    We Took Reselling to the NEXT LEVEL… Here’s What Nobody Tells You (E126)

    Episode 126 of the Finders Flippers Resell Podcast looks at what happens when a reselling business gets BIG.Johnny is back with Wes this week as Stewart sits this episode out, and Johnny shares what life has really been like since he and Lizzie moved part of Frizzy’s Finds into a warehouse and scaled up their WhatNot operation.The biggest lesson so far? A warehouse comes with a whole new set of problems. Johnny tells the hilarious story of 24 pallets arriving by freight when they had no pallet jack, no dock plate, and no real idea how unloading was supposed to work.They also talk about the jump from small thrift-store purchases to spending tens of thousands on inventory, selling as many as 301 items in a single WhatNot show, handling hundreds of outgoing packages, and how quickly all the little costs of scaling a business add up.If you’re thinking about buying pallets, moving into a warehouse, selling on WhatNot, or growing your reselling business, this episode is packed with lessons learned the hard way.👍 Like the episode💬 What’s the biggest risk you’ve ever taken in your reselling business?🔔 Subscribe and help us on our road to 1,000 subscribers!0:00 Johnny Is Back!

    Would You Risk $900 at an Estate Sale? We Did. (E125)

    What happens when a reseller finds an incredible opportunity—but taking advantage of it means spending way outside their comfort zone?Stewart recently spent more than $900 at an estate sale on four vintage 1950s golf tickets, including Masters Tournament tickets, despite having very few sold comps to work with. The gamble—or calculated risk—paid off when all four sold within hours, producing about $1,800 in true profit.But that raises a much bigger question: how much risk should a reseller actually take?In Episode 125, Stewart and Wes talk about calculated risk vs. gambling, tying up money in inventory, expensive purchases, fragile items, shipping high-dollar sales, scams and returns, platform risk, cross-listing, and how experience changes your willingness to take chances.We also finish with “Would You Risk It?”—eight reseller scenarios where Stewart and Wes have to choose BUY or PASS.Play along in the comments and tell us which risks YOU would take!👍 Like the video💬 Tell us your reseller risk tolerance🔔 Subscribe for more reseller discussions every week00:00 I Spent $900 on 4 Vintage Tickets02:46 Would Wes Have Taken the Risk?06:04 Risk Is More Than Just the Purchase Price09:45 How Much Money Is Too Much to Risk?12:49 Calculated Risk vs. Gambling15:01 When You're Really Just Hoping17:51 Should Resellers Stop Comping Cheap Items?19:19 Can Being Too Cautious Cost You Money?22:05 The Risks That Come AFTER You Buy26:16 Collections, Storage & Tying Up Cash27:16 Shipping, Scams, Returns & High-Dollar Sales32:34 Does Experience Make You a Bigger Risk Taker?37:50 Platform Risk & Why We Cross-List39:42 Would You Risk It? 8 Reseller Scenarios47:43 Stewart Gets the Green Jacket#Reselling #eBaySeller #Reseller

    Are There TOO MANY Resellers Now? Is Sourcing Getting Too Competitive? (E124)

    Are there simply TOO MANY resellers now? In Episode 124 of the Finders Flippers Resell Podcast, Stewart and Wes dig into whether sourcing at estate sales, yard sales, thrift stores and other secondhand markets has become more competitive than ever.We talk about the growing number of shoppers researching items on their phones, whether social media has created unrealistic expectations about reselling, how Google Lens and instant sold comps have changed the game, and whether old-fashioned product knowledge still gives experienced sellers an advantage.We also ask whether thrift stores are now competing directly with their own customers by researching and selling higher-value donations online.Then Stewart shares his experience sourcing the 2026 US 127 World’s Longest Yard Sale in Tennessee—including a disappointing first day, a MUCH better second day, Flow Blue china, vintage records, postcards and some early sales from his finds.Finally, we answer the big question: Is there still room for new resellers in 2026?👇 Let us know in the comments: Are you seeing more reseller competition where YOU source?👍 Like, subscribe and join us on the road to 1,000 subscribers!00:00 Welcome to Finders Flippers Episode 12401:34 Are Estate Sales Becoming Too Competitive?03:35 Why There Are More Resellers Everywhere05:12 The Problem With Early Yard Sale Shoppers07:39 Estate Sale Crowds & Sourcing Strategies10:41 Crazy Estate Sale Stories & Hidden Gems12:47 Has Social Media Created Too Many Resellers?15:21 Has Technology Made Everyone a Reselling Expert?18:22 Is Knowledge Still a Reseller's Biggest Advantage?19:42 Are Thrift Stores Competing With Their Customers?23:43 US 127 World's Longest Yard Sale Results32:24 Is There Still Room for New Resellers in 2026?#Reselling #eBaySeller #ResellerCommunity #EstateSales #YardSales

    HOW ONE RESELLER BUILT A 100,000-LISTING EBAY STORE IN A TINY NICHE (E120)

    What happens when a reseller spends decades mastering one extremely specific niche?In Episode 120, Wes and Stewart talk with Jason Spangler, better known as the Santee Swapper, one of the largest sellers of scouting memorabilia on eBay. Jason has built an operation with more than 100,000 unique listings while selling only Boy Scout and scouting-related collectibles.Jason explains how he turned a childhood patch collection into a full-time reselling business, why newsletters and YouTube videos caused collections to start coming directly to him, and how he evaluates massive purchases where most of the value may be concentrated in only a handful of items.We also discuss rare Order of the Arrow memorabilia, what scouting items resellers should actually look for, why most uniforms and common jamboree pieces have limited value, lessons learned from bad consignment agreements, and the importance of acting quickly when a great sourcing opportunity appears.Jason also shares the remarkable story behind several museum-quality pieces from the 1930s that recently entered his personal collection—and why some treasures are worth keeping rather than reselling.Find Jason under  @TheSanteeswapper  and at ScoutPatchCollectors.com.Subscribe for more honest conversations about eBay, sourcing, collecting, shipping, and building a sustainable reselling business.#Reselling #eBaySeller #BoyScoutCollectibles #ScoutingMemorabilia #NicheReselling
