Bought 4 huge binders of "gold" dollars and kennedy halves in 2x2's for the $2100.00 asking price- Sold $1922 FV in common stuff (some S mints and other nice looking stuff) for $1950 cash on CL. Sold 99 proofs on eBay for $170.00 - Kept $700 worth silver halves for just about nothing ($700 silver value, not $700 FV) My fav. is the BU 1970 Kennedy - Whoop, Whoop.

Got a typewriter for $0.25 at a thrift store and flipped it quick on CL for $30.00 to a bright eyed young lass.

Got a tandem bike for FREE and flipped it for $150 on CL 2 days later to 2 college kids who were psyched (and likely stoned) out of their minds. Hope it gets them laid, haha.

That's just the last week. People ask me where I get money to buy coins and guns, and this is the answer. While they are watching the booob tooob, I am flipping stuff.

Believe it or not I've actually made hundreds of dollars this year off of USED clothing, as long as you know what to look for in thrift stores you can make some big money. My favorite brand to flip has got to be Robert Graham, especially the long sleeve flip cuff vibrant sport shirts :D

How can this be? $200 shirts at a thrift store?!?!? You have to live in California.

Do you look for specific sizes?
How important is condition?

If I have to start looking through clothes too at thrift stores, I'm going to really have a tough time getting anything else done. I'm going to try to block that nugget of info out of my mind for now :lol: Nice find though.
