Selling things you no longer need
Our cupboards are full of unused things that could serve someone else. By selling them on, you earn money and the items get a second life instead of new ones being made. This guide covers where to sell, how to write a listing and how to trade safely.
You will need
- A phone for taking photos
- An account on Tori.fi or another selling service, for example
- A list of items to sell
- Packaging material for posting
