Listing clothing on e-bay can be a challenge especially if you are new to selling clothing.I sold clothing in a store and that worked out good for me.Customers would try it on and if it fit they would buy it.But listing online is a whole other ball game.I learned the hard way by making mistakes and just did not realize all the things that should go to listing clothing.I have created this hopefully to help other newbies so you want have to find out the hard way.
I have found that most wholesale buying online is Juniors.Women's and Plus sizes are out there.butthey just don't offer alot of variety for them.I have been seeing alot of fashion clothing that is so freaking expensiveI wonder who buy this stuff.Surely not people selling online.Maybe I am old school but clothing online is very high to me.After a while of buying online everything starts to look the same.I am funny about what I don't buy online due to the world selling it.If you are lucky and can find a wholesale store in your area that is the place to check out.
Here is a check list to help ensure listing clothing:
Know what you have-women's-plus,juniors,petites etc
Buy good quality measuring tape-Always measure laying the item flat on table then measure straight across the garment.Then remember this: If underarm to underarm is 12 inches across.Then it is really 24 inches for the Bust and same goes for waist.
create a spreadsheet with these below:
Shoulder to shoulder(bust)
underarm to underarm
waist
length
Hi low Skirts-Need front length of lining and skirt and a back length. I have found all hi low skirts are not the same.Be sure to add that some like hi low skirts or dresses short and others don't.Tell them to be sure to read lining measurements to be sure it will work for them.Learned this the hard way.
Does it stretch-about how much could it stretch if someone wanted it but it is not their size
Is it fitted-loose etc
Learn the types of Dresses,Skirts etc.blouson- shift etc.
You can create a color chart or tell people about what color you think it comes close to
Remember if ever buy one size clothing.One size is not one size.Just about all of the one sizes needs to specified that they are a Junior's One size Small/Medium and also add measurements.
Another thing I found out that when selling lace bandeau,specify if they are sheer and see thru.Customers see them laying flat and think they are not see thru.Here comes bad feedback.
Create Title with everything you know about the item.So at first glance the customer can see everything they are looking for.Brand-Color-Size-New or Used-New with tags etc-(New Black Spense 100% Silk Maxi Dress Size 10 )
Always add measurements to listings.I purchased some junior's dress that were sized wrong and here we do again.Learned this the hard way.
Add pattern types-solid-plaid etc
Include all the information about shipping-returns etc in a spreadsheet then copy and paste to each listing.
Hopefully I have included everything that I learned the hard way.If I have missed something,please let me know.
I am still learning everyday.
Thanks for viewing and let me know what you think?
