We all know that retail clothing lines are too expensive and pricey. That’s why if you flip branded clothing, you can easily make good money. People are usually willing to pay more for name brand clothing.

Often, you can find dresses, jeans, coats and more from big name brands in a local thrift store near you. Sort them and make sure they’re in good condition. Look for well-made items with no missing buttons, extreme alterations, damaged zippers, stains, or weird smells. If there’s still an attached price tag, then you’ve hit the jackpot!

Solid Wood Furniture

If you head to a thrift store or estate sale, you can find solid wood furniture that is always in high demands. From different kinds of chairs, tables, ottomans, cabinets, and desks, you can buy them and resell for a profit.

Consider getting small yet versatile pieces of furniture that can fit into any apartments. People are always looking for items that are a space saver and creatively made. And before you sell them, restore, give them a quick sanding and/or new paint so you can price them higher.

A Variety of Antiques

Antique items are always present at any flea market, thrift store, or estate sale. They are a staple for flipping and makes quick money. It can be an 80’s ornament, artwork by an old artist, vintage vinyl record players, old comics, porcelain dishes, or retro band shirts from the 70’s. Almost anytime you want to sell them, you can most likely find a buyer.

In addition, there are plenty of collectors who are paying big amounts of money just to get collectible items that are still in good condition. You might even find one in your basement!

These are items that easily attract people and sell for good money. A lot of people need them so you can sell them at a good price.

Bicycles

You’ll find bicycles in just about any thrift store. Look for ones that have the perfect conditions. Check the tire, body, seat, pedal, handlebar, freewheel, and gearing. Give them a light wash, oiling and repaint if needed.

Old Cameras and Camera Lenses

I’m not a professional photographer but I seriously love hunting for old cameras and camera lenses. They are just some of the most cute vintage items that work well even in today’s modern era. If you found an old camera that doesn’t work anymore, it can also be a cute decoration. Likewise, many older SLR lenses work well on newer camera models too

Kitchen Gadgets

Anything that’s from a kitchen from the past years is seriously popular. Many people are always looking for cheap kitchen gadgets that make their cooking or baking easier and their kitchen cuter. Consider getting a kitchen aid, blender, slow cooker, or even a waffle maker and resell for good money. Also, you can do the same for other kitchen items like glassware, dishes, pots and pans, and utensils.

Video Games or Gaming Systems

Because video games are nostalgic for many people, it can make it easier to flip. If you find game consoles or even old school video games, don’t think twice and buy them. They could make a quick profit. Plus, their small size and light weight makes them easier to ship. Why not put your gaming knowledge to good use and earn some extra money?

Baby Gear

Another item that worth flipping is baby gears. For many parents or expectant parents, they’re always keeping an eye out for high chairs, bouncers, walkers, play mats, baby clothes, diaper bags, and so much more that are in good condition. If you see them at a garage sale or flea market, don’t pass them up!

Sports Equipment

Similar to bicycles, sports equipment is in demand. People are often fine to snag items secondhand at a thrift store to save money. So grab some as long as they’re in good shape and without wear, rips, tears, or deterioration. Clean them well, use soap and a brush to remove dust quickly, and then flip them. Be sure to avoid the items that have an unpleasant smell since many people that used the sporting clothes sweated in them.
