ryedalema Posted April 20, 2013 Share Posted April 20, 2013 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 Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/31465-ebay-brokers-in-se22-ish/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Callie Posted April 20, 2013 Share Posted April 20, 2013 Why don't you just sell your stuff on ED forum, no middle man & no fees involved. Far less complicated.

ryedalema Posted April 20, 2013 Author Share Posted April 20, 2013 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 :) Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/31465-ebay-brokers-in-se22-ish/#findComment-637365 Share on other sites More sharing options...
minder Posted April 20, 2013 Share Posted April 20, 2013 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.

Hugfrancis Posted April 21, 2013 Share Posted April 21, 2013 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.
