Don’t know if it’s a smaller town thing, but I’ve seen these types of garage sales all around town my whole life.

I have been doing this for years. I made a good living until the dam pandemic hit. Now people are not having garage sales like as much anymore. Hopefully that will change soon. I have actually brought gold bracelets at garage sales for a few bucks and made a few hundred

NEVER look at the “for sale” price on eBay. People can list items for whatever they want to. Filter the results to “SOLD” items. This is what people really paid and will pay.
This. Also parting out appliances and electronics can be more profitable then selling the whole thing especially of it doesn't function but still has working parts because finding replacement parts online for specific items can be difficult.
I do this with reselling iPhones, I average out the last 5 items sold and use that price to sell it. It may not be what you want but always remember you make money on the buy and not the sell! Good luck!
And check the sell date! If a ton are listed, but its being sold for $80 every 2 months, it's probably not going to sell for you either. So list it lower or look for another item to flip!
Even if you manage to sell on ebay for a profit, your account will get shut down and you'll be banned from paypal for being underage (they check with ID) so a terrible video overall
This doesn’t work, let me break down for you: 1. Need a car and gas to find yard sale 2. Prices are not often “cheap” or in nice condition 3. Reselling it is a pain in the ass. Using eBay or Mercari takes fees so it is hard earning every penny. 4. This is a tiktok
They take 10% on ebay. Which means if you sell one single thing at 40$ you give ebay 4$ but you just got 36 for some trash. Also. On most weekends they have a "maximum 1$ ebay fees" promotion. So if you're worried just list on those days.

@Knobbler_gobbler lol well TH-cam recommended this video yesterday to me not 4yrs ago so ur stupid people still be commenting everyday on videos no matter how old the video is😂so And 4yrs ago things where still not that cheap to be 50 cents😂 Prices don’t change much in 4yrs soooo....like I said these prices r more like 80s-90s maybe early 2000s era not 2010s era 😂
@Knobbler_gobbler If some people are so desperate for $0.50 finds then even better 😃they can just wait for trash day every week and drive around and pick up all the furniture or junk people toss away on the side of the sidewalk even better cuz that shit’s free😱but ya no such thing as $0.50 cents yard sales in 2017-2021 or so on , but there’s plenty of ppl’s trash or hand me downs 🗑 or furniture they don’t want no more, there’s also dollar tree stores everywhere 😂there’s also Salvage army, and thrift stores and food banks that not just free food but they also give out free baby/kid’s clothes.... if some people are that desperate for free or almost free stuff just so they can sell over 😂
What they're selling at and what they're listing them for are two very different things. You can ask 50$ for that lantern all day, but if people arnt buying them at that price then that's not the same thing.
Easy to figure this out, you can look at sold things on eBay. You can also see how many sold in the last 90 days and for how much. Make sure you charge enough shipping, don't do free shipping, shipping is NEVER free for anyone. If you don't charge enough shipping, you may lose all you profit to shipping.
Yes, but it's a great starting point, because most kids that age don't know the actual price of the items since they've never had to purchase them. And since it is used, and as long as it's working, a kid could essentially cut that price in half, put it up for $30 and still make a really nice profit of $29.50. Sell 10 items like that and that's about 300 bucks. The goal is to teach them the value of a dollar and what its like to earn your own money. But I'm sure you knew that already
Everyone is talking about the 50 cent garage sale, but no one is talking about how you aren't allowed to sell anything on eBay below the age of 18. So even if you find something for 50 cents at age 12-18, you wouldn't be able to do anything with it to make profit.
Well, it is getting listed on eBay for about $60 for used. It's not just one guy there's multiple listing it at that price. And hell even if he sold it for $10 he's still making a profit so don't know what point you are trying to make...
You need to also mention taxes since that’s something you have to consider, at a certain amount you make on most selling sites they send you a tax form you have to fill out😍
Sure. And in the states income tax starts after you make something like $30k So I think I kid making even a few thousand bucks selling stuff on eBay will be fine.
@@Thisolddog96 you’re mixing up what levels are being reported to the IRS with income levels till tax is due. No matter what’s reported now, the tax you have to pay isn’t changing. You always had to report your income. You then pay tax based on that income. With no tax due till quite a while. Thus if you have $10k of side hustle cash and that’s all you made, the amount of tax you’re going to have to pay doesn’t change at all just because you might get a 1099 from eBay
This is misleading and amateur. Everybody on eBay thinks what they’re selling is valuable. If you want to see how much something is really worth on eBay change filter to concluded bids. Something is only as valuable as what someone is willing to pay.
Yes, so don’t be an idiot and expect to sell an old notebook for a fortune. But study closed auctions and see how much various objects are selling for. Things like old jewelry can sell cheap or bring surprisingly big money. You have to have an eye for what’s going to sell and you have to be willing to educate yourself a little bit. Don’t be lazy or you’ll never make any money obviously. I sold a couple of old paintings that I hated for several hundred each. You never know with things like art. Some people like bad art.
The thing is I live in a place where yard sales aren’t popular and if you would wanna go to let’s say a boot sale you would have to go to a certain place and on a certain date.
Ive seen one or two in Germany. But its very rare. I mean... Who would sit in the sun or in the cold the whole day only to make 3 - 8 Euros if you sell enough. Its a waste of time.
@@liliththefirehawk796 items that were still for sale rather than sold items. Anyone can list an item at a million dollars. The question is will it sell for that?
I've been reselling for 2.5 years and started out just like this. I sold $50,000 on eBay last year. Electronics and toys have amazing profit potential at the yard sales
Surely most of the stuff that’s being sold for 50 cents is broken or doesn’t actually work? Otherwise why wouldn’t they sell it on eBay in the first place.
people like to just clean out their junk. They don’t want it, it’s not garbage, and eBay takes a long time to make sales sometimes. If you’re trying to clean out a junk room quickly you sell things for dirt. If you make things expensive then the chances of anyone buying it are unlikely
Getting rid of their old junk is way faster and easier for selling it on eBay. Deciding how much to price an item, making a listing, weighing the package, preparing the shipping, buying boxes, etc is just something they didn't want to do to get rid of it.
Because people want certain things and they are willing to pay for them. You can’t sell just anything but if you get to know what people want and what people collect, you can make money.
Some people are extremely stupid, my sister actually drives by college housing just to find all the expensive stuff people have just dumped out because they’re too lazy to move it, she’s found items worth 200+ and then at yard sales you can wiggle down the price if you know how.
I do this on occasion in high school I wanna get back into it, but I prefer Facebook marketplace or Craigslist just bc I prefer dealing in person.

