Are Charity Shops Worth It For You & Your Reselling Business??

@kingontv5738 Год назад

A lot of the charity shops are selling the good stuff on line

@Steamytrainlee Год назад

Blimey George, finally found the upload function and blessed us with some content. Good watch as always, did that nice lady ever find any work do you know?

@M15Guys Год назад

07.20 - While you were pricing the cutlery, there was a shot of a small Carlton Ware dish (Australian design "Windswept"). Depending on the price it is fairly collectable !

@Rich-ll8ce Год назад

I'm not a reseller as such, but I do go to charity shops/warehouses, bootsales as often as I can but I only buy things that would sell for at least 10x what I paid. it doesn't happen often but it does happen, it's also the excitement of looking and finding the stuff.

@cassiecouzens4107 Год назад

Lucy and yak is a great pick up. The dungarees are awesome and resell extremely well.

@JoshLuck95 Год назад

I found that Guess Who in a charity shop in Bexleyheath about a month ago but the box was alot worse off than yours, I sold it for £18! Good find

@666JPF Год назад

Surprised you found anything at a Bexleyheath shop, even Dartford’s are above retail!

@JoshLuck95 Год назад

@@666JPF me too, had a bit of success at welling (near bexleyheath) but only this one thing at bexleyheath, Gravesend isn't bad

@bren70ssss94 Год назад

The Gap jacket is nice , well done, a worthwhile trip George 😊

@MasterofPieces Год назад

that metal gear solid sound effect did me

@CanvasAndCopper Год назад

Lucy & yak was an absolute find!

@cazzaa5012 Год назад

Ahh..bless ya for helping the old girl x

@christopherbaker5448 Год назад

Lucy and Yak decent, my sister loves that brand. Ive sold 3 pairs of their Dungarees for over £30 each

@marksimpson9815 Год назад

Had a look around Chelmsford last Saturday, I cannot believe the ridiculous prices in them these days

@carolinepajak4064 Год назад

Some really great finds George. I really enjoy watching your videos. Looking forward to seeing what you find at the car boots.🐈

@RetroReselling Год назад

Thanks 👍

@jackiesmithsmetaldetecting Год назад

I started to look in our charity shops, in a row only one was selling things at a great price help the aged, the others right next to it were selling way above including bernardos ( just up the road is a main depo for Bernardos much cheaper), i think they are seeing what resellers get and try for the same but it is not working, because not everyone who uses the shops are reselling so they are loosing out in my mind. My sister lives in Sheffield and stainless steal was there fortay it is all closed down now, so maybe hang onto the cutelry set it will be worth a lot more later

@heathermurray9939 Год назад

Charity shops prices would be more expensive if they had to pay all there staff good for the volunteers

@Peterwrayadventures Год назад

Usually if I have time, weather ok and im passing charity shops will have a look but never rely on it. A lot round my way just price items to high so items sit there for weeks and months. Odd charity shop has an arrangement that house clearance type people go in and get lots in backlog. I may find something once in a blue moon.

@craigrennie5458 Год назад

😂 straight to the underware tub great videos as always

@Wolves-WWFC-wolf Год назад

It all depends on the branch and the area. I can't believe the prices of your ones compared to the ones in the West Midlands. Might be worth travelling around

@RetroReselling Год назад

Exactly that! I've got to learn the shops to avoid & which ones to hit more regularly.

@Wolves-WWFC-wolf Год назад

@@RetroReselling yes exactly - then again cost of living in Essex is probably double that of Wolverhampton now. Been lucky meeting house clearance guys too I think they're genuinely one of the only ways to do it now

@user-xh3yx4gz7b Год назад

Lucy and yak is a great brand! Could easily get £50 for that mate

@shark1916 Год назад

Hi, I noticed in the past you sold singer sowing machines, what is the postage cost. Great content to your video's. Also Do you have to be registered self employed, when you earn over a certain amount.

@blazemkds Год назад

They are worth it but does take some hunting especially for me in Central London. I have recently found a electric metre for £10 that I flipped for £75. Yesterday I found a New Balance Limited Edition London Marathon bag still sealed in plastic for £15 and sold it already for £50. I think I could've got more for it, think I underpriced it. Clothes in charity shops are really expensive in my area though, hard to find anything worth flipping.

@yorkshiremonkey7576 Год назад

The cutelry is pronounced Veye ners and is a good quality brand .😊

@Lomie32 Год назад

Viners is a decent brand but not worth much as there’s so much of it, if you ever find Habitat cutlery it goes for a lot, also wooden handled MCM cutlery but you have probably sold that before. Loved that chore jacket.

