STYLETHREAD -- LET'S TALK SHOP!

It went ok.  Warning: Vent coming ahead. . .

I made $100, but I was really dissapointed how low I had to go to sell my stuff.  I swear almost everything I sold went for 50 cents!  And they were my daughers brand name newborn clothes, she only wore some things once or twice so they were brand new.  I looked up some of the clothes on ebay and they were selling for 3-4 dollars a piece used.  I also sold my brothers Levi's Jeans, he lost a lot of weight within 12 months, so he hardly got any wear out of them.  I was asking $5 and I no one wanted them, I ended up letting them go for $2 a piece!  I also checked on ebay and they were going for about $8 ea!

I think it was the area, we live in an apartment so I had to lug my stuff across town to my friends house.  She kept telling me that around that area there are a lot of low income families and I wouldnt get more than 50 cents for a piece of clothing regardless of whether they still had the tags attached.

But for the $100 I made and the little amount of stuff I actually got rid of, it went well for a 1st timer.  I was definitely a learning experience.  We're having another one in 2 weeks, and this time I'm taking out all our new stuff & selling that on ebay.  The other junk I don't mind selling for 50 cents.

Thanks for asking
