<p>[QUOTE="Lithographer, post: 4518605, member: 13308"]I used to supplement my income $5000-$10000 a year by reselling stuff from the goodwill. 10 to 15 years ago it was not unusual to flip a painting for $500 or a guitar or some coin silver. I was going twice a day sometimes just to catch stuff as it came in. Now I don’t find doody, everything is bar coded and overpriced. They do pull the good stuff and auction it. They have a regional center that evaluates and distributes out the “dregs” of the rest of the stuff. I have much better luck at church based thrifts, they don’t do the research. There are days when I wonder why I bother going… just hooked I guess.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
