Help - Ebay and Australia

[roary]

I moved to Australia in November, before I left I had great success selling stuff on Ebay during our clearout.

I have some more things I'd like to sell but I don't think they'll sell very well on Ebay.com.au; I have been watching auctions for similar items and they don't get the same action as they would in the UK.

So, here's the question: Can I still sell on ebay.co.uk? (Still have all the relevant linked accounts). But what would I charge for postage, etc? Also, post would clearly take longer than Royal Mail...

Or do I sell on ebay.com.au and make my items internationally visible?

I'm selling mainly clothes and shoes, and some very lovely baby bits that are easily posted.

Yes it just doesn't seem to work as well with the selling. You can sell with international sellingbbut the postage would be very high. I made my niece a PE bag and it cost $19.20 to post it.

There are those mother and baby markets where people sell clothes and things.

Sigh, I know, but those market-y are just too much work....much easier with the iphone app!

If I could lean on a friend in the UK I could probably send her the things and have her sell them (or sell them and have her post them)....

You could surface mail them to her.

Are you quite sure you wouldn't do well in Aus? You can't move in Sydney for British expats moaning reminiscing about some bit of baby kit their sister in London uses 30 times a day but they can't get in Aus.

I'd have a garage sale before I bothered to box it up and post it. It's a pretty big ask of your friend. People are forever asking me to list stuff on eBay for them because they know I use it myself. I had to start refusing - it is really time-consuming (I suppose that's why they don't do it themselves). I was seriously thinking about doing it in my neighbourhood for a 60% cut while I was on maternity leave.
