I just recently participated in a women's/teens clothing conignment sale. The person who ran the sale also does a twice-a-year children's clothing and accessories consignment sale that I also participate in. I always do very well when I do the children's sale - I haven't ever made less than $300.
Well, the women's sale was not so successful. There could be several reasons for this - first time, only two days vs. a week for the children's sale, in a different location than the children's sale and the customer base may not have wanted to drive. Anyway, I brought home over half of my items. These are good clothes - Ann Taylor, LOFT, Banana Republic, White House Black Mkt. etc. They are all hung, tagged and priced. The clothes are too good to sell at a garage sale. There is no way I can let them go for prices that low. So, I was thinking of trying to sell them on eBay. I've never done this, so I wanted to get opinions from those who have. Do clothes sell on eBay? Does it cost alot to do this? Any advice, how to's or personal experience info. on eBay selling will be helpful. Thanks.
