Making a bit of cash off of Ebay

I have mentioned before that i am very poor and a shopoholic. Being a shopoholic i have a stupid amount of clothes in my wardrobe, like it's shocking how many items i have! i don't even wear them all! i have decided i am going to sell on Ebay. I am a lover of Ebay and a frequent buyer so i thought.. why not!

I'm just a beginner in the Ebay game but I'm gonna tell you how I'm doing it. 

First of, i went through all my clothes, EVERY SINGLE ITEM, and asked these three questions;

'Do i like it?' - what's the point in having clothes if you don't even like it.

'Do i wear it?' - Yes i may love it, but if it is too small or too big i won't be able to wear it!

'Will i wear it?' - If it is a bit tight now, i might be able to lose some weight to fit into them but if they are a size 8 and I'm a size 12, i don't think my arse will be fitting into them jeans anytime soon.

After sorting them out, i look at the condition of the clothes, only the best conditioned items can be sold online as Ebay has strict rules on supplying the best. The best can be sold online, the rest you can either recycle at a clothes bank or donate to charity shops such as Oxfam and Bernados. 

You have now your clothes to sell. Sometimes by adding a quirk to them
will bump up the value. Such as baggy denim jeans are not in fashion and wouldn't be bought for much. By cutting them shorter making them into boyfriend shorts and maybe dip dying them. You can increase the value and sell them for £6 or £7. Thats what i have done and i have put them online for £6. 

I have dip dyed, bleach splattered and tie dyed the shorts i have in hope the value will be increased! There are so many sites telling you how to dye shorts and the instructions are easy to follow as well. You can go wild designing them! You can buy coloured dye and sew on badges, make these clothes interesting and one of a kind, the more unique they are, the more chance someone will want to buy them.

Once thats all done, you need to upload the product. Make sure you title the product right. Naming the product 'sexy indie tie dye shorts' will not gain the views you want but calling it 'women's Tie dye shorts size 14' will. Also the picture needs to be good. A clear picture showing the product. You can have 14 pictures uploaded for free. So take close up shots of the front, back and buttons. So the buyers can see as much as the product as they can.

It costs about 80p to put the item up but it will be worth it when you can get a profit! 

Im hoping to earn a little bit of cash from selling online and to get rid of a few clothes!
