I have heard of resellers sourcing at the goodwill outlet /bins (purchase price under $1) and then selling immediately to platos for a quick flip. The downsides - you’ll probably only make a few dollars per item and you need to be very aware of what platos is purchasing at that time.

- Plato's Closet didn't take ANYTHING : r/declutter - Reddit
I've been decluttering some clothes and I brought in a decent amount of stuff to Plato's Closet, thinking I might make a couple of dollars before I give the rest to either Goodwill or Thread Up. However, Plato's Closet didn't take ANYTHING today and I was pretty disappointed.
I really like Plato’s closet. Yes they have fast fashion but what thrift store doesn’t? I also look for quality fabrics and natural fibers and can usually find them at the same price as the synthetic stuff, whereas value village or goodwill would mark up the price a ton.

- Summary: Pros and Cons List
Since Plato’s Closet’s business model runs off of buying their items from its customers, I figured this would be a good place to start. If you have gently used items laying around in your closet, you may want to consider bringing them into Plato’s Closet to sell.
The next part of our Plato’s Closet review involves the shopping aspect. We will go over the types of items you can expect to find, pricing, and shopping strategies.
Plato’s Closet advertises that they sell their items at 70% off of the retail price. Although this will vary, you can find extremely good deals and deep discounts. Here is a typical range of pricing for each type of item, although this will widely vary depending on the brand. 1. Dresses: $8-$12 2. Tops: $5-$10 3. Jeans: $12-$30 4. Coats and Jackets...
This wouldn’t be a full Plato’s Closet review if we didn’t talk about how to get an even deeper discount on already extremely affordable items.
Dollar Days
One of the most exciting days for Plato’s Closet customers is their Dollar Days sale. Typically this sale takes place over a weekend. With this sale, clearance items are placed in bins outside and around the store, with each item only being $1! While you can still find some gems and good essential pieces with this sale, it is important to know that the dollar days items were all once deeply discounted clearance items that never sold.
$1, $2, $3 Clothing Item Sales
In recent years, many Plato’s Closet stores have adopted an even better sale day that beats Dollar Days. With this sale, stores run a promo for all items within a section. For example, my local Plato’s Closet held a $2 dress sale. The best and most shocking part is that ALL dresses in the store were $2- not just clearance items! It is safe to say I went a little crazy when I was shopping this sale… And I’m not ashamed to say I came home with over 100 dresses. I have also seen $2 long sleeves/...
The "Totes" Sale
Another popular sale day at Plato’s Closet is the totes sale. With this sale, Plato’s Closet gives out a tote bag to each customer. From here, customers can go around the store and fill the bag to the brim. The promo gives customers 30% off each item inside the bag.
Plato’s Closet accepts returns from its customers. However, there is a certain timeline and only select items are allowed to be returned. Clothing items are returnable within 7 days. You have to bring in the original receipt and the tags must be attached. If the tags are present but not attached, you may be denied the return. That is because there ...
