What’s selling?

I’ve got a pile of stuff I periodically sell from. Any tips on what might be selling recently?

For example, yesterday I remembered a pair of electric hair clippers I have and thought people might be interested in that now?

Search for the item you’re thinking of selling then set the filter to “completed sales”, you will see what similar items have recently sold for. This should give you an idea of if it’s worth selling and how much to list it for.

facemasks?

Art and craft supplies are my best seller at the moment.

I've sold a few Apple Mac bits lately.

I've sold a load of Maternity clothing, people paid well over the odds! I think people are panicking as they can't get stuff in shops.

Jigsaws seem to be going for quite a bit.

eBay seems to be booming at the moment (like all the online retailers).

I'm selling a mixture of things, some of which have been listed for a year (I list everything as BIN and then store it in my loft and forget about it until it sells).

I'm also buying random things and some clothes (bored at home)

Unusually I'm selling a lot more on Depop (all clothes and shoes) than I am on eBay at the moment - it's usually the other way round.

As 19lottie82 recommended, search for 'completed items' on eBay to see whether or not certain items sold and, if they did, what price they sold for. These days I only sell items on eBay for a fixed price/Buy it Now and I use what other similar things sold for to guide me. I used to do lots of auctions but find there's less traffic now so things end up selling for barely anything.

eBay Pulse is also useful to see what people are searching for the most.

Sorry, I just went to go on eBay Pulse myself and they seem to have got rid of it! Shame as it was useful. Completed items is still very insightful though.
