flipped a baby stroller

I bought a baby stroller for $5 at a garage sale and sold it for $20.  It had some damage on the handle and had to wipe it up but overall in great condition. It took me about a week to flip and ended up selling it to someone who lived 5 minutes away so it was a very convenient transaction.

Flipped A Garage Sale Carseat

I bought an Eddie Bauer Car seat at a garage sale two weekends ago for $5 and flipped it on Craigslist for $35. That's $30 more than what I got it for which equals to a 700% earning on my investment.  Thank you local garage sales and Craigslist! By the way, I always research the going price on Craigslist and come up with a fair and equitable price before listing.

Flipped A Media Center Shelf

I bought a media center shelf as I call it because not sure what else it would be considered.  I walked around this garage sale that was set up on a driveway and came across this media shelf. It didn't even cross my mind that I would buy it but out of curiosity I touched it as it was unique.  An older woman who was running the yard sale quickly told me it was $10 if I wanted it. She was definitely not someone I could see as an owner who would value such a modern piece of furniture and therefore the reason for the cheap price I guess.  Well I bought it and flipped it on Craigslist for $35. It took me about a week though and probably because I couldn't figure out what to title it to attract the right viewers.
