Part 3/7:
Upon inspecting the gold items, Mike reveals some challenges. Not everything stamped with a karat value is genuine, prompting him to verify whether certain pieces were mismatched or of lower quality than indicated. This diligence in examination underscores the necessity for resellers to possess a discerning eye for authenticity during their day-to-day dealings.
Community Connections
Mike discusses a significant influence on his reselling journey—the late "Old Man Hartman," who was instrumental in teaching him the ropes of the business. Hartman's mentorship highlights the importance of community and genuine connections that form in this industry. As resellers exchange information and experiences, they cultivate a wealth of knowledge that can guide better buying and selling decisions.
