How much of your reselling business do you really control?We choose what to buy, how much to pay, where to list it, how to price it, and how to run our business—but marketplaces still control the rules, fees, search visibility, buyer protections, and access to customers.In Episode 128, Wes and Stewart talk about the tradeoff between seller independence and marketplace control, whether resellers spend too much time chasing the algorithm, how old reselling strategies become outdated, why cross-listing matters, and what sellers can still control when the platforms keep changing.We also ask what would happen if your primary marketplace suddenly changed one major rule—or disappeared completely.And fittingly for an episode about control, we had plenty of technical problems of our own getting this one recorded. 😂If you enjoy real-world reseller conversations like this, please give the video a 👍 and subscribe to Finders Flippers so you don’t miss future episodes.0:00 Welcome to Episode 1281:11 How Much Control Do Resellers Really Have?2:46 What Should Marketplaces Handle?6:41 When Seller Control Means More Work12:09 Are We Wasting Time Chasing the Algorithm?13:51 Changing Listings to Please eBay16:20 When Old Reselling Strategies Stop Working19:06 Does Experience Make Sellers Resistant to Change?21:47 What Resellers Can Actually Control23:06 Does Cross-Listing Protect Your Business?25:28 Do Resellers Complain Too Much?27:29 Three Questions Every Reseller Should Answer30:01 What If eBay Disappeared Tomorrow?31:40 What Do Sellers Have Less Control Over?32:51 When the Podcast Lost Control Too 😂#Reselling #OnlineSelling #ResellerPodcast

Every reseller tells themselves a few little lies. “It’ll sell eventually.” “I’ll list it when I get home.” “That one sold for $100, so mine is worth $100.” And maybe the biggest one: “I made $100 on that flip.”In Episode 127, Wes and Stewart break down the rationalizations resellers make about old inventory, cheap buys, death piles, sold comps, pricing, profit, sourcing, and the highlight-reel version of reselling we see on social media. Stewart even takes a hard look at inventory he’s been holding since 2015 and asks whether long-tail inventory eventually becomes stubborn inventory.What reseller lie are YOU most guilty of telling yourself?👍 Like the video💬 Tell us your biggest reseller lie in the comments🔔 Subscribe for more reseller discussions every week0:00 Episode 127 – The Biggest Reseller Lies1:40 The Lies Resellers Tell Themselves2:37 “It’ll Sell Eventually”3:01 Stewart’s Oldest Inventory – Listed Since 20157:14 “I Can’t Leave It Behind at That Price”10:36 Can a $1 Item Still Be a Bad Buy?11:51 “I’ll List It When I Get Home”17:24 What Items Do Resellers Procrastinate Listing?20:39 “That Sold for $100, So Mine Is Worth $100”23:01 How to Comp Rare Items25:02 Pricing Too High vs Leaving Money on the Table27:33 “I Made $100 on That Flip”30:01 The Social Media Reseller Highlight Reel34:21 Rapid-Fire Reseller Lies39:09 Which Reseller Lie Costs You the Most?41:34 Closing Thoughts#Reselling #eBayReseller #ResellerPodcast #eBaySeller #OnlineReselling

Episode 126 of the Finders Flippers Resell Podcast looks at what happens when a reselling business gets BIG.Johnny is back with Wes this week as Stewart sits this episode out, and Johnny shares what life has really been like since he and Lizzie moved part of Frizzy’s Finds into a warehouse and scaled up their WhatNot operation.The biggest lesson so far? A warehouse comes with a whole new set of problems. Johnny tells the hilarious story of 24 pallets arriving by freight when they had no pallet jack, no dock plate, and no real idea how unloading was supposed to work.They also talk about the jump from small thrift-store purchases to spending tens of thousands on inventory, selling as many as 301 items in a single WhatNot show, handling hundreds of outgoing packages, and how quickly all the little costs of scaling a business add up.If you’re thinking about buying pallets, moving into a warehouse, selling on WhatNot, or growing your reselling business, this episode is packed with lessons learned the hard way.👍 Like the episode💬 What’s the biggest risk you’ve ever taken in your reselling business?🔔 Subscribe and help us on our road to 1,000 subscribers!0:00 Johnny Is Back!

