Galaxy CDS Rocks and Flips! A Reselling Podcast Galaxy CDS Rocks!
-
- Affaires
My name is Ryan, and I'm a full time reseller, part time YouTuber, part time podcaster, a music nut, and an observer of ridiculous human behavior. I'll probably talk about all of that, but mostly about buying, and flipping, other people's junk! This podcast is all about my reselling journey. What's selling? Am I making any money? What's the latest tip or trick? And I'll also have updates and thoughts on various reselling topics that resellers might want to hear. And hopefully some guests too! Too much action! #reselling #ebay #mercari #etsy
