Tips for Sellers

  • Items that are cleaned and polished not only look better but are more inviting to pick up and try on.
  • Research prices (eBay, company websites, etc.) to ensure your asking price is a fair price.
  • Accurately describe your items and include sizes where applicable.
  • Deliver items early for the best chance of them selling.
