These Awesome Goodwill Finds Will Sell Amazingly on eBay




If you are someone who loves searching through thrift stores or yard sales for hidden gems, then you probably know the thrill of finding a great deal. However, did you know that some of those finds from Goodwill can also fetch you a handsome profit on eBay? That’s right! Certain items have a high demand among collectors and enthusiasts, making them perfect candidates for selling online.

One of the most lucrative items you can find at Goodwill is vintage clothing. With the growing trend of retro fashion, vintage pieces from decades past are highly sought after. Look for well-preserved garments from iconic brands such as Levi’s, Adidas, or even high-end designers like Chanel or Dior. Authentic vintage band t-shirts or concert memorabilia can also bring in a pretty penny.

Another category that can yield excellent profits is antique or unique collectibles. Goodwill can sometimes be a treasure trove for trinkets like antique china, vintage toys, or rare coins. These items often have a dedicated community of collectors who are willing to pay top dollar for them. Check for marks or signatures that indicate the item’s authenticity or rarity, and make sure to highlight those details in your eBay listing.

Books are another popular category on eBay, and Goodwill usually has a good selection. Keep an eye out for first editions, signed copies, or books on niche subjects. Some textbooks or out-of-print titles can be worth hundreds of dollars to the right buyer. Additionally, vintage cookbooks or instructional guides can be valuable for those interested in retro recipes or home decor from a specific era.

Electronics are always in demand, and Goodwill often has a selection of used gadgets. While not every electronic item will sell well, some are highly sought after by collectors or tech enthusiasts. Vintage video game consoles, vinyl record players, or even old film cameras can fetch a good price if they are in working condition. Ensure that you thoroughly test these items before listing them and specify their condition in the description.

One important aspect to keep in mind when selling Goodwill finds on eBay is research. Take some time to browse eBay and other online marketplaces to get an idea of the prices these items are currently selling for. This will help you set a realistic and competitive price for your listing. Take clear, detailed photos of your item, and write a comprehensive description that highlights its unique features or condition.

Remember, patience is key when selling on eBay. Some items may sell quickly, while others may take a bit more time to find the right buyer. Be prepared to invest some time and effort into marketing your listings, promoting them on social media or relevant forums, and responding promptly to potential buyers’ inquiries.

So the next time you visit your local Goodwill, keep an eye out for these valuable items. Your thrifting adventures might just turn into a profitable side hustle on eBay. Remember, one person’s donation can become another person’s treasure, and you could be the one benefiting from it. Happy selling!

    I have sold a couple of duck decoys in the $100 range but as you say they are hard to find good ones in good condition.
    I found an Ertl nib tractor at a antique sale for $75 and put it down and walked away thinking the guy knew what it was worth. I didn’t even search comps. It haunted me the rest of the day. I end up calling my daughter who was still there to buy it. I sold it in one day for $300 plus shipping to Canada

    What makes you sell certain items on Amazon instead of Ebay? Do you check the comps first? Do you sell FBA on Amazon? Does selling items on Amazon FBA have to be new? I just started reselling on Ebay. I've been watching tons of videos. I enjoy your videos btw. Trying to get as much info as possible. Thanks

    My goodwills jacked up prices about 2 years ago and never looked back. The floors are empty now except Wednesdays which is senior day and 30% off. I don’t think they care, it’s just a donation center and they will keep putting stuff online to sell.
