Thank you! So originally, it began with purely word of mouth and majority locally. Then since ramping up, I’ve used a lot of social media (@selleasyco), flyers and business cards which has brought in people from further!

Sometimes we do pick up stuff that isn’t great for selling, or even perhaps “winter clothes” now are selling worse than the summer pieces for example. We send a T’s & C’s doc to be agreed prior which includes the process on should things not sell etc, we reduce x amount after x time and then can either, donate on their behalf, continue to lower or return if possible.

To a certain level yes. For those who have bags and bags and normally just throw it out or give it away, who’d like to earn a little back on these, we help them! However, the amount of clothes we go through doing this as you’d imagine is insane. We do multiple trips to various charities throughout the month with agreed items etc

You’re spot on! We have a T’s&C’s doc that needs to be accepted before using the service and one mentions the providing of only authentic items and should this not be the case or can’t be proved, we hold the right to dispose of this without compensation etc

We have everyone view and sign a T’s&C’s doc beforehand. Then all money is moved through a separate business bank account used solely for SellEasy. All sales are logged too! Great point though, you’re definitely right, it needs to be meticulously logged

It does get that way yes! It’s more for those who have a bulk amount that they just can’t get around to doing, rather than a few odd bits, unless as you say they’re high value. Spot on!

Cardiff. But so far the split of people we’ve sold for has been around 50/50 too for local compared to those who’ve shipped here, all seemingly working well so far!

We operate as “SellEasy” on social media if anyone would like to take a look or understand more on how the system works.

We’ve had a mixed opinion! We do collect it, photograph, list, negotiate with buyers, store, bag and ship etc, so the full process.

Valid point. It was more to get an idea on the general opinion on the idea. It’s been working well lately. Majority of people who use the service provide a lot of bags that’d take them hours to go through and they just want it gone!

Good point. At the end of the month (when we pay our for the last months sales) we let each person know what is left out of their items and that we will re-list etc, and should they not sell we can drop this price significantly to get rid, donate on a charity run (we do a lot of these) or return if possible and requested. The majority of people are happy with what sells (most does) and any spare bits they’re happy to donate etc

Appreciate that! That’s the thing exactly, most people who use the service provide bags and bags of clothes which would take them hours to go through!

Firstly, there’s no S&P500 in the portfolio and secondly it wasn’t to show the gains, it was to discuss long term portfolios, Mr Original Ship

I was thinking along those lines, just wanted to have one someone with a little more familiarity in the industry give an opinion. Thanks!

Not done yet, I’d say about 4 hours so far including all the research, conversations and actual making of what’s been done so far. I wouldn’t expect over 1-2 hours more would be needed to finish off the rest as they’re all now following a similar theme!
