 Hey, Bolo buddies. Thanks for watching. Okay, so I have a little bit of a different video tonight I have Christy with the thrift attic or Christy Yeah, YouTube channel will thrift attic We have been sitting here chit chatting for I don't know like two or three hours and it's like one and warm So I'm like I already have on my sleepy face We're gonna talk about some Bolo some items to be on the lookout for and I typically do this You know a little differently, but I thought I would bring her in introduce her to you guys so you guys can all go Subscribe I'm not good at this subscribe. I can't do it. Anyway And I will link it down in the description of the video So we're gonna talk about some of her Bolo items and I'm gonna show you her channel And she's gonna tell you about herself real quick and then we're gonna move right into the items to be on the lookout for Okay Okay Well, like she said, I'm Christy and my channel YouTube channel is thrift attic And I just mainly have reseller related content I just show thrift halls and what sold videos and you know a few things shop with me videos here and there and It's just something fun that I like to do because I like sharing it with other like-minded people So that's kind of why I got started with it And how long have you been reselling? Almost three years on started on eBay so almost three years there and started Poshmark last May So not quite a year on that one. I'm trying to think I Well, I've been on eBay since oh five and I think I've been on Poshmark. I think I'm at about two years so Yeah, yeah last it's I will tell you I am loving Mercari. I think you should definitely try it I mean you've kind of convinced me so I might I've only kept it to two because branching out to something else Kind of scares me. I know and I looked into doing kid is in I think that's how you say it because I have children's clothes But I haven't I created an account, but I haven't started it So maybe I'll try my curry instead. It was I started a grailed account and then I'm like nope not doing it I've already got like Mercari Poshmark Etsy eBay like No more I can't do anymore. Well, I always sold the kids clothes on Facebook group pages And you say you know because you're only paying the percentage of the Paypal fee so it's easier, but I haven't done that in a while. And so I don't know I might branch out But we'll see Mercari for sure 10% freeze And they're advertising a lot so advertising like crazy on the YouTube channels, yes On some Poshmark related YouTube video and there's a McCurry ad before every reseller video I've been going to lately. Sorry. Yep. Like so, yeah, they're campaigning big time. Yep, and it's I mean I don't know. Maybe it's working. I know that sales have picked up But I bet more people are getting on there and selling because everybody's you know at home cleaning out their closets, too One thing you do have to have I feel like on Mercari is some feedback before you start getting that momentum Yeah, makes some like cheap stuff to start, you know, just to kind of get the ball moving. Yeah, yeah Okay, and I I do really well with toys On my car toys on eBay. I do you know when I find them good. Yeah, all right. Here we go Let's talk about the first item Tell us about this dress Okay, I picked up this dress at a little local thrift shop and it was only $3 I knew what it was because I picked one up back in April and another little thrift shop for $3 So I snatched it up. It's Martha's miniatures and it's a vintage They call it we're fussy. I think is what it is and they're very popular And it sold for $168 Dollars that was an offer I had I listed it and then immediately Got attention and I started getting offers rolling in like right away I think I even shared it on Instagram that had like four offers right off the bat Yeah, and I kind of rode that out in the next morning I woke up and I had like I don't know 10 offers and then I started countering at that point and someone sent me the 168 I think I had it listed for 195 so and it's hard to not take $165 when you have three dollars invested in it. Yes, I do have a Bolo category video on toddler dresses Uh-huh. I should go check it out if you haven't watched it But one thing you want to do and you can see here Christy did this in this picture is see how she has it fanned into a circle That is what you want to do if you find one of these dresses You definitely want to have a picture that looks like this Because that will help get you top dollar for your item So and that's right too. I've sold went to China. Oh, really? Mm-hmm So you've sold another same brand. Mm-hmm. It was a I sold it for 225 back in April or oh and it was freer and in better condition and This one isn't was in good condition too, but the other one was like pristine for its age And yeah, it sold within the hour. I like was going to bed and all of a sudden it's old So it says dress one is that like a one-year-old? Yeah, it's a one T is what it says in the tag. I've never