I've got stuff from Joseph, Whistles, Agnes B - so relatively high end.

Definitely worth watching things on ebay (or other platforms) to see what similar items achieve. And also worth putting some effort into a decent listing - good photos and description.

I have a long suede coat which I would like to sell on. It's definitely vintage but in great nick; just not something I'll ever wear again. Will check out depop as well as ebay to sell it.

I sell books on Ziffit sometimes. They don't fetch huge sums of money and if I am able to get to a charity shop I'll as likely drop them off there but I get through books at an alarming rate and have usually bought them second hand anyway from either a local second hand bookshop, or a charity shop or occasionally online via WoB so happy to sell back via Ziffit.

I just sold some books via Ziffit, it's good to install the app and then wait for them to offer a bonus code which boosts the value you receive. Textbooks and nonfiction seemed to do better than fiction.

sallykate - list this as "true vintage" to help it stand out from the y2k and early 2000s stuff which is also listed as vintage!

Thanks for the advice auburnette - I bought it in a vintage shop in Amsterdam about 18 years ago, it's got quite a 70s vibe.

There's no size marked but I can measure it later; I was a size EU38 or 40 when I wore it - I'm bigger now, which is one reason for moving it on.

It's a brand called Marc Sylvain - looks like there are a few out there on vintage sites

etsy.com - similar to this but longer and in brown suede

About This Thread

Maintained by Sharkie
I looked at the declutterers thread but there are no links relevant to my question so here it is:
What are the best sites/methods for selling things, please? Who has had luck with what and where?

Clothes and musical instruments and equipment are my two most lucrative hopes. But possibly also books, vinyl, magazines and comics.
