then 58, was offered a job an hour away from her home in Manchester, Iowa, she knew it was time to downsize. Her husband had died, only one of her eight kids lived with her and she didn\u2019t relish the idea of commuting two hours a day. It was time to move. She found a two-bedroom house near her new job and listed her four-bedroom home for sale. Then she began the process of decluttering.<\/p>\n<div class=\"paywall\">\n<p>For the next two months, Potter Kenyon sold her furniture and other items on <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/social-mediaa\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"1\" title=\"Social Media\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Facebook<\/a> Marketplace, held two tag sales, and sold items through consignment shops. By the time she was done, not only did she have significantly fewer items to move to her new home, but she also earned over $2,000.<\/p>\n<p>After this experience Potter Kenyon was inspired to write the book, \u201c<a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/marypotterkenyon.wordpress.com\/marys-books\/\" class=\"icon none\">Called to Be Creative<\/a>,\u201d since\u00a0getting rid of her clutter\u00a0helped her to feel more creative.<\/p>\n<h6><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Pictures_and_descriptions_matter\"><\/span><strong>Pictures and descriptions matter<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h6>\n<p>So how can you earn money and declutter at the same time? Experts share their tips for selling used items on Facebook<br \/>\n        FB,<br \/>\n        <bg-quote field=\"percentchange\" format=\"0,000.00%\" channel=\"\/zigman2\/quotes\/205064656\/composite\" class=\"positive\">+17.59%<\/bg-quote><br \/>\n       Marketplace or Craigslist.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe fun thing about reselling online is that you never know what people will be interested in. I once sold a mop,\u201d says\u00a0Alex Davis, co-creator of the lifestyle blog, \u201cRyan and Alex Duo Life.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The saying goes, \u201cnever judge a book by its cover\u201d but people\u00a0<em>do<\/em>\u00a0judge a book by its cover. The same theory can be <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/download-scripts-themes-apps\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"9\" title=\"Download Scripts &amp; Themes &amp; Apps\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">app<\/a>lied to the picture you use to sell your item \u2014 it\u2019s important to take a good one. If the shot is blurry, has lots of clutter in the background or not taken at a good angle, then people are going to scroll right past it and move on to the next item.<\/p>\n<p>A lot of the selling process relies on trust, so it\u2019s important to be honest in the description about any known defects or issues with the item. This will also save your time and the buyer\u2019s time in relation to a potential sale.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Related<\/strong>: A better way to leave your possessions to your heirs, from an expert on decluttering<\/p>\n<h6><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Price_the_items_properly\"><\/span><strong>Price the items properly<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h6>\n<p>List everything you can such as the brand, year purchased and size or dimensions. You can look up the item on a website such as Amazon<br \/>\n        AMZN,<br \/>\n        <bg-quote field=\"percentchange\" format=\"0,000.00%\" channel=\"\/zigman2\/quotes\/210331248\/composite\" class=\"positive\">+4.65%<\/bg-quote><br \/>\n       or Target<br \/>\n        TGT,<br \/>\n        <bg-quote field=\"percentchange\" format=\"0,000.00%\" channel=\"\/zigman2\/quotes\/207799045\/composite\" class=\"positive\">+2.35%<\/bg-quote><br \/>\n       and use some of the same descriptors they are using. Keywords are important when someone is searching for the item, so use words that will show up in a search.<\/p>\n<div id=\"cx-membership-tile\"><\/div>\n<p>Of course, the price of the item is important, says\u00a0Andrea Woroch, a nationally recognized family finance expert.<\/p>\n<p>So how do you find the right price? You can search the site you are going to sell on and see how similar items are priced. Another good rule of thumb is to price the item for half of what you paid for it when it was new.<\/p>\n<h6><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Be_willing_to_negotiate\"><\/span><strong>Be willing to negotiate<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h6>\n<p>Most people who buy used items are looking for a deal. One way they will feel like they got a deal is if they can pay less than the price that\u2019s listed. With that in mind, you may want to list your price a little bit higher than what you want to actually sell the item for. If you don\u2019t want to negotiate, you can list the item as a firm price.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cExplain in the description if you are firm on price or open to negotiations so you don\u2019t waste your time or your buyer\u2019s time,\u201d says Woroch.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Also see:<\/strong> How to leave your home to a loved one with almost no drama<\/p>\n<h6><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Items_that_sell_well_and_those_that_dont\"><\/span><strong>Items that sell well and those that don\u2019t<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h6>\n<p>Items that sell well can vary by location, but in <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/general\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"3\" title=\"General\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">general<\/a>, smaller furniture in good condition like a bureau or end table sells well. Popular electronics and\u00a0video<a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/game\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"7\" title=\"Game\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">game<\/a>s\u00a0can also sell well, along with home repair tools that everyone needs like a hammer or a wrench.