Not sure, but there is a section on the eBay site to find a Trading Assistant (someone who sells items for other people and takes commission), which is the same sort of thing."Well, it's election year, Bill, we'd rather people didn't exercise common sense..." - Jed Bartlet, The West Wing, season 4

I'm in Manchester and they tend to open and close quite quickly. Given the nature of them if you can't find them readily online then I would doubt how good they can be.mumofmenaces wrote: »does anybody know if there are any drop ebay drop of shops in manchester? i have lots of stuf to sell but dont have time to package them and send of
A few years ago I had a look at this and to make it anywhere near a profitable business the seller would end up with less than half the sale price. So I'd think of other options first, or find a young(ish) family member who wants to earn some pocket money..0 -
They tend to vanish quickly and sometimes with your goods.
To really work it would need to be on a decent scale where they could cut costs for shipping and processing.
1 shop where they only get the same discount as other business sellers will struggle to sell 2nd hand goods.
Unless your items are high value they maybe worth less than their expenses to sell it.
And getting a steady stream of higher value items maybe not viable.Censorship Reigns Supreme in Troll City...0
