My name is Corey, I am a full time flipper/ebayer/collector looking for anything potentially valuable at garage sales, fleamarkets, and thrift stores. It's all about the thrill of uncovering something amazing. I'll bring you with me and give tips and guides on how you can flip like me! Keep on watching...you never know what we are going to find!
At 4:29 the lady had 8 Magiquest wands I looked into it and they sell sometimes on ebay in lots and could have been worth picking up if they were cheap. Something to look out for in the future :) I found out while researching too that there is a physical magiquest location in Tennessee, so you might see them more since you're in that area right now. I'm from the northeast so I know them from the Great wolf Lodge 😀
Hey boss! I live like 20 from hickory and I’m always going that way to hit up a few places. If you read this, you do great hunting different gems! If there is a way to contact you, let me know. Thanks!
Good to see you found us at Tri-cities I seen you picked a few good items you were lucky because there is a lot of competition here I setup on Sundays on the outside in row B mostly I to resell on eBay as well come by again like your content
bud when someone says 10 dont go higher... its your right to find steals at garage and yard sales.. your not ripping off a poor old man he named the price
New to your channel but I live in less than 5 mins from that flea market in Sevierville. I wouldn't recommend for reselling. I've been dozens of times and everything is really over priced. I think mostly just because of the tourism. If you're wanting to find personal collectibles then definitely check it out tho!
Yep, man defiantly missing out here in Canada! We have absolutely nothing like this here at all. Soooo many options for flea markets its nuts! would love this so much
Probably around 30 of them within 2.5 hours of me. It's a lot of driving, so sometimes I wish we had garage sales instead haha, but hardly any of those in my area. You just got to work with what you have I guess
What was the name of that Market? That place is HUGE! Your the person we all hope stops in our booth 😂 We are in Florida our daughter lives in London Ky been to the one in Somerset. I love Flea Markets
It's called Tri Cities Flea Market, 2nd largest in Tennessee! In my state of NC flea markets are dying off (3 already this year closed down), so I'm really happy to know big ones like this and elsewhere are flourishing.
I live 10 minutes away from this flea market. Been going there for 35 years. Next time you are there be sure to visit the last building on the bottom level. They have a stall there called Pop Culture (I think that's the name). Bring lots of money.
You are very lucky to be near there, I'm jealous! That place is a goldmine if you take your time at every single table, even in the buildings have good stuff.
Gotta respect the sellers who are wiling to sell cheap and fast. No point sitting on inventory especially when you're paying rent and traveling back and forth to the flea. They get cash. You get to flip the item down the line. Everyone's happy.
100%! Whenever I sell at the flea market that's what I do as well, basically give my stuff away for pennies, even leaving room for resellers on the better stuff. Make quick cash and clear my inventory.
LMFAO -"I don't know about them" 5 seconds later (when hes alone)... -"Yes I sell them for crazy profit" LMFAO, respect the hustle but why liying to that old man in his face, no need he already give you a way far deal, LMFAO
huh I don't remember saying that hahah but to be fair I do hold my cards close to my chest because you can't survive as a flipper by sharing your thoughts and the value estimates running through your head. And likewise, they don't share their true thoughts either. If sellers were honest with me I would have saved thousands upon thousands of dollars in my life by avoiding buying fakes, broken items, things missing parts, and items with damage that is not visible on the surface. The point is I'm taking the risks, so I'm going to get stuff as cheap as I can to minimize that risk. I guess I could go and offer people higher prices for their stuff whenever the deal is too favorable for me, but I would not make a dime in the process and I'd have to change this channel name to Flippity Flops
Xbox live hasn't closed, only the marketplace has. If you have the physical game you can still play online so people are still paying $25 for them as of today looks like. But they'll probably start dropping a bit I think
I will never understand how somebody can manage a DVD inventory that large and try sell it. Such a low demand, low cost, low profit - and so much work.
Yep it''s a mystery why people do that. Most sellers are giving DVDs away for almost nothing. I think it's probably retired people who are just happy to get out and mingle, probably don't care too much about sales I guess
You can still test the Polariod with expired film. Usually, the battery in the film cartridge will still work. I've tested with old film tons of times. You can also shoot 1 or 2 shots, then take out the film and use it in another camera that uses the same type of film.
