this guy is so sweet.i feel like i could trust him with my credit card details
I’ve been reselling and watching YT reselling videos everyday for almost three years and I would be insanely hard pressed to not say that this is the best reselling video I’ve ever watched. This is pro level eBay hat reselling advice and a deep dive into vintage hats that most would never have seen. I’m speechless. And I really appreciate you taking the time to make this video. I’ll probably make hundreds off of it over the next several years or more
I really appreciate this nice compliments, I wish I had more time to make videos like this one, thanks again!
This video 3 years old and more relevant than ever. Great tips and info. Thanks!!!
I appreciate the feedback, glad it’s helpful!
I've been selling hats for 10 years. Right on video. Accurate.
Thank you!
I found this video super helpful thank you so much for spending your knowledge how kind of you
You’re welcome, thanks for watching!
Wow, this is such a good video! I mean, the information is excellent and super helpful, I'm taking notes! But beyond that this is really well done, presented in a super clear, organized manner, you have examples for everything and you leave the pictures of the examples up on screen for long enough that we can see them---that's something that drives me nuts, when TH-camrs put some really important info up on screen, whether it's a photo or text, and they leave it up for like a tenth of a second!--and your pacing is great, too! Thank you so much!
You’re welcome, I’m so glad you found this helpful. Also, thanks for leaving such nice feedback, as I make more content, I’ll keep in mind those positives that stood out.
✌🏼 Rafa
Thank you for being so thorough. It's appreciated!
You’re welcome, glad it was helpful!
Thanks! You were very informative 😊
Thanks I appreciate you watching!
As a woman that knows nothing about hats, I have passed up hat lots that I knew had to be valuable, but I didn't know enough about valuing hats to take the chance. This is thr most comprehensive explanation of hat reselling basics I have seen on TH-cam. Thank you very much for the information. I can forsee your channel growing fast. Bravo
I really appreciate your feedback, it means so much! These are the tips I’ve picked up along the way, and glad to carry them forward!

