Have you made money from eBay, Facebook Marketplace, Depop etc recently?
Have you recently sold something (or many things) on eBay, Facebook Marketplace, Vinted, Vestiaire, Depop etc? Let us know what you flogged and how much you made, and you could feature in this week’s Money Tips Email as inspiration for fellow MoneySavers. :-)
We'd love to include some examples for the different platforms. Thank you so much
Just flipped a coffee machine on Facebook Marketplace for £40 (bought it ages ago and barely used it).
I've never sold anything on Vinted, but was lucky to get some good items there.
As for other platforms, I don't have any experience, so unfortunately, I can't help. Though I did hear about some Etsy scam stories floating around recently, so I’ve been a bit wary of trying it myself.
Just sold a load of men's branded clothes on Vinted. Excellent condition tshirts going for a fiver.
Tracksuits listed for £20 but selling for £12 practically new. I don't find Vinted great for getting full price. People really try and get everything cheap.
But that said if your not worried and just want stuff gone it works. I tend to price slightly higher so I get nearer what I'd expect people to offer down to.
