Buying and Reselling!

in #life7 years ago (edited)

So my husband and I love to yard sale! Him and I go to yard sales every week! We wake up at 5:45 on Thursday's, Friday's, and Saturdays! We like to buy and resell, unless there's something we see that we want! We mostly like to look for jewelry like gold or sterling silver. One time my husband found a box full of jewelry for $4 and found gold necklace and earrings and sterling bracelets. And sold it and got $127 for it! My husband @drobinson is a mechanic, so if he finds anything he can fix, he'll sell it! He's very good at it! :)

Soo yesterday I was on FB and I saw Friends the whole series in really good condition for $25! I told my husband about it and he went to pick it up a few minutes from our house. And last night I posted it on FB for $55! And I sold it today!! I was pretty proud! So we made $30 on it!

Thanks for reading! Hope enjoy!

I no longer have the patience for this but a few years ago, shortly before Xmas, I noticed that sex and the city box sets were selling for £80 on eBay but a large store nearby had them on offer for £40. I bought 5 or so, listed them and they sold very quickly. I made several trips back to the store, buying ten at a time and reselling. I told the staff at the store that they were xmas presents and they thought that I had a massive family!!

Oh wow! Thats pretty sweet!!

Congrats on the successful sale

Hey thanks!

Nice. I refurbish wooden furniture and sell it. It is super fun, and has been pretty profitable

Oh very cool! That sounds awesome!

Thanks! Nice to meet you!

I LOVE buying and reselling! I live in an area where we have amazing garage sales and lots of them! We have 4 little ones now, but before children my husband and I did the exact thing. So much fun!

My wife and I have recently discovered reselling and have made some nice profits including a $3 antique doll at salvation army that sold for $150 and 2 pairs of goodwill skis that I paid $30 for and sold for $275. Our first good find was a new drill battery pack, we bought it for $7 and sold it for $50. The opportunities are everywhere!

That's AWESOME!! it's so much fun!!
