what is going on guys it's finally cold
enough in Florida for me to actually
wear a jacket and a beanie it's like 45
degrees outside insanely cold for
Florida so in today's video I am going
to go through 25 different items in 25
different categories that are really
good to sell online all of these items
are items that we have sold on eBay this
year so in 2018 these are items that
we've actually sold on our account on
eBay so hopefully this guide really
helps a lot of you out maybe you'll
learn something about an item that you
weren't aware of I really hope it helps
you guys out and if it does please be

our next round of mentoring is coming up
on January 1st 2019 is when we start
that out and we take on 75 people and
pretty much teach you everything you
need to know about how to run a
successful e-commerce business we
started reselling full-time about four
years ago now and we started with $200
and now we've turned that $200 into a
six-figure a year net business and we
love to give back and teach people what
we know so if you're interested in
joining the mentoring group I'll put a
link to that in the description of this
video and you can go and sign up for it
if you would like to alright let's get
started with the first item so this is a
category that we love to get items in
the category is printer ink or toner
even if it's expired you can still sell
it on eBay you can't sell it on Amazon
but on eBay you can still sell it and a
lot of the times will find like good
printer ink sealed in the packages at
garage sales at thrift stores for cheap
cheap prices and we're able to get
really good money for it online so like
this example here is a HP ink cartridge
and we sold it for $43
I believe we picked it up at a garage
sale for like a buck the next item and
category I want to talk about is
calculators specifically Texas
Instruments calculators they sell almost
immediately for us on eBay and again you
can find them all over the place
so like this example right here sold for
I think $99 and it sold same day one of
the cool things about getting
calculators like this is that we don't
mind paying more money for them because
we know that they're gonna sell so fast
so at a hundred dollar sale we'll pay up
to 50 60 bucks sometimes for these
calculators because we're still making
profit and they sell so quickly so you
get in your investment back fast
the next category that we love is shoes
this is an example of a pair of Bali
shoes that we bought for a dollar and
sold for 75 dollars I believe and shoes
are great guys new or used we sell a lot
of shoes throughout the year they're one
of those categories that once you get
your knowledge up in them you can really
find some good deals on shoes and make a
lot of money with them so I would say
it's a great place for like new
resellers to start is by learning the
types of shoes that are out there and
then start looking for them and also
learning the condition of shoes because
they need to be in good condition to
command high prices but shoes is a great
category to know
here's another category that's really
good that not a lot of people focus on
it's Sporting Goods this is an example
of a baseball mitt or baseball glove
that we sold we picked this one up at an
estate sale for $1 and sold it for $35
really good margins and pretty easy to
ship as well so we sell a lot of like
baseball gloves baseball bats and other
sporting equipments even stuff like
snowboards and like skis and big
sporting equipment is okay to sell as
long as you're getting it for the right
price and you're able to get top dollar
for its because shipping is kind of
expensive on that kind of stuff but
Sporting Goods definitely get into those
sunglasses sunglasses is another
category that's been great for us couple
things with sunglasses that you want to
make sure of make sure the lenses aren't
too scratched up a lot of the times you
can clean them off and get them back to
like original condition but just make
sure they're in decent shape and then
more importantly make sure that you're
buying authentic sunglasses and even if
you like if you take a gamble on buying
a pair of sunglasses that you're not
sure are authentic you can go on YouTube
or Google and look for examples of real
ones and compare them to the ones you
have obviously if something is off if
they're not off
entik then don't sell them don't try to
sell them on ebay because you will get
in trouble for doing that but if they
are authentic you can get some really
decent money for sunglasses and the
other cool thing about sunglasses is
that most of the time they're cheap to
ship so you can ship them first-class a
couple bucks to five dollars to ship
them out another category that's cheap
to ship the items and they sell very
fast is vintage video games so stuff
like n64 like this one for example is a
super mario 64 cartridge just the
