Hello I have a lot of clothes that I have been meaning to sell online for a while and I know i wont get round to it

I wondered if anyone knew of a service that will sell these for me and take a cut? Or wanted to do this themselves and take 40%?

I thought a school/ university student who wanted to earn some extra cash may be keen?

(I have also given a lot to the charity shops in East Dulwich)

Thanks

Amy

You could try posting them on here in the for sale section?

I have just started buying stuff on Vinted, but I think selling online  is a bit of a faff and  maybe not worth it unless they are expensive designer clothes or especially sought after, especially if you are paying someone else to do it.

Apart from the admin side, it's all got to be packed up, labelled and taken to the despatch point.

Unless there are ways of doing it which I don't know about!

What I meant was, it may not be worth your while if you have to pay someone to do it, unless they are very expensive clothes.

Are you going to ask them to take the pix as well?

To do it properly ie to get reasonable value you should be aware that there is a huge amount or work involved - photos write up, not to mention packaging etc etc.
If you have lots of clothes and you are short of time then why not become community spirited and give them to a charity shop?

  • Agree 1

80pc of the value comes from 20pc of the inventory.

I'd suggest running through it and putting into 3 heaps:

A - quality branded. Depending on how much there is in this category, you might then be able to find someone for a 'split the profits' offer. 

C - un-sellable by charity (marked, damaged). To a "clothes by the KG" service.

B - everything else. Donate to charity. 

I agree that selling items online can be a bit of a faff but the ebay app makes  it easier these days to put photos on, set a postage rate, descriptions, etc. I’ve been buying and selling on eBay for quite a while now and it can be hit and miss with the selling and it does take a bit of time, buying the packaging, taking it to the post office (which I use to send everything I sell) but it can be a way to make a bit of spare cash. 
I sell bits on eBay for myself and for a charity I support. I’ve been selling bits on this forum for my charity but this is a bit hit and miss as well.  
If the OP pms me maybe I might be able to help and sell her clothes for her (and me) 😀

    • According to what I can see online, Dynamic Vines and Cave de Bruno sell totally different kinds of wine to each other.  Dynamic Vines  "work with independent winemakers who produce outstanding wine using sustainable practices in the vineyard and minimal intervention in the cellar".  Cave de Bruno specialises in French wines and spirits from small independent producers. So two different USPs, and no doubt two different but overlapping customer bases who can afford these wines. Probably different again to the people mainly  shopping for wine at Majestic or the Co op. On the other hand, the two empanada shops appear on the face of it to be selling virtually identical products. But time will tell, won't it? Let's see how they are both doing in - say - a couple of years' time. Impossible, of course, to compare that with how they would have done if there had been only one of them. I just feel more  sorry for the original one than for  the one which can apparently already afford to have a number of shops in places like Mayfair and Highgate. I'm tempted to buy something there every week, and I don't even like that kind of pastry 🤣
    • Not only can he turn olive oil into Vermouth, but also water into a wine. A true miracle worker.  I wouldn't say a wine shop sells a wide variety of things - and there are two right next to each other.  And once upon a time, upmarket pizza shops were very specific. So were burritos etc. These Argentinian cornish pasties are clearly becoming mainstream; we should consider ourselves lucky to be witnessing this exciting upward trend within our lifetimes and on OUR HIGH STREET. We can tell our grandkids that we remember when there was no internet and no empanadas.  I'm sure that if the family empanada people have a good business head, they'll be able to ride this wave of competition, just like Bruno has. 
    • Very economical. Are you available for events? I've got a gathering of 5000 coming up soon. What could you knock up with two little fishes and five loaves of bread? Cod in breadcrumbs? Fish finger sandwiches? Spanish-style croquetas de bacalao with a Romesco sauce? It's BYOB for beer, so there's no need to worry about that and I've managed to do an unbelievable deal on water and wine. Drop me a DM on here or ask for Dave or Jesus (pronounced 'Hay-Zooze') in The Herne, left hand side of the bar.
