My sister does this. She makes a few thousand a month selling stuff on ebay that she picks out of the bins at Goodwill in Portland.
I went up there for Christmas to help automate her workflow. She was doing it on Gen 1 Surface which was less than ideal. So I gave her my old computer. She actually likes digging through the bins looking for gems. It is just listing them on eBay that is pain since she has to wash the stuff and then take pictures and write up a description and list things.
She has a good eye. I went to the bins with with her and she would pull out a pair of yoga pants and say should could get 60 bucks for them. And she did.
So there is a bit of skill involved. But she consistently makes a nice chunk of change and I would say about 95% of what she lists get sold.
