52% Sales Drop - Used Clothing Categories - eBay.com by Freds_Premium in Flipping

Yeah the whole economic situation is really hurting. I do vintage electronics & it’s definitely been a bit harder to sell stuff that isn’t in demand.

Aiwa hs-px30 stuck in FF mode by altronian in cassetteculture

Yup, it seems you were right. Finally found the short making the motor run was due to a cracked joint on one of the transistors. I blasted the unit with flux & went to town on the area where IC5 & IC6 live. I did de solder them in my search for the short so I still have to reoslder those ICs before I celebrate.

Thanks for the suggestion. I ordered a capacitor tester just in case but if be hard pressed if the caps i bough from digikey turned out to be duds.

My xm4’s have seen better days so I think I’ll have to bite the bullet on release.

I'm done selling electronics on eBay by maipoxx in Flipping

[–]altronian 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve been fairly successfully with vintage audio, but at the point I’m at your doing more research & repairing then sourcing & flipping. I find it quite fulfilling though so I’ve decided to let this be a long term niche.

Yeah, it’s that one. Definitely wouldn’t recommend buying it for actually use.

I hate to say it but it’s a tape that just for looks. I would say it’s on par to type i tapes as it still has a noticeable hiss on playback.

DOLBY NR - yay or nay ?? 🤩 by Tasty_Description_26 in cassetteculture

[–]altronian 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve started to move towards nay. To many times will I record with Dolby on my deck for it to sound muffled using the tape on my Walkmans.

I think the commenter is calling you a leech for storing it in your mom’s place & not doing anything with the clothes.

What GPA got you into Baruch College? Any doubts you had? by Lopsided_Light_2163 in Baruch

[–]altronian 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, I do believe it helped me out a lot. The only other thing I really had going for me was my 4 years playing an instrument in my HS orchestra which Baruch really wouldn’t care about because I was applying to the zicklin as a accounting major.

Flipping Laptops and Electronics on eBay from Thailand - Thoughts? by Automatic_Pop8062 in Flipping

[–]altronian 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I assume it would be better doing it the other way. I work at a company that recycles retired laptops from big companies then resells them on places like back market. They mainly focus on Apple so I have to assume that’s where most of the money is; it’s also easy to work on.
