A $100 Couch Set Sold For $1,580 in 1 Day

  • Bentley Taggart

  • Couch Flipper
  • $3,500 profit in 12 hours

Bentley Taggart is 17 and flips couches off KSL, which is basically Craigslist for Utah.

He explains the bit that changed his margins…

I snap a picture of it, upload it into AI… give me a good looking background with a home that’s furnished and make it look super good. Keep the couch exactly the way it is, though.

Before this he carried each couch inside to photograph it, about 20 minutes a time.

One listing had two white couches at $200, shot in dark lighting with the cushions flat.

He talked the seller down to $100, set the pair up as a sectional, and listed them at $1,780.

A buyer Venmo’d him $1,580 that night πŸ€‘

He’s cleared about $3,500 profit from 11-12 hours total.

Stuck on KSL because Facebook Marketplace kicked him off for being under 18 πŸ˜•

Buy something cheap and bulky, then let AI put a nice room behind it before you relist.
