Using ONLINE Thrift Shops

[nodeal]

I know a lot of people hit their local thrift shops to find items that are profitable to resell on ebay, but do any of you guys go to the online thrift shops or online goodwill stores that are available through a quick google search?

I see very interesting auctions on some of these sites... the more popular items seem to go up in bids fairly quickly, leaving little room for profit on ebay, but I can definitely see finding some gems on these sites.

I'm asking because I am researching intensely to find nice items to resell on ebay, and I want to make sure I am dedicating my time in the right places.

ebay is the biggest and cheapest online thrift shop, people there are no just professional sellers, some people just getting rid of old stuff rather than throw them in garbage can.

sorry, I have to disagree with that... it was ages ago, now not that much.

I know better the Italian market than others and in here there is no way to get a good bargain, people tend to sell to make money not anymore to get rid of stuff they do not use.

Goodwill online is rough because before they add it to their website they research it and price it like we all do.

So not much can be had on their website because of this.

yeah goodwill is getting into the online game. several goodwill stores are on ebay and amazon

I still find items in many local thrift stores they miss or have no clue what it is.

If it does not have a makers mark for an antique type item they have no clue which is good!!
