We think de-cluttering is one of the best practices for letting go of the old and making room for the new. Our clients purge for many reasons. Sometimes it is downsizing, moving across the state, or making room for a new addition to the family. No matter the reason for purging, you are going to end up with a pile of stuff that you don't need anymore. Some things can be donated but you might want to sell some things as well.

 

For the most part, selling your items online is a time consuming effort regardless of the outlet you use to sell. If you choose to sell items online, consider that you have to take good pictures, research pricing, list your items, keep in touch with potential buyers and, in most cases, ship the items. Here are some helpful time saving apps for selling items online.

 

 ebay

It's no wonder this one makes the top of the list. ebay is the pioneer of selling online and still remains a front runner. You can sell almost anything on this online marketplace. Because of its reputation for online shopping, ebay is highly trusted by many buyers and sellers. The app for this marketplace is actually quicker for listing than the website. If you do not wish to put too much effort into selling you can also use the ebay valet service. With this service you just ship the items and ebay sellers will list and sell it for you for a higher percentage of commission.

 

 

 

 Poshmark

For selling clothing and accessories, especially designer labels, Poshmark is one of the best options. You can find a large network of buyers and sellers on Poshmark that are willing to negotiate the price, making this app very seller friendly. Posting and listing is also easy on this app. Just snap a few good pictures and upload them with descriptions on to the site. Poshmark  will also help you with shipping by sending you ready to ship boxes and hosting virtual parties to sell items. The service is a little pricey since they take about 20% of your sale for commission.
