking if they were selling any video games. I never did see him find any (not to say he didn’t), but if you expand your horizons a bit, there’s plenty of stuff to be found. Many people practically give it away, too because they need it gone.
Just subscribed been watching for a while- my Goodwill, Savers, and opportunity house thrift stores all want to charge eBay retail prices on most of the good items. I find that thrift stores waste too much time to come up dry. ( At least for me) I do my best sourcing from Estate Sales anywhere from 10xto30x and sometimes even more - I even do online estate sales. Thanks for sharing your experiences and knowledge
Sadly,I have definitely been told time and again, if something isn't priced they won't sell it to you! Stupid stupid GW rule! ) : Awww, Karen, Larry, and Willard the geese! I love that! ( : Wow, the Aladdin lamp was pretty cool! ( : A Tommy Bahama sweater! Wow! Hi dad! ( : Two Tori Richards too? Good to know about all GW's getting shipments from certain brands at the same time.

its true keep goin to those close goodwills happens to me too at christmas found waterford high end ornaments at three goodwills sold for $90.00-125.00 each 5 of them
I don't like to shop at Goodwill because I find way too many things priced higher than new retail, and often things with higher clearance tags from other stores still on them. I know they don't buy inventory at clearance prices, but sometimes by whole wrapped palates at a very low price. I also don't like how people think they are a charity, and how much the big boss makes each year...
Hi 👋🏻 new subscriber ✌🏼I enjoyed this video and what you bought. Those I am subscribed to don’t do much thrift stores. Mostly yard sales, which I love and find interesting what you can get for cheap. See you on the next ✌🏼⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Enjoy your life! 😊
I live in Eastern Pennsylvania. There is nothing good in any of the goodwills or in the one bin store next door to one of the stores. All good stuff goes to web site. Thought it would be go to in Winter but it wasn’t. Clothing no big names.. Hard goods Nothing big. You got good stuff down in SC.
I used to go to a Goodwill store 3, or 4 times a week, and spend money every time. Then came the time I went, picked out an item to purchase which had a Goodwill price tag on it. Got in the line to pay. When it came my turn I put my item on the conveyor to be scanned. As soon as the cashier looked at my item, and the Goodwill price tag, she stopped, and refused to scan my item, saying that she thought my item should be more expensive than the price on their tag. I`m in their store, looking at their price tag that they put on the item, and they aren`t going to sell it to me. Bait and switch to me. Left the store, and haven`t been back since, and that has been years ago. I hope the lost revenue from my purchases was worth it to them. Oh, almost forgot. For years I donated good quality items to them, and never once asked for a receipt. Now I donate to someone else.
Hey, at 4:40 there was the top of a fairy lamp… clear glass. Funny thing is I found the bottom of the exact one at the Habitat for Humanity store today in Colorado.
I have seen the same thing at our closest goodwill. An item didn't have a price on it so they told the lady that they had to take it in the back, price it, and then put it on the shelf. Of course it wasn't the color of the week when the brought it back out. I think it is pretty stupid that they have to do that. Just put a price on it based on what it is and sell it to them.
Goodwill is getting REALLY greedy and hard to work with. Something not priced? Come on. It's free to them! They can come up with a price. Greed Greed Greed!
I wouldn’t call it greedy. It sounds more like a procedure to guard against shoppers trying to manipulate better pricing. No tag…take it out of process until it can get a new price tag.
The Goodwills I shop at in Texas, Arkansas and Oklahoma all just price it at the register or call a higher up to the register to price it. Guess they are more in the business of moving product.
The Good Wills need more competition. We have a store called Gems, all clothes 1.99. I don’t understand, donations are free…I wonder why I left Walmart? Get the workers real jobs for real work.
You go to goodwill every morning to snap up all the good stuff to sell for your profit. When you don’t like the price for something because it cuts your gain you put it down. All your doing now is driving up prices on decent items for lower budget people.
no spluh. you're just now getting it? every goodwill trip i see like a whole wall of overflow target merchandise. noice hawaiian shirts tho. i'd be fixin to keep that aztec one for myself
Yes, I tried to buy a vintage wooden purse with decoupaged owls, lucite handle. No price tag. Taken to the back will be out on next cart. Next cart was several hours later. I realize here is a protocol, but how hard is it to price one item?
I hate to say it, but it appears your Goodwill in that part of the country are starting to catch up with ours down here in Texas. They’ve raised our prices over the last year tremendously. It’s really hard to find anything but clothes and make any money on it. All their electronics are over priced, kitchenware same. Thank the Lord for estate sales and garage sales. And yes that cup fits Kayla perfectly.
Lots of nice items today! I was sad to see that the 60s anthropomorphic creamer sold; it was so cute... wish I had seen it first! 😊 Thanks for all your hard work and insight - I enjoy BOTH channels! ~ Amy 😍
Luckily my Goodwill’s will take it in the back and price it pretty quickly…hate that yours doesn’t :( Tonight I went to one of my regular Goodwills and realized they’ve jacked up prices again(just did not too long ago) & a ton of the short sleeve button up shirts or polo style shirts went up to $9.38 😳..what was most shocking though is that even George brand( Walmart brand) was tagged the $9 🙄
they are raising prices because of all the resellers going on youtube and bragging about how much they are making. nowadays everyone can check online and see what things are going for, the sellers are getting smarter. some people ruin it for others by tearing the price off hoping to get it cheaper or coming back the next day.
I have been disappointed in goodwill for years. I saw faded, stretched men's t-shirts cost more than I could buy new.I Don't bother anymore. Won't donate to them anymore.
Quit pretty much going to goodwill as they vastly over price the ' free donated items ' they get .far less expensive to go to wally world and buy it new .
Thanks so much for watching everyone!
See, I told you! The pricing is crazy!
Thanks for posting! ( :

KitchenAid handle, removable, for a baking vessel for baking !

