Hi,

Long time lurker and a first time poster! I was recommended to this site by one of my buyers from eBay. I would like to comment that this community has such a wealth of valuable information! It seems like it's also a great place to do business as the members here seem to be really passionate about quality clothing & accessories. I mostly sell on eBay but I wanted to start listing some items on here as well! I was wondering if you guys had any advice or word of wisdom for a first time SF seller.

Thanks in advance for your help!

You are exactly the type of member we need! I love it when people join for the sole purpose of selling their merchandise, without contributing anything of value.

Rule of thumb : If its not at least 85% off retail, it probably wont sell here.

Rule #2: If you're no longer selling anything on ebay, change your sig.

Rule #4: Never put measurements when listing on this site until after the first post asks for them. That will give you a free bump.

Sell John Lobb or Edward Green shoes.

That stuff seems to fly off the proverbial shelf.

Do not sell Gucci, BR, Armani, D&G or any mainstream sans "quality" brands.
