Have Had Enough of Ebay

Sick and fed up of dozy buyers.

Where else can I sell good quality Brand New or Nearly New clothing from my own wardrobe without this hassle?

    Ebid, Tazbar, Loot, local paper etc.

    Amazon?

    There is a website for selling/swapping just clothes. Think its called bigwardrobe.co.uk (or.com)

    If you specialise in clothes I would hire out a church hall and have a nearly new sale. Have a couple of changing areas set up, put on some chairs and refreshments.

    For stock you can always buy wholesale from Grattan, I know they do bulk deals on left over stock.

    i wouldnt bother with big wardrobe - its a good idea but isnt regulated at all, ive had so many people make an offer then just not pay. one woman wanted 20 of my items - i was suspicious so emailed her to check she definately wanted them all, she seemed genuine and replied to all emails then just never paid so i have all the hassle of relisting 20 items.

    Have decided to give everything to my local British Heart Foundation shop - it is just not worth the hassle with ebay any more.

    Certainly come May when the buyers can give negs out whenever they feel like it

    completely agree - if they have another cheap listing day before may i will have one last go and list everything i can find, but after that everything will go to the charity shop.

    Is it not worth giving ebid a go?

    If all the disillusioned ebayers switch to ebid the site has a real chance of becoming a true competitor to ebay....

    In the women's clothing nothing has any bids on it!
