Who doesn’t love a good bulk buy when it comes to reselling? 👀
This summer my husband and I hit the road almost every weekend hunting at garage sales and estate sales. In our journeys we accidentally came across multiple bulk buys and in this video I’m breaking down exactly what we found, what we paid, and how I’m planning to roughly 3X our investment across the board.
If you’re new here: I’m Erica, a part-time reseller and this channel is really our experiment in building consistent monthly income heading into retirement whether that goes toward healthcare costs, travel, or just extra cushion beyond our retirement fund.
I also share the story of my very first bulk buy deal, a custom Craigslist/Facebook ad, one response, and a house full of vintage Coach, Pendleton, and a leather 49ers jacket that changed how I think about sourcing.

$660 invested with a goal of $2,000 net profit which is roughly 3x my money back.
I walk through how I price on the spot, how I decide what goes into a lot vs. sells solo, and which platform (eBay, Facebook Marketplace, or Etsy) makes sense for each type of item.
