When is the best time to sell summer clothes on ebay?

Hi

I know that ebay is very seasonal. but the shops have summer clothes in now so is it seasonal - in line with the shops, or am I best to wait til summer is actually here (if we ever get a summer)

Thanks

    I'd say now when people are thinking about the summer and holidays would be the best time and before the shops get all the summer stock in

    Thanks for the replies.

    I plan to list a few things everyday (starting tomorrow). Hope my stuff does well too.:D

    I've listed a few things, but only children stuff going at the moment. I don't think shoes/sandals will go for a few weeks yet, but with spring around the corner it will soon start.

    I guess that for anyone going on holiday somewhere hot at this time of year, then the shops don't have this kind of thing in yet. However I list any summer clothes around May as the weather is getting (hopefully!) better.

    You may hit lucky selling now....but i think it is too soon.....judging on the past 2 years we seem to get a hot spot around the end of april and everyone is in Primark buying t-shirts....I would hold on a bit.
    Never put off until tomorrow what you can avoid doing altogether.:D

    You can sell summer clothes and sandals at any time. I sold loads last November to someone going on a cruise and fortunately for me and her we were the same size. :D
