Today is my last day with my 9-5! It’s been 22 years and it was tough to say goodbye to the many friends and colleagues I’ve had the pleasure to work with. But it’s time for a change and for new ventures. eBay full-time here WE GOOO! 💪🏻

Incredible VHS find at an estate sale recently. Spent $1 and should bring in $100. My wife spotted it!

Do you think Monday will be green or red?

@freewayflippers 💯 I was up to 1200 listings last year and now down to under 800. In The good ole days of 2020-2021 I found so much to list my wife and I would list 20-30 a day. Now I list 4 a day and end and sell similar 1 item. It’s gotten much harder the last few years.

We went from 1k+ listings on eBay to 330. We got burnt out of reselling. Anyone else experience this?

Biggest sale of 2025! Bought this model airplane about 3 months ago. Spent $29 and just sold for $520. New brand to look out for - Guillows.

We don't do garage sales very often. But a couple weeks ago we tried it out as the weather is cooler here in TX now. Snagged a PlayMobil Ghostbusters set NIB for $3. It sold the same day I listed it for $80! Love those quick flips!

@BristolDividend Thank you man! Who would have thought hard work pays off!

@AustindudeE Congratulations!

I've been on eBay since 2000. But for 20 years I didn't do much - just some personal buys / sells. 2020 is when I ramped up and turned it into a business. First part-time while at my 9-5 until going full time in 2022. Just hit 5000 feedback in 4 years!! Stoked for what's next.

@Dividend_Dollar 3.25% on our primary. 5.25% on the rental.

For those of you that are homeowners What is your current mortgage rate you are paying?

Expanding your knowledge in reselling is critical. My wife spotted this unique vintage music box at an estate sale today. Turns out it’s worth hundreds! We paid $75 to make $300-$400.

Huge find at an estate sale today. Spent $29 on this brand new sealed vintage model airplane. Should sell for $500!

Tons of horror movies selling this week. We had probably 100 horror movies to list the last couple of weeks since that giant movie pickup in San Antonio. Strategic getting those listed first. 🎃 $350 just today with only 7 movie sales.

Wife and I drove to San Antonio for an estate sale. We hit the motherload of Blu-rays, DVDs and 4Ks. Snagged 75+ brand new sealed 4K movies for $2 each! Just the 4Ks alone will pay for the entire lot and get us into profit. Spent $900 on it all. 4ks likely to bring in ~$1,500.

@ThriftyProfit Wow that is weird! Haven’t tested mine yet but planning on tomorrow.

@AustindudeE Weird. I just got one too. Mine has some issues so it will be parts only.

Does anybody remember the 1990s video game system called 3DO? Only produced for a few years. Incredibly I found the system, some CIB games and some accessories at an estate sale this weekend. System is $29 into $200. Game Gun $80 into $200. That's just the beginning!

@akafacehots Complete lies.

BREAKING: According to just released ABC polling, 92% of Americans believe Donald Trump won tonight’s debate. This was a huge victory.

@chadthereseller July and most of August was so bad but the last week of August and into September has started picking back up.

Is eBay booming for anyone? I know Q4 is coming soon but I feel like this is the worst couple of months I have had on eBay since I started 7 or so years ago How is y’all’s doing?

Thrift stores have been so bad the past 5-6 months. I rarely go now - mainly just estate sales. But today for the first time in a couple weeks tried a local store. 🤯 Found these superb video games! $11 into $200+!

@chadthereseller @ReezyResells 🙏 thanks!!

@ReezyResells @AustindudeE

Quit being a gatekeeper!!! Who is one person in the reselling/entrepreneurship/makemoney community you think everyone should follow ?? Tag that person and RT this post for the people

Scored some old Planet of the Apes figures and The Fonz this weekend! They’re all still brand new and sealed which is wild being from the 1970s. Spent $43 for all and should be $300-$500.
