Back to School on Ebay!

Hi, sorry it's been a while since I made a post. I guess you could say that my Ebay business is back in the swing again. I have basically been "off" since school got out in May...but I've been itching to get back in again...and now is the time!

Back-to-School (BTS) sales are in full force right now! If you're looking at selling on Ebay, clean out the closets and look for last fall's clothes that your kiddos have outgrown. Both of our kids hit a growth spurt this past spring and now all their clothes (especially jeans & long pants) are about 2" too short. Being tall myself, I just can't stand to see them in "high waters" (he he), so I'm listing everything I can find in order to buy them new school clothes now.

I would start selling the transitional clothes (jeans with short sleeve or light weight shirts), capris, fall shoes, etc. I'm not seeing my big heavy clothes getting much interest yet, but that will come (probably next month).

Believe it or not, I'm also just about to start getting out my Halloween stuff and preparing those items for auction. I have a few pair of costume toddler girl shoes that I'm about to list in my store, and then will most likely send them to auction next month. I heard from one of our local children's resale stores that their Halloween costumes will be out September 12th. When it's 100+ outside I'm finding it hard to think about fall, but it will be here before I know it.

Just to recap, search your home for: lightweight fall clothes, fall shoes, jeans, and get the heavier sweaters/jackets, wool clothes ready for next month....in addition to those fun costumes!

I'll be back in the next day or so with my findings at an area consignment sale! It was a fun outing...with some great finds!

Until then, happy shopping!
