What criteria do you use in listing here vs. ebay?

I have a lot of the girls' clothing to sort through and get listed, but not sure if it is right for this board or not ~ I usually do ebay, but some of this stuff is not right for ebay either ~ I am leaning more toward taking things to a local consignment shop, but thought I would ask anyway! Those of you who *do* ebay, what kind of things would you list here that you may not on ebay, or vice versa?

I have a lot of spring/summer girl stuff, cute and clean, but most of it isn't name-brand type stuff. I haven't been able to sell that type of clothing on ebay lately unless it is namebrand, and wondering if it would also not sell here.

Thanks in advance.

I have been offering things here first, and then whatever isn't claimed goes to ebay.

Sometimes my prices here might seem high, but if I KNOW I can get substantially more on ebay, I still offer it here, but at a higher then usual (for this board) price.

I figure if it is worth it to someone here, they will claim it, and if not, no loss to me

Hey there old buddy !!!

I'd give it a shot here first before taking it to the consignment store (what is that anyway ??? ) !!! Of course, you may have to throw in some pictures of your beautiful girls modelling the clothes for us !

Lots of the ladies here are bringing in some big bucks lately, there is plenty of willingness to hand that money out (NOT me though of course LOL) !!

Thanks everyone for the super-speedy replies! Yes I definitely want to come and play! Thanks for the encouragement, Mish!!

Thanks Joanna ~ sounds like what I will probably do, as well, since I do still enjoy my ebaying!

Oh Cindy, I'm suuuuure you haven't been spending anything!!!

Hey deb! I like it!

Mom2jordan ~ I've got all sizes from newborn to a little bit of 2T but mostly stopping at the 18-24 mo mark, since my girls are 2 1/2 and still fit into some of their 2T stuff.

Thanks again ~ I've got to go through it all so it won't be anytime in the immediate future ~ hopefully this week though. I see that you guys usually post a pre-auction notice, so I will do that for sure when I am all set. Thanks again!

I usually try here to get rid of it fast and at a cheaper rate but some things no one wants and in which I will go and sell on Ebay, sometimes. I had some patent leather LN shoes here and no one wated them for lik $3.50 and $4.50 and sold each pair on Ebay for around $12.99 each. I listed some little tommy bathing suits that I had listed here for $2.50 each and no one wanted them and sold them together on Ebay for $16.00!! I really try to let someone have it here for cheaper cause I love to see our very one in Kaitlin's things!

I think I "know" you too . Good to see you around here.

Usually, I will offer things here first. I will look up what similar things have sold for on eBay and price accordingly. I usually take into account that here I am not paying as many fees, just paypal. There are a few things that I am saving for eBay during the right season, because I know they will do awesome.

I'd love to see what you have, although I think my Emma is too close to the same size as your girls.

Take care,