All you need is a steady supply of yard sales that never happen, things priced unrealistically low and people on eBay to pay over the odds for those things within a week. Yeah, great tip.
And how am I supposed to transport myself to the yard sale? I guess ask your parents to take you but this seemed more like a “in your neighborhood” kinda thing.
12-18 you say-? I can’t even go to my own backyard without having my parents making sure I’m okay. Now tell me how I’m gonna go through my neighborhood and do this.

@@eduardoferdinandi3931 Resellers dont list items on Ebay based on a guess. Those prices are almost always at the average that particular thing has gone for. On Ebay, you are even given the average sold price at the point of listing. Our thing is to sell this stuff, and we know that this wont happen if we list stuff at absurd prices. What in the video may not be pure "sold" prices, but they are ballpark as to what you will want to aim for, with an option to take a "best offer".

That is clever but there are yard sales in my neighborhood like every 5 blue moons and it’s even rarer to find one with decent prices. (Greetings from Oslo👋)
Love living in Britain where I have never seen one of these sales ever in my life. Isn't this the same as just buying people's old things cheap then selling them to get some money? You could just find old clothes that don't fit or you don't wear and stuff that you don't use or don't need and sell them if the quality is good enough to sell.
Same. I live in the UK also. Usually old clothes I give away to a charity shop as they are good condition but nobody is going to want to buy a clone wars kids t-shirt for example.

I do this with reselling iPhones, I average out the last 5 items sold and use that price to sell it. It may not be what you want but always remember you make money on the buy and not the sell! Good luck!
And also look for used item prices. So you will probaly get less than $100 per week and dont forget to pay for a shipping.
And check the sell date! If a ton are listed, but its being sold for $80 every 2 months, it's probably not going to sell for you either.
So list it lower or look for another item to flip!

This doesn’t work, let me break down for you:
1. Need a car and gas to find yard sale

They take 10% on ebay. Which means if you sell one single thing at 40$ you give ebay 4$ but you just got 36 for some trash. Also. On most weekends they have a "maximum 1$ ebay fees" promotion. So if you're worried just list on those days.