This video is super informative and helpful! Thanks! I’m about to list some vintage trucker hats and 90s bulls hats and I’m so excited. One of them is Sports Specialties brand!
Sports specialties always brings me great $$$$$! Way to go!
Great information! Thank you.
You’re welcome, thanks for watching!
One of the best videos I have ever seen
Thanks so much for the kind feedback!
Thank you, I didn't know where to start on listing my hats.
You’re welcome, I’m glad it helped!
I'll happily take those hats that don't sell off you. I Bought a bulk lot from a wholesaler in the UK, literally all of the hats were of American brands and small companies but they all went like wildfire, I didn't think I'd sell a single one
Fortunately they all sold!
Great video! Thanks!
Thanks for watching!!!
I just came across your video. Trying to learn more about hats. But what caught my eye is the hat you’re wearing :) I work for USPS and love different hats to wear like that. Thanks for the video!
Thanks so much for watching, I appreciate it!
I’m jealous of your finds. Congrats!
Thanks for watching!
Wow, great video Thanks 😊
Thanks for watching!
Nostalgia. I started my reselling business selling hats.
They’re definitely a favorite of mine!
Very helpful
Thanks for watching!
Just recently learn that folks can replace the snapback part of the hat. Just use a old donor hat. Can be glued or sewn.
That’s helpful to know, thanks for watching and adding!
@@EarlyBirdPicker Thank for teaching. Great info here.
Thanks, glad it was helpful!
Omg
Found your video and was so excited to see your from Oklahoma
Yes I am! Are you?!
damn I threw out so many of these vintage ones a couple years ago. Great information brother, thanks
Sorry to hear that!
Great video good tips I actually got into cleaning and restoration of hats once I purchased a innopaw hat steamer it's been good profit thanks for the video
Thanks for watching! I’m interested in restoring too, lots of profit to be made there.
Check out the innopaw hat steamer I have a couple shorts and before and after videos I'm currently buying a second one because in winter you can clean caps and other hats
I will, great idea!
Awesome video! You break it all down into sections/categories & it is very easy to understand! Is there a way you can tell if a hat is vintage… vs being non vintage? I realize that sounds so ignorant! I resell clothing & know how to date clothing but haven’t found that same information for hats/caps. Thanks for your time!
Thanks so much for the support! Most hats are identified vintage based on look and style. What is usually a giveaway is if the hat is made in the USA.
Nice hat man!! (Post office)
Gotta support the post office, they keep our business running!
👍👍👍👍👍
I have a 1990's Sports Specialties hat that has what I can only describe as having a raised outline of a basketball player on the side of the hat. The Team (Charlotte Hornets) logo is on the front of the hat and the raised / embossed outline is on the side of the hat and is the same color and material as the main body of the hat (white) - what is that called?
Great question, I’m sorry though I don’t know! My apologies!
I have a lot of 80s & 90s hats loved to know price range
Have you checked Price comps on eBay?
What kind of back does a trucker hat hop have on them please
A trucker hat has a Snapback
Can i order vintage hats the Sport Specialties brand 10 pcs..But i can't send a picture.
Great info! Question about the plastic “zipper-style” back part of the hat, is that desirable/undesireable? I have a vintage corduroy Budweiser hat with the rope and two mudflap girls with that type of back. It was made in Thailand though, by Otto Cap. I can’t find any like it and am clueless how to list it! Any advice? Thanks from Alaska 😎
Thanks so much for watching! I always like finding the zipper-backs because they’re so rare. If you want, send me photos of the hat in a message on IG. I’m earlybirdpicker on IG.
@@EarlyBirdPicker wow thanks for the quick reply! There aren’t a lot of videos on TH-cam regarding hats so I really appreciate the content. I will hit ya up for sure :)
Bro any tips, where do i find a supplier for specialties vintage hat? Im from taiwan. Thank you.
I’m sorry, no clue!
Just wondering if u or anybody has any advice. I have an old KangaROOS hat that I picked at a yard sale years ago. It still has tags with patent pending on it (I guess for a pocket on it) I can't find anything on the internet so I have no clue as how to price if I sold?
Kangaroos as in AFL?
Great video and knowledge
I appreciate it, thanks for watching!
20:13 are those Clt hornets hats still available?
thanks for asking, they’re gone, i appreciate you watching!
Hi ! I just came across your You tube video. I enjoyed it very much.
I was wondering if you have any Sportsman Hats in stock that were made by Charles Craft. They do not make them any more, but were made for several years. They are Sportsman Hats or Baseball Caps, made with 14 Count Aida Cloth for Counted cross stitch patterns .
If you do please let me know.
Sincerely, Robbin.
Thanks so much for watching my video, glad you enjoyed it! I have not found any Sportsman Hats. Thanks for letting me know about them, I will certainly be on the lookout and let you know if I find any!
@RobbinBowser I can’t find any images of these on Google - do you have a website/url showing a photo example of one?
Yes, I will send you a photo of the one I bought on eBay awhile back.
@@RobbinLynn23 I would love to see!
I will try an upload a picture of the hats I need.
How do you feel about cleaning used hats before selling?
I do that occasionally with oxiclean. Thanks for watching!
I’ve struggled with the same question bc the wear adds that character & ‘vintage’ look; then again, no one wants to wear an old sweaty hat. Wish there was some way to know! Just for the note of it - I clean mine!
Whats the diff betwedn retro and vintage hats? I dont know any shit about tgis and i want to enter this hobby
Vintage is twenty years or older while retro is a less strict definition.
Please keep checking back on my channel because I have a scheduled plan to create community brand catalogues that are sorted and alpha numeric including birth year and photo example. Grace & Peace Rafa
@@EarlyBirdPicker does vintagecap means they stop producing that same item?
Vintage usually means the hat is twenty years or older. Thanks for the question!
Hi, I want to ask you regarding some hats I am custom making. How can I contact you.

@@EarlyBirdPicker msg'd you on IG.

Weird, I’ve never gotten that comment on this video before
