I’ve been reselling and watching YT reselling videos everyday for almost three years and I would be insanely hard pressed to not say that this is the best reselling video I’ve ever watched. This is pro level eBay hat reselling advice and a deep dive into vintage hats that most would never have seen. I’m speechless. And I really appreciate you taking the time to make this video. I’ll probably make hundreds off of it over the next several years or more

@EarlyBirdPicker Год назад

I really appreciate this nice compliments, I wish I had more time to make videos like this one, thanks again!

As a woman that knows nothing about hats, I have passed up hat lots that I knew had to be valuable, but I didn't know enough about valuing hats to take the chance. This is thr most comprehensive explanation of hat reselling basics I have seen on RU-vid. Thank you very much for the information. I can forsee your channel growing fast. Bravo

I really appreciate your feedback, it means so much! These are the tips I’ve picked up along the way, and glad to carry them forward!

@alteriormotiveswithcarrie8546 2 года назад

Wow, this is such a good video! I mean, the information is excellent and super helpful, I'm taking notes! But beyond that this is really well done, presented in a super clear, organized manner, you have examples for everything and you leave the pictures of the examples up on screen for long enough that we can see them---that's something that drives me nuts, when RU-vidrs put some really important info up on screen, whether it's a photo or text, and they leave it up for like a tenth of a second!--and your pacing is great, too! Thank you so much!

I'll happily take those hats that don't sell off you. I Bought a bulk lot from a wholesaler in the UK, literally all of the hats were of American brands and small companies but they all went like wildfire, I didn't think I'd sell a single one

Just recently learn that folks can replace the snapback part of the hat. Just use a old donor hat. Can be glued or sewn.

Thanks for watching! I’m interested in restoring too, lots of profit to be made there.

@williamfullman2639 Год назад

Check out the innopaw hat steamer I have a couple shorts and before and after videos I'm currently buying a second one because in winter you can clean caps and other hats

@conniemartin8191 2 года назад

Awesome video! You break it all down into sections/categories & it is very easy to understand! Is there a way you can tell if a hat is vintage… vs being non vintage? I realize that sounds so ignorant! I resell clothing & know how to date clothing but haven’t found that same information for hats/caps. Thanks for your time!

@EarlyBirdPicker 2 года назад

Thanks so much for the support! Most hats are identified vintage based on look and style. What is usually a giveaway is if the hat is made in the USA.

@EarlyBirdPicker Год назад

A trucker hat has a Snapback

@alaskangirl4502 13 дней назад

Great info! Question about the plastic “zipper-style” back part of the hat, is that desirable/undesireable? I have a vintage corduroy Budweiser hat with the rope and two mudflap girls with that type of back. It was made in Thailand though, by Otto Cap. I can’t find any like it and am clueless how to list it! Any advice? Thanks from Alaska 😎

@EarlyBirdPicker 13 дней назад

Thanks so much for watching! I always like finding the zipper-backs because they’re so rare. If you want, send me photos of the hat in a message on IG. I’m earlybirdpicker on IG.

Can i order vintage hats the Sport Specialties brand 10 pcs..But i can't send a picture.

@TheMillersEntertain 2 года назад

I have a 1990's Sports Specialties hat that has what I can only describe as having a raised outline of a basketball player on the side of the hat. The Team (Charlotte Hornets) logo is on the front of the hat and the raised / embossed outline is on the side of the hat and is the same color and material as the main body of the hat (white) - what is that called?

@EarlyBirdPicker 2 года назад

Great question, I’m sorry though I don’t know! My apologies!

@shaunm2614 Год назад

Just wondering if u or anybody has any advice. I have an old KangaROOS hat that I picked at a yard sale years ago. It still has tags with patent pending on it (I guess for a pocket on it) I can't find anything on the internet so I have no clue as how to price if I sold?

How do you feel about cleaning used hats before selling?

@EarlyBirdPicker 2 года назад

I do that occasionally with oxiclean. Thanks for watching!

@conniemartin8191 2 года назад

I’ve struggled with the same question bc the wear adds that character & ‘vintage’ look; then again, no one wants to wear an old sweaty hat. Wish there was some way to know! Just for the note of it - I clean mine!

@RobbinLynn23 3 года назад

Hi ! I just came across your You tube video. I enjoyed it very much. I was wondering if you have any Sportsman Hats in stock that were made by Charles Craft. They do not make them any more, but were made for several years. They are Sportsman Hats or Baseball Caps, made with 14 Count Aida Cloth for Counted cross stitch patterns . If you do please let me know. Sincerely, Robbin.

@EarlyBirdPicker 3 года назад

Thanks so much for watching my video, glad you enjoyed it! I have not found any Sportsman Hats. Thanks for letting me know about them, I will certainly be on the lookout and let you know if I find any!

@EarlyBirdPicker 2 года назад

Vintage is twenty years or older while retro is a less strict definition. Please keep checking back on my channel because I have a scheduled plan to create community brand catalogues that are sorted and alpha numeric including birth year and photo example. Grace & Peace Rafa

@Gloomypal-w6s 2 года назад

@@EarlyBirdPicker does vintagecap means they stop producing that same item?

@EarlyBirdPicker 2 года назад

Vintage usually means the hat is twenty years or older. Thanks for the question!
