Did you know that you can find around 21 pre-loved items in your home that you can sell online?


Highlights
  • Make sure that you take good photos of the items that you post online and be quick to reply to inquiries
  • There is a market for pre-loved clothing, accessories, and unused gifts
  • Selling your pre-loved items saves them from the landfill. As they say "someone's 'trash' is someone else's treasure"
Research has revealed that every household can earn up to $5,300 from selling pre-loved items.

 

"It's best to follow that one-in-one-out policy. Every time you purchase a new item, make sure you sell or give away another item," shares Eleni Gavalas, Gumtree spokesperson.
