I just wanted to say that you are a very kind guy and you should continue doing this for a looooong time. Long time. I find myself yearning for your videos as much as Froggy Flips and other guys around. You are really good at making these videos and your charisma is unmatched. Love watching your finds. Have a good one!
That bag of parts on the trees and sticker sheet is to the Cobra Moray. The shell was there, looks like you left it. If you hadn’t all would be worth alot more. Great haul!!!
Had a bunch of 80s toys growing up. I know the GI Joes are worth money even though I only had 1 or 2 of them growing up. The Transformers and Voltron is a great find. Always wanted that Mask truck.
I really like watching your videos. You are so good. I was inspired by you. I stopped being lazy to go for things. And I watched you from Thailand.respect my bro
Sweet Videos! My wife and I are big fans of yours. We were wondering if you can suggest what locations to omit regarding ebay shipping. We'd appreciate any advice. Thanks!
Brother, I highly recommend doing a little bit of research and learning the basics of jewellery. One small diamond ring could be upwards of $20,000 secondhand. My friend bought one for five dollars at a flea market. Sold it for $18,500 same day.
I love watching your videos. I used to live in Chicago (25 years) before I started reselling. Your vids make me jealous that I didn't get the bug when I lived there. 😂
Man you did awesome!! Gotta be early and you were. It paid off. If you could go back to that big toy sale would you have done anything differently? I like to revisit certain buys so I know for next time and can grow as a reseller. I think you handled it perfectly. I always learn a ton from you and your channel. Everyone should like this video and SUBSCRIBE to this channel. Highly underrated!! The grind and knowledge you have is exactly why you’re such a good reseller. Thanks for putting in the work and sharing your experience with us all.
Some cool vintage toy finds here especially the Micro Machines. That truck case was cool with 60+ cars but def. overpriced. And crazy that one G.I. Joe toy covered everything. Good deal 👍🏽 Also @1:28-1:48 I found one of those Melissa and Doug wooden mailboxes 2 days ago at my local Salvation Army and the sold comps complete with the 6 letters, 6 stamps and key are going for $50-75. Unfortunately the one I saw was missing the key, the stamps and had only 5 letters. Just another BOLO for you in the future.
I would have called his "we only do even numbers" bluff lol not a fan of estate sales they're basically doing what were doing. Youll get a deal here and there
Facebook, gsalr, yard sale treasure map, estate sale listings, community posts, etc. there are tons of resources available for people to advertise sales.
You probably already know this but the weapons and parts can sell for way more than the actual figures. Very nice pick ups and $240 seems like a lot of money but then you made up for it on one figure so the rest was pure profit. I wonder as you get better at this would it make more sense just to pick up the one figure and then leave the rest to the next guy since $300 profit on one figure is awesome money if you did that every day versus buying a huge pile of time sucking research and listing toys.
I would say he’s better off buying everything he can make a good profit on. He’s gonna profit $1k-$2k net take home on everything. He likes to bundle things so a lot of the less expensive stuff he’ll bundle and he’ll sell the better stuff individually. It’s worth his time since he does this full time plus smaller toys are super easy to pack n ship. That’s my take anyways. A part time reseller might be better off just grabbing the most profitable expensive stuff to sell.
Ok I’m gonna break a rule I have for commenting and leave another comment…Does the Chicago area have any Toy Conventions? If so are you going to any? You should go and give Froggy Flips a run for his money in the toy department. Any Toy Con or Vintage Con type content with buyouts would be most excellent. I always see nice sub bumps with Con content and cross channel content. Anyways, just a thought.
@@jeffwall3867 thanks for chiming in with your thoughts and opinion to my comment. Totally unnecessary but appreciated nonetheless. My original comment doesn’t need explanation. Either he’ll respond or he won’t. Don’t read too much into it.
Haha nah I’ve always called things like that zoids. Zoids is a series of toys and anime that started back in the 80s and was revamped in the early 2000s. They are basically mechs shaped like animals. You should check them out they are pretty cool. I have called anything similar to them “zoids” since I was little. Just a habit that slipped out.
@@ReadySetResell I have to say it was a heck of a great lot at great prices. Well at least some 🤔 great prices others were kind of average do you sell on eBay if you do then what’s the name of your store? I’d love to take a look Thanks for replying.
That looks like fun. Look at the great toys.
Thank goodness you posted today. I was going through withdrawal!! ☺️
😆
As a Joe collector, I congratulate you on the insane find.
Thank you!

