Phone camera. Easiest way to take pictures for Ebay. Printer/Printer Paper. Printing postal labels through Ebay is cheaper than buying through USPS, so it’s best to print at home.

I can list everything on Ebay, sell it, pack it, and schedule a USPS pick up!. To me, Ebay is still a bit easier and items can be listed any time of the day AND can be scheduled to post at future times. There are a lot of rules and it’s a lot of work.

There are a lot of options to selling kids clothes. The most problematic closet was my youngest daughter’s closet, which housed 6 bins of outgrown kids clothes (4 girls bins and 2 boys bins)! I’m not sure why I held on to so many old clothes, but I made it a goal to get rid of all of it this year. It’s because I’ve been decluttering and reorganizing all of our overstuffed closets.
You’ll notice that I’ve been MIA on the blog lately.