heard of a one T Well, I think that's what it said is one year. Yeah, it says one year. Yeah I think it's kind of hard to see Yeah, it was different and because normally you see 12 months, but that well it says T1 YR. Yeah, hmm Yeah, that's interesting. Yeah Okay, tell us about this Okay, so St. John, I've only ever picked up shoes I've never found St. John. This was vintage and I found it in a really tiny thrift shop It had a lot of condition issues. Let's have a lot of condition issues. Yeah. Yeah, and I found two St. John pieces the the suit and the dress that I still have listed but This I had I listed it kind of high because I honestly couldn't find anything really related That was similar. I've seen suits and they sold pretty high. So I listed it for like, I don't know I can't remember what it said, but um, I Took someone sent me the offer and I had just watched someone's video saying that they had sat on a vintage St. John suit for so long that I didn't want to be that person. Yeah So I chose for the quick sale rather than the long tail cell So I thought about it like overnight I think and then I accept your offer because I only paid five dollars. They had they had it listed What was the offer? Did I miss that? It was $80. I'm sorry. I don't know good I mean look, it's cut this I know it has little spots here and there in a brick a chipped button and Holes from you know that knit gets holes really. Yeah But I know and I thought you know what with the condition and 80s fantastic Yep, I think I'm trying to get a look at the tag. I want to see what it Okay, there we go. That's Huh, I don't think I've ever seen that brand. I Mean I've heard of it, but I don't think I've ever seen a vintage Well, I know that the I've heard about the newer like the newer styles that sell really well So I had no idea if this was gonna do well, but five dollars. Yeah, that's awesome. I think 80s fantastic Okay, Tori Birch is for sure a bow low. Tell us about these. Yes Was at a big thrift store in Dallas because I was down there for something and so I stopped by and I found these and I think that I paid Yeah, 698 It's what they had them listed for and I was like, are you kidding? So I picked them up and they sold for full price of 85 dollars Yeah, that's those are fantastic. Now. Do you see the logo or the branding that's on the bottom? Have you seen the shoes where they're like flip-flops, but they have that logo in Like on the where it tees kind of Have you seen on that on the top? Yeah, I think that's the most popular style. Yes, those Almost didn't know that those were Tori Birch when I glanced and then I pick everything up though and look at everything But if they have that circle that's like metal on the top, those are definitely a big I mean, I think they go for over a hundred easy Yeah, but yeah, Tori Birch is definitely a good brand to pick up All right, I've never heard of this brand. Tell us about this Okay, um, I Looked up how to pronounce it because I pronounced it wrong in my thrift haul video Terry Rabbockton is how you say it But and the thing is I've seen this or heard of this before I'm not sure where But I just thought that they were interesting You know when you go to the thrift shop enough when you come across something unique, you know, because you're not Something that you always see so I looked it up and saw that they sold for pretty high now I did take an offer. I went back and forth with someone over there She really wanted them so I finally gave in to 45 dollars, but we went back and forth for a while But some of them have sold for more so I could have probably held out for a little more But I think it's just a comfort shoe. They're made in Italy. What what was the price you took on them? 45 Yeah, I've never heard of that brand so I mean, I don't know I've learned is Seeing what other people are selling, you know, and then I thought that most of it sticks when I go out thrifting, right? This is super cute. Tell us about this. Yes. I found that in a another They're sore like near Dallas Actually was a good will I paid either three or four dollars For it their purses are marked for that and I just thought it was cute And then I noticed it was Sam Edelman and I actually carried it for a little while before I decided so I like fringe And it was really cute, but it's small it's too small I have to have a mom purse like a big bag Yeah, I decided to sell it and I was actually kind of surprised it sold for full asking price, but it's So, yeah First I know awesome So, all right How about these? Okay, those little tiny thrift shop locally. Um, I just knew that they were old I couldn't find any information on them Other than they looked 70s to me So, um, I kind of put that in the listing They I paid three dollars for them I think so their vintage Levi's white tab jeans women's size 18 high high waist Yes, wide leg from the 70s. I put so they are a size 18, but because these are vintage I mean you can see the waist is only What 30 