Back in the day – 20+ yrs ago – my dad used to make shirts and caps. Now what I mean by that is he would buy plain t-shirt and baseball caps and put felt letters/numbers on them with a heat press. It was mostly custom order work, but he made enough to warrant buying the supplies.
Well, not 10 minutes ago he comes to my room and was like, “wanna make some money selling stuff on e-bay or craigslist?” I waited and he told me he wanted to sell his t-shirt and cap heat press and a few boxes of felt letters/numbers…and apparently I’d get to keep some sort of money from that.
There are a few downsides to this. The people who buy have to be local – as in close enough to dive to a neutral location and pick them up because (according to my dad) they weigh about 50 lbs (I don’t know if that’s the shirt press or the cap press), but if they get shipped, shipping would be included in the price. I’m leaning towards not being shipped, unless through FedEx or UPS because I do not want any postal workers having to deal with overly heavy packages. That’s just cruel.
But anyways, he’s going to give me the model numbers and I’m going to do some research to see how much they’re worth, if any have sold on e-bay/craigslist and how much they sold for.
