Who buys ties on eBay if you can buy them at TJMaxx for less?

People who don't leave the house?

Who buys ties? Although I think I do have one that I purchased at Sears or somewhere similar like 20 years ago.

My daughter does that, buys pricey fashion items at those TJMtype stores and turns them at Ebay. Does very well at it. Vintage clothing from yard sales and estate sales bring mega bucks for the right items.

Most people don't have the access to enough good stuff to be able to buy at a discount...so Ebay ends up being the clearing house.

The hard part is getting it cheap enough. To make any money you pretty much need to buy at clearance prices, and by that time most merchandise is pretty beat up.

A few years ago I made a mint selling French copper cookware on Ebay I found at Homegoods on clearance. Paid for all my Christmas gifts