inches? Yeah, I can't see for no, um Yeah, that's what it says way smaller. So I yeah Any vintage stuff I get people are always really curious about the measurements So I make sure to have that on the listing But uh, they they sold for 40 That was another thing with vintage sometimes when you get an offer I kind of give in because It they're they take longer to sell so Well, I think also as far as best offer goes You know what you have in the item? It doesn't hurt to price your items a little high that way you have that negotiating room You know I guessed at the price because I couldn't find anything Yeah, I had so yeah, I mean I take offers on almost all my items. So It's hard not to Yeah Okay, so this is just um Actually didn't get this that long ago before everything shut down I found this for two dollars at my local Goodwill And um, I just happened to scan it on ebay and saw that a lot of them had sold like between 50 to 60 dollars So it's uh from 2001. Is that what it says? Yeah 2001. Yep. It's barbie's baby sister Uh, it says Chrissy baby sister of barbie swinging place by matel And I think the tub one goes for more money the one with the baby bath in the baby bathtub A bathtub. Okay. Yeah. Well, this I think would be a good mercury item Oh, really? Yeah, stuff on there too vintage. Yeah. Yeah Yeah About mercury right now. It's been really good. I know you have been talking about that. I it's so good Good Okay Is this the one you said was yours? Yes. Uh, so for my like first baby doll Is it hard to get rid of? Kind of because I don't know I don't really display the things that I my mom kept everything So I come by my hoarding nature like honestly, but I have um, my daughter's not interested and honestly I didn't want to like give it to her to play with because I was scared She was gonna mess it up and I felt like a collector needed it and not me because I don't display it So I kind of just I've had it and finally just decided to like see what happens Because I wanted Fisher price my baby best doll from 1977. Yeah That shows my age too. So so what did you sell it for? Um, a full asking prices of say 44 44 95 Shipping Yeah, and if I've seen some solds and people still have them in the box and those go for really good Oh, yeah, if they're new in the box, I mean that's new old stocks the way. I mean, yeah, you're gonna get top dollar Yeah All right, this free people dress Yes Okay, I came across that at my local thrift store. It was eight dollars and I actually Picked it up put it back walked around the store went back picked up again I couldn't decide because I was like, I don't know about this because I knew it was going to be hard to photograph as you can see It was yeah, and um And I know a lot of people said free people just doesn't sell and I couldn't I did a quick search and comps and didn't find anything So I almost put it back But because I had enough to list at home already But I decided to go ahead and pick it up and I got home and kind of did a little research and found the style name Yeah, I found the style name. I searched on poshmark and saw That there were only there was none listed and only a few solds and the solds were really high so When I finally got around to listing it because like I said, it was so hard to photograph. I avoided it for a while I do that too. I um Went to search comps again to kind of like see um Where I should list it because it had been a while since I looked it up and I actually found An in search of post for this exact size dress. Really? I did and so I Commented on her post and I said I have this dress Like so you were looking on poshmark for comps and I saw her I just was searching it to remember. That is awesome And found her in search of posh and the exact size. It was like fate So I just I told her I have it and I'm I'm literally about to list this dress and I it was kind of late at night I think so she didn't see it till the next day um I listed it for 110 and she sent she messaged me and she said would you take you know an offer of 90? And I said yes, I will she wanted to wear it She was actually wanting it for like a wedding that month. So it was like fate. It was awesome. Oh, that's so awesome Yeah, yeah, we didn't talk about the story beforehand. So I'm just hearing this with Yeah, so yeah, so it's a free people silver spun crochet dress. Yeah, please dress so I don't think it's different. I have not found that again the the spun the free people spun Yeah, okay. I mean that again since then I I don't wear free people Like I don't have quick sales with it Yeah, I don't either but that one, you know, I got lucky on that one. I did she knew what she wanted and you had it Exactly. All right. Tell us about these. I've never heard of this brand either. I had neither. Um And I was in a Goodwill in Tulsa, Oklahoma Just happened to be up there for a dance competition for my daughter And they were closing in 30 minutes and I said I want to look at the shoes So we stopped in they were having a