cartridge we got for $1 and it sold for
$35 so a lot of the times you don't even
need like the books and the cases and
everything that goes with it you just
want to make sure that if you can test
the games test them out and make sure
that they are working but older video
games sell very very well for us
especially again stuff like n64 Super
Nintendo even old PlayStation games you
can look them up fairly easily as well
on eBay you just look for sold items of
that exact same game and see how much
they're selling for men's bathing suits
or board shorts swim trunks they sell
very well for us obviously they sell
better frustr in the summer months and
with ones like this like Tommy Hilfiger
board shorts do you want to look for the
big flags on them or like bright colors
crazy patterns those ones sell for more
money and the older ones so the vintage
ones we get more money for as well so
like this pair we got for two dollars
and fifty cents at a thrift store and
they sold for thirty bucks fairly
quickly for us condition is a big thing
with these as well
make sure that there's no like rips or
tears or stains with them and you should
be good to go on this so swim suits are
a great item to sell on eBay here's
another category that's really good for
us to sell on eBay security systems or
security cameras every time we buy stuff
like this it sells very quickly for us
on eBay so and again it's another
category that we don't mind paying up
for like on this one right here we paid
$100 for this item and it sold for us
for two hundred and thirty seven dollars
I believe next day
so again if you're spending a lot of
money for items you want to make sure
that it's selling very quickly as well
you don't to pay a hundred dollars and
then have to wait like six months to get
your $200 sale you want to pay the
hundred dollars and get your money back
fast so you can put it into more
products but yes
surveillance systems very
category to sell on eBay collectibles
collectibles is a bit of a tricky
category just because there's so many
different things out there we like to
focus on the big brand so like Disney is
a good one for us to look out for mostly
because it's easy to value Disney items
it's a very collected category and you
can look up sold comps and find out what
the items are worth fairly easy and we
find stuff like this like the snow globe
we find stuff like this at thrift stores
and garage sales and auctions as well
all the time like this one we paid three
dollars for and we sold it for $35 so
knowing like the value of the items that
are collectible out there is pretty
important and a lot of the time like
people really enjoy finding stuff like
this so if you like Disney and you can
focus on like getting your Disney
knowledge together and you know you can
become the expert in what is worth money
when it comes to Disney collectibles
it's a good category to know we don't
know that much about collectible items
but every so often we come across
something where we can look it up and
buy cheap enough and get some good money
for it so collectibles is a good
category to know here's a category
that's been great for us on eBay and on
Amazon we actually usually get more
money for these types of items on Amazon
but they sell well on ebay too
the category is VCRs or VCR DVD
recorders those are the ones that are
usually worth more money but a lot of
the times people don't realize the value
of VCRs and you can get them for like
five or ten dollars and sell them for a
lot of money so like this one we bought
at a garage sale for $10 and we sold it
for almost a hundred and fifty dollars
which is crazy but again people don't
really know that VCRs are worth money
right now so if you can find them if you
can get a good source for finding VCRs
it can turn into really decent profit
for you sticking to use electronics that
we can find a lot of garage sales and
thrift stores car radios especially
stock car radios is a great category to
get into usually we find them for like
five or ten dollars and we get anywhere
between like 50 to 150 200 dollars
sometimes depending on the brand luxury
brands all the stock radios so better
for us and we get more money so like
you Mercedes Audi those are great brands
if you can find those radios but even
like the Fords and the Mazda and the
Honda you'll still get like 50 60 bucks
for them a lot of people ask us if we
test the car radios that we buy and the
answer is no we don't really have a way
to test them out but we sell them with a
money-back guarantee and I would say
maybe like one out of twenty will end up
coming back to us and then we just
refund the buyer and say sorry but we
don't test them we sell them as is and
most of the time they're working usually
when people replace their stock car
radio they're replacing it not because
it's not working they just want like a
