Title: Got a couple decent units today
Post by: Travis on December 12, 2012, 04:26:05 PM
I got a couple decent units today. First one had a nice dresser, mirror and night stand along with a kids pine single size bed and mattress and a few other odds and ends. Overall everything was in decent condition. Got the unit for a hundred bucks and should be able to make $300.

Second unit was like freakin Toy's R Us but these people had money and bought the good stuff!  Looks like my toddler is going to have a great Christmas. In the back of the unit I found a fairly new 55" Sony 1080P HD LCD TV 120HZ and a 25" Emerson LCD. I have only gone through half of the boxes, but so far I can tell these people had money. I found a 9 MM clip with hollow points and an assault rifle clip, but I'm doubtful that I'll find the guns. Got this unit for $675 and I think the large TV will pretty much pay for the unit. Should be able to double my money on this unit and keep some great stuff for myself and my family. That's what this business is all about!

Now, if I could just get the manager to load everything for me.  ;)

Got the units cleaned out yesterday. It just reminded me of why I used to have a crew to do the moving. There are so many toys I just decided to sell them all in bulk.

Sold the two TVs yesterday, which paid for the units. Everything from this point is pure profit. The bad part is that there are a lot of common items in the unit that are worth $10-30 each. It's just going to be a lot of work posting all of the small miscellaneous stuff.

If it was easy, EVERYBODY would be doing it!   ;)

Yeah, I know, I just prefer using Craigslist and a lot of the stuff I have needs to go on eBay this time. I love to buy on eBay but it's a pain to sell on, especially if the item isn't in the catalog.
