Trying to make a few extra bucks? Sell your old items online: 9 ways to guarantee you’ll profit, and quickly
For anyone looking to make some extra money or replenish that pocketbook, have you considered selling your old items online? Even if they’re in used condition and you’re selling them as such, you’ll still want to make them look attractive to potential buyers. If you’re selling clothes, include a shot of what the item looks like on. And if you’re selling kids stuff, upload a photo of your kids actually in the clothes (again, blur faces if you’re worried about privacy!) If you’re selling a dresser, for example, be prepared to provide all dimensions, weight, info about moving it, etc.
Virus precautions by Facebook Marketplace in the UK are falling short of its rivals
Facebook Marketplace is one of the biggest second-hand buying and selling platforms in the world. However, a host of Facebook Marketplace users in the U.K. told CNBC that they were still completing face-to-face transactions over the platform. Some of them said they're taking their own precautions by wearing masks and gloves, but not all. "I recently moved house so have extra plants and gardening tools to sell," one Facebook Marketplace seller said. Gumtree has launched a similar contactless delivery service called Gumtree Door to Door and it's promoting it heavily both on the website and via emails.
