One thing that’s happened with Goodwill is so many people who have excess money now shop there. They drive prices up because they’re so willing to pay stupid prices. Goodwill is no longer for people who *need* to be thrifty. I try not to resent them for their money but they really have ruined it for regular lower-income people.

@BloomByCC Год назад

Wow!!!!! 250,000!!!!! I love that Roger is a cabinet maker but uses a fold out table for his inventory😂 the cobblers kids… you two put a little hope back into the world with every video❤

It was good to see how Roger pre-package his inventory. Goes to show that finding what works for you is key. Because you both are successful with completely different business models. Thanks for sharing.

The sooner Goodwill‘s understand that they have a symbiotic relationship with resellers, the better for both parties. You cannot ask eBay prices and expect that one person who’s a size 10 and wants that exact jacket to walk into your exact location. That’s where resellers come in. We go in purchase it at a good price and then resell it because our reach so broad. Otherwise, Goodwill is going to wind up through most of that in the landfill. What a tragedy.

@ladonalivengood2530 Год назад

@cindytalwar8438 Год назад

@dangitkory Год назад

Yep, we go to the Goodwill bins and they are loaded with over priced items that didn't sell

@s.fuhrmann Год назад

It's not just resellers either. I shopped thrift stores to save money. I can't afford a lot of things because the prices have gone up so much. I use to get all my furniture ,clothes and household things and walk out with a full cart. Now I can only get a few things.

@TheAntiqBoutiq Год назад

Absolutely! Additionally, my Goodwill does nothing to clean or condition the items and expects eBay pricing. Not going to happen. I will say they are using Hammoq to list online to overcome the issue you mention, and Hammoq uses AI which isn’t always correct. They are trying to squeeze us out for sure.

@mandy833 Год назад

Goodwill shouldn't be charging prices that they see online, they have forgotten their mission. Moreover, until they process, clean, and measure items and merchandise their stores better, they shouldn't be charging the same price as resellers.

@jillgott6567 Год назад

I am a small time reseller. I do not feel Goodwill or others need to price their items so I can make a profit. It is up to me to source items that have a good mark up or I can take a lower profit if I so choose. Or, just not buy the items in question.

@mandy833 Год назад

@@jillgott6567 I am also a part-time reseller. My issue with Goodwill's pricing extends far beyond how it impacts resellers. It is too expensive for the people that need to shop secondhand, and more importantly, less than 25% of the profit at Goodwill, for example, actually goes to charity. You can research the exact statistics online. Salvation Army is another thrift store with a darker side. When you shop in that store, they often have a recording telling customers that proceeds from purchases do not go to charity. I opt to spend money at smaller local thrift stores so that I can reinvest in the community and so I can actually see what impact the donations and my purchasing have on my community.

@BloomByCC Год назад

And no returns… so they want retail prices but free inventory, poor merchandising, no returns, etc 🤦‍♀️

@lillywiggles8264 Год назад

I was told recently it is privately owned now; but, who knows. "Goodwill" starts out as a place to bring "Good Will" to their neighbors; and was generated from FREE "good will" Offerings of the public. Now they're trying to compete with department stores. 🥴

Line punch bowl with any kind of pretty vegetation in your yard like palms or even hedge trimmings. The put a clear plastic or glass bowl inside your punch bowl filled with ice then set your salad bowl on top of ice and suddenly that large punch bowl doesn’t seem so large and your salad stays nice and chilled in a pretty glass punchbowl. When ice starts to melt easy to refill.

Just now watching this. After having seen that punchbowl, I thought, "Darnit, there has GOT to be something that can be done to repurpose all of these beautiful old glass/crystal punchbowls out in the world so I Googled it. Found the CUTEST idea ever! People getting old tall-ish vases, turning them upside down and then setting the punchbowl upside down on top of it. They do several in an area. Looks like a garden of glass mushrooms. Cute Cute!!

Great video. I really do not understand what has happened to the Goodwills…… I know me personally rarely buy from them because the prices are just not there. If I was going to pay that high price then I would put a few dollars with it and buy it new. It is sad because the things are donated, the majority! Roger is definitely a sweetheart! So glad y’all found each other! Cannot wait to know how the bowls work out as well other items!!

@cindywoelky7267 Год назад

Score! Karen great picks. I live in AZ where it's been 118° many days, 110° and over for over 3 weeks. But, I went yard selling, yep we are crazy fools here. Tell Roger at pravite warehouse selling a senior's items, there was about 2 dozen unopened milatery model airplanes. Origional prices $2.99 to $4.99. so they were old. They had them at $10 each or 5 for $40. I looked them up and they were selling for $35+. I wish I'd had the extra $$ to get them.

@SUZANNECARPENTER-ou3je Год назад

I love the big gold vase.

@YoucancallmeMarcie Год назад

Goodwill here will charge more than the retail price. No color days, no veterans discount. Senior day only on Tuesday. I offered a friend to buy all her collectible glassware, instead she donated it to goodwill a for profit company. I showed her exactly what they were charging for the items…needless to say we aren’t that close anymore.

Mystery Christmas candle holders you put on Advent wreath and light one candle for each advent Sunday, on the Sunday on/before Christmas all 4 candles are lit. The candles are sold usually in 4 packs specifically for this tradition and are short and chunky 🤗

@susank2463 Год назад

I believe the tea towel has exact translations of German phrases and the funny part is how their grammar differs from ours. Then when some German folk learn English, they carry over their grammar.

@mdsfo Год назад

@rosmariekdittmer-jerzy1044 Год назад

the 4 metallic gold candle holders 'made in West Germany' are made before 1989 when we were still divided into DDR and W.Germany. After 1989 the German products are marked with 'made in Germany' - Karen, I like to watch your videos, actually I walk right behind you and often talk you into buying this or that.

Now I am shopping for my needs. After realizing my daughter has so many needs, that I have shopped there for her.

I am glad you did well with the Royal Bank of Canada hats. I wondered if they would in the USA. Out of curiosity, did they come back to Canada? My husband was an investment banker before he retired, and a hat like that at a corporate event would have been great. Banks have a lot of fundraising activities for charities they support, in the summer. I don't know if banks in the USA do that kind of thing. The candle train might be kinda cute on a mantel as Christmas time. Someone is going to like it.

@podrosie5059 Год назад

I think what we need to realize is that Goodwill is not pricing stuff for us resellers. They are pricing stuff for people that can't afford to go to Nordstrom or Macy's or Dillard's. Especially when I was young in the 1960's we had to wear all of our clothes from thrift stores. We were the people that needed thrift stores. So we may not like the prices now but Goodwill wasn't created for resellers.

Goodwill was suppose to be low prices for people who could not buy in a store. Their prices are so high for the store. Our stores pull everything worth anything and put it on their online stores. It’s hard to find anything. I have checked their online store and most of the items on it should have been left in the store. I can imagine how hard it is for you EBay flippers. Love your channel.

@LannieLord Год назад

I am not sure if you have a thrift store chain called UNIQUE or not BUT: they are high priced - like Goodwill - BUT they now do "75% off / 50% off/ 25% off" on THREE tickets daily . Sometimes you walk out with a bundle at yard sale prices.
