I Once Had A Real Job…
Hey everyone. I’m Chris aka Car Boot Chris. I make videos and buy and sell shit on the internet. That’s my job now. I once had a respectable career.

Hi Chris great to see you in here! Selling shit on the internet is becoming more accepted by the masses now. Our social status is slowly going up 😂
Hey everyone!
JammyDodgerFlips from YouTube here. Cool to be back in a Reselling group! Last time I was in one of these was the TatChat on Facebook all those years ago… Props to Luke & Simon for setting this up, It’s going to be the start of something huge for the reselling community 🫶🏼

Hi James great to see you here 🙂
Introduction Post
Hello, I'm James, I've been reselling for 10 years, mostly eBay, Depop and Vinted. I even tried my own shopify store, with mixed success on that. Primarily clothing but now selling lots of trainers as well thanks to how easy they are to snipe on Vinted 😂 Looking forward to being part of the group!

Hi James 🙂 Is Vinted one of your main sources for stock and have you had any problems like getting warnings for buying too much? Have they calmed down a bit on that now? I want to start sourcing on there but obviously want to avoid going “over the limit”, just not sure where that limit is

@James Bannister thanks, ok cool I don’t think I’d buy more than 10-20 items max in a day I just heard conflicting stories but I think it was quite a while ago where people were having issues like that. I do like it on there for buying, it’s more like an online car boot where pretty much everything is on offer
One for the big players in the game...
Scaling. Talk to me. ▪️For those that have grown a store from a couple hundred items to over 1000, how long did this process take you? ▪️Did you gradually increase your daily listing goal as stock and cashflow allowed, focused on listing more than you sell each day or was there another method that allowed you growth?📊 ▪️Did you set a percentage of your payouts for reinvesting into the business and paying yourself, and did this change as you grew?💲 ▪️How did you accommodate the growing inventory; and when did you decide that investing in more space/units/sheds was the right thing to do?📦 Any advice for a small player trying to grow, but frustrated at how long it's taking would be much appreciated🫶

I’m still a small fish but scaling up at the moment with a new volume model I’m trying by looking for items I can process the quickest. Smaller items are easier to manage and store but you also have to take sell through rate into account because I’ve recently started listing magazines and easy to process but they’re quickly taking up more space than my small electronics because they’re slow STR, although the margins are very good so there’s a few trade offs. So the best advise I can give if you want to scale is to focus on items which are easy for you to process and that you can manage storage wise. I’m still trying stuff out, my avg sale price has dropped but I can photo and list the smaller items faster
Good morning :)
Hi all I’m Matt, I’ve been reselling in different forms for most of my life. Started taking ebay seriously full time about 6 years ago, had various set backs in that time but I’m in a good position now to take things up a few levels so this group has come at the perfect time, thanks for setting it up guys! I think this will really help me stay on tracked, will be good to relate with the struggles and successes of others here as well

@Flora Harrison I Thanks Flora I appreciate your offer of help. I will get around to working on it soon. I first want to mainly focus on increasing my inventory and then when I create my own store it will have a decent size from day 1. Also I’m quite stubborn, if I can do something myself I usually take that option, for better or worse lol

@Flora Harrison I Thanks Flora I appreciate that! Let me know too if there’s anything you think I can help with 🙂 Techy stuff and systems, that kind of thing is my field. Good luck with your shop as well!
