Lucky Brand Jeans - Which Ones Should I Buy At Thrift Stores?


Lucky Brand Jeans are probably the most common of the higher end brands that you will see while thrifting. (I'm not counting Gap, J Crew, and Bananna Republic)
I have purchased many a pair of Lucky Brand Jeans to resell on eBay and have had my ups and downs. At first I would not pass on a pair unless it was damaged, but now I only buy certain pairs.

Here is my list of Lucky Brand Jeans that I think are worth buying. Of course there are other pairs that might sell well, but these are the ones I focus in on.
  • "Lil Maggie" Style (check the bottom of the inside tag to see style names)
  • Women's Sizes 14/32, 16/33 & 18/34
  • Men's Sizes 36 and Up (the bigger the better)
  • Lucky Brand Maternity Jeans (Hard To Find)

Another Tip: Stay away from Black Lucky Brand Jeans. They always seem to disappoint on eBay.

Good Luck and post your Lucky Brand Findings.

Sports Authority Clearance Sale

I just came back from my local Sports Authority and they had a Clearance Tent set up in the parking lot with tons of clothing and sneakers. I have seen these tents set up at other Sports Authorities as well. Search through the stuff they got some great deals on Name Brands that sell really well on eBay (North Face, Merrell, Under Armour)

I went shopping for myself but purchased 1 item to resell on eBay and will be back looking for more items to re-sell on eBay. I got these awesome looking Merrell Sneakers going for $95.00 on Zappos for only $24.99. They got great reviews and are waterproof which is perfect because I love to go hiking and kayaking. I got a L.A. Galaxy David Beckham Jersey Shirt to re-sell on eBay for .98 cents. I couldn't believe it when I saw it. It has to be at least a $12.99 Buy It Now on eBay.
So go check out your local Sports Authority and if you find any good deals and want to Thank Me I am a size Large and could use some knit polyester North face T-Shirts.

Try .99¢ Auctions For A Higher Profit

eBay is weird like this, but if you have an unsold item that you expected to sell for at least $4.99, and you started it at that price, re-list it for .99¢ the next time around. It happens to me all the time with clothing that I have sold. One of my items goes unsold at $4.99 and then when I list it starting at .99¢ the item sells for much higher. Here are some of my own recent examples.




Now don't expect the item to sell for d$150.00 bucks. But at least you sold the item and now you can move on to something else and make a few bucks instead of losing a few. Plus hopefully you'll get some positive feedback and maybe a new customer who will follow your future auctions.
