Ebay selling advice

I've been offered the chance to buy a couple of pairs of earrings and some Lingere really rather cheap and was just wondering if either of these items is a good seller on Ebay as never tried to sell anyting of that type before?

Any advice is much appreciated

    It depends on what they are, how much they are, what quality they are, etc, etc.

    Everything sells, whether you can earn money on it is a whole different matter.

    Check completed listings for similar items that have sold recently.

    As far as I can see its all genuine stuff, the Lingere is old Ann Summers stock, all still with tags attached and the earrings are Virgin Vie.

    I'll have a look around tonight and see if there has been anything similar sold

    I'm not sure how much stuff you're thinking of buying but I am assuming (perhaps wrongly, so feel free to either correct or ignore me) that there must be more than the odd item or three. Please remember that if you are buying to sell you are technically a business and as such you need to take on the responsibility of all that goes with it.
    With regards to lingerie beware what sizes you're buying - it may be left over stock for a reason - perhaps it's not an easy size to sell
