How to Make Money Selling Used Clothes on Ebay

FIND AN AUCTION SITE. Ebay is by far the most popular site and I have been a seller for almost 10 years. iOffer is also another site that you can use for selling.

STICK TO NAME BRANDS. When selling clothes online, most people are more inclined to look for name brands because of familiarity. It could be anything from Old Navy to Armani. Just make sure the item you are selling is a recognizable brand.
BE HONEST ABOUT THE CONDITION. This is very important to establish trust and establish a reputation. Seek out pieces are in excellent condition. Although you can still sell items with a little wear, it's sometimes more difficult.
TAKE GOOD PICTURES. Take very clear pictures and list more than one picture.
MEASUREMENTS. List all measurements because you will be asked about them later on. Be very exact to ensure that your customers are well informed prior to purchasing.
SETTING PRICES. Aim for at least 25% profits when setting your prices. Keep in mind what you paid for the item more than what the item is worth. This will prevent you from overpricing and keep your profits where they should be. Don't set the price too low also. You want to at least get most of what you originally paid for the item back so it will be like you returned it to the store!
SET THE RIGHT TIME FRAME. Use a ten day listing and begin on Thursday to have two weekends in your time frame. More people shop on the weekends.
WRITE GOOD COPY. Motivate the buyer to buy. If the item is no longer available in stores, write that in the copy. If it was a high retail price also note that. Sell just like the big corporations by advertising and making the item appealing to buyers.
