Marketplace, which is quick and
easy to use, hence it’s sudden
increase in popularity.
Product specific sites - One
strategy to earn more cash for
your items is to use sites that
specialize in the items you are
hoping to sell. If you are selling
electronics, you may choose to
use sites like Gazelle.com,
gizmogul.com, or
buybackworld.com, which
specialize in buying back new
and used electronics. Similarly,
if you are selling clothing you
may choose to use sites like
Thredup, Tradesy, or the Real
Real to cater to customers who
wish to buy clothes.
Using product specifics sites
may be a useful strategy when
you are selling high end or
brand new items. For generic
brand items or well-used items,
you are probably better served
selling them through one of the
do-it-yourself platforms.
Please note, any websites and
online marketplaces mentioned
