I mean, people also don't go checking around every sale for items. But I would be curious to know what lengths OP goes to to identify items.

Identifying is the problem. It’s usually when I think “wtf why is this more expensive on eBay” when buying something for myself.

Then I check the number sold and think “oh someone is making some money here”

I don’t do anything special and realise I may have got lucky with this one.

I found another item like this in theory but I listed on this week and it hasn’t sold. So we will see.
