Any advice would be greatly appreciated on this I am trying to sell my sons 0 - 3 months baby clothing on ebay at the moment or trying to alot of his stuff is from next and some of it still brand new with the tags on (you know how quick they grow out of it) I started listing it last night and managed to do probably a third but now I am left wondering have I done it right I have listed them seperately but I am thinking should I have listed them as a full lot or am I right to do it seperate because I would guess that most of the next stuff will sell great but what about ladybird mothercare m&s and george are they gonna be left behind or sell for pennies now wondering what to do and what other peoples experiences of it are there is also the fact that if I sell as a lot is it worth selling it featured at a cost of £9.95 because with all the stuff on there it all gets lost really easy.

Baby bundles can work for/against.
In my experience, I have found that Next stuff is not good enough for Ebayers... Noooo .. they want Moschino/Prada.... and every other brand name childrens wear you can think of (Just Next for me I'm afraid
).
I would have listed seperately myself to be honest, however, I have loads of baby girl stuff still brand new with tags and nobody on Ebay wanted it!
Would rather take it to a charity shop now, where people will buy it because they really want it and need it.
I give up on Ebay with clothes, only thing I have sold well on there has been Karen Millen. Which no way on this earth can I afford now!0 -
As a buyer: I tend to buy small bundles - not the huge 50+ items ones that you'll never use - and I only buy if I like 90% of the bundle. Personally I wouldn't buy individual children's items for that age group unless the postage is very low and the item is a real bargain. I'm not going to get much wear out of it so I don't want to spend much on it, hence going to ebay not Next in the first place... Although I'm more likely to buy items that are from Next, Adams and M&S than George, Tesco etc but I wouldn't rule out mixed bundles.
If the ones you've listed don't sell then you can re list for free I think (???)0 -

To the best of my knowledge: you get a free listing credit. If the item sells the second time you don't have to pay for the second lot of listing fees (Like for like, for example if you add gallery or a subtitle to the second one you don't get that for free).
As I say that's to the best of my knowledge so check the help files (or if you're finding them hard to navigate give me a shout and I'll wade through for you!).
As for the baby clothes, sorry, not a clue, I've not bought any off there! (Well only a bridesmaid dress but I don't think that counts!)Comping, freebieing and trying to pay the mortgage off early!0
