Savvy Sellers: Start selling your pre-loved items, De clutter for the summer.
Buying and selling pre loved clothes has never been more popular and a great way of being more sustainable. Let us introduce you to the different selling sites which are available for you to sign up to, how to sign up, and help you decide which site is the right one for you. We aim to give you as much information as possible, so that you can make an informed choice. Your tutor will go through the different things you need to consider when selling your pre-loved clothes/shoes/accessories and how to display them correctly, before discussing photo techniques. You will also compare prices with different selling sites and charity shops, against buying items brand new from the high street shops, so you can see the savings you will make.
