How lucrative is thrift store business

[cherry123]

Do you buy these used stuffs at a cheaper rate then sell them of at a more higher rate? If that's the case, then i think it's a great business to go into.

Yeah a lot of people do this. You just have to get to buy them cheaper and that's it.

Yes ooh
But I don't like people who buy it and sell it to people as if they are new clothes

I know those old clothes from their funny smells. So I don't get cheated when I want to buy them

Some people have something that they use to wash it so that it will bring it scent that will make you think it is new

I think people who do that, that's a different case, like i have heard of cases where people buy 2nd hand cloths then dry clean them and resell at a very high price in boutiques telling people they are new cloths.

Yes a lot of people do that and there was one time I wanted to do it but I failed. It was a clothing business back then

What happened though, was it that you could not get w place where you could buy at a cheaper rate or what stopped you.

Mini

It can be lucrative. My friend is doing her online business and her supply comes from her orders overseas. She can sell and profit more from her online/live selling instead of having a physical store.

Mini importation is becoming flourishing in Nigeria. This is a business you can start with minimum capital. Even if you don't have shop, it doesn't disturb you.

There are many shops here. If I visit them, I can see good stuff like shoes. But there was instance when I purchased a pair of shoes. I was only able to use it for 2 months.

It's what most indigent people are doing to buy in a thrift store. I saw people flocked in a thrift store this week and it seems a very good business to r]eran for a living.

Can be a good business if people will flock to the store and buy goods. There is a store here just outside the subdivision. I went yesterday to buy a universal remote control. There were lots of people buying stuff because it is relatively cheap. I bought 5 plastic pots, 4 placemats, 1 chopping board and 1 remote control. My final bill was around 500 pesos. Cheaper than the known grocery store.

This is where you can buy fairly used stuff at a very good rate. How lucrative is this kind of business in your country?

My best friend did this, you get wellknown brand for good rate, its so good. I think hes doing well with this business.

There are Surplus store here that sells imported brands like Hollister, Tommy, Aeropostale and others at a lower price.

Every market has its own unique demand and supply requirements. You will have to see if there is a demand of thrift products in your location and if there is not much supply

 

[Starmix]

Because of inflation people may opt to buy in a thrift store. There are thrift stores that also sell quality products. There's no doubt that the more you advertise your store, the more sales you would have.
