Re: All right, I need some advice on how to maximize my profits.

Oh, I don't have any good vintage shirts up right now... just an Alan Jackson shirt that I only picked up because I had sold one before. http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=150693064852 I'm willing to sell on Defunkd, but I assumed it was for hardcore sellers. I didn't want to get in ...

All right, I need some advice on how to maximize my profits.

So, this is in relation to a "What's It Worth?" post in which it was suggested a Rolling Stones shirt could be worth a few hundred dollars... this was my response: "I sold that exact same Stones shirt recently, via E Bay auction, with a small bleach dab, for $9.50. If there was a way to get a few ...

Re: Here is a few more tees any info!?!?!?

I sold that exact same Stones shirt recently, via E Bay auction, with a small bleach dab, for $9.50. If there was a way to get a few hundred out of it, then I am obviously doing something very wrong.

Re: Two sports shirts: Logo 7 and Garan?

That White Sox shirt is actually Garanimals, which makes sense since it's a Youth XL.

Two sports shirts: Logo 7 and Garan?

I picked these up recently and was mainly wondering the era... I live around the Indianapolis area, so I see Logo 7 everywhere, but have no idea on the dating of the tags. I've also read different company histories and they all say something different, so I'm not sure anyone knows exactly what ...

Re: Is there a market for non-pop culture-related vintage tees?

Well, that kinda sucks that Etsy doesn't seem to take seriously bootleggers. However, at least they have a definition of what vintage is on their site. E Bay is a mess with everyone typing vintage for almost every shirt. Also, how would Etsy even be able to be on anyone's ass for a 19 year old shirt ...

Re: Is there a market for non-pop culture-related vintage tees?

Hmmm... I will have to look into Etsy. Might not be a bad idea. However, a friend of mine in town owns a boutique and gave me a rack for vintage shirts. Downside is that it takes longer to sell them and I might be able to make more money on E Bay if two people are particularity attracted to a ...

Re: German soccer jersey

Is there a good source for identifying vintage Adidas tags? I know a few, but the ones with all of the flags on them I am not too familiar with.

Oh, and no size on the tag, either.

Help dating/valuing a Megadeth shirt

Just picked this up and I've never seen one before. It has a small split on the shoulder next to the tag, as pictured. Tag says Pool Beach/VH Wear... hard to search for that. Tag says 100% cotton and it's papery. Overall, the graphics are in good shape; color is a tad faded. I'm fairly familiar with ...

Is there a market for non-pop culture-related vintage tees?

I can find three to five actual vintage shirts per Goodwill trip, but it seems like they are a hard sell on E Bay unless they are of bands/sports/pop culture icons, etc. Would these sell better as a lot? I can find a lot of random, localized stuff. Is it even worth picking these up? I mean they are ...

Hello... what vintage shirts do you actually wear?

Hi, I've dabbled a bit in collecting and selling vintage shirts (via E Bay), but seem to be getting more into it lately. We have three Goodwills here, so I can nab older shirts pretty often. Anyway, what vintage shirts do you actually wear, if any? I wear my mid-70s Purdue shirt. I'm a Boiler, but ...
