Yo Gabba Gabba Inflatable Christmas Sleigh Scene

I have a hunch that these will be very hot sellers after Thanksgiving as people start decorating for Christmas. I have had great success in the past buying Gemmy Airblown Inflatables when they are marked down on clearance after the holidays and reselling them. I am taking a shot on these now at full price.

As of right now these are only sold for retail at Home Depot. I have noticed that many HD stores are sold out when you try to do an in store pickup. List price is $79.98 each. They are already listed on Amazon for $139.00. I except these numbers to go up in late November. If not HD offers a 90 day return policy. So if you can spare some cash up front you might want to take a shot on these.

As always do your own research before making a decision.

Good Luck,

John Paul

Thrift Store Item 2 Sell - Vineyard Vines Polo Shirts

Here's another item that I have on my thrift store shopping list.


Vineyard Vines Polo Shirts are great sellers on eBay. They are easy to spot because of the bright pink tag on the inside collar and the whale logo on the chest area. Here is one of my recent completed auctions.



Check out the sell-through rate from Terapeak for 90 days of USED Vineyard Vines Polo Shirts.

Over 82%, that's amazing. And at an avg. price of $22.52 you know you are making a nice profit when you find one because it shouldn't cost more than $4.99 for one at a thrift store.


Good Luck

Item 2 Look 4 - Collectible Lefton Mermaids

I sold a couple of Lefton Vintage Mermaids in September. As you can see below they did pretty well. So this is an item that you want to keep in mind next time you are at a garage sale or thrifting.

Here are my finds :

(click on the pictures to view the full auctions)

Not bad, but as you can see from this screen shot from Terapeak there is a lot more money to be made if you happen to be lucky enough to find the right Lefton Mermaids.

If you are not using Terapeak and are serious about eBay you should really sign up today. I sign on to Terapeak every morning even before I sign onto eBay.

Thrift Store Item 2 Sell - LL Bean Flannel Lined Shirts

Here's another item that I have on my Thrift Store shopping list.

LL BEAN FLANNEL LINED SHIRTS.

Here are the stats from my 90 day Terapeak Research

Avg Price: $20.19 / Sell Through % 91.53 / Total Listings 59

Now you won't become a Titanium Level Powerseller by listing one of these shirts, but it fits my goal of at least a $10.00 profit after all fees. Look at that sell through rate of 91.53%, that is as good as it gets.

Here is another LL Bean item to look for and I will have more to come in the future. LL Bean Hunting Boots Good Luck John Paul
