## What is Thrift?

If you're a reseller you need to know two things about any item you find:

Its value and how fast it sells.

ThriftMagic will tell you both of these things instantly. By scanning millions of resale marketplace listings we give you the most accurate estimate of what your item is worth and all the relevant statistics on its daily, weekly, and 90-day sales volume. 

ThriftMagic makes it easy to find winning items from thrift stores, flea markets, garage sales, and anywhere else you find used goods. We even calculate eBay fees so you can instantly see what your profit will be after you sell your item.


BOOKSHELF SCANNER:

With just one photo, our bookshelf scanner can find the instant resale values of every book on a shelf, and we partner with book buyback companies so you can sell your books for cash instantly in one click.


We support many different markets including the UK and Germany!

The built-in barcode scanner gets you instant values of anything with a barcode: Books, Movies, CDs, etc!

Start treasure hunting today!


Who Is this app for?

For eBay sellers - Our app is perfect if you are an eBay seller who is looking to increase your eBay sales and quickly find out what items are worth. Compared to competing apps such as What's it worth on eBay, our app works faster, is more accurate, and provides you with sales volume stats you can't find anywhere else. If you have used What's it worth on eBay in the past and been disappointed with the results, you will find tremendous value in this app.

For students using Bookscouter - This app was inspired by our use of Bookscouter and seeing how easy it was to flip used textbooks for money. There is one problem with bookscouter though, It's only for books! Our app is highly useful for those who have used bookscouter in the past to find textbooks to sell. Unlike bookscouter our app can fetch the price of any item (but also books) so if you like money-making opportunities like selling thrifted books on bookscouter you will love this app.

For Terapeak Users - Since Terapeak insights are not available in App form, we also hope to provide a Terapeak-like experience for mobile with even more mobile-only integrated tools, (such as barcode scanners), to help you find winning eBay seller's products while you are out and about.

Anyone looking for a side hustle - If you want a fun and easy-to-start side hustle our app is for you, quickly find out what items are worth and become an eBay seller today!

### 3/5 — Try g o r n up u I iii u Ohio

*2026-07-13, version 2.9*

By t it gkhaki and try you I o

### 1/5 — 0 stars

*2026-06-15, version 2.9*

Paid for a week. Immediately canceled. Total waste!!!

### 1/5 — absolutely terrible

*2026-05-28, version 2.9*

makes you pay for pro so you can see active listings. terrible app, i rather die in the pits of hell then waste my money on here. this app should get deleted permanently.

### 1/5 — Not finding it very helpful

*2026-03-14, version 2.9*

I can’t get it to scan a bookshelf like it says then when I try to scan the books it’s with the UPC. It just keeps saying loading results won’t actually ever load them. I have a lamp that use Google lens and search for it. Took it to a couple of different dealers and it’s valued somewhere between $1800-4800. This thing shows its value between four and 500.

### 1/5 — App just doesn’t work

*2026-03-07*

Man I have tried everything possible to make this work and it won’t read anything

### 5/5 — Great for resellers

*2026-03-06*

Great app, bit pricey wish I could afford it because it’s super helpful to resellers like myself.

### 1/5 — Don’t waste your money!

*2025-12-31*

I’ve spent less than 10 seconds on this app and it’s already asking for a rating. Zero stars for you. Earn my stars AFTER I get to try out your app first! 

Edit: after trying the app it turns out that even though they offer a 7-day free trial you have to pay for the subscription upfront. But even with the subscription the app doesn’t work. It says it can read barcodes. I tried 5 different barcodes on 5 different books and it wouldn’t read them. I tried the bookshelf option and it could only read 1 book from the entire shelf. It’s not even worth the free trial!

### 5/5 — Used bookstore

*2025-12-18*

Can I use this to scan their inventory for $

### 1/5 — Paywall - don’t waste your time

*2025-12-15, version 2.9*

Everything that makes this app seem attractive is locked behind subscriptions. 

I understand that developers need to make money. But don’t make the the entire app useless unless you pay for it.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t give you the correct book

*2025-12-13*

I was so frustrated using this app. Totally excited to scan my bookshelf and get info on each book. It gave me names of other books. Nothing in the pictures I took. And I took so many pictures from all different angles and alone and with one another. Just kept giving me random books not even in my collection and nothing and I mean NOT ONE BOOK in the photos. So disappointed because I was so pumped. Deleting after only one day
