Have lots to sell-can anyone recommend the best on-line store to have(Amazon,e-bay etc)??

Hi,

I have lots of baby clothing and equipment to sell-all used and in great condition. I was thinking of selling on the forum, but then thought that having an on-line store would be the best way to go.

I've looked at selling on-bay(you pay a monthly cost which seems like another debt!), then looked at Amazon sell a little where you pay a small cost per item(pence) rather than a monthly installment.

Would just like to know if anyone has experience(good or bad) of any of the above on-line stores and just some general advice really.

Thank you!xxx

Buttercup, I sell on my daughters used stuff to afford to buy the next stage of toys or clothes and wouldn't use anything but eBay or the forum. eBay is a huge platform for selling and buying with an enormous reach. I would go elsewhere. Yes I pay fees but it's worth it for the additional monies earned, plus I like my paypal account to be rolling constantly. Each month they just send me and email detailing fees and automatically take them from my paypal account, I don't see it as a debt at all. I don't think amazon is worth selling on although I haven't ever researched fully. I hope this helps somewhat.

Thanks GinaG3. Yes I like the idea of a constanly rolling paypal account. Nice to hear from someone who actually uses a different selling platform other than the forum,just to know how it is.

Thanks for your helpful reply

We used Gumtree recently, the free option. Though for an office move rather than children's clothes / toys. No costs and struggled to keep up with the interest it generated! Then of course there's preloved, again a free option.

yes, edf, ebay and gumtree all good.

ebay does take a cut so i prefer the others!! but for stuff thats more unusual i think you get a wider audience.