@FlippityFlip Yeah, it is a super expensive film for the new stuff. Give it a go and give us an update on how it went. As long as the battery is good in the film cartridge, you can even "dry run" with the cartridge with no film in it. If you hear the camera cycle, it's pretty much 99% sure the camera works. Great finds, BTW 👍
@@FlippityFlip might want to look up expired film prices... its almost worth more sometimes. people love using expired film for the cool effects it creates when exposed
The drive has a lot of twist and turns coming from NC through the mountains, but its a lot of fun early in the morning when you're all alone at 5 am haha
Shitty part about eBay, you bought that controller for $2. The listing you pulled had sold for $15.99 (free shipping) so there goes $6-$7 just in shipping, then another 15% to fees $-1.50/$2. Then remove the $2 you paid for it you made a whole $5 if your lucky…
Yep it’s razor thin a lot of times, but for me the amount of work is nothing: listing and packing that takes less than a minute, and controllers sell fast so ~+5 dollars is worth it.
@Flipity Flip i stocked up a ton of stuff i was going to sell at the flea market. I moved to a smaller house and took a new job with too many hours to sell at the market. If you would like i live in Hickory as well. Ypure welcome to come by and go through it to see if theres some stuff you want. I can absolutely cut you some good deals! I just dont have time or room for any of ut anymore
This is crazy, I just found some Ravenloft novels at a thrift for 50 cents a piece. Also some old D&Ds and old WOC novels. Already made about $800 off a $50 investment and still have more books and offers to get to when I get off duty. That's a great pickup homie!
Man slow down on showing off every flea market in north and south Carolina. Already enough ppl hitting them. Your creating more competition and for some of the markets it's even worse cause you go once or twice and never again. Show off your normal markets but not the ones you try randomly
I only go to the ones that have around 500 ratings or higher on google reviews, the ones that are already well known in other words. My local flea markets that I show off in every single video have not increased in traffic at all and I find the same level of stuff as I always have there. Which means these videos do not have any noticeable affect on turn out or what stuff is there (I wish they did!). But regardless I'll be moving into Tennessee in the next few videos I hope. I only do that to keep things fresh. I'll be circling back to all of them in time.
@@FlippityFlip also as far as breakdowns go. I feel as if you should include gas and amount of travel time/ expenses in your breakdowns. From what I see being I am from the area you travel. Some of these markets have to be 60 plus miles one way to get to. As the one guy said about strategic buys. The markets you hit should be as well. I understand desire to see more markets. But what I have learned in last 8 years or so is that making genuine connections with sellers at markets is best way to find more stuff. Once people know what your willing to buy and pay. They will hold the items in their cars for you. Which I am sure is reason some markets arent as good as you hope. I have ppl at 2 or 3 markets that keep items in car for me until I arrive. Focus on those connections and stuff will find its way to you
@@ncman83 That's a really good point about making connections with people. Paying up for certain items will be remembered by the seller next time and they'll give you a good deal on something else later on for example. Some of my own best buys were the result of that. I need to mention that more often for sure. Oh yeah the gas is a lot and it's a ton of driving. I don't show the gas prices or the shipping fees, eBay fees, or mailing supplies costs because it's so much extra work that slows down and convolutes the video when adding in every single little detail (I did do this in earlier videos, and it was a chore). Plus I don't always know where or for how much I'll sell certain things, so making a general estimate is an easy way to streamline it for the viewers. Also the video ad revenue more than covers all the additional costs so that's how I see it. This is still a new channel so every video I'm experimenting with the structure/format to find the right balance. I want to be honest with people and give them a good idea of what reselling full time is like, but at the same time I need footage, so I have to make sacrifices in certain areas. I certainly would not be driving around to all these flea markets if I didn't have this channel haha
@@FlippityFlip its good ad revenue covers cost. But doing all this extra driving and extra stuff is gonna lead to burn out. Also you said you go to flea markets with x amount of reviews. For most markets they have been open for 40 or more years. So they will have that easy. Might want to read some of the current reviews. Thunderbird the one in spartanburg for instance 5 to 8 years ago was amazing. Now its awful and reviews could save you a whole day in the case of some markets. Also it only takes one viewer who buys the same items you do to watch a video and bam they get there earlier then you and boom you lose items to buy. I find amazing stuff daily. But I dont care to make videos to show it off. I know a guy who is a full time very successful reseller that only goes to 2 stores. His main business comes from finds at one store. So being consistent at one place is key. He told me and showed me sells to prove it that he makes a comfortable living going to one store 5 days a week at the same time every day and he sells the same things I see you selling
