<p>[QUOTE="Lucille.b, post: 3323287, member: 51"]My neighbor sells on Ebay, but also on the RealReal (mentioned in first post). She gets her inventory from thrift stores, just does this part time for some good pocket money. For the most lucrative sales, you have to know upper, upper end brands, many are not household names. She recently got a leather shirt -- I'm here to tell you I would not have taken a 2nd look at this on the rack and I'm fairly tuned into this kind of thing because there is money to be made. Think long sleeve shirt, in sort of a suede look. Well here it retails for $4K!! She sent it to St. Louis on her own dime to be professionally cleaned by some place that specializes in this kind of thing, I think it might have been this brand (Eskandar) in a shorter cut, and lighter color. This Ebay listing for one sold for almost $3K.</p><p><br /></p><p><a href="https://www.ebay.com/itm/Amazing-NEW-Eskandar-DARK-BROWN-Soft-Suede-Leather-40-034-Long-Shirt-1-3995-/233748333545?hash=item366c7c83e9%3Ag%3AirQAAOSwmuBfihY9&nma=true&si=zex4bJZlwdU%252FOIkLmgXQ9nHMITw%253D&orig_cvip=true&nordt=true&rt=nc&_trksid=p2047675.l2557" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://www.ebay.com/itm/Amazing-NEW-Eskandar-DARK-BROWN-Soft-Suede-Leather-40-034-Long-Shirt-1-3995-/233748333545?hash=item366c7c83e9%3Ag%3AirQAAOSwmuBfihY9&nma=true&si=zex4bJZlwdU%252FOIkLmgXQ9nHMITw%253D&orig_cvip=true&nordt=true&rt=nc&_trksid=p2047675.l2557" rel="nofollow">https://www.ebay.com/itm/Amazing-NEW-Eskandar-DARK-BROWN-Soft-Suede-Leather-40-034-Long-Shirt-1-3995-/233748333545?hash=item366c7c83e9:g:irQAAOSwmuBfihY9&nma=true&si=zex4bJZlwdU%2FOIkLmgXQ9nHMITw%3D&orig_cvip=true&nordt=true&rt=nc&_trksid=p2047675.l2557</a></p><p><br /></p><p>She tried it on for me, my neighbor is beautiful and stylish, and I have to say the shirt did nothing for me unlike some other designer items I've seen her find.
