NOT Just An Old Charity Op Shop Jumper

Introduction

Welcome back to the channel! If you're new here, you're in for a treat. Today, I've received a very special delivery that means more to me than just its contents. I’ll share that in a moment, but first, we’ll draw the winner of the recent competition I announced. By the way, it’s Emma’s birthday today, and although she has some presents already, the most exciting stuff just arrived. So, let’s get started!

Sales Update

On Vinted, we’ve sold the PS3 version of Skate for £4.99, which is fantastic considering it was part of a £35 bundle that has already generated about £80 in sales—pure profit! Additionally, from that same bundle, we sold a RAB Power Stretch Pro hoodie for £29.71. It’s a great top, but unfortunately, not in my color.

Over on eBay, we sold a pair of Samuel Windsor shoes for $ 18.99. I can’t seem to find them right now, but trust me when I say they're nice! We also sold a smaller box of chess pieces for £11 and a set of Tekken player cards for £13.24.

I picked up some Sony speakers for £4.50, which sold for £134. This is why I love selling online—those numbers just bring me joy! I also sold a Viking board game for £18.99, having only paid £3.50 for it.

Lastly, two micro Viking cars were sold for £11 all in. Now, let’s move on to the special package I've been eagerly anticipating— it took about a month to arrive from Australia, and I've been dying to open it.

A Special Delivery and a Heartfelt Story

Around ten years ago, I was going through an incredibly difficult time in my life. I was homeless and sofa surfing, so I shared my struggles on Facebook— a format I don’t use anymore. During this time, a man named Josh from Australia, who I was following on Facebook, noticed my posts and reached out.

Josh was starting to gain traction in his career at the time, and he offered me help when I needed it most. It was the kindness of strangers that helped me rebuild my life. He emphasized helping others without needing recognition, a lesson I took to heart and have tried to apply in my life since then.

Fast forward to two months ago, I stumbled upon Josh’s posts again, and I discovered he had launched a jumper drop. I decided to order one not just to support him, but as a thank-you for everything he did for me.

Now, let’s open this package together!

Unboxing the Jumper

As I open the package, I can see Josh's branding, which brings back a flood of memories. The jumper design—and the quality—is just stunning; it represents a journey of support and kindness that sparked from a Facebook post years ago.

It’s not just any jumper; it's a symbol of gratitude towards someone who helped me in my darkest moments. I’m excited to sport this and hope it prompts conversations about kindness and helping others. The quality of the embroidery and the design is impressive, which speaks to how far Josh has come in his career.

As I slip on my new jumper, I feel a mixture of pride and gratitude. It’s not just about the fashion statement; it’s about appreciating the goodness in people.
