realistic in many ways
I love this show. There are very realistic aspects and some things they leave out of the thrifting game.
they do show that ebaying is not a get rich quick way to make money. They do sell things like tshirts and coffee mugs. Are they making a TON, no,but they are making money. For most of us selling on the bay is not easy and not quick money.
Now, what they leave out: they are projecting profits and do not mention the shipping, plush percentage they pay to the company for final value percentage, AND a percentage of the sale to process the payment. Plus, the monthly online store "rent".
If you are considering selling online, you do need to research all of the costs involved first. So many people don't realize the fees associated with selling, but there is still room for profit.
These guys have been selling for years, and their experience shows its not a few big ticket items, but a LOT of smalls that add up. That is how many resellers earn a living.
