Hey, I'm Tracy! I have been reselling random stuff since I was old enough to legally open an EBay account (back when Ebay was a lot more seller-friendly.) I cashed in on the Beanie Baby craze, have hit hundreds of yard sales and now mainly specialize in one particular type of book that I buy in lots (probably from Storage Auction folks sometimes!)
My "real" job is a freelance marketer, so I have a flexible schedule to put into my side pursuits.
Yes, I've seen Storage Wars and Auction Hunters...
No, I don't think the real scene is anything like this. I love sorting through kitchen and household goods as well as books, so I figure these items may be the types of things I could actually stumble upon.
I actually have been interested in trying a storage unit auction for a few years now, but one thing after another kept me from pursuing it, (Mainly my husband --- now separated)
Well now we're separated... I am really getting the bug.
I have space to store, don't mind backbreaking labor, don't mind a gamble and I have a passion for selling random junk.
I'm just kind of lurking right now, but I might be a buyer sometime here in the ATL suburbs if I get my nerve up, or find a friend who wants to go partners on one.
