Anywhere to sell Joblots?

Kayalana99

I've tried Gumtree and they basicly removed the post for some reason.

Could try ebay but as I can't deliver them and personally don't think it would get me anywhere ... but I would be willing to try if people think its worth it? (80 pairs of shoes + )

I need them out the way so we can start decorating our bedroom for baby number 2 :-)

Anyone got any other sites etc?

Other then taking them down the tip...which I really don't want to do Im running out of ideas.

Oh and I tried facebook groups...got knowwhere + got banned from a couple groups. Don't see what the big deal is personally!

how about doing a car boot?

[Text removed by MSE Forum Team] - my boyfriend thinks I have too many shoes but I disagree....!!!!

Haha I could try a car boot I guess... I have only done one before (actally I took my friend to sell her stuff lol) and they were all oldish people looking for bargains...unf most my stock is heels and I don't see it being a hit...

Does anyone else think this is worth trying? I might just be being abit navie.

Serouisly considering the tip today -.-

Freecycle groups are pretty good

You could try ebay cash on collection.

Could you get someone else to post them if you can't?

As suggested, might be worth doing a carboot. Maybe go to a different one if there's not the target market at the last one you went to.

There are a few forums where you can sell stuff as well, although I'm guessing most would expect you to post the items.

Otherwise, I'd suggest freecycle or charity shops/bags. Seems a shame to just bin them.

Cash4clothes kind of schemes....some of them accept shoes too and will collect.

Do you have a market in your area? Or a vintage shop? I would take them the whole lot, and get them to offer on the whole lot sold on the spot as seen etc. Gets them away and gets you some quids in cash there and then. Otherwise call your favoured charity and ask if they can collect a bunch of 80 pairs of womens shoes - they will have someone from one of the shops with a car most likely so can collect for a good load.

How about putting them on ebay as a big lot and using DHL or MyHermes to send them via Courier? You can drop them into a Staples store, and the cost of the packaging is in with the cost of the delivery to the customer. These days, it seems more economical than RM, and you get a tracking number.

Hi Everyone,

We've re-opened this thread. By all means do continue to offer your opinions but we would not suggest or advocate the exchange of personal details via the forum. We would be unable to help should something go wrong.

Thanks

Thanks everyone, although it would be possible to courier them its more about packaging ...plus delivery expence would probally make it not worth it.

I will get round to trying Ebay collection it only cost me a £1 or so to try I guess.. and if not I suppse I shall do a charity rather then the tip as others have said.
