    What was your best sale of the week? Mine was a $1400 Magazine Signed by Roberto Clemente. You can see it in my Ebay Store Linked in the Description!

    The Goodwill in South Hackensack, NJ is also like the huge Goodwill you visited in VA, its both an outlet store and a sorting warehouse for all of Goodwill NY/NJ (along with the smaller Queens location).

    My girls had Barney's great adventure when they were kids. That was over 25 yrs ago. They watched that so much I got to know all the songs by heart haha but it's actually an ok flick with a cool story line. I thought that might be worth a little more on vhs. Brand new one went for less then 15 bucks on ebay.

    Nice video as usual! Did I hear it right that you spend 500 on that star wars lego set?? I'm a lego invester/seller. And yes its a nice set, but with 500$ I would buy about 10-15 cool sets between 30 en 150$ that retire soon, spread the risk and making a nice lego portfolio. Much more profits in the end, way less risk with shipping/returns/scams, etc. Also you said this set it selling for 800-1000, that ROI for lego is not so great. We are always looking for about 100-150% roi after fees. If you like selling Lego, or want to invest more, sell more, there are some good youtubers such as Brickbucks, Wolf of Bricks, and many more that are cool to watch and provide great tips and knowledge. KDX bricks is a new one, really good info for money making with lego. Keep up the good videos man, your awesome!

      @dfuller81 ปีที่แล้ว

      If you can make $200-300 on a single transaction, that seems pretty good to me. The problem I have is the risk. I’d feel more comfortable spreading that risk over 10-15 sets, as you say. Of course, it’s a lot more work.

    I had a quick question, when you find good DVDs Or video games in goodwill, the price of new condition on amazon is 20-30$ but I always find them not factory sealed and when I click Used for condition the price goes down to 2-3$, what do you do with them because I saw in your videos you buy a lot without factory sealed ? Answer please thanks

    • @ThriftSchool
      @ThriftSchool  ปีที่แล้ว

      Totally depends on the item. If its used, most times its not worth much. Every so often, even used, you can find a diamond in the rough

      Your price is your price even when you send items in. You can also change the price once it gets to amazon

      If the price tanks you get less, unless you keep your price high and wait out the person who tanked the price.

      I called the first pizza place I saw with good reviews. Ordered a large cheese thinking it would be a normal size large. I showed up and the total was like $50 and I had no clue why, until they brought the pizza out. I paid, ate maybe 3 slices and then it went bad. What a waste of money 😅

      Very possible. I haven't profited 100k yet from just reselling. Ive done over 200k in sales certain years. But after cost of goods, fees and shipping, it wnds up being less than 100k. Luckily I also post on youtube and that pays a decent amount.

    Do you really feel comfortable selling such expensive stuff on Amazon?
    I sell Lego FBA but it’s mostly sets under $100. I’ve had lots of crazy returns (stolen minifigs, random parts returned, glued pieces). I’m sure you’ve seen some wild stuff, too.

    • @ThriftSchool
      @ThriftSchool  ปีที่แล้ว

      I sold it with no problems luckily. I did get scammed on 2 limited edition Nintendo Switches this year though and that put me out over $1000. I also got scammed on a book I was selling from a false counterfeit claim. Even though I had an invoice, Amazon didnt care and they "destroyed" almost $9,000 worth of my inventory. That stung.
