Pure Hustle Podcast

Two shoppers almost threw down at the bins. Is it ever OK to interrupt another buyer's deal? Garage sale etiquette for eBay resellers.

Mike and Orlando break down garage sale etiquette for resellers: how early is too early, grabbing items in front of other buyers, hoarding piles, negotiating without being rude, and checking eBay prices in front of sellers. Plus Hustle of the Week: a $70 lighter that sold for $599, a $10 box of kids' toys, and the $8 bobcat that got away.

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.

💬 Comment below: what's your best BOLO that paid off after hearing it on the show?
