Here we go again! I’m about to go outside on a Friday night to find more, so let’s jump right in.
Nintendo Wii U Gamepad:
- Sold online for $105.
- I found the full system and about 7 popular games at once in a wet bag. Go figure.
- This was fun to test, but the interactive system is better to be enjoyed by younger kids.
- Weight of 2 lbs 10 oz with recycled packaging.
Oh yea, proof:
Did you doubt me?
Medical Grade Air Purifier:
- Sold for $150 cash.
- Included a filter that was in great shape. New filters cost around $200 and last 5 years, so this was a good value.
- Sold to someone who has a ton of BTC and plenty of alt coins. We now chat to exchange info and advice.
- Weight of 46 pounds.
Abdominal Core Exercise Trainer:
- Sold for $80 cash.
- You place you’re phone in slot on top and use it with a phone app that gamifies your training. Think boogie boarding or flying through space.
- I wanted to keep this but it takes up a good amount of space, especially since it’s lopsided on a fulcrum on the bottom to prevent me from stacking it.
- Weight of 7.5 pounds.
Juicer Motor Base:
- Sold online for $95.
- Found while walking to a friend’s place to watch sports.
- It didn’t appear to work at first, but I used some common sense to use a magnet around the unit to simulate that the cup was attached. This triggered the safety release to allow it to run.
- 12 pounds with recycled packaging.
Dyson Vacuum Set:
- Sold for $120 cash.
- Finding these are like finding cash on the street since they sell very quickly.
- I just had to wipe it down with rubbing alcohol.
- Sometimes they’re tossed due to clogs which are easy to clear up in a few minutes.
- Weight of 7.5 pounds.
New High-end Makeup:
- Sold online for $90.
- I found a huge bag of almost 90 pieces of makeup from some type of makeup marketing executive.
- About 2/3 of the makeup was tested (used once) or used, but 1/3 was in new condition.
- While there were many new ones, not all were high-end to resell. I’ve tabled this stuff for later on.
- Weight of 6 ounces with recycled packaging.
—————-
- 6 sales / $640 revenue = $106.67 per find.
- 55% of revenue received as cash.
- No costs.
- Shipping weight included all recycled packaging except tape.

I’m posting 5-6 examples here to spread out the recent results since I don’t have millions of examples. I’m also being more detailed for each as you can see, a fair trade versus my typical 10 examples with less info.
The amount of items here in no way shape or form correlates to the amount of effort I put into finding, restoring, fixing, selling and shipping them. My effort is intended to help the environment, others, and to support myself so I can keep doing this while patiently waiting for crypto to do its thing. It’s been almost 6 years since I worked for anyone else, or at all... These things are my rewards.

Outstanding!
Loving the extra details, especially on stuff like problem solving with the base and magnet.
I’ll admit that I was slightly proud of myself for figuring that out. Small wins!

Thanks. Very glad to see you and your group receptive of my posts when I usually don’t put put myself out there.
