A THRIFT reselling expert has suggested shoppers visit a site ripe with high-reward, profitable finds.
In a YouTube video, the thrifter explained how to resell parts from his second-hand bulk box for hundreds in profit.
The YouTuber (@EpikBricks) purchased a box of Legos for $60 on BlueBox.
BlueBox is a Goodwill off-shoot that sells bulk boxes of mystery items in categories like jewelry or jeans.
The site sells boxes of jewelry for $44.99 and 30 counts of Levi's Jeans for $129.99.
The company calls itself the "lowest cost source for resellers to find sustainable and socially responsible wholesale clothing, jewelry, accessories, and more."

Customers can buy bulk pallets they pick up with their vehicles at Goodwill locations.
They can also purchase bulk boxes shipped to private residences for a small fee.
The YouTuber used the site to find his box of Legos - several parts of his bulk buy were worth several times the initial cost.

"I just really like the idea that there could be literally anything in this Lego mystery box," the content creator said.
"This one did not disappoint."
A few Lego components at the top of the box netted several dollars in profit.
A Spider-Man and Lego collaboration toy is estimated to sell for $1 - another large baseplate sells for $7.
But the YouTuber found a Maersk-branded Lego that indicated the box had a full train set.
Maersk, a Danish shipping and logistics company, collaborated with Lego to make a limited-time train set that the YouTuber said was worth up to $400.
The YouTuber said only the complete set could generate the total profit, but individual pieces are valuable because they are made in a one-of-a-kind Lego blue.
Some separate pieces can sell for $1 to $25 each.
The content creator said that the train set made the box profitable - but other pieces made the bulk buy worth even more.
"Even though I'm laser-focused on finding parts for the train now, I still [have to] keep my eyes peeled for other parts of interest," the reseller advised.
