Selling second hand XXL clothing

Options
I am a first time forum poster, so i hope i'm doing it right!  My husband has passed away and I am in dire need of money.  I have a lot of really good quality XXL and XX tall clothing which I need to sell. My question is: does anyone know of a dedicated site for this or should i just go the ebay route.  Any advice or expertise would be much appreciated.

    If there is a "nextdoor" (Google it) in your area, join it. They have a For Sale function which is free unlike eBay. But you will have to price competitively. There may be someone in your area who buys secondhand gents' clothing, but they won't be paying much.

  • Very sorry about your husband. Friends who sell second hand goods have had luck on Facebook marketplace, so that might be another option.

    Sorry to hear about your husband. I would suggest facebook market place too plus local buying and selling groups on facebook.
    There is always a market for sizes not easily found on the high street. Good luck.
  • Try specialist sites? Depop is alwasy really easy for making some cash quickly and Etsy to. If to have a wedding dress to sell try sites like bride2bride
