Well Burbank and Probstein, full fledged businesses for which this is their livelihood, of course have to be at least mostly sellers or investors. Probstein isn’t even selling things he or his business owns, they are consignment.
You can do both, you can do one or the other. Depends what you mean by successful, but if we’re talking full businesses like these, they are all going to be primarily or entirely sellers. Someone selling opportunistically or extras on the side is in another ballpark as someone who does this to pay the bills as their daily job for them and their family.
