Ebay brokers in SE22 (ish) ?

A friend told me that some people make a good few bob going round to people's houses and sorting out things for selling on Ebay. Then do all the admin stuff for you for a small commission. So you basically get a spring cleansed home and extra cash, while someone does your legwork for you. Does anyone around here do this? Or know anyone that does? Our house could do with a right old going over.


All advice really welcome. x

Oh if only :(


We have loads of stuff to pass on, and have sold plenty on the EDF before...but our lifestyles are such that we need someone to just take the whole lot off our hands and sort it for us. When you think what's involved:


- taking all the photos

- writing all the descriptions

- answering all the qs

- waiting in for people to view (and possible no-shows)....


having someone do the whole thing for you at 10% ish commission is very attractive :)

I looked into this a while ago as I sell lots for charity. Never got round to taking up their services but the people are called Trading Assistants and you can find them on ebay. Don't know if they actually come to sort out your stuff but you either have to get it to them or some do collect and then do everything for you.


There's one in my area (SE24) and one in SE23 who works within a 5 mile radius of SE23.


Type in Trading Assistants in google and it will take you to the page on ebay where you can find out more.

I could do this for you. I have had an eBay account since they started, and currently hold a 100% star rating (important when potential buyers are weighing up whether to buy from you). As I am putting my 'reputation' on the line, I would need to put honest descriptions of the goods you want to sell, and I might advise you that certain items are not worth the effort. Unless the item is too bulky to post, it is very unlikely that anyone will ask to view first. When sold, someone needs to wrap and post the item - I could do this too if you would prefer.

    • We’ve got a gap on the roof of our shed that needs patching  don’t want to buy a huge roll so hoping someone has some leftover  happy to collect/reimburse 
    • I never said I thought it was targeted or deliberate. There also has never been a “stand off” or confrontation, we’ve spoken to them in a friendly manner about it. Our experience is they don’t seem to care. That’s the frustrating thing for us, if someone politely raises a concern at least take a second to reflect. Treat others how you would want to be treated.  I don’t want them to lose their job, far from it. But considering it could cost me a days work to fix any damage, I’m within my right to try prevent it.   
    • The SE22 Evri delivery family are lovely, and always say hello wherever we spot them in the area. We gave them a box of chocolates during Covid as they were working their socks off at Christmas
    • What was he doing on the stage at Glastonbury? Or on the stage at the other concert in Finsbury Park? Grinning like a Cheshire cat whilst pissed and stoned 20 somethings on the promise of free internet sung-- Oh Jeremy Corbyn---  What were his policies for Northern mining towns with no jobs or infrastructure? Free Internet and university places for youngsters. What were his other manifesto pledges? Why all the ambiguity over Brexit?  I didn't like Thatcher, Blair or May or Tony but I respected them as politicians because they stood by what they believed in. I respect all politicians across the board that stick to their principles. Corbyn didn't and its why he got  annihilated at the polls. A socialist, anti imperialist and anti capitalist that said he voted for an imperialist and pro capitalist cabal. He refused to say how he'd vote over and over again until the last knockings. He did so to appease the Islington elite and middle class students he was courting. The same people that were screaming that Brexit was racist. At the same time the EU were holding black and Asian immigrants in refugee camps overseas but not a word on that! Corbyn created and courted a student union protest movement that screamed at and shouted down anyone not on the left . They claimed Starmer and the centre right of labour were tories. He didn't get elected  because he, his movement and policies were unelectable, twice. He turned out not to have the convictions of his politics and died on his own sword.    Reform won't win an election. All the idiots that voted for them to keep out Labour actually enabled Labour. They'll be back voting tory next time.    Farage wouldn't be able to make his millions if he was in power. He's a very devious shyster but I very much doubt he'd actually want the responsibility that governance requires.
