Cool really like the idea of garage sales but the idea is not that common in Southeast Asia, at least not in my country. Since people might be skeptically with the legitimacy of the goods and they can't actually get a refund if they encounter an issue with the product. So, in my country, there are apps where users can take photos of items that are pre-owned and resell it on the platform for other people to purchase if they like it. The process is really simple and in this way, both owners and sellers are connected digitally as they are able to chat with each other. The goods can be delivered via meeting up in person or mailing to the buyer. Really simple and cool. The app is called Carousell. :) (not a promotion lol)

Garage selling is good. For those whose garments are not anymore needed, why not have a garage sale? This way, you can help others who like to buy cheaper items. Of course, what you will display is all second-hand, therefore give a lesser price for every item you want to sell. But you must know first the tips on how to get your garage ready. There are tips to follow so that your plan will succeed.

These are the tips you have to follow before setting your plan, first, clean out your closet. Next, start sorting, after sorting, the next move is to get used to the idea. After doing the numbers 1-3, set a date. After setting the date, stock up on supplies. Do not forget to name your price. Organize the garage which one are baby clothes, adult clothes,

You can also sell your garage shoes, coats, jewelry, books, toys, home decor, and furniture. You have to make your prices visible, bundle the items, never hike up your prices, and expect to haggle. After everything is set and you are ready, think or prepare how to broadcast your garage sale. You may channel it to media sites like Facebook, many are busy reading Facebook business ads, so try it. So, if you want to do a garage sale, follow the tips. What can you say?
The last time we moved it was to downsize, so a Garage Sale was a high priority for us. I had a lot of tools (which seemed to be a hot item) and we made over $3,000 in one weekend. The biggest surprise I had was from a tool chest full of Craftsman tools I had owned for many years and a many came in that bought almost all of them for collector items and paid me more than I even dreamed of asking. It's a lot of work, but if you have merchandise that is in demand you can end up with a lot more that dreams.

Good luck to you on that particular garage-selling. My nice too was able to raise enough money for her trips from her garage selling. I may have a garage-selling affair next year. I have to sort out first the contents of my dressers and shoe cabinet.

This is for sure good as long as they are large amount of stuff they are not using. It will help them declutter things they don't use and at the same time, it will help them earn extra bucks.

I have many homeowners in my place posting ads about their extra stuff being on sale.

This has been the practice here in our area, I oftentimes see people doing this, but I can't tell whether it is good or not for them. But for me, everything that is no longer use, I throw them or donate them.

We had a Garage Sale when I sold our house a few years ago and in one weekend made over $3,000 from downsizing. I sold a lot of tools for part of it.
