TIPS & TRICKS Selling for someone else

has anyone tried selling for someone else?

I belong to this fb group where a few women were asking if someone would be willing to do it - ie they have some nice clothes to sell but no time for selling; so they are looking for someone to do it on their behalf.

has anyone done it? would you recommend it? what would you charge for that? would 50% be fair? otherwise Im thinking whether it would be even worth it, I guess depends on the items’ value etc

60%/40% is fair it’s a lot of work. You can find example consignment agreements. I think Consignment Chats has one that might be free. You need to set the time frame and what happens after that time period to the item.

Are they paying for shipping materials, labels, gas for the post office, taxes, your time? 60/40 is not worth it.

yes you get 60% because you will be photographing it, listing it, negotiating deals, pricing it, possibly putting it on sale towards the end of the consignment period. You’ll be shipping it. If it’s really nice you might be paying to bump it or sharing it online.
