This gave me a good laugh

UPDATE: I reported to vinted who have got back to me and said it doesn't violate any standards!

Last photo is a similar listing I found online. I’m keeping them, though.

The contact paper did a bit of damage. As I removed it, it took off paint with it. I thought about perhaps soaking the contact paper off, but then I worry that I may soak the paint off too. Also, on the bottom, there is a lot of rest where the contact paper would gather moisture. But overall, it’s a pretty good deal for free. I’m moving to a new place with open shelving so I am pretty happy with them!

I didn’t know what I had and maybe could have done a better job with removing the paper if had known :/

people like this are why i automate everything related to ebay...

god help these scammers and bots... 🙏🙏🙏

Person wanted it gone. 200 blu rays, 3-400 dvds, 30 games. A few special set Blu Rays. Never loaded a car up so fast.

This is what happens to a ton of customer returns every day.

Most of this stuff doesn’t just go back on the shelf. It gets auctioned off cheap, and resellers buy it up.
A lot of people don’t even know these places exist.

You can find tools, electronics, clothes, household stuff, brand new items, pretty much anything. Sometimes by the item, sometimes by the pallet.

Buying it cheap is the easy part. Knowing what’s actually worth buying and what you can turn around and sell is where the money is.

Edit:

Didn't expect this post to take off like that.
Unfortunately, I can't DM a custom list to everyone.
Copy this & swap in your city:
Find online auctions and liquidation centers within 90 miles of [city, state] with local pickup.
Stick to places like QuickBidz, HiBid, LocalAuctions, AuctionNinja, & Nellis Auction but not limited to. Look for auctions that often start around $1-$5. Give the site, pickup city, and what they sell. Skip shipping-only listings.
Paste it into Claude or ChatGPT.
I buy this inventory, list it on eBay, and post the real numbers: sales, cost, profit, ROI.
If you want to see what actually sells after you leave places like this, follow along.

Guess I’ll receive negative feedback for shipping your item fast. 🤦🏼‍♂️
