Clothes Not Selling On eBay?

[@parttimehustle6236]

Thanks for another helpful video. Lots of good points. I wonder if the reason people price their items too high is that they're doing a crappy job sourcing. It's hard to price mall brand/middle-of-the-road clothing competitively on eBay if you're paying $5-7 an item. You have to find clearance stores or at the very list find out when items go half price and then you be there early on that day and focus on those tags.

Thanks for the love! Yup, that is a HUGE problem. People tell me what they bought to resell, but then tell me what they paid and I cringe. It takes a long time to understand that passing on items that are too expensive is okay

I'm definitley that description guy hahaha. I always assumed it wasn't that important. Time to fix that

[@ResellJunkie]

Haha a ton of buyers don’t even look at the description which is crazy to me 🤷‍♀️

Clothes scare me, I'll stick to electronics!

[@ResellJunkie]

Electronics are awesome, they have just dried up in my area :( The thrift stores all pick it out and send to auction.

@@ResellJunkie That is not good, at least there are plenty of clothes.

Short time watcher, first time commenter. Do you buy the majority of your inventory through thrift stores? How many listings do you try to keep active?

[@ResellJunkie]

99% comes from thrift stores right now. The minimum I want is 400ish, but I’m trying to get back to 1000 listings now!

@@ResellJunkie how much do you make with 400 listings? do i need 1000 listings to make 5,000 take home monthly? im at 200 and pushing now

[@ResellJunkie]

@@shadowspond3488 Right now we’re at 15ish thousand in sales for the month, but it’s been a really great month. If you have 400 great items, yes I think you can make $5000 a month.

@@ResellJunkie What do you do with the items that aren't selling? Do you just keep them there or do you return them to the store?

[@shadowspond3488]

Some resellers blow my mind at how bad they are. they might have 4000 items, but their cover photo is a tag or a photo that is off center. Really?

[@ResellJunkie]

Yeah lol it’s crazy. Some people just get a bunch of low quality listings up and don’t take even a minute to make them slightly better

Depends if your market for the item is a zombie then 2-3 pics of nothing maybe all you need. Again this is an easy call...simply use the sales metrics and analyze if it matters. Look thru the placard pictures in the solds...how much time do you need to spend on that? The game in 2021 is sourcing..every second lost not sourcing is costing you $$$. Pictures really do not matter that much. This is not 2008 when it mattered. Any decent phone takes good-enough.
