Do you have baby, kids or maternity items your kids or you are no longer using? Are you itching to declutter the house?
Then this plan is for you!
For 3 months, you can upload as many items as you'd like (remember to bring the items to the warehouse) and we will handle all sales and deliveries. At the end of the period, you can choose to extend for another 3 months, or pick up the unsold items. During the period we will advice you on price adjustments and discounts for items that are not getting interest or not moving.
You can extend once, making your total period 6 months. After which, it is required that you pick up unsold items. You extend by sending us a written confirmation by email, text or WhatsApp.
Have a business, are you looking at starting one or do you have a side hustle to fetch some extra income?
Then this plan is for you!
You can upload as many items as you'd like (remember to bring the items to the warehouse) and we will handle all sales and deliveries.
After two months we will do evaluation of your sales and, in collaboration with you, determine if we should adjust the prices or run special discounts. After 6 months we will reevaluate again and determine the way forward. If there is no traction on your items and no willingness to make adjustments, we reserve the right to discontinue our collaboration.

A good photo sells!
When it comes to selling stuff online, a strong lead photo is important!
Ready your items
- Make sure they are cleaned and ironed, and look as good as possible.
Set up your “studio”
-Use as much light as possible, preferably natural light. Choose a light coloured background such as a white sheet. Avoid prints or dark colours. Make sure your background is clean and decluttered.
Use the best camera you have
- You should use the camera that will give you the best results.
Don’t get too artsy
- No need for effects or crazy angles. Instead, let the item fill up the frame, take lots of photos, only take photos during the day and choose a neutral background.
Do some slight editing
- Once you've chosen the photo you want to use adjust the colour balance, brightness and contrast to make the photo pop.
If you are selling reused items, see if you can find a stock photo online, but always remember to include an actual photo of the real item as well.
The right price is key!
Here are some things to keep in mind:
Competitive pricing
- Do your research. Price your items based on market demands and not personal evaluation of the item's worth
Consider your costs
- Make sure that you’re covering your costs (materials, shipping, labor, time, etc.)
Think about value
- If your product is high quality or unique, you can charge a higher price. But if it’s a more common item, you may need to compete on price.
Consider your audience
- Take into consideration your target audience and their purchasing power.
Setting the right price