shoe sale that day Lucky me and they just looked unique and I could tell that the leather was good quality And they said made in turkey and so I did a quick search and I found out On I think I looked on ebay because I figured this looks like an ebay item to me, which is funny. They sold on posh This was actually a bundle sale. So the bundle which she had some some anthropology pants Um, so I gave her the bundle for 90 So the listings though on ebay if you ever find them They're still very good in anywhere between 60 to 90 depending on like color and style. So They're a good pick up sabah Yeah, s a b a h is how you spell it a turkey zoomed in on the pictures, but Yeah, sabah never heard of it made in turkey It's pretty cool Okay, another torii birch. Where'd you get this at? local Goodwill It was um, that's the that's the brand that like the trinket or whatever you call it Yeah, the big medallion. I don't know Um I actually didn't really know that that was a real torii birch when I saw it It was discarded in a random bin at Goodwill where like somebody picked it up and carried it around and then threw it Do you mean the bins? No, no, like a just a regular Goodwill like, you know, they have different bins where Um, I call them bins. They call them bins too, but they're just they're like, I don't know how to describe them They're not shelves They have a it was with like Cards and stationery and stuff Cost it back in there and this has I mean this has some wear on it too wear on the edges behind the handle It did but it was in there and I like looked at it at first and I was like Is this a fake torii birch and I picked it up and as soon as I picked it up in the heaviness of it And then I touched you touched that leather And I've never had a torii birch first, but when you touch something, you know You can tell the quality of it And so of course I did more research to make sure because I Terrified to list something that's not real. So I do all the research Um, and I'm guessing like the person that had that was probably like, oh, this thing is just old and be up And it doesn't say Anywhere on there says it Maybe on the zipper pool is where it is. Yeah, it's got it on there But it's really you have to like, you know be looking at it with like good eyes It's just got the medallion. So if you don't know that medallion, you don't know that that's anything So somebody probably just didn't know what it was when they picked it up and tossed it back But it was four dollars No, I mean I'm talking about the person that like donated it Oh, I don't know. They're like, oh, it's you know, it's all worn out I thought you part it was talking about the person that picked it up and discarded it elsewhere in the store. Oh, no, uh No, I don't understand sometimes what how things end up at Goodwill. Yeah, I don't know. Yeah, but yes um I paid four dollars and then it sold for 85. So I listed it for a little more And then I had several, you know likes on it So I sent out offers to lackers and the the girl was really cute. She like messaged me after she bought it She goes, I tried so hard to resist and I just couldn't What's a great color? You know what I mean? Yeah, awesome. Okay, where'd you get these? I want these are like I want to find a pair of these Um, this was at a Goodwill near Dallas. Um Again, I find some good stuff when I do happen I believe that somebody like these are expensive shoes. I couldn't believe they didn't have them marked up What did them for? I think they were six dollars. Well, they probably didn't know I don't know how they mark up like Stuart Weitzman and like other I don't know Yeah, but if you look at those, I mean, they don't look like a high-end shoe. That's true But then I had to investigate to see if they're real. So I looked up all the videos on that, you know, um to make sure You know Do they make fake rothies? Yes Yeah, yeah Yeah, if you look the inside sole it has that sticker. Okay. Well, some of them It's hard to see in the photo but some of them are not That's almost like embedded into the footbed like fake ones. I think some of the stickers peel up There's you see the holes in the sole sole on the black part That that's a real indication of a real rothy. Okay And there's there's some other ones I I don't remember off the top of my head because this is the only pair I've picked up. Gotcha So, yeah, so take the sole out and look for that dot That dot and just investigate that um tag is got my signs. Mm-hmm. Okay. There you go guys. There's some tips I don't know if rothies are real Because I wouldn't have known that No, and I took her offer. She offered me that and I slept on it and then I decided I sold these right when all the things were going crazy. So I thought I don't know if people are going to be buying So I took the offer. I could have maybe got a little bit more but 85 I think yeah, some of them go for big money for sure. Definitely I wore on the table before I sold them So What about these a beta brand? Okay, these