He typically makes most of his money finding valuable clothing items, purchasing them for way less than what they are worth, and selling them at a higher price.
In a recent TikTok, Cam revealed that he found a vintage, 90’s Tupac t-shirt being sold at his local Goodwill store for just $6.
The shirt has his face and then the lyrics of one of Tupac’s popular songs called How Long Will They Mourn Me?
Once Cam saw the Rose Deal tag revealing that it is, in fact, vintage, he was able to sell it on eBay for $105.

However, followers were quickly in his comments telling him that he priced it too low as that shirt starts at $125 at other online retailers.
Regardless, the reseller was able to make a nearly $100 profit.

In fact, Cam found a few Lululemon shirts and leggings that were priced low that he was able to sell for a higher price for a great profit.
He also found a Peter Millar vest at Goodwill for just under $7 that he was able to sell for almost $40.
While the profit on all of his items isn't individually massive, the return is since he buys and sells tons on a daily basis.
NIFTY THRIFTING
Thrifting can be a tough task, which is why you should always have a plan before purchasing.
It may be helpful to call your local store ahead of time to see if they have any specialties.
This will then help identify which items to look for and could cut back on your search process.
Next is to give yourself a clear goal - this means making a plan of what you decide to buy and then sticking to it.
It could be helpful to take note of the things you already have, then a list of the things you’re looking for - avoiding those impulse buys.
Next up is to check when each local store restocks.
Most stores will likely be busiest on the weekend, and many of the popular items may be gone.
Lastly, learn how to discern quality.
This may take some research as many stores offer designer brands or vintage items.
Learning about quality materials and specific brands to understand what you should look for before buying may be helpful.