Great video! Kayla is going to have an awesome find, she rubbed the Jeannie lamp. God bless stay safe until the next video 💓 😍
It is always good to have your hands in all kinds of stuff not just couple items.
I agree with that esp when thrifting and yard saling

It is a bottle opener. The red handled kitchen tool. A bottle opener.
I hate goodwill mostly. I'd rather give my $ to local thrift stores

Our Goodwill is the same. No price no sell.

Do you think that Izod LaCoste was 1980s? 🤔 Brought back memories!😊
Hey, at 4:40 there was the top of a fairy lamp… clear glass. Funny thing is I found the bottom of the exact one at the Habitat for Humanity store today in Colorado.
The item from kitchen aid is a heater you put in a cup of water to heat it for coffee or to make instant soup
My previous comment was wrong, I thought the kitchen aid item had an element for heating until you showed a closeup
Yea they must split up store closeouts or something..saves money on quantity listings too! Great tip!
Yea I agree - so usually when I find something good at one esp clothes I ran to another one
@@beardedthriftmachine yep!

Unfortunately they have to do that to because people remove the tags to try and get a better price.
yes our salvation army...,we call sally's , does that...if no tag you cant buy it...
been that way for a long time...
Love WhatNOT!! We have been a seller for over a year! Going to follow you now!
That brass Alladin Lamp is hand carved.
Thank you! I thought so
Goodwill is getting REALLY greedy and hard to work with. Something not priced? Come on. It's free to them! They can come up with a price. Greed Greed Greed!
Yea - I don't like the no price tag rule - seems.i always find items with not price tags lol
Yes, they are acting like you have removed the price tag when you found it like that. It's insulting!
I wouldn’t call it greedy. It sounds more like a procedure to guard against shoppers trying to manipulate better pricing. No tag…take it out of process until it can get a new price tag.

I think the kitchen aid thing is a removable handle
I have a SeaBee hat listed, I live near a base, and an air force base too.
I had some sea bees stuff before that sold fast.
I have geese at my workplace. She has a nest in the exact the same spot every year! 😊
Prices always seem way to high for things they get for Free!!
You go to goodwill every morning to snap up all the good stuff to sell for your profit. When you don’t like the price for something because it cuts your gain you put it down. All your doing now is driving up prices on decent items for lower budget people.
Thanks for your opinion 🙂 👍
Kitchen aid gadget. Do you use it to pull hot pans from oven?
That might be it - we never found out lol
@@beardedthriftmachine definitely a handle
Vtg Pyrex & corningware have one that is very similar
no spluh.

BOOM! Trophy!
Good morning I was wondering were do u look for the price my son told me to watch u I do lot of yards sail thank u have a wonderful weekend
i look at ebay then filter to sold items
Didn’t know about ham racks! Will be on the lookout!
I always say that, you see an item and you will see it one plus more times.
I agree 100%
Thanks
I was going to ask you about your dad because I haven't seen him in your videos for quite some time and look he shows up. Hey, Dad.
Yea dad said he can't go to yard sales until his death pile is listed
The "South Lake Tahoe" Goodwill is way above the rest. It doesn't even resemble a second hand store, but more like a Ski Lodge gift shop.
Fun ! And Funny !! ❤❤

Hey Oh!!!
I know you are right because one Goodwill has all teacup saucers and another has only teacups. It’s ridiculous that they separate them.
Larry from llamaville…😂😂😂
Believe it or not, it used to be that in Texas you needed a permit in order to buy those Pyrex flasks. Just another attempt to stop the drug trade.
Interesting
Kitchenaid is a handle to a deep fryer basket. (Garbage)
Lots of nice items today! I was sad to see that the 60s anthropomorphic creamer sold; it was so cute... wish I had seen it first! 😊

~ Amy 😍
Just ran across your channel, new subscriber, love it and I m learning a lot, future reseller 😊
That's why I like to sell lots of different categories. You can almost always find SOMETHING>
I am going to guess it is a removable handle from a pot or pan. Like remove to cook in oven.
The kitchenaid handle is from a kitchen aid grill skillet :)
Luckily my Goodwill’s will take it in the back and price it pretty quickly…hate that yours doesn’t :( Tonight I went to one of my regular Goodwills and realized they’ve jacked up prices again(just did not too long ago) & a ton of the short sleeve button up shirts or polo style shirts went up to $9.38 😳..what was most shocking though is that even George brand( Walmart brand) was tagged the $9 🙄

@@mikeohagan2206 they are just greedy! They are a for profit company.
[7:10] That's a pot handle
It's a pan handle
I think it’s a handle that you could put on a Corning ware
I want the STD beaker 6:37
Should go for forty bucks....or 19.99. Whatever same thing. Lol
Lol 😀 😆 🤣
Where are you gonna list that genie lamp?
The shoe brand is Florsheim.
Lol yea I miss spoke and had the wrong shoe.
Looks like fryer handle
Well that was pretty interesting. I didn’t know people still bought Izod.
I think just the izod lacoste stuff - that seems to sell for my pretty good and the tori Richard sold in about a day - 😀
hat trick!
😊

Another awesome video ❤
I have been disappointed in goodwill for years. I saw faded, stretched men's t-shirts cost more than I could buy new.I Don't bother anymore. Won't donate to them anymore.
its a handle for a pot
That mystery piece I think was a pot holder or handle
i do think Kayla is the prettiest reseller

You found a lot of good stuff. I have to believe that selling anything that makes a profit is the way to go. Thanks.
What is your Dads channel..
He sadly doesn't have one - I told him I'd edit for him to have one lol