@Knobbler_gobbler …with functional Coleman items inside the boxes? Or useless sketchy crap, or old clothes?
Exactly what I was thinking
Even if was 50 cents yard sales it was probably in the 80-90s not these days 😂
@Knobbler_gobbler lol well TH-cam recommended this video yesterday to me not 4yrs ago so ur stupid people still be commenting everyday on videos no matter how old the video is😂so
And 4yrs ago things where still not that cheap to be 50 cents😂
Prices don’t change much in 4yrs soooo....like I said these prices r more like 80s-90s maybe early 2000s era not 2010s era 😂
@Knobbler_gobbler If some people are so desperate for $0.50 finds then even better 😃they can just wait for trash day every week and drive around and pick up all the furniture or junk people toss away on the side of the sidewalk even better cuz that shit’s free😱but ya no such thing as $0.50 cents yard sales in 2017-2021 or so on , but there’s plenty of ppl’s trash or hand me downs 🗑 or furniture they don’t want no more, there’s also dollar tree stores everywhere 😂there’s also Salvage army, and thrift stores and food banks that not just free food but they also give out free baby/kid’s clothes.... if some people are that desperate for free or almost free stuff just so they can sell over 😂
Thats like in Arkansas..those guys are like 20 yrs behind
What they're selling at and what they're listing them for are two very different things. You can ask 50$ for that lantern all day, but if people arnt buying them at that price then that's not the same thing.
That catalytic heater is pretty sought after. I'm in the UK looking for one and they don't come up too often
Easy to figure this out, you can look at sold things on eBay. You can also see how many sold in the last 90 days and for how much. Make sure you charge enough shipping, don't do free shipping, shipping is NEVER free for anyone. If you don't charge enough shipping, you may lose all you profit to shipping.
Yep. Plus, people are stingy and like to low ball
You could sell it for 5 to 10 bucks for a huge profit gain since the items in the video were just 50 cents
Yes, but it's a great starting point, because most kids that age don't know the actual price of the items since they've never had to purchase them. And since it is used, and as long as it's working, a kid could essentially cut that price in half, put it up for $30 and still make a really nice profit of $29.50. Sell 10 items like that and that's about 300 bucks.
The goal is to teach them the value of a dollar and what its like to earn your own money. But I'm sure you knew that already
Everyone is talking about the 50 cent garage sale, but no one is talking about how you aren't allowed to sell anything on eBay below the age of 18. So even if you find something for 50 cents at age 12-18, you wouldn't be able to do anything with it to make profit.
PLEASE make a series this was so entertaining and informative!

Ok fantasy 50c yard sales aside, did you even sell that dusty ass heater for 50 bucks? Be real, I know you only got like 10 bucks for that 😆
Not even 10 bucks I bet when new ones can go for 10😂. Unless someone's collecting "antique" heaters
Well, it is getting listed on eBay for about $60 for used. It's not just one guy there's multiple listing it at that price. And hell even if he sold it for $10 he's still making a profit so don't know what point you are trying to make...
10? Its barely a dollar in scrap
@@Phurzt Dude just look it up yourself.
@@ninjanina1239 if it wasn't obvious. I wouldnt buy it. Why are you trying to get me to look up something I dont care about?
You need to also mention taxes since that’s something you have to consider, at a certain amount you make on most selling sites they send you a tax form you have to fill out😍
Sure. And in the states income tax starts after you make something like $30k
So I think I kid making even a few thousand bucks selling stuff on eBay will be fine.
@@codycast it was 20k they just changed it to 600 with no minimum transactions
@@Thisolddog96 you’re mixing up what levels are being reported to the IRS with income levels till tax is due.
No matter what’s reported now, the tax you have to pay isn’t changing. You always had to report your income. You then pay tax based on that income. With no tax due till quite a while.
Thus if you have $10k of side hustle cash and that’s all you made, the amount of tax you’re going to have to pay doesn’t change at all just because you might get a 1099 from eBay
I’m saving for an 85cc dirt bike, thanks for the idea, I’ll give er a shot.
so if somone turns 19 they can’t do this anymore? :(
This is misleading and amateur. Everybody on eBay thinks what they’re selling is valuable. If you want to see how much something is really worth on eBay change filter to concluded bids. Something is only as valuable as what someone is willing to pay.
There we go! Someone that knows what's up! It's not worth what someone is asking... It's worth what it sold for. This video is incredibly misleading
Yes, so don’t be an idiot and expect to sell an old notebook for a fortune. But study closed auctions and see how much various objects are selling for. Things like old jewelry can sell cheap or bring surprisingly big money. You have to have an eye for what’s going to sell and you have to be willing to educate yourself a little bit. Don’t be lazy or you’ll never make any money obviously. I sold a couple of old paintings that I hated for several hundred each. You never know with things like art. Some people like bad art.

My mom does this in Georgia. Its legit.
It depends where you live. In most countries, yard sales aren't a thing.
This is _amazing_ ! So wholesome and real. 😄
Surely most of the stuff that’s being sold for 50 cents is broken or doesn’t actually work? Otherwise why wouldn’t they sell it on eBay in the first place.
Also the fact that they don’t exist lol
people like to just clean out their junk. They don’t want it, it’s not garbage, and eBay takes a long time to make sales sometimes. If you’re trying to clean out a junk room quickly you sell things for dirt. If you make things expensive then the chances of anyone buying it are unlikely
Getting rid of their old junk is way faster and easier for selling it on eBay. Deciding how much to price an item, making a listing, weighing the package, preparing the shipping, buying boxes, etc is just something they didn't want to do to get rid of it.
Because people want certain things and they are willing to pay for them. You can’t sell just anything but if you get to know what people want and what people collect, you can make money.
Some people are extremely stupid, my sister actually drives by college housing just to find all the expensive stuff people have just dumped out because they’re too lazy to move it, she’s found items worth 200+ and then at yard sales you can wiggle down the price if you know how.
