Thanks Worthpoint and Salvation army for the resellers workshop and treasure hunt day. It was a wonderful learning experience and a great way to celebrate Earth Day!
I don’t normally click on Facebook ads but I was quite curious as a couple of my favorite places were mentioned - Salvation Army and eBay. It was well targeted! I had heard of Worthpoint but had never fully understood the site so was really glad to be properly introduced and educated on its uses.
Resellers use the site to:
create a personal digital archive of prized possessions
Find accurate pricing trends to buy better and sell better
Expand knowledge base with their digital library of over 8,000 books, guides, and catalogs
To highlight these services, we were treated to a crash course on assigning value to artwork and listing on eBay.
We had some time to treasure hunt in the store and do what thrift shoppers love to do -- SHOW AND TELL! It was nice seeing what others were attracted to and attaching value to those treasures. I used my time to look for items to add to The Thriftanista Closet.
My absolute favorite part of the day was the Salvation Army warehouse tour. SA does their very best to recycle as much as possible. Less than 5% of donated textiles end up in landfills. The funds are then used to support Salvation Army rehabilitation centers.
The warehouse is incredibly organized considering the 1,000s of donations received on a daily basis. I spotted a gorgeous Anuschka hand painted bag that I'm looking forward to bidding on in the Salvation Army eBay store real soon.
