Thanks for the input! I have been researching; the sellers are stating the size in the title but not showing a picture of the information. Very frustating as I was trying to find a similar size and width.
Yes, they are men’s shoes. The soles are pretty well worn but I can still read the words “Bench Made”. Not made in England but in the USA.
Hi Kevin. Thanks for meeting up. It was great to go to the thrift store with an another ebayer. I learned from you too. I’m going to start looking more at shoes and jeans. Hope you found a lot of treasures at the Outlet!
Congratulations on the fabric sale, Liz. Just curious…did you find it at an estate sale or a thrift store?
Just finished the podcast and wanted to comment on the shipping coupon.
On seller hub, click on Manage Store. Under store design click on Subscriber Discounts. I know that the shipping coupon is available because it will say “NEW” in green. The ebay shipping coupon will be listed first (at least it is on mine). Click on see details and you are ready to start shopping. I don’t know if this is any easier than signing up and waiting on an email. But this is another option.
Let’s meet at the McDonalds on Southport Rd/Emerson Ave. There are two Goodwills and a Goodwill Outlet on Emerson. Easiest for you would be to take 465 east to 65 south. Once on 65, take the Southport Rd exit. At the light, take a left. Go to the second light (Emerson Ave) and make a right. The McDonalds is on the corner. Address is 5030 Southport Crossing, Indianapolis. Can you make it at 9:30?
All SL trash elves are welcome! We are meeting on Jan 4th.
Hi Becky, I appreciate your videos especially the one you did on eyeglasses. I was very sorry to hear about your husband. I hope that you and your children are ok.
Awesome stories! Back in June, I bought a brass ostritch/emu figure that opened up. Inside was a crystal egg. I couldn’t read the inscription on the bottom; it was very faded. I took a chance and purchased for $5. I had to use a magnifying glass to read the bottom; but it was from the 1970s and from a designer who now only designs silver plated items. Took a best offer of $175. Bought a rather dirty, beat up LL Bean leather briefcase for $10. Cleaned it up and sold it for $150, buy it now.
Also sold a fanny pack made by a German designer for $200.Nothing over $200 yet but I’m hoping!
I don’t know of any church thrift stores, at least around my area. Have you been to St Vincent De Paul? It’s in the Noblesville are, 1391 Greenfield Ave. They are only open on Monday, Wednesday, Thursday from 10-2 and Saturday from 9-12. I have found some nice items there.
There are quite a few Goodwills on my side plus I also travel to Greenwood and Center Grove. It depends on how far you want to travel.
Do you want to meet for coffee first?
I hit the Goodwills on Wednesday also…gotta love the 30% discount. When you talk about the north side of town, are you talking Fishers/Noblesville or Westfield/Carmel? I live on the SE side of Indianapolis but I can meet up on the north side. I try to go once a month. Tomorrow is too soon for me to meet but I can meet on January 4th. I see scavengers all the time at Goodwill, they are the ones that have their carts full of clothing or have their phone out but I don’t really know anyone. I think we are all afraid of the competetion. I’m not sure why, there is plenty of stuff to scavenge.
Hi! I live in Indianapolis and would like to meet up with fellow scavengers. I do ebay full time and don’t have a “normal” job so I am flexible on when and where to meet.
That’s what I was thinking too. Otherwise, it would be a nightmare. Do you coil the belt tightly in the bag and if you do, have you seen any damage to the belt?
I must have had some connection issues last night. I couldn’t log in to answer until this morning.
I have 100 belts right now with another 30-50 belts coming. All nice leather belts barely or never worn. I’m trying to think of a way to store so that they are easily accessible when they sell. Another factor is that they all look very similar and all the same size.
Thanks for any suggestions! I appreciate it!
