Vinted expert? Sell clothes

[Amy83]

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?

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) 😀