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThings that may be sold out in stores sell well. During the pandemic you couldn\u2019t get your hands on any bikes or camping stuff. That would\u2019ve been a great time to sell those items since everyone was looking to buy and would pay more,\u201d says Woroch.<\/p>\n<p>Clothing can be tough to sell. \u201cSelling clothes often works best in a garage sale. Or, if you want to sell the items online, make it a \u2018grab bag\u2019 where someone can pick up a whole bag of size medium clothes or size 6 shoes. They have to take the whole bag, but get a big discount,\u201d says Davis.<\/p>\n<h6><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Selling_items_safely_and_frustrating_situations\"><\/span><strong>Selling items safely, and frustrating situations<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h6>\n<p>In general, most people that buy used items are honest and just want to buy the item. But there are some people that can cause problems, are dishonest or are criminals.<\/p>\n<p>You can meet the person in a populated place, such as a store parking lot with video cameras, to avoid having strangers come to your home. If you do have a negative experience, report it to the site you sold your item on. And if you experience a criminal interaction, report it to your local police department.<\/p>\n<p>Selling your used items is a great way to earn money and get rid of unwanted items at the same time. But there are frustrations that come along with the process. Sometimes people will not show up for their scheduled time to buy the item. Others will ask lots of questions, request additional pictures, and then not buy the item.<\/p>\n<p>If someone asks you to hold the item, you should only do so if they are willing to pay for the item upfront. One way that they can do this is through PayPal<br \/>\n        PYPL,<br \/>\n        <bg-quote field=\"percentchange\" format=\"0,000.00%\" channel=\"\/zigman2\/quotes\/208054269\/composite\" class=\"positive\">+11.48%<\/bg-quote><br \/>\n       or Venmo. You can also offer this as an option and then leave the item in an agreed-upon place so that you don\u2019t have to be home or interact with the person to make the sale.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIf you can, arrange for contactless pick up of items. If you have a front porch or backyard, use it and ask for the buyers to put the money under the doormat. Over the years, my husband and I have sold hundreds of items this way. It keeps it simple, and we have never had anyone not pay us,\u201d says Davis.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Also on MarketWatch:<\/strong> I no longer drive and want to retire in a highly walkable urban area with many cultural activities \u2014 where should I go?<\/p>\n<h6><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"If_your_items_dont_sell_donate_them\"><\/span><strong>If your items don\u2019t sell, donate them<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h6>\n<p>So what do you do with items that don\u2019t sell? You could try listing them for \u201cfree\u201d on sites like Facebook Marketplace or Craigslist. You would be surprised at what people are willing to take if it is free \u2014 everything from a broken grill to a wood pallet.<\/p>\n<p>You can also donate your items to charities and often they will even come to your house to pick them up.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Some charities that accept used items:<\/p>\n<ul class=\"articleList\">\n<li>\n      <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/vva.org\/donate\/\" class=\"icon none\">Vietnam Veterans of America<\/a><\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n      <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.bbbsfoundation.org\/\" class=\"icon none\">Brother\/Big Sister Foundation, Inc.<\/a><\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n      <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/satruck.org\/\" class=\"icon none\">The Salvation Army International<\/a><\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n      <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.habitat.org\/restores\/donate-goods\" class=\"icon none\">Habitat for Humanity International<\/a><\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n      <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.goodwill.org\/donate\/donate-stuff\/\" class=\"icon none\">Goodwill<\/a><\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>You can also list your items free on these sites:<\/p>\n<ul class=\"articleList\">\n<li>\n      <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/freecycle.org\/\" class=\"icon none\">Freecycle.org<\/a><\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n      <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/nextdoor.com\/\" class=\"icon none\">Nextdoor<\/a><\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n      <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/offerup.com\/\" class=\"icon none\">OfferUp<\/a><\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n      <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/buynothingproject.org\/buy-nothing-sharing-events\/\" class=\"icon none\">BuyNothing<\/a><\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><em>Cheryl Maguire\u00a0holds a master of counseling psychology degree.