better more souped-up you know after
Marcos radio so the stock ones are
usually still working and we found that
they sell for great money on eBay the
next good category is vintage band
t-shirts especially tore t-shirts that
are from like I would say the 80s and
90s we get a lot of money for those like
older tour band t-shirts t-shirts like
this we usually find at thrift stores
because a lot of the times people will
go to the concerts buy these t-shirts
wear them a few times and then they just
don't want them anymore so they donate
them to like a Goodwill or Salvation
Army and then that's where we find them
so a lot of the times we're getting
these shirts for like two three dollars
sometimes even a dollar on a good day
and we get like $40 plus for these
things we've sold vintage band t-shirts
for I want to say we've got like a
hundred a hundred and fifty dollars for
some of these ones like Grateful Dead
Led Zeppelin even like old wrap t-shirts
if you can find like an old Tupac shirts
those go for a ton of money some of
those are worth like two three hundred
dollars even if they're not in the best
condition still look them up see what
they're worth and yeah there's a lot of
money and like vintage music t-shirts
the next category is bags we sell a lot
of bags not just like purses and
handbags but also you know like computer
bags duffel bags there's a lot of really
good higher end brands out there when it
comes to bags so like this bag for
example we pay $10 for it at a garage so
it's just a laptop case and we sold it
for almost a hundred bucks
they're great items they
fast and usually they're pretty
available again at garage sales and hard
goods so we don't sell a whole ton of
hard goods but we probably should get
into it more because we get decent money
for it's a lot of people are scared to
get into hard goods because they're
worried about the items breaking during
shipping but as long as you're very
careful about the way that you package
them you shouldn't really be getting a
lot of items breaking during the
shipment process but hard goods are
great a lot of the times they have a
very reasonable price tag on them like
one or two dollars and sometimes you can
get upwards of you know fifty sixty
sometimes more dollars for them on eBay
especially if you can find stuff that
isn't really made anymore like this is a
Stein that was made in in West Germany
we picked it up at a thrift store
obviously they don't make stuff like
this anymore because West Germany isn't
called West Germany anymore so we picked
it up at a no this was I think garage
sale we picked it up at a garage sale
for I believe it was two dollars and we
ended up getting 45 bucks for it so it's
a good category to get into again don't
be afraid to ship the items out pack
them well make sure that they're padded
in there sometimes it's good to put them
in a box and then put that box in
another box so that it's really
protected and you should be fine guys
jump into hard goods if you haven't yet
because there's a lot of good money in
them now newer men's clothing sells well
if you're picking up the good brands
like the untuck it dress shirts for
example or like men's Lululemon stuff
sells really well new polar ralph lauren
stuff is selling great for us but I
would say brands like untuck it probably
one of our favorite brands to find right
now we find it at thrift stores a lot
again for that like two to five dollar
price range and most of the time
especially with like the long sleeve
button-down dress shirts we're getting
between thirty five to fifty dollars
depending on the size and the style of
the shirts so do your research on what
new brands are out there look for the
more expensive brands and then when you
see them at thrift stores or garage
sales or whatever make sure to pick them
up
alright watches is the next category I
love selling watches I'm a bit obsessed
with watches I have a decent sized watch
collection but I like selling them just
because they intrigue me now the thing
about selling watches
on eBay especially is we look for well
branded or well-known brands when we
look for watches stuff like like Nixon
for example like this watch sold for two
hundred and seventy four dollars and it
sold very fast it was new with tags
which was great but they sell very
quickly if you can find the right brands
when it comes to vintage watches you
want to look out for those like old
school
Cassio's and old school Timex watches
especially like I've seen those old ones
with the calculator on them look the old
calculator watches some of those things
go for like 150 200 dollars so if you
see them at garage sales or whatever
make sure that you pick them up be
careful sinking too much money into
watches don't go and spend like you know
five thousand dollars on a Rolex and try
to sell it for six thousand dollars
