Central Florida Thrift Store Crawl: 2nd Time Around Super Thrift Store Eustis

This Thrift Store is located in Eustis Florida at the corner of Hwy 19 and 441. I have visited this store a couple of times in the past. It is a LARGE store with many, many items. It may have been a furniture store in its past life.

A wide variety of clothes, racks and racks of them.

Lamps, candles and plastic ware.

Kitchenware on the left and crafts against the wall.

Mugs. They had bunches, most were priced at a $1 or more.

This mug caught my eye, but after checking completeds I put it back.

Tons of books.

They had a room dedicated to Christmas. I like how they had the Christmas balls separated by color.

The large room in the back was full of furniture!

Furniture.

More furniture.....

I did buy one item. It was a Cutco wood knife block.

Cutco is a high value item and after checking completeds I picked it up for $5.00. Listed it the same day and it sold for 45.99 FS.

Overall my impression of 2nd Time Around Super Thrift Store is that they have a lot of items for you to search through. Some are priced out of my range as a reseller, but if you look hard enough you will find that treasure that will make your trip worthwhile.

The staff was very friendly and helpful.

Cleaning Up My eBay Store

I have been working on cleaning up my eBay store. My first step this morning is to work on all my categories. All of my category titles are in capital letters. I have gone back and edited a great majority of my category titles and changed them from capital letters to regular.

Now I am going to go to each category on a daily basis and tweak, cleanup and evaluate each listing in that category. I am also going to add subcategories in each category. Sometimes it's hard to figure out what category the item I am listing is going to go into. So I have added four additional categories to help with my listing process.

 

The categories I have added are the following; for her, for him, for children and special values. I think that this will cover just about any item I am listing and that I have a hard time putting into a particular category. It always seems like I have items that I can't find a place for And end up in the "other" category.

Today I am working on the "Women's Clothing" category. I have added sub-categories to include shirts-blouses, pants, dresses-skirts, shoes,plus size,scarves , purses,and lingere.

 

Now to get busy listing and fill up the sub categories with my latest haul from a local thrift store. The store was having a fill a bag for 10.00 ( with clothes). The bag is similar to the cloth like grocery store bags you can buy for 0.99 cents. This thrift charges $2.00 but you can use the bag again and again.

 

I managed to stuff the bag full of 26 clothing items that included name brand dresses, Levi jeans, scarves,and a couple of men's jackets and shirts. When you break it down, I ended up spending about 0.50 cents an item.

 

Clothes are not my favorite things to list, as you have to include measurements. I hate to measure anything. But, I love to ship clothes, slip them into a poly bag and off they go!
