• Best honest about the clothes regarding the colour, quality, size and also the material. 
• Try to sell the clothes in the right season. Nobody would buy winter clothes in spring or summer or vice versa. 
• Be competitive and realistic when outing price tags on your clothes. Nobody will buy overpriced used clothes or at the same price as you brought them.
• Research on how to get your clothes on the websites above for sell. Observe what others are selling and how you can learn a lot.
• Visibility matters a lot so you might want to do some posting on Facebook, Instagram and Pinterest using the relevant hashtags.