unless you're ready to get into stuff
like that because it's it's a lot of
money to put into one item in particular
I find it's better to stay with the non
luxury watches that we can get for you
know five ten fifteen dollars and then
sell for $100 plus another interesting
category is plushies or those plush toys
funny enough a lot of people collect
them or buy them as gifts for their kids
or whatever they're doing with them but
like again categories like Disney or
look for the the hot plush that's out
right now and try to find them at you
know garage sales I would say or the
best place to find plushies it's about
the only like new kids toys that we like
to buy just because they're they're soft
they're easy to ship so you don't have
to worry about anything breaking and
most of the time we can just like throw
them in a poly bag and shift them first
class and then the other thing is
especially at garage sales people aren't
selling their plush toys for $500
they're usually asking like 50 cents for
their pledge toy so the margins are
great if you could pay 50 cents for
something even if you're only selling it
for like 25 30 bucks that's a great
great margin so plush toys yeah the next
category I want to talk about is hats
snap back strap backs beanies hats are
awesome to sell online especially on
eBay
but they've been moving well on the apps
as well like Grail door what is some of
the other
grail' they're deep up or Poshmark
there's a lot of apps out there that you
can sell hats on
we still list them on eBay and we get
decent money for them on eBay but when
it comes to hats you want to look out
for the older ones one good tip is to
look out for 100% wool hats we found
that 100% wool hats sell for a lot of
money especially the sports ones because
usually that means that they're vintage
if they're 100 percent wool and some of
those hats can go for like oh my gosh
they can go for so much money 50 60 $100
there's even really collectible
categories within hats like vintage John
Deere for example there is vintage John
Deere hats worth literally hundreds and
hundreds of dollars so if you see like
an old school looking John Deere hat
pick it up one hundred percent of the
time I'm not sure exactly why but that's
just a category that's like people will
go out of their way to find the old John
Deere hats I've seen prices on them for
like a thousand dollars so if you see
something like that make sure you pick
it up but hats are great they're not
hard to ship make sure that you pad them
well put them in a box and you can still
usually ship them first-class so that's
hats are great now when it comes to like
the big-name vintage clothing items like
Tommy Hilfiger Polo Ralph Lauren you
want to make sure you're buying the
right items you don't want to just buy
every Tommy piece or every polo piece
that you come across one thing that we
found that works well is to look for big
spell out graphic so big ones that say
polo on them or Tommy Hilfiger on them
or look for color-block bright colors
crazy patterns usually what we found is
like the more obnoxious the better the
faster it sells the more money it
commands so on stuff like Tommy Hilfiger
dress shirts we won't pick them up
unless there's something special about
them so like this one for example crazy
colors nice stripe ajaan
paid I think we pay like two or three
bucks for this at a thrift store and
it's sold for $28 so not huge huge money
but that's why I say like we pass on
probably 90% of the Tommy Hilfiger stuff
that we find at thrift stores or garage
sales
only by the crazy colors or the big
spell outs the stuff that is actually
unique they didn't make a lot of them
and very desirable online so make sure
you're looking for that kind of stuff
next category is vintage toys this is a
category that I love I love finding like
the old street sharks oh the old like
80s GI Joes or like in this case old 90s
Power Rangers these things we found
super cheap at a garage sale got a whole
bunch of them in a bin I think we paid
like five or six bucks for them I don't
remember but we sold this lot of Power
Rangers for $38 the cool thing about
these types of toys like the 80s and 90s
toys is that you have a lot of people
like like me for example that played
with these toys as kids and now we're
adults we finally have money and we're
looking to buy our childhood back so
there's a great market for it there's a
lot of people that are looking for these
type of toys and if you can find them
for the right price you can get a lot of
money for them the next category would
be mid-century modern we try to stick to
like the smaller type of mid-century
modern items like the set of penguins
borrow a set of penguins we took at a
garage sale for five bucks and sold it
for 67 dollars but we also know a lot of
sellers out there selling mid-century
Furniture a lot of mid-century Furniture