I paid three dollars at a little the little thrift shop. They don't mark anything up Never heard of this either Um, well, I didn't know all it doesn't say beta brand anywhere, but that little Um, butterfly looking logo on the back. Okay So I knew I had seen that before but When you shop so much at the thrift store you see so many you can't keep them straight Like what's good and what's not sometimes? So I left and went home Oh, no Find I took a picture and the sir. I can't get service in that shop sometimes So I couldn't really start google search the image So I took a picture of the logo and then went home Two days later. I'm scrolling through instagram and somebody shares a beta brand and I see the logo and I like that Yes So as soon as I could get back to that thrift store that has horrible hours It's like closes at three o'clock. So it's hard to get to it unless it's a saturday for me Um, they still had them a couple days here. So I grabbed them up for three bucks But yeah, they're apparently a really good comfortable shoe and um They have a rear wear eyes also Six and a half Yeah, yeah, that's a hard size to sell at least in my experience So I'm guessing you probably would have gotten more for them had they been Like an eight or nine or you know Yeah, and they didn't sell super fast, but Within a couple months, maybe that's still pretty fast. I mean they're used shoes, you know I know they were pretty like They look pretty clean very they were That's awesome. Okay. These crack me up. Tell me about these Okay, so I've never heard of these until I Found them in my local Goodwill and they were on the half off rack I always go through that and something about the little metal medallion on the butt And just they were interesting but the metal medallion sometimes you're like, okay, this looks like an expensive logo I'm gonna look it up. So I looked it up and I was like, what? Threw them in the car and ran out of the store. So they're butt lifting pants and Yeah, so they're like shapewear. Yeah, those are weird looking Apparently they make your behinds look great because um, yeah, well if you're I tried them on too For me, I felt like a video girl or something trying to wear it I felt like a video girl like trying to wear those jeans like I tried them on and I was like, no, these are not for me Yeah, not your thing. Were they comfortable? They were comfortable But you could feel that on your rear and then they were just too tight. Anyways, are they stretchy? They're straight. Yes, very stretchy almost jagging like but thicker. Yeah, I mean they look kind of different Yeah, supposedly they make your rear look good and they lift your Your cheeks. There you have it. So they're called freddy freddy are Yeah, I don't know all down here. It says by asos A sauce, I don't know That was a long time ago. I don't even remember typing that I think their jeans are five dollars. So I paid 250 because they were half off So yeah, it was a good sale. They got A lot of attention pretty quick and I think I got a few offers And this is the one I took because I listed on fire. I've seen some other ones sell higher. So Yeah, I've never heard of that. So they've got that really Obvious waistband in them and definitely the obvious but so I'm sure that everybody will remember them if they see them Yeah, for sure. Okay. I've heard about this soft surroundings. I keep seeing this brand pop up Well, I haven't had much luck with other soft surroundings things But this one was really nice and unique with the all that embroidery It's got a kind of johnny was look to it. So it's probably why It did better. I think the other one I saw was just like It was like a pullover and I want to say they sold it Like between 30 and 50 But it was just plain and I was like what is happening like Like do I need to find this brand? Like why is this going for so much? I think it's only some pieces because like I said I had I had a shirt and it sold for like 25 So I I don't think it's all of it, but this was a really nice long cardigan Um And it was hardly used. Like I don't know if the lady ever wore I picked it up a garage sale She sold it to me for three dollars. I think it was three dollars Yes And then I took an offer I had it listed higher because I don't think there was any listed Yeah, I mean it's definitely Yes, I think I listed it for like 70, but I was guessing because that had no comps or anything to go Yeah, so It ended up being a nice sale. Yeah 50 bucks. Yeah And what's nice about poshmark is they take 20 percent which kind of stinks Yeah, you know the buyer's paying the shipping and there's no returns. So it makes it easy Yeah, all right Well, I'm gonna pull up your channel again Okay, and I'm gonna remind everybody to go down below and be sure to check out the description of this video and subscribe And I'll also post a link to her posh closet and her ebay store if you guys want to check out What else she's selling but again, please go down there and subscribe.
