Over the past month, my Instagram followers have been providing me with some AMAZING reseller feedback and I wanted to share some of it with you today on on the blog. As someone who has an active role in the reselling community, I really try hard to make sure that I contribute information that is both positive and valuable to my followers. One of my favorite things to do is simply ask others what their thought is on a given topic and then await their responses to it. What works for me, might not work for others and this creates an open discussion that allows everyone to learn from one another. Today, I want to share a few topics that were discussed on my Instagram last month and share some responses to those topics:
Topic One: New With Tag Items
— Unlike popular belief, many people stated that used items sell better for them than NWT items
— Some people would buy it depending on the price. One example given was if the item was found at the bins, then they would buy it as it as the price is so low.
— Others would buy only buy the item if it has good comps and there aren’t a TON of other people selling the same item
Topic Two: Retail Freebies with Herschel
This one is more of an FYI but did you know that if you find a Herschel bag while thrifting, the company will actually send you a replacement strap for FREE! I learned this as I found a Herschel bag while sourcing and gave it to my boyfriend. He then emailed the company and they sent him a replacement strap for the duffel bag for FREE!
Topic 3: Thrift Shopping Process
— Most people thrift by placing wanted items in their cart, scouring the return rack, and then removing unwanted items from their cart. Once that is all set, they take items off the hangers before going to checkout.
— Most people find sourcing very therapeutic.
— Many people hit the shoe racks first; purses came in a close second.
I don’t know about you but I love gathering data to not only help myself but to also help my fellow resellers. Please email me and let me know if there are any topics that you would like to me research and find information about as I would be more than happy to do it.