Love watching your videos one of my favorite TH-camrs to watch!!

WOW, great buys, you've inspired me to go out and see what I can get in some yard sales this weekend

Great finds! I blew it on my 1st Joe haul but still made out and learned a lesson
Great haul Ben, good video footage. Thanks.
Great profit and everything

Awesome pick ups!!!
It seems like you got a great deal, those are great toys.
Great haul!

Where do you get your sales list from? Yard sale treasure map, Facebook, Craigslist? Some tips would be great! Love your content. Learning alot.
Missed you Ben!!!
I learn so much every video, thank you! ❤ Do you feel like Chicago is much less impacted for thrifting and estate sales than say Los Angeles?
Awesome finds 🎉 . motivation for me to go hunting this year 😅
I would have grabbed the strawberry shortcake lunch box.
As a toy collector, specifically gi joe, awesome find. I swear these sales only exist in your location lol.
Two things: Always happy to see the amazing stuff you find, but also realize Phx, Arizona estate sales suck lol
let's go garage sale season!!
🙌 can’t wait for it to be in full swing

Ooh that’s good to know. Thanks for the bolo. I appreciate it.
@@ReadySetResell No problem. Keep the videos coming.
Great pickup
Thanks!
Awesome ❤
You are killing it in Chicago! Maybe I should venture into toys! My sells have plummeted on eBay!
You forgot the rest of the Mask Semi truck it was on the table across from it
“Dinobot” lol!
The parts on the frame can be super pricey you would be shocked
I recomend over pricing and wait for offers
WooHoo Ben✌️❣️
0:05🇺🇲Hawaii🤙
Indian Jones figure in mask bag?
I would have called his "we only do even numbers" bluff lol not a fan of estate sales they're basically doing what were doing. Youll get a deal here and there
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥wow
God bless you
Sweet a Vipers jersey! What state do you live in?
Illinois. I’m in Chicago
@@ReadySetResell Niiice! I'm from Michigan. Keep up the great work bro!
If you know everything will be half price the next day, do you go back?
Where do you find these garage sale listings?
Facebook, gsalr, yard sale treasure map, estate sale listings, community posts, etc. there are tons of resources available for people to advertise sales.

Vintage
Is that gi joe whale vehicle parts New on the tree? If so dude holy crap the veins are worth a lot
I have t gone through that bag yet so I’m not sure what vehicle they are for. I think that outside sticker set is for the moray though.
You should of got old dudes number. No telling what else he might have
As a Brit, you have an American accent but you have some slight regional accent I can’t place… is it Fargo land?
Sounds like Philadelphia area to me
Cincinnati 👍
@@ReadySetResell chilli on spaghetti type of accent, keep up the good work. You’ve got a good eye

@@HoonAgain wow
@@jeffwall3867 no worries bro. Have a good one
Paying with a card for $240 at a sale would be ridiculous.
Yooo first comment! Yet another excellent video!
💪
Did you say Voltron has all of its "Zoids"? What is a zoid? Do you mean Zords which is from Power Rangers? Voltron's separate vehicles are lions. 😂😂😂

@@ReadySetResell I just looked it up and learned something new. Thanks!
I like your videos but sometimes you move through sales to quick and miss stuff.
You missed a kenner Indiana Jones in German disguise figure in the mask bag worth a ton
I just pulled it out of the bag today to research it! I had no idea. Thanks for the heads up 😄
@@ReadySetResell I have to say it was a heck of a great lot at great prices. Well at least some 🤔 great prices others were kind of average do you sell on eBay if you do then what’s the name of your store? I’d love to take a look Thanks for replying.
They aren’t retro toys. Vintage toys. Retro is modern.
Phoenix reseller clone
Not really 😂
You should come and hunting in south Wisconsin with me. I’ve found some crazy stuff.
I did a bit of hunting around Milwaukee a few weeks ago. Got some decent stuff.
