Anybody sold childrens clothes bundles on ebay?

Do they sell if there are not many branded items (i.e. mostly Tesco)?

Is it worth putting anything on MN?

I sold a load of girl's clothes on ebay - they were mainly tesco, asda and ethel austin.

I didn't put any make in the listing, just what the clothes were, ie: 6 vests, 7 sleepsuits, 4 pairs of trousers - etc. and took a couple of pictures of the prettiest clothes on their own and one of the whole bundle.

Have sold two lots (need to do more, need to do more) and both went for a resasonable amount of money - nothing earth-shattering, but more than I expected, defo enough to make it worthwhile.

On another slightly different tack, I bought a bundle of boy's clothes that arrived last week and I was most surprised to find that a lot of them were designer tags (was expecting george and tesco tbh)

I have sold a few bundles (only 4-5 things in on at most though) and tried to put one next thing in each so could be picked up by the search engine.

iv sold some bundles, went for pitance, even tho there was a lot of next and gap etc. i put a load of stuff on here, and made more money, although was still cheap to those who brought....then put what people didnt want on here on ebay!

If you put on your item title 56 items or whatever, I noticed that more people bid on these. The sellers also add lots of pics so you can see what you are getting. Like all of the tops or all of the trousers or some outfits. Photographing it all on a blanket isn't a very good way to display stuff, from what I have seen.
Good luck. 8 bin bags, blardy hell!!

Well I have sifted my 8 bin bags down to 4 bags (1 was actually duvets and curtains - didn't realise until I opened it)...taken out some stuff for DD3, thrown some 'non sellable' stuff...can't decide what to do for the best.

I may put a bundle of newborn/0-3 stuff on where I have DTDs and DD3s stuff making a big bundle, and quite a bit if Next & M&S (pressies!!!) and see how it goes.

Thanks for your comments...

Do you need the cash. Cos it really doesn't cost you anything to sell on Ebay as people pay for postage.

I would iron the curtains. I recently sold some on there. Definitely as people will always need curtains. Measure them, providing they are sellable.

The childrens clothes. Newborn 0-3 forget it, unless they are named. Just done it and no one is interested. Possibly because summer is coming so people are thinking of nothing but vests & dresses for DD's.

Save everything up if you can until the right season. If your stuff is for a winter baby etc. Then sell in mahoosive bundles.

I haven't actually done this yet. I tried to sell a bundle of LO 0-3 recently but they were winter really. If we can make it up to 0-6months and have tons of items, I reckon both of us should sell.

I was going to take cutains to charity shop actually (as I think that all but oe set are not really saleable).

Won't try the newborn clothes then thanks for that. And yes I was deffo going to watch the seasons...

We have a big car boot sale near here where I can get rid of most of it - its justa bit more hastle...
