Helping you earn your first $1,000.
I'm Timothy Hales — a shoe reseller, content creator, and founder of ResellingShoes.com. This site exists for one reason: to help part-time resellers earn their first $1,000 flipping everyday shoes.
Not Jordans. Not limited drops. Everyday brands — Merrell, Dansko, New Balance, Brooks, KEEN — the kind of shoes sitting on thrift store shelves every single day, mostly ignored.
I've done over $100,000 in gross shoe sales sourced almost entirely from Goodwill, yard sales, and estate sales. No sneaker connections, no reseller network, no special access — just a system that works when you apply it consistently.
Most reselling content online is built for people chasing Jordans and limited drops. That's a different game — one that requires insider connections, a lot of capital, and a tolerance for thin margins on high-risk inventory.
This site is for a different kind of reseller: someone with a Goodwill nearby, a few hours a week, and a willingness to learn a repeatable system. What to buy, how to clean and photograph it, how to price it, and how to ship it without eating your margin.
That system became The $1,000 Shoe Reselling Method (free) — the 5-step overview I wish I'd had at the start. And for resellers ready to go deeper, The Everyday Shoe Flip is the complete 74-page playbook.
I also built SoleScore — a tool that lets you photograph a shoe in the thrift store aisle and get a resale score in seconds. It's in beta now and free to try.
