‘Cashed in my lifetime karma points’: Florida furniture flipper just sold vintage set for 78x the price she got it for at a thrift store

Erin Shuford just pulled off the ultimate furniture flipping score, turning a $115 thrift store find into a massive $9,000 sale in less than 24 hours. The Florida-based furniture restorer recently managed to snag a complete, four-piece vintage Broyhill Brasilia bedroom set. She shared her work on Instagram and TikTok under refurbishedish and has nearly 35 million views. This project is easily the most impressive transformation of her five-year career.

According to Newsweek, Erin has been working full-time as a furniture flipper since the birth of her second child. After struggling with returning to a traditional job, she said she took a leap of faith to focus on her passion for restoration. It paid off with this find, when a friend spotted the set at a thrift store and immediately reached out. “I missed the call, and she sent me pictures. I almost dropped my phone when I opened her message,” Erin told the outlet.
