Marketplace<br />
Facebook Marketplace is hot on eBay’s heels as the best<br />
place to swap your clutter for cash. The best part is there<br />
are no fees, so the profit is all yours.<br />
Like Gumtree, Facebook Marketplace is used to sell locally.<br />
It’s a platform many of us are already familiar with too, which<br />
means you can keep up to date with friends and family, and<br />
clear some space in your house, all from one website.<br />
Similar to Depop, but with a slightly older target<br />
audience, Vinted is a huge online marketplace for<br />
selling clothes, with millions of users. Upmarket high<br />
street brands tend to do better. Bagged a popular Zara<br />
handbag that sold out within days? You can probably<br />
sell it for twice the price on Vinted.<br />
There are no fees for uploading or selling your items<br />
on Vinted, but there is a small fee to the buyer.<br />
Top tips<br />
for selling<br />
Spend time taking good pictures<br />
Photograph your items in a well-lit area of your<br />
house or garden, and from multiple angles.<br />
The more descriptive, the better<br />
Pad out your listing with as much information as<br />
you can, including dimensions, condition and your<br />
reason for selling.<br />
Be honest<br />
Reviews are key to building your online selling<br />
profile, so avoid the temptation to skim over any<br />
defects in your listing.<br />
Think seasonally<br />
Certain items, like garden furniture, will fetch a<br />
higher price in the summer, while warm woolly<br />
jumpers will do better in the winter.<br />