@gailbenson1164 Год назад

I've been approached by the same lady on a number of occasions in Broomfield.

@RetroReselling Год назад

Oh really! Never seen her before personally

@authjw Год назад

Nice long video. That lady that came up to your car was crazy.

@RetroReselling Год назад

Yeah I'm never sure if they're genuine or not. I'd rather give food or drink than money

@heathermurray9939 Год назад

Look out for jigsaw roll up mats, I found one for £2.00 still in the box never used

@peterflaherty5653 Год назад

The Viners cutlery is pronounced like Miners.

@heathermurray9939 Год назад

This will be last week of sales before the new tax year starts 5th April as they want to reduce last year's stock levels for the new tax year.

@scottanderson7455 Год назад

They have cottoned onto resellers buying cheap and selling high. Sellers buying for couple of quid then charging £40 on their own sites

@funkyphil Год назад

In close on 3 months of searching charity shops in and around stockport i`ve actually bought nothing! Either the items are overpriced/in poor condition or just not worth the effort of flipping! I generally look for videogame related items/toys and shoes/boots. Small stuff easy to store.

@Andygb78 Год назад

I find that fairly affluent places that are on the edge of cities, or affluent small towns have the best stock. Sometimes some of the more obvious stuff might be overpriced, but I regularly find stuff to sell on. I Got five gamecube games for £1 each at the weekend at a charity shop in a small town. They thought they were DVDs, and because there weren't many people picking over the shelves, I was able to snap them up, due to the lack of competition.

@funkyphil Год назад

I'm just selling bits and bobs to make a few extra quid as I'm I've been on long-term sick due to neck issues. Mostly my own stuff I've collected over the years mainly Marvel and Star wars collectables.

@Andygb78 Год назад

@@funkyphil I'm just a part-timer myself. And source mainly from charity shops when I'm out and about. But I'm pretty sure you couldn't be full-time and source only from charity shops, as I go through the odd sparse period, sometimes a few weeks, where there isn't any decent stock at a decent price. But I think charity shops can be worth your time, if you're able to get to ones in decent areas. Otherwise they can be pretty disappointing, like you mentioned.

@janesdresser8843 Год назад

I go to everything a pound Scope clearance shop X

@petersellers7155 Год назад

Depends on where you live, Chelmsford being a bit of a hole it doesn't prove as fruitful as out of the way affluent areas, I do exceedingly well in charity shops, and make full use of the 80% off sellers fees weekends that ebay run, which seem to be every weekend currently

@ipodgooroo Год назад

I'm just about to go VAT reg. Are you on a flat rate scheme? If so, am I right in thinking it is 6.5% year 1, rising to 7.5% after? (For the sale of 2nd hand goods)

@RetroReselling Год назад

I'm not currently VAT registered. Looking to once Lenny starts school and I get more time to push the business more.

@James-gx6jf Год назад

Hi, did you take off your tax and also fuel for driving around to all the shops?

@RetroReselling Год назад

20% basic rate tax + around 10 miles at 30p per mile 👍🏻

@heathermurray9939 Год назад

Oxfam charity shop M&S donate things that never sold in the sales, so all new with tags

@marcwaters2600 7 месяцев назад

charity shops are becoming greedy

@RetroJamiesVlog Год назад

The difference between charity shops near me and you is vast 😅😅

@nigelmacdonald2963 Год назад

Not sure you needed to leave that whole section in to be honest George. If she was desperate then showing her desperation on here does nothing but belittles her.

@foxygirlmissfox Год назад

The amount of money she wanted was quite specific and you can't trust anyone these days. I think it's fine being left as she wasn't laughed at in any way.

@Luckyjo21 Год назад

she's a scammer, she asked me multiple times for money yet has a car

@mrbigmel3 Год назад

welcome to london.....begging at car windows

@MisterA-Vintage Год назад

Cutlery is a minefield! Lots of stainless sets, even by good makers are virtually worthless. stick to quality silver plated, older the better…or even better, leave it!

@RetroReselling Год назад

Thanks for the tips!

@shaneherd4130 Год назад

The women 😂

@stormchaser300 6 месяцев назад

a charity shop is supposed to sell stuff cheap so poor people can get things cheaper than a store.

@RetroReselling 6 месяцев назад

Missed that bit in the T&C's ....

@HerrEngelsman Год назад

Jeez that was some sob story by the woman

@crabapples1995 Год назад

Charity shops have become worse and worse. Can’t stand talking to the managers anymore, the “check out our eBay shop” or “no we put them all on eBay now”. It’s always the same sort of woman, with the same haircut and accent. 😂
