[munz]

cos i'm thinking of setting up a shop - for the minute i'll be doing old clothes etc, but was wondering if to broaden the scope - what wouldn't you get/qwould iycwim.

clothes? smellys? electrica stuff etc??

also if tyou do have a shop/sell regually where do you get your stock if not from home?

what * sorry really should preview

Childrens clothing in good condition and still with tags on.
You could buy off e-bay from the wholesale section.
If I could just give you some advice,if you buy off e-bay to re-sell,then have two accounts. So you have one you buy with and the other you sell on,that way people can't see what you have bought and then selling it on for.
Are you any good at crafts you could sell a few home made cards.
There are people on e-bay who will sell you lists for wholesalers. But research on the web should turn up a few results.

thanks guys, I'd forgotten about this thread! lol. thanks heavins for bumping it for me.

have sorted out mine/J's old clothes so will start there with those, also had a loko at the warehouse on ebay some of those look good, althou i'm reluctant to spend a lot of money (can't afford to loose it see so that's why I was wanting to know waht was a good seller)

[mummyemmy]

I've sold:-

-Clothes
-Re-useable nappies
-Mobile phones - beware of scams though
-I bought things with a decent label from charity shops given them a wash and sold them on! Bought one dress for £8 sold it for £38!
-Shoes / trainers
-Ornaments
-3 for 2 items

Don't bother with books on ebay sell them on Amazon unless they are really heavy as you won't get enough postage costs from Amazon.

Don't get addicted like me or else you spend every waking hour packing things in bubble wrap and queuing down the post office!
