Tuesday, October 21, 2025 • Duration 29:37

Amanda here, back to talk for a minute about the title itself: Reseller. Is that what we are? Because if that's all we do, buy old clothing and resell it, there's a lot of people out there saying that we are like, SUPER-BAD for doing it.
But aren't we doing so much more than that? and even if that is all we are doing, scooping up truckloads of "used clothing" and selling it at a higher price, I genuenly don't know who that is hurting or how it would make a reseller....EVIL??
Let's discuss.
