My friend's daughter actually worked at couple Goodwills near ritzy areas... According to her they have the staff be on the lookout for luxury brands and high priced items... they then send those items to their warehouse where they sell those online
I live in Metro Atlanta. Used to find nice purses, shoes, jewelry. Not anymore. A worker at one store told me they hold all jewelry back for online auction and have someone who checks all merchandise before it goes on the sales floor. True? I don’t know. 🤷
They may put items online, but they are not very good at it.
@@PodunkPicker Actually even better, he told me most employees despise how greedy Goodwill is and put those items out on purpose… like a big F -U to them
@@nabi5864 These employees are my hero's!
Wrong 👎
baby groot?
I am a Ebay seller myself. I have learned so much watching Thrift School videos. I actually enjoy his videos very much. He is entertaining and you learn from someone who has been in the Ebay and Amazon selling business for years.
I’d also say that ThriftSchool’s videos are a nice fast pace with no BS nonsense and goes straight to the point
Found your channel a few days ago and keep coming back for more. I love how you talk to us while filming, and I'm learning a lot from you, so thanks!
Glad you like it! And glad to have you :) ive been making videos for almost a decade now. Still have lots more coming every week
@@ThriftSchoolI definitely have a lot to watch! 😊
CT reseller here. I was born and raised in Norwalk which is a town over from Westport and I’ve only been to that location once over 12yrs ago. Seems like they did an updated renovation. I remember they did have high end brands like Gucci, Louis V and Michael Kors purses behind the glass up front at the time but I do see comments about employees now keeping those items from the floor. What a shame. Also I have a video in the 2nd store you visited in Fairfield (not uploaded yet) but I was there in March last year. That is a newer location opened maybe 5yrs ago and I did find a few items to resell and a couple things for myself. I mainly source clothing (vintage tees) but will be expanding in the near future. Looking to go back that one soon once I catch up on my videos. But great finds in the media section and great video as always!
Hahahaha, Fresh Beat Band.....brings back memories for me, my boy was really into this show for a long time. He'd watch episodes over and over on our DVR lol. So much so that I started to sing their songs. Glad the show was not on TV for so long anyway, lol.
Dear Seller, FYI twice a year in Wilton, Ct they have a giant tag sale called Minks to Sinks. It might be worth your while to do shopping in this area on those days. I think sale is May and October. Get there very early on the first day - it’s gets mobbed 😂.
J.J.Cale - fantastic musician - great find!
I have quite a few videos from this particular goodwill ❤ one of my favs!! I drive from New York to go there! I have found some really nice items over the last 5 years ❤❤❤
Lived in CT for 20 years..expensive state to try to live ..... closer to NY you get, the more expensive it is... new sub, good luck!!
First time subscriber 🎉 just started selling on eBay 2023…
Great video

Pro tip, if you drop service you don't have to fully restart your phone. Just turn on airplane mode then turn it back off after ten seconds. Your phone antenna got confused when transferring from one cell tower to another, and this gives it a hard reset.
The Brown Bunny is a WILD movie...
Should I watch it before I sell it?
@@ThriftSchool I think there is one particular scene that you'd enjoy 😈
When your service takes a crap try putting in airplane mode for a little bit, then take it off airplane mode and your service should get better, that works for me 99% of the time 👍
Thanks for the tip. Ill give it a shot
Of all goodwills this is definitely a gucciwill
A real gucciwill
That’s how our good wheels are in Washington state. We have two colors every single week. One color is $1.79. The other color is half price.
Wow that goodwill looks spectacular
It was beautiful
That editinggggg 😍😍😍
:)
That were goodwill’s won’t take any printers that aren’t Wi-Fi. I tried to drop one off a couple of years ago and that’s what I was told. That’s why they monitor the drop off.
Nice to see the same stuff in nicer stores! The only difference is a nicer layout.
Just because a GW is in an expensive area means NOTHING! They may have higher dollar items donated there, but all the best items don’t make it to the sales floor. Corporate instead directs them to send those items in to be sold on the goodwill finds website. I live in one of the most expensive areas in the country and have made friends with local GW managers and have actually seen the printouts showing exactly what brands and such MUST be sent to corporate. The stuff that makes it to the floor is mid range at best, and the rest is literally junk. It’s pretty infuriating!
when your Samsung does that do you try airplane mode on and off that would be faster? Mine did that made me switch to a pixel lol.
Interesting to see what rich people donate!
Truly the Gucci-est of wills ❤❤
How do you actually test VHS for Amazon? Do you watch the entire thing or do you fast forward it?
I live near to Goodwill’s in very affluent areas of southern California, and they do not have a plethora of high-end stuff. I actually see big taking a lot of the donated items away.
I visited that GW about 6 years ago. It's definitely bougie and close to NYC. I wasn't impressed. It was very clean. More like an organized T.J. Maxx, then a regular GW.
Pretty much, yea. I wouldnt go out of my way for it, but if im in the area its a nice stop
Dude! You were down my way!!! You should've gone to the Norwalk and Stamford stores, too!!!
