Thrift Store Item - Baseball Jerseys


Baseball Jerseys are good sellers on eBay, especially vintage baseball jerseys in used condition. Anyone can go to a local sporting goods store or shop online and get a new jersey of there favorite team. But people want to look cool and stand out at games by wearing a different jersey than everyone else that shows support for there team.

Your local thrift shop is a great place to find these. Not only do you have the advantage of selling to someone in your area who doesn't want to go looking at thrift stores for items you also have the advantage of selling the Jersey worldwide. Someone living in New York can easily get a new style jersey of there favorite California team by shopping online, but to find a rare vintage style jersey they will turn to eBay. You living in California have the advantage of local merchandise like team jerseys at your local thrift store. Living in New York they will probably find plenty of Mets and Yankees jerseys, but if they support another team they will turn to eBay.


Check out some of these closed listing of used Jerseys, some even have stains on the jersey, so they are not in perfect used condition and they still did well. The bigger the size the better, and popular teams like the Cubs and Red Sox are always good sellers.

Good Luck,
John Paul

Thrift Store Item - Reyn Spooner Hawaiian Shirts



Reyn Spooner Hawaiian Shirts retail for $65.00 and up. I have found these at Thrift Stores and they are excellent sellers on eBay in used condition. Throughout the years the company has had some really cool designs such as Disney, MLB teams, and Elvis Hawaiian Shirts. If you find these at the thrift store chances are they won't be more than $4.99. Check out below for some eBay recent completed listings and the high prices these shirts have sold for in used condition. As with most men's shirts the bigger the size usually the more it will go for on eBay. XL and up usually sell the best.

Charity Auction - Fisher Price Kid Tough Digital Camera Case




OK I know it seems like a small amount, but every Tuesday night I am going to list a new auction with 100% of the proceeds donated to charity. Hopefully the auctions will add up. My goal is to raise at least $500.00 before the end of 2009 through eBay auctions with all the donations going to different animal charities.


I am a huge wildlife / animal lover and proud vegetarian so even in these rough economic times I still try and help out those without a voice even if it is a small amount. There is just so much animal cruelty in this world and I can not understand what is wrong with people.


The proceeds from this auction will benefit Pit Bull Rescue Central

Pit Bull Rescue Central (PBRC) will: Help relieve suffering of and prevent cruelty to dogs identified as pit bulls and mixes thereof, through the public dissemination of educational information. Help reduce the number of homeless pit bulls and mixes thereof, through the public dissemination of educational information. Facilitate the rescue and placement of homeless dogs identified primarily as pit bulls and mixes thereof, into responsible homes.


So if you can help with a bid that would be great, if not this time check back every Wednesday and I will list a new auction and maybe you will find something you like.


Thank you,

John Paul & Zorro
