Unfortunately we have recently had a bereavement and are trying to deal with the estate. The house is on the market but we need to clear the contents in the best way possible. There's quite a bit of 60s retro stuff that seems to sell well on ebay like midwinter china and g-plan furniture and I think if we go down the house clearance firm route we will end up giving it away.
We're starting with the cupboards so we can still show the house but eventually everything will have to go - it doesn't help that we live a 3 hour drive from the house so each time we go we bring back more stuff which is now cluttering up our home.
So I'm wondering if anyone has done something like this and has any tips, for example:
- the best time to list of ebay
- can I write descriptions and save to list at best time
- logistics of selling furniture at a distance - I thought photo and give collection window
- easiest way to sell a lot of stuff
- anything else
I feel a bit overwhealmed by it all, but the boxes are building up here so I need to get started...
