Hey everyone, I’m back with another episode of Project Profit! Come along with me as I check out 30 garage sales. I’ve got some awesome tips to share, and I found some amazing pieces that I’m excited to flip for resale. Let’s have some fun and see what goodies we can find!
Project Profit is the series where I finds free or low cost second hand items with the goal of trying to flip them for some cash. All profits made from the series are donated to various charitable causes!

Just a reminder, just because something is listed for a certain price on eBay (for example) does not mean it’s worth that much. Ebay has a “sold” feature where you can see how much said product has sold for, if it even sold at all! Something is only worth as much as someone is willing to pay for it! In the end, it’s worth pricing your piece a bit lower than what everyone else lists it for and losing out on 10% compared to the item sitting in your house for months or even years just waiting to be sold and shipped (trust me). Happy hunting!

So important! You want to be sure something fits. I was trying to find shelves for over a kitchen counter for some storage jars for pasta and rice etc that were going to double as decoration, and one shop (as in, an actual furniture store, a chain store even) did not include the measurements of their shelves. Just the outside size of the box they came in (the box was obviously bigger than the shelf, due to wrapping inside the box, and of course the cardboard itself). Which was WILD to me. Like, how do you own a store like this and not include the sizes of furniture? That seems like the bare minimum honestly. I didn't buy from them due to that. I feel like many stores include way too little information on their products. I also needed to know how much weight those shelves could take, which is slightly less obvious information than size, but still pretty important for things like shelves I would think. Jars are pretty heavy, and so are books, but many shelves were really only meant for lightweight decoration. In the end I did find the shelves I needed, but it was a journey.

Super cool video! Just want to mention that styling the table top might give an impression that you’re hiding a stain or something… so always include a pic of the full top. (ALL my furniture is from fb marketplace so I say this as a professional 😆)

for pleather you can further smooth ridges with acetone since it melts the plastic a little. It prevents further peatling and months it. You could also refill the patches and use other pleather to give the correct texture. There was more to do that could increase resell profit

Little tip about that style of skates (that not a ton of people know about): The little knob on the toe of the skate is essentially a brake. It’s called a “toe stop.” So if you are rolling all over the place and can’t stop, stand on that and it’ll stop you. My sister has played roller derby for around 20 years and taught me how to skate in them. The more you know! Tiny tip: If you plan on using it to stop you, do it with pads on until you’re used to it. Doesn’t take much effort to make you also fall flat on your face.

Im very surprised those chairs sold for more than the side table.. in my mind those are old dungy school chairs that I now see in old community halls that would probably go for $5 most (even with the red paint) but i guess that goes to show who your market is (a city like Ontario might see them as uniquely vintage, whereas my small town would see them as cheap old chairs lol)

Styling is super helpful for visual folks in terms of understanding the scale of the item. Dimensions are necessary too, but for people clicking through looking at similar items, styled photos helps them narrow their search faster.

I feel like "collectibles" are really subjective and not a reliable thing to flip. Of course there could be people looking for specific coin collections or old beanie babies, but a lot of that stuff can be really hard to sell. Maybe it works better in Toronto and the GTA, but even electronics don't sell well where I live.
@CaliMel184

Totally get that y’all don’t include the price of things y’all already have to show just how much you earned for charity upon sale (we love to see it). But could y’all include the price of purchasing items (like sandpaper or varnish remover, etc.) as though we’re doing it as a novice in a separate graphic? It’d totally help some of us who get inspired by your videos understand how much it’d cost to take on a similar project!
