There is a thrift store on post that I visit from time to time. I just thought about it the other day and mentioned it to a co-worker.
I was thinking of buying certain items from the thrift store and selling them on Ebay.
For instance, I bought a white strapless floor length gown for $13.00. I bought it because every year there is an annual military ball. I also thought that I could give it to my youngest daughter for her wedding gown if she wants it.
But I also thought about selling it on Ebay eventually.
The thrift store also has other items such as books, DVDs, clothes and furniture.
You think this is a good idea?
From Thrift Store to Ebay?

I have purchased some items at garage sales before and resold them, but I had previous knowledge of the items and their ability to sell.

I have a friend who does this sort of thing, specializing in porcelainware, and she admits she's had a lot of items for YEARS and still can't sell them. She resorted to trying to sell them at my tag sale a few weeks ago at rock bottom prices, but even then, she didn't sell much.
If you figured out how many hours of your time you spent searching for just the right items to sell, along with your time posting them, running to ship them, etc., i'm guessing it'll come out to very little.
