Today we explore an article that was written by Consumer Affairs titled "Secondhand is quickly becoming the new way to shop and save". But is it new?

I was an early blogger back in 2006 and built a small following discussing anything and everything about thrifting. I evolved from thrifter to online seller, to antique dealer and eventually became an estate liquidator. I work too much and lack a creative outlet, aside from staging and photographing inanimate objects. Speaking, instead of writing, will be my (with hope) creative outlet. I'm just testing the waters here and in this initial and short podcast, I am discussing the dark side of the business: too much inventory and never enough time. What looks to be an exciting business, is actually all consuming at times. The last section was added because of a needed edit so forgive the awkward, amateur first attempt. Thanks for listening.
