    I really don't understand why you show the storage system that looks like that. you must understand people will be buying your clothes online. But after seeing the way you stored your clothes like that, people may not want to buy from you. all my pre-owned clothes are wash and place in a plastic sip lock until purchase then the go on clear poly bag. you must protect the clothes until they are purchase. having them like that in a basement i think. insect, or small critter will find a pocket to make a home. you may want to reconsider because your will get more clothes and soon you will have row of clothes next to each other. Don't take this feedback the wrong way I wish you the best success in the future.

    Love my Filson. I have a single Mack, a double Mac, a Mackinaw wool jac shirt, and a vest. Heirloom quality. As long as you stick to Mackinaw wool made in the USA, your golden. I also like Stormy Kromer, Bemidji Woolen Mills and Johnson Woolen Mills. WeatherWool is great, but their colors are boring. They really need to come out with some different patterns.

    @@vintagebyjacob Ok, lets to the numbers: *Working 5 days a week (off on the weekends), 4 weeks per month, 12 months per year = 240 working days. *Let's say you take off 30 days for vacation during the year and do no work during that time. 240 - 30 = 210 working days. *You say that you make $5100 per day? Okay, let's make it an even $5000 a day (after all, sometimes you sell slightly less, right?) *210 working days, at $5000 a day = $1,050,000 Do you really expect us to believe that not only that you make over $1 million a year, BUT you ALSO are doing all of this ALL BY YOURSELF?? And add in you have time to make KZread videos? LOL! As the current individual in the White House says: "C'mon man!!".

    Just going to keep it real as someone who does 6 figures in pre-owned clothing with a very high STR. I'm highly skeptical of the claim of listing 250 items after sourcing 300 at the bins all in one day. The return rate must be astronomical because that's simply front, back, tag, logo, wrap, done. No washing (bins notoriously have smelly/dirty clothing), no measurements (used clothing typically shrinks or expands depending on the wash history and size of previous owner), no title optimization, no price research, no item specifics -- you're going to have items sitting forever unless you just run all at auction. The prices you mentioned were very optimistic coming from experience. Not trying to hate, but this video is just very much unrealistic and not what one should expect. A much more realistic and profitable goal is to source 30 or so very good items a day and list about that amount per day. That's a manageable amount and is easily 6 figures with a low return rate and good customer service. This model is a good way to have thousands of items that will never sell, tons of returns, and lots of negative feedback.

  • @Quickdraw1111

    Someone posted in which she said: "My average sell price is $32. I list 25 a day and sell 25 a day. I work part-time and have 1 girl who takes my photos. I source and list by myself. In two hours at the bins I can get between 40-50 items." My question to you (because you are in this business) is: What is the likelyhood that someone can have an average selling price of $32 for a used article of clothing? Doesn't that seem VERY high for a USED article of clothing?

  • @criticalmass1884
    @criticalmass188420 күн бұрын

    ​@@Quickdraw1111 It's actually very doable in used clothing. You just have to be pickier about what you sell. But don't think in terms of "every item I get has to be selling for $30...", it's much easier to think in terms of, " 1) I'm going to sell a lot of basic, run of the mill items that are widely available but desirable ($7-$15/profit -- pay $1-$3 and sell for $10 to $20+shipping) 2) I'm going to find some items that were bad buys and I just break even on or only make a few bucks ($0-$6 or even a loss of money--just move them, they take up physical space and mental real estate...not worth hanging onto) 3) I'll get better at finding those desirable items that aren't saturated yet (several daily sales of $20+/profit items---pay $5-$10 and sell for $30-$50+ shipping) and 4) I'm going to find a few bangers on more rare occasions (pay $1 to $20 and make $30, 50, or even $100/profit.) The good items will bring your ASP up, but the steady, low profit items are the pulse of your business. The majority of clothing sellers get into trouble when they forget the main rule of reselling used clothing: cash flow is king. You're better off breaking even, getting that money and just buying something else vs hanging on for dear life in hopes your unicorn buyer comes along and pays up for it. The reason for that is because you get BETTER at knowing what sells and you learn more as time goes on, so you can redeploy your profits more wisely as time goes on.

    Thanks for the awesome comment! My business volume is very high volume and my average sales price is pretty low compared to most resellers. This model has its downsides obviously. Higher returns, low quality listing's that take longer to sell, low price points, but it works for me! Thanks again for the comment and have a wonderful day :)
