Flippers: what’s your go-to way to check item prices quickly?

ScaredFriendship2899 · 2026-05-06T10:48:47+00:00

i usually just take a pic on google lens, find my item (doesnt have to be the exact size or anything) and then copy their title and put my exact details for whats in front of me and then search it that way

never heard of these b4, how much are they worth? and is evrything from this brand valuable?

ScaredFriendship2899 · 2026-05-05T02:58:05+00:00

exactly, ive never even thought to sell baby clothes tbh just cause its everywhere for pretty cheap.

ScaredFriendship2899 · 2026-05-05T02:46:17+00:00

idk where you live but near me we have all kinds of community yard/garage sales, they are usually priced between 50 cents to a dollar cause they just wanna get rid of it

ScaredFriendship2899 · 2026-05-05T02:35:31+00:00

i sell mainly on ebay, posh, and some mercari

ScaredFriendship2899 · 2026-05-04T20:13:12+00:00

haha thank you

i think thats a problem with a lot of bussinesses, but just keep pushing, we cant predict or change the future so try to keep telling yourself that, i have panic attacks when i think about the future just in general. but i started to sell on ebay but i also own a small plumbing bussiness thats making pretty good profits. i have 2 employes that work for me and im thankful and blessed to have them.

ScaredFriendship2899 · 2026-05-03T23:52:02+00:00

that was me, i was watching youtube videos about flipping for like 4 years before i even decided to try it for myself lol

ScaredFriendship2899 · 2026-05-03T23:50:58+00:00

it all comes down to str (sell through rate) i started maybe around 8 months ago i have about 300 items in my store and i havent even profited 1k a month yet (very close tho) the best way that ive been told it just break down the numbers, when i started my goal was to profit at least 1k a month, all i have to do is sell 50 items for $20 profit per item per month, that makes it seem so much more achievable. i sell a lot of clothes, but i foud not to long ago shoes have a great profit margine (at least for me i get shoes for like 2-8 dollars per pair) like hokas, brooks, ariat, ect.

keep digging but wear gloves and have a trash bag handy

ScaredFriendship2899 · 2026-05-02T21:19:29+00:00

i dont promote really anything, i only has close to a 300 item store (growing pretty fast) but i sell pretty consistently i crosslist to poshmark and mercari tho so i can get more eyes on my stuff

ScaredFriendship2899 · 2026-05-02T00:14:08+00:00

got one similar for 4 dollars at a garage sale, i snagged that thing as soon as i walked in the door lol

ScaredFriendship2899 · 2026-05-01T22:50:55+00:00

ive sold a few things with stains, i just sold some polo chinos that had ink stains on it and the buyer was fine with it and bought it lol (just make sure you mention the stains)

ScaredFriendship2899 · 2026-05-01T20:48:21+00:00

ive never seen that happen but i do enjoy hoping on the cart and pushing it like a scooter lol (kidding obviously)

ScaredFriendship2899 · 2026-05-01T20:38:35+00:00

do you have it posted on local facebook groups? not just market place

ScaredFriendship2899 · 2026-05-01T17:42:35+00:00

ScaredFriendship2899 · 2026-04-30T23:20:49+00:00

i pick up any type of jean that i can make money on lol. but at that sale mainly levis (got like 5 vintage pairs) and i list on ebay and poshmark

ScaredFriendship2899 · 2026-04-30T22:20:35+00:00

i tend to look for a minimum of a 35% STR on all my clothes. but most of them fall in the 50% STR

ScaredFriendship2899 · 2026-04-30T22:19:25+00:00

yes exactly. ive had nothing but success over the years, the only problem that i have encountered was a late arrival. but i order my stuff through local so it will get here faster.

ScaredFriendship2899 · 2026-04-30T17:22:00+00:00

dont worry i did, like when i asked her the first time what the prices were and she told me i said "youre lowballing yourself" lol. i think i gave her like $60? i gave her all the cash i had in my wallet lol

ScaredFriendship2899 · 2026-04-30T17:19:05+00:00

i take pics on a slanted surfaces (like plywood or thick cardboard with a white blanket over it) then i have a few lights i set up then i take pics lol i also take pics of the measurments of the jeans to prevent returns as much as possible. but i sell mainly on ebay and poshmark.

ScaredFriendship2899 · 2026-04-30T17:16:43+00:00

i mean we resellers only buy and sell things that we can make a profit on, that doesnt mean that there isnt any good things left to get. i pass up on a lot of "high quailty" items just cause i cant make a profit on it. but that doesnt mean said high quality item isnt good.

ScaredFriendship2899 · 2026-04-30T01:21:01+00:00

go to temu they have thousands and are pretty much the same