@@rcec1995 The Goodwill in the Shippan area is much better than the one on West Broad Street in Stamford.
@@sherrycohen1824 oh, I agree 100% and, the Shippan one is better than Norwalk, too!
I have hit up that goodwill lot of good honey holes in the nutmeg state
The only time I will pay a bigger price for some thing is if I’m going to keep it course I don’t resell. I have stuff on marketplace but that’s going nowhere. I have to really really like it in order to buy it at a higher price.
I live near Avon, CT. Same deal.
The staff gets first dibs.. it’s a multi billion dollar for profit
You May as well shop at regular stores
Not true, you can't buy stuff on the floor the first two hours it's out and you aren't allowed to piece items you plan to buy
@@VelaN0va thank you ! Might depend on your area tho.
Still for huge profit , not charity
@@bunnybubs757 oh yeah 100% agree
I work at goodwill, all the good stuff is put online and the junk is sent out for people to buy (with maybe a few good things, not sure how it is around your area)
9:52 they have a sopranos cd?
I have a question. what is your limit on rank to send it o FBA? I usually only send in DVDs and cds ranked 100,000 or less
That Westport store is a cash cow for shopgoodwill.
Oh, I had no clue. Still some decent stuff in store, but im sure they pull all the really Bougie stuff and put it online
Can someone tell me the best bar code scanner app your using? Is there a good free app for iPhone or should I pay for one? Just starting in the thrift game. TIA
7:02 into this video. You definitely missed those POM wonderful glasses. A pair can sell for $25.00 looks like there was at least 6 of more on the shelf.
What happened to those Faherty shirts?
Airplane mode resets your bars without restarting phone FYI
Surprised to see The Brown Bunny in the thrift store
Never heard of it. Watched a trailer and still have no idea what its about lol
It's notoriously known for one particular scene that likely hurt the actress' career. If you read the wiki page for it you'll understand lol@@ThriftSchool
That bobile head was a Funko pop
It was pretty cool
0:17🇺🇲Hawaii🤙
I live in Cincinnati Ohio and our thrift stores or more like junk stores .If they do have anything decent the prices are ungodly ! I really think the ppl that run these places have lost the meaning of the word thrift!
When your phone loses service like that, if you pop it into airplane mode for about 10 seconds, and then put it off of airplane mode you don’t have to reset it like you just did. It’ll search for towers.
I’m about sick of these supposed charity, non profit organizations running up price tags. Not only that, goodwill employees will hide shit in the store so they can buy it later, which is essentially fraud. I’m making a documentary on this
🔥
Gucciwill 👑
Info on how to start that Amazon and how much it costs per month? And how much it costs to send in packages?
Lots of videos on youtube on how to start. Its $39.99 a month. Packages range on how heavy you make them. But I usually pay around $12-18 per box. Each box can hold lots of board games and DVDs and Video Games and whatever you want to include up to 50 lbs
6:52 Were they seriously playing We Don't Talk About Bruno from Encanto!? I need to go to this Goodwill now lol
Disney?
Sound of music for grandma! Woody Allen for cousin!
Salvation army for homeless!
As soon as you said blue tags are 50 % off I said, are you sure?? Lol
Lol. That will forever haunt me
Man it's good to see video games back at goodwill hopefully they bring it back at all stores
printers 90% of the time have clogged printer bar from sitting idle
If you think this place is good, you should see Vegas Goodwill. Puts this place to shame
The tapple is selling at Walmart for $14
A few months ago they were sold out everywhere and going for huge markups online. The price has since stabilized.
@@ThriftSchool Oh wow. I had no idea. That’s what social media will do lol.
They need to rethink on clothing price. Rolls of clothes.
Respect the grind, but you went to a rich Goodwill and bought the same things you would buy at any other GW. Do you plan on expanding your knowledge from consumer electronics, board games and video games?
As I showed in the video, there weren't many items that differed from a normal goodwill. Clothing was overpriced. Hard goods were junk and I could have scooped up some printers but I already have a backlog of electronics that I need to test. It takes a lot of time to source, film, edit, list, pack and ship. I have to be picky with what I buy at the moment since I am low on space.
I wouldn't buy from a 69% rated Amazon seller myself.
I wouldnt either, but lots of people never check the ratings and get screwed
🐨
Demographics, poorer the neighborhood cheaper things are but brand name not common
Do not shop at goodwill, it is a scan
It’s because the Nutcracker in the nutcracker was a mouse
Never seen it lol. I should
Put your phone on airplane mode for 10 sec and then turn it off and your service will reset
Beavis and Butthead Do America
The CEO at goodwill makes over 20 million a year, goodwill is a scam
Your channel is cool but you don’t show what you sold the stuff for so kinda useless
That comment is kinda useless 🤷♀️ he just did a video on what sold recently, check it out!
Stop shippoat goodwill, they are not there for the peopl, remember, the CEO ALONE makes over 20 million a year, do not shop at goodwill, it is. Scam
You move your camera too fast . Got nauseous
