Deseret Industries prices vintage ski gear and outdoor technical clothing far below market because their donation pool skews heavily toward retiring skiers and returning missionaries offloading gear, and the Murray and Midvale DI locations specifically pull from high income Sugar House and Holladay neighborhoods meaning you will find Descente and Bogner ski suits mixed in with everyday donations far more often than at a standard Goodwill. Hit those two locations on Tuesday and Wednesday mornings when the weekend donation surge hits the floor.
Alta and Snowbird just opened early season terrain and TikTok ski aesthetic content is spiking searches for retro Obermeyer, Descente, and Bogner one piece suits ahead of peak ski season in January and February.
January missionary assignment announcements create a reliable annual buying surge from families outfitting new missionaries, and SLC thrift stores receive donated quad combinations constantly from returned missionaries creating a wide buy low sell high window.
Gorpcore aesthetic is still climbing on TikTok and Instagram with creators specifically calling out Patagonia Synchilla, early REI Co op house brand, and Marmot fleece as peak thrift grails driving search volume up 40 percent month over month on Depop and eBay.

The film camera bubble pulled mirrorless and DSLR resale prices up temporarily but entry level Canon Rebel and Nikon D3000 series bodies are now flooding Facebook Marketplace and OfferUp as families clean out closets, with sell through rates dropping and margins compressed to under 15 percent after fees.
Only buy if under $10 and bundled with lenses, standalone bodies are sitting 45 plus days with no movement.
Thrift stores in the Wasatch Front are now pricing these at near retail discovery prices because staff know the resale value, eliminating margin entirely, and Facebook Marketplace is saturated with listings that have been sitting for 60 plus days.
Skip entirely unless you find one sealed in box under $15, resale volume is down and buyers expect deals that no longer exist at source.
