Hello!
Hello there, my name's Matt and I'm another wannabe seller in a bid to make some money for uni next year.
I'm into my fashion and enjoy designer clothing far too much, with my favourites being: All Saints, Lyle & Scott, Penguin and Fred Perry, all of these I would be looking to sell too.
I'm basically looking for some advice on how I should go about this really eg:
Where I should get my stock from?
Where should I sell it?
Is it worth getting a website together?
I've been using eBay for the past 2 Months buying/selling from there and managing to make about £300 profit in that time, sadly this is immensely time consuming and a lot of hassle.
Also when looking on eBay it seems the market for designer Polo's is saturated, especially L&S which is full of fakes too...
So if anyone has any ideas about how I can go about this then that would be greatly appreciated, thanks very much, all comments welcome!

Re: Hello!
Thanks everyone, it doesn't look like there is much to be made selling genuine designer clothes on eBay these days, would anyone agree with this?

Re: Hello!
All depends on what your cost is! The market on Ebay is flooded with fakes at the moment and i guess will always be. Its all about how to convince the buyer you are selling genuine goods, and hence charge the correct price!

Re: Hello!
Hmm, I've been comparing up prices with what people are offering here and selling prices on eBay and I don't think it looks too great.
I don't know why but I'm wary about buying products I know nothing about, even though I can see the profits in them are much better.
