October 28 She Trusted Vinted's Price. Sold It for $16?! | Pure Hustle Podcast Ep. 521
A reseller sold a thrift-store skirt for $16 after trusting Vinted's suggested price. Mike and Orlando react.

Is thrifting still profitable for eBay resellers in 2026? In Episode 521 of the Pure Hustle Podcast, Mike and Orlando watch raw reseller TikToks for the first time and give their honest takes: a thrift-store skirt a seller listed on Vinted for $16, a Goodwill jacket with a claimed value of $150K to $250K, a box of Goodwill Lego that leads to a $10,000 Lego sorting machine, and the question of whether thrift stores are now "luxury" stores.

They also debate whether Goodwill is cutting resellers out, what counts as a professional reseller on Vinted, and share listener and host flips, including a $20 estate-sale mobility scooter. Their main lessons for new and experienced resellers: research before you list, use Google Lens and eBay sold comps, and track your sell-through rate (how many items sold compared with how many are listed).

October 22 eBay Updates - Sell-Through Is King: "If You're Not Selling, It's Your Fault"
Orlando paid $5 for a garage-sale Supreme bag. The shirts sold for $100 and $200, then both buyers returned them as fake. Plus a $600 gold ring that failed eBay authentication.
Mike, Orlando and guest Tim run the Ep. 520 update: why sell-through rate is king, whether AI listing tools are worth it, Vinted vs eBay, and the fakes to watch for (Supreme, Nike, golf clubs, Temu, Pokemon). They also cover partial refunds and negative feedback, business cards in packages, and BOLO finds like mesh routers, Toys R Us ads and posters, and Mickey Mouse boots.

October 17 Bonus - eBay Secretly Tested a 5% Minimum on Promoted Listings | Pure Hustle Reseller Rants Ep. 1
eBay secretly ran a promoted listings test in early October: sellers who usually promote at 2% to 3% got an error forcing at least 5%, and eBay only called it a test days later. Here's what else we cover.

This is the first episode of Reseller Rants, a new, shorter format from Pure Hustle Podcast. We cover a suspicious online estate auction where the best of 100+ leather bound books may have been pulled before the sale, Texas taxing sellers on platform fees (eBay didn't tell sellers, and the tax is expected to stop in November with no refunds on what was already paid), the $50 USPS fee for hazmat or battery labels left on reused boxes, and changes to Poshmark shipping fees.

Have you been hit with extra fees? Tell us in the comments.

October 06 Reseller Garage Sale Etiquette: Show Up 1 Hour Early?
Is showing up an hour early to a garage sale rude, or the only way to win? 👀 In Episode 518 of the Pure Hustle Podcast, Mike and Orlando are joined by Tim (Selling With Tim) for Discord Dialogue to settle the biggest reseller etiquette debate: how early is too early for garage sales and estate sales, and who gets out of the car first?
🔥 In this episode:
• Why "there's no inventory left to resell" is a myth
• Orlando's warning to full-time resellers: schedule your sourcing or lose money
• How to handle an eBay return when a buyer says the item doesn't work (and protect your feedback)
• How much space you need for reselling: garage setups, totes, and storage units
• How many buyers should you block on eBay? We compare block lists (15 vs. 28 vs. 138!)
• Rainy-day pivots: listing dead piles, reorganizing, and bookkeeping
• Spicy BOLO: 1970s vintage receivers (Marantz, Pioneer, silver face with wood sides) selling for $200 to $2,000, plus why vintage electronics manuals sell fast
Great for beginner and experienced resellers on eBay, Poshmark, Vinted, and Facebook Marketplace who source from garage sales, thrift stores, and estate sales.