What happens when a reseller finds an incredible opportunity—but taking advantage of it means spending way outside their comfort zone?Stewart recently spent more than $900 at an estate sale on four vintage 1950s golf tickets, including Masters Tournament tickets, despite having very few sold comps to work with. The gamble—or calculated risk—paid off when all four sold within hours, producing about $1,800 in true profit.But that raises a much bigger question: how much risk should a reseller actually take?In Episode 125, Stewart and Wes talk about calculated risk vs. gambling, tying up money in inventory, expensive purchases, fragile items, shipping high-dollar sales, scams and returns, platform risk, cross-listing, and how experience changes your willingness to take chances.We also finish with “Would You Risk It?”—eight reseller scenarios where Stewart and Wes have to choose BUY or PASS.Play along in the comments and tell us which risks YOU would take!👍 Like the video💬 Tell us your reseller risk tolerance🔔 Subscribe for more reseller discussions every week00:00 I Spent $900 on 4 Vintage Tickets02:46 Would Wes Have Taken the Risk?06:04 Risk Is More Than Just the Purchase Price09:45 How Much Money Is Too Much to Risk?12:49 Calculated Risk vs. Gambling15:01 When You're Really Just Hoping17:51 Should Resellers Stop Comping Cheap Items?19:19 Can Being Too Cautious Cost You Money?22:05 The Risks That Come AFTER You Buy26:16 Collections, Storage & Tying Up Cash27:16 Shipping, Scams, Returns & High-Dollar Sales32:34 Does Experience Make You a Bigger Risk Taker?37:50 Platform Risk & Why We Cross-List39:42 Would You Risk It? 8 Reseller Scenarios47:43 Stewart Gets the Green Jacket#Reselling #eBaySeller #Reseller

Are there simply TOO MANY resellers now? In Episode 124 of the Finders Flippers Resell Podcast, Stewart and Wes dig into whether sourcing at estate sales, yard sales, thrift stores and other secondhand markets has become more competitive than ever.We talk about the growing number of shoppers researching items on their phones, whether social media has created unrealistic expectations about reselling, how Google Lens and instant sold comps have changed the game, and whether old-fashioned product knowledge still gives experienced sellers an advantage.We also ask whether thrift stores are now competing directly with their own customers by researching and selling higher-value donations online.Then Stewart shares his experience sourcing the 2026 US 127 World’s Longest Yard Sale in Tennessee—including a disappointing first day, a MUCH better second day, Flow Blue china, vintage records, postcards and some early sales from his finds.Finally, we answer the big question: Is there still room for new resellers in 2026?👇 Let us know in the comments: Are you seeing more reseller competition where YOU source?👍 Like, subscribe and join us on the road to 1,000 subscribers!00:00 Welcome to Finders Flippers Episode 12401:34 Are Estate Sales Becoming Too Competitive?03:35 Why There Are More Resellers Everywhere05:12 The Problem With Early Yard Sale Shoppers07:39 Estate Sale Crowds & Sourcing Strategies10:41 Crazy Estate Sale Stories & Hidden Gems12:47 Has Social Media Created Too Many Resellers?15:21 Has Technology Made Everyone a Reselling Expert?18:22 Is Knowledge Still a Reseller's Biggest Advantage?19:42 Are Thrift Stores Competing With Their Customers?23:43 US 127 World's Longest Yard Sale Results32:24 Is There Still Room for New Resellers in 2026?#Reselling #eBaySeller #ResellerCommunity #EstateSales #YardSales

Is Vinted the next big reselling platform—or is it actively trying to keep professional sellers away? In Episode 122, Wes, Johnny and Stewart discuss Vinted’s no-fee selling model, extremely low offers, automated account bans, commercial seller restrictions and whether a future Vinted Pro option could make the platform worthwhile for resellers.Johnny also shares the details of the 2,200-square-foot warehouse he and Lizzie just rented, including the monthly cost, its unusual tobacco-storage history and their plans to move the reselling operation out of the house.The conversation continues with Wes explaining how he balances teaching, basketball officiating and reselling, why he considers himself a recreational reseller, and how he is preparing to make reselling a bigger part of retirement.Have you sold on Vinted—or been banned from it?

What happens when a reseller spends decades mastering one extremely specific niche?In Episode 120, Wes and Stewart talk with Jason Spangler, better known as the Santee Swapper, one of the largest sellers of scouting memorabilia on eBay. Jason has built an operation with more than 100,000 unique listings while selling only Boy Scout and scouting-related collectibles.Jason explains how he turned a childhood patch collection into a full-time reselling business, why newsletters and YouTube videos caused collections to start coming directly to him, and how he evaluates massive purchases where most of the value may be concentrated in only a handful of items.We also discuss rare Order of the Arrow memorabilia, what scouting items resellers should actually look for, why most uniforms and common jamboree pieces have limited value, lessons learned from bad consignment agreements, and the importance of acting quickly when a great sourcing opportunity appears.Jason also shares the remarkable story behind several museum-quality pieces from the 1930s that recently entered his personal collection—and why some treasures are worth keeping rather than reselling.Find Jason under  @TheSanteeswapper  and at ScoutPatchCollectors.com.Subscribe for more honest conversations about eBay, sourcing, collecting, shipping, and building a sustainable reselling business.#Reselling #eBaySeller #BoyScoutCollectibles #ScoutingMemorabilia #NicheReselling
