Just wanted to let you know that I watched a video of yours and because of your video I was able to know a brand right away and I was able to pick it up at a great price and cant wait to sell it. Thanks so much, I am super excited.
Oh wow i didn't know you live near Baltimore! Maybe I'll run into you while I'm out sourcing. I love these videos that you do especially with showing the labels. Thanks so much! ❤
I’m shocked to see Torrid at #1, it always sells for me but not for great money! Zara takes forever for me to sell & I don’t get much for the items. I have never found LuLuLemon or Johnny Was in the bins but I’m still looking! Thanks for sharing!
Loving these brand videos! Trying to learn as many “bang for your buck” brands as possible. Especially since my space is somewhat limited…I will say I do sell a TON of torrid. Doesn’t surprise me that it’s a top seller. Sizes 2 and up do the best. I pick it up always if the price is right 😊
Thanks for the video. Most of the brands mentioned were expected but Torrid as number one was a surprise. I would like to learn about the Anthropology brands and the Aritzia brands please.
Torrid is surprising. I hardly ever pick it up. I did pick up 2 dresses yesterday. One 6X NWT and the other for me, but it didn't look good on me, so I listed it.
Hi Rebekah good morning happy Monday morning and I hope you having amazing weekend and I loved your vlogs and you are amazing Supporter and I'm proud of you
Every Torrid piece I've had has sold pretty quickly so that one isn't too surprising for me. Madewell is one I struggle to sell. I had a few pieces that went after a bit of time, but I've had so many that I THOUGHT would be good sellers just sit and sit. And I've only had one Lululemon piece in my closet that just does not attract interest. Zara is definitely hit or miss for me, and really depends on the piece. It's everywhere in my thrift stores because of where I live maybe, so I frequently pick up the interesting pieces. Great info in this list!
Wow! So interesting! I found a Vuori sports bra the other day and the next morning I posted it and it sold within 15min - it was so cute and I was hoping to get 1 wear out of it too 😂 it’s really good to know that it’s a top selling brand right now
Fun video and thank you so much! I recently picked up Zara NWT dress and it has been sitting there as well as a Torrid top.... crickets on that! Madewell jeans sitting there lonely in my closet too! A good rule of thumb that i try to remember is MOST things are NOT as good as you think they are! i learned this from an old antique dealer. Lane Bryant has always been a great seller for me but not so much lately and they also have a more trendy label called Venezia that I usually pick up for myself and if it doesn't work out I resell it. Thank you for your great video this was very fun and informative.
I expected torid at about number 5 on the list, and it doesnt surprise me its number one. THe great thing about torrid is that you can find a lot of it and often. Wide calf boots are gold. The reason Torrid does so well is that it is a mall brand but new these items are far from cheap....60-70 for a pair of leggings. Its one of the few plus size specific brands that leans into the edgier side of fashion and for us plus size girls out there that are tired of dressing like Maude from the golden girls its a staple in our wardrobes. I own a lot of Torrid and happily splash it and class it up with a pair of Tory flats or a cozy free people sweater. I would even say to lean into the basics with this brand. You arent going to make hundreds on these pieces but when you are finding 8-10 good condition pieces with each trip to the bins and you are flipping them for 35-60 dollars its nothing to sneeze at. Stay away from graphic prints and the cotton tees and tunics.
I'm actually not surprised, I love that on Mercari you can see how many views. Torrid is something I always hope to find because I know people are actively looking for it. I live in a rural area and was surprised how many of these brands I have actually sold. I like bread and butter that I know will move fast even if not for much.
Torrid always sells for me, even in just fair condition. Usually between $20-50 But I always grab Lululemon used to sell but now it sits for a while. I tend to skip it unless it’s a super popular style. It’s not like before where it would sell same day or within a week
Thanks for this video, Bekah! I found this super helpful and educational. For ThredUp, I'm actually not surprised that Torrid made the top spot. I'm willing to bet that if this list came from Poshmark, Patagonia would be #1. My Spidey Senses tell me that Zara ranked so high on this list because of the power of fashion bloggers. Every time I'm checking out what they're recommending, somehow, Zara pieces seem to squeeze their way in there! Maybe because of the affordability factor? 🤷🏻♀️
Some Zara pieces are surprisingly high quality. I found a wool coat last year I was going to resell but kept because it felt so nice and I found it in a picked over bin and it was nearly new. A lot of people pass on it too ☺️
@@lonesomebeetroot3376 You've brought up a great point! Something else I totally forgot about are the collabs Zara does. Those pieces have high retail prices like $250-$300 and resell for at $100+.
In my very limited experience with reselling, Torrid does sell - but not fast or for good prices. For example, a mint condition summer dress, NWT, typically sells for about 60% off the tag price. Again, if you want quantity, I think Torrid is great. If you are like me and would really prefer to only sell $15-20 and up, Torrid is meh.
The 560 relaxed fit is the best to buy right now ... pretty much anything relaxed or loose fit will sell pretty good right now 527 and silver tab are also good.. 501 has fallen out of favor unless they are 90's or earlier
I have found Modcloth dresses to sell quickly for me. PICK them up every time I see them when thrifting. Lane Bryant is not a brand that I pick up. Interested to see how that brand performs for you!
