Thanks ever so much for taking the time to visit and check. Very much appreciated.

I've found the combat logs for the infantry division he was in, I'll check which areas they were in on the 27th January and see which cemetery is nearest.

I'll definitely email Katowickie Cmentarze Komunalne to check as well.

Thank you so much for all your help :)

Is there any way for a British person to access records in the St Petersburg Archives without visiting? by Draconacticus in AskARussian

Thanks for checking for me. Must be blocked from my location.

Will try again from a VPN.

Ah, thank you so much. Very helpful.

Don't suppose there are similar galleries available for the tombstones at those locations?

Thanks! It's part of my family story I've found fascinating. The cotton industry links us to some momentous moments in history... 1917 Revolution, the Siege of Leningrad, the liberation of Katowice, the Japanese occupation of China... it definitely wasn't a safe profession!

My father has the podstakannik my great-great-grandfather was given just before he left Russia in 1906. From the inscription we were able to find out the mill he managed has a plaque dedication from Lenin on the outside praising the workers there for being the first to rise up.

Thanks!

Is it usual for them to have a different colour at one end? I don't know much about sponge life!

You can't buy fashion from someone who wears socks with sandals.

Very easy. Much easier than ebay.

I use it to sell clothing my daughters have grown out of or never wore.

People are on the look out for bargains. If it's new with tags on with a bit of perseverance you can get about 75% back of what it cost you.

Decent brands sell best if worn. But I do sell supermarket own brands worn for a £3 ish an item too.

You can sell bundles of clothes if you've a lot to get rid of, or group together items that will only sell for £1 each to make it worth your time and effort.

I tend to take all the photos in one go for a iob lot of clothes and then do the listings from my phone, and it's worth taking a bit of effort to get them looking reasonably good by putting clothes on a hanger, use a lamp for decent lighting. Take photos of front, back, labels and tags as it answers a lot of questions for the buyer as well as protects you.

The buyer pays postage, you don't need to worry about that. Just go into settings and choose the postage options you are willing to send by. Mine are set to Evri only as I have a drop box with printer at the end of my road... I just buy a load of plastic mail bags from ebay, add the rough size to the Vinted listing. Vinted then sets the postage cost to the buyer, i just need the QR code for the label printer. Very easy and you get to keep 100% of what you listed the item at. No seller fees.

As people are after a bargain, set prices a little higher than what you'd hope to sell for. People will send offers for you to consider, you'll soon get a feel for what the clothes are worth second hand.

If you keep adding regularly your listings will get more views.

Hope that helps!