sells for a ton of money we've actually
found like high-end mid-century modern
furniture at garage sales for like 10-15
dollars we found this really cool coffee
table once for I think we paid like
seven dollars for it at a garage sale
and we actually took that piece of
furniture and we sold it locally at an
auction now with that obviously you have
auction fees I think we paid like thirty
percent for them to sell the item for us
but we only paid seven dollars for it at
a garage sale and I think we ended up
getting like three or four hundred bucks
for it so even the furniture is really
good as long as it's real it's got to be
like authentic mid-century furniture and
a lot of the times you can find like the
makers mark or the makers name on it and
that's an easy way to tell that it is an
actual piece from that time but
mid-century stuff is highly collectible
and I think it's one of those categories
that will will always be around you know
not going anywhere people have always
liked mid-century stuff and I think that
they always will so great category
vintage electronics so like voice
recorders Walkmans
or like CD players old CD players they
sell very well even like older like the
first or second edition iPods
we get decent decent money for those
things and we find them at usually at
garage sales for like a couple bucks so
people collect them for some reason they
like them so if you can find them for a
couple bucks at a garage sale and sell
them for 40 50 bucks why not
you know usually they're small - which
makes them easy to ship first-class mail
so if into electronics look them up most
of them have model numbers on them you
can look them up very easily and look at
the sold comps and decide if you want to
buy them or not the next category that
we do well with is tea kettles or like
kitchen stuff this is an interesting
category it has to be the right brand
but if you see like different colored
nice quality you can usually tell if you
like pick a tea kettle up if it's heavy
and like the metal is good and the
enamel around it is in good condition
usually that's an item that is worth
some money so tea kettles like this
brand new they go for like 120 dollars
and if we can find them used and sell
them for 45 50 bucks that's a good deal
for us because most of the time again
we're paying like 5 10 bucks usually tea
kettles especially are great because a
lot of the times people will get them as
gifts and not want them and just get rid
of them or they'll buy them for
themselves use them for a couple years
and then get a new one upgrade to a new
one and get rid of their old one and the
old one still has value so look out for
that type of stuff kitchen stuff knives
are great again just make sure you your
do your research
now this category is one that is
extremely good it's blank media it must
be new you can't just get like blank VHS
tapes and try to sell them when they're
not sealed but if you can find blank
media blank DVDs blank CDs that are
sealed in the packaging still blank VHS
tapes that are sealed in the packaging
they're worth money people buy them all
the time we sell a ton of them on Amazon
they move great on eBay as well just
look them up but we find them all the
time - for some reason like people will
upon them we find them at estate sales a
lot because back in the day that's what
you used to use to record TV shows right
I remember when I was a kid my parents
would put the VHS tape in the TV and
then set it to record a show like an
old-school TiVo so yeah definitely if
you could find these blank VHS tapes
they're great pick them up any blank
media for that matter so yeah there you
go another great category to put your
money into it and we're on number 25 the
last category that I'm gonna talk to you
guys about is sports memorabilia so
jerseys hats t-shirts pants helmets
goggles whatever you can find in the
sports memorabilia area is is great if
you could find stuff that is worth money
we like to buy the jerseys so people
collect football jerseys hockey jerseys
basketball jerseys if you can find them
now especially the vintage ones so
vintage starter vintage champion if you
can find the old-school versions of
these jerseys they can get really really
high up there in price make sure they're
authentic again there's lots of great
YouTube videos and Google tutorials out
there where you can see like what does
make a Jersey authentic but sports
memorabilia awesome category to get into
great margins and there's a lot of it
out there too believe it or not and
there you go everyone there's 25
different items in 25 different
categories that are great to resale
online I know we just talked about
mostly eBay in this video but a lot of
these items translate to Amazon and
Poshmark and Macari and blah blah blah
blah but yeah there's a lot of different
good categories out there hopefully this
