What is the easiest, hassle free way of selling baby clothes? Which are the NCT branches where you can drop stuff off and leave it to someone else to do the selling? Is there anywhere else similar? The thought of photographing around 200 items of clothes and posting them out too much. Does anyone here enjoy this kind of thing and would add my stuff to theirs and take a cut?

Why not have a table at a sale I'm organising for Sat. 5th April at St Barnabas Hall, 23 Dulwich Village.


Charge for a table is ?10 but I could sell your stuff for you on my tables and take a cut for the Alzheimers Society, the charity I'm organising the sale for?


Might not sell a lot but you never know.

When we lived near St Albans there was a wonderful shop called "Outgrown" that sold baby/child stuff.

I equipped both my children with everything (clothing, pram, pushchair, toys ....), and sometimes I'd even sell things back to them.

I know that rents round here are extortionate, but I'm sure that people would beat a path to the door if someone opened a similar shop round here, even if it had to be in an out-of-the-way (and cheaper) position.

Up in Pimlico there is a shop which might give you a price for a whole bundle.

They will want things which are in good repair, it's worth your while ironing and mending them first.

On recommendation from a friend, I used these ladies to sell mine. They are based in Bexley and you need to take the clothes to them. They offer you an upfront price for your clothes but thereafter take responsibility for selling them, either through their FB page or at various sales they hold. From memory, they take a reasonable percentage but as I didn't have the time to sell mine (or the inclination to do all the labelling etc!), I was more than happy for them to sell them on my behalf.

    • But I don't think that was what you meant, was it? But he can hardly be held responsible for what somebody else did! Just discovered I forgot to post the above  last night, and now it's overtaken by long posts.  I don't have sufficient knowledge  to counter some of what has been said above, some of which appears to be opinion rather than facts, so it would be pointless for me to say anything else.
    • I am sure our lovely Evri delivery team, who do a firkin hard job, take the time between drops to read the East Dulwich Forum 🤫
    • For every person like OP that moans their doorbell was rung and there was a knock on the door, there's someone else moaning that they didn't hear the delivery drivers. If you've ever done delivery work you'll know that loads of people's bells don't work. The delivery drivers probably goes to a hundred doors a day: press bell, knock door, drop package, move on. If you don't like delivery drivers, insist on delivery by Royal Mail where the workers have wages and a union - or just stop ordering shit online that's artificially cheap. But most of us (me included) don't want that
    • If someone comes to my house and bangs my door and slams my gate, I'd speak to them about it nicely and ask if they would please not do that. And then subsequently less nicely if they keep doing it, ending in reporting them.  We don't slam doors at home and I don't put up with that either. I can see us moving to a culture where we bribe drivers to be nice by tipping them, but we shouldn't have to. It's not necessary - does not matter if they are on minimum wage or not, or if society means that delivery services are outsourced or whatever reason anyone would like to concoct.
