The "Quick Scan" feature is designed for mobile…

My cofounder and I noticed that thrift stores were still offline, and no one had tried to solve delivery for secondhand items the way DoorDash did for food. We built Thriftled, which lists inventory from local thrift stores, lets users shop online, and handles delivery. No warehouses, no massive ops overhead — stores ship directly, and we handle the UX, payments, and logistics. We're testing with books and clothes from Value Village and a few independents. Would love your thoughts on the model, tech stack, and growth ideas.

Started PC flipping as a hobby (buying used parts, building PCs, and selling them for a small profit). Found that focusing on used parts on eBay gives the best margins - like finding a GPU 20% below market, pairing it with other deals, and selling the complete build locally. I discovered that eBay marketplaces (.com, .de, .co.uk etc.) often have different prices for the same items! Or just completely different items. So I built an eBay price scanner for PC components. It scans listings across different Ebay markets, calculates median prices, and flags anything selling below market (including…
