Cash for Clothes

Hi everyone - I just wanted to post this as a mini rant - I was having a clear out of clothes last night and thought I'd have a look to see if there was anywhere local to sell them by weight as they're all in good condition.... I find 'Return to Earn' - all looks good so far - my 10kg bag as a starter will get me £6.00 - not bad for doing nothing really and they come and collect it.

BUT - upon checking what they don't take - the usual damaged, dirty, bobbled items - fair enough - and then the doosie.... nothing 'XXXL/ 18+'... NO plus size thank you very much - now like 47% of the female population I am over a size 14.... I swing between 18 and 20 most of the time and I have nice things - but they don't want fat clothes.

They're flogging them on in eastern european countries who want western clothes but are more likely to be smaller sizes.

you might be better off selling on ebay if you can be bothered

Cash for Clothes pay 50p per kilo and take shoes, bags ,any clothes and they don't check them all. They just split the bag to make sure you haven't filled it up with rubble etc.

thanks - ebay drives me barmy these days. I'll try cash for clothes at 50p a kilo if we've got one here

can't really sneeze at it as ebay is so much faff

Yep, that's the reason.

take a few photos & put them on gumtree as a job lot or local facebook selling page, you'll get a lot more than that for them.
