It's just finding them - Old Adidas Trefoil tee's Retro anything I sell on ebay and was a power seller for a long time - however I found a few direct customers so I don't sell as often. I have completed 1261 deals and still carry 100% A lot of what I BUY are older vintage clothing items. & usually they're not cheap. |

I love going to yard sales. One mans junk is another mans treasure.

I've bought a few things there. 2 camping cots for like $20 for both of them. a couple of coolers. a really comfortable chari; designed with no arms, low to the ground and leaned back - I called it my 'beer chair'. Perfect for gaming etc.
camping stuff is usually had a a huge fraction of the cost at a store.

I like garage sales for books, music or games. My wife looks for fabric for her quilting/crafts (that shit is unbelievably expensive new). We are pretty picky about quality/price so don't buy a lot.
My favorite thing is to pick up newish books for a quarter each and then trade them in at the used book store for credit at half the cover price. |

Why would anyone pay for something at a garage sale that they can get for free from that person's trash the next day?

I put a nice 'working' lamp next to our elevator and put a sign on it that said - working / free.
It was gone the next day. |

Just put anything you want to get rid off in a parking lot somewhere west of 135th street, and East of the court house, with a sign that says 'free' and it'll be gone by the end of the day. guarnteed.
