How do you turn your used items into money? eBay? Facebook? Craigslist??

Craigslist and yard sales.

eBay will give you the widest audience possible. Negative: You gotta ship it, eBay takes 10% PayPal takes 1%

Craigslist you get cold hard cash. Negative: You gotta meet up sometimes, and high risk for flaking on day of

There are many Classifieds pages on Facebook and also once a month there is a Flea market here in Dubai.But I mostly depend on Facebook Classifieds pages,cos there won’t be any expenses involved, just upload photos on the page and interested persons will contact and pick the item from our place.

Yep, C’sList and yard sales. I made $400 selling my potted plants a few years ago. One lady from C’sList bought them all in 10 minutes. SCORE!

I used to sell (vintage clothing a and housewares) on eBay in college. Mostly to support my thrifting habit. :P But I don’t have the time and patience for that anymore.

Now vintage clothing goes to a local vintage shop. They buy the whole lot based off of what they think they can sell. And they donate and textile recycle the rest. Housewares goes to another vintage shop. Vintage furniture goes on Craigslist.

Non-vintage clothing goes to a resale shop. Toys go to a new and used toy store. Random items go into a corner in the garage for a future garage sale.

I think it helps to have an urban market. I live in the Bay Area and CL seems way more active here than in less urban areas.

“Thrifting habit”, LOL, @fluthernutter. Never heard it called that. Mostly they call me “hoarder”. The nicer ones call me a “picker”.

I acquire things about 5 times faster than I can turn them.
