Cell phone technology<\/a> is making it easier to take your collectibles, in some case, right out of your garage and sell them online. Believe it or not I\u2019m talking about a much broader audience than just E-Bay. I\u2019m talking about introducing what you have to sell to an audience of possible buyers that is several platforms wide, making it possible for you to reach treasure hunters in a wide variety of places and all you need is an Android, or I-Phone. In case you haven\u2019t heard about the free apps I\u2019m about to mention you will soon see how valuable these four apps are, especially if you want to sell online, even without owning a website.<\/p>\n

\nFor the Apple-I-phone download the free app \u201cSell Simple\u201d and you\u2019ll see what I mean. The Sell Simple app allows you to take a few snap shots of the things you want to sell, the app lets you enter a short description, and set a price; after that click on the Sell-Simple-Listing and your item-post is sent out. In a flash your item appears on Instagram, Facebook, Twitter as well as Amazon and E-Bay, it\u2019s just that simple. The app also closely monitors the items you put up for sale and guards against the accidental double sale of the same item on all of the above mentioned platforms.
\nThe app \u201cPOSHMARK\u201d works on both the I-Phone and Android cell phones, the listing of your item on POSHMARK is free but they do charge a small commission fee on your sale after you and the buyer have negotiated a selling price. The free app POSHMARK is great for selling designer clothes and other fashion items.<\/p>\n

Free apps \u201cSHPOCK\u201d and \u201cYARDSALE\u201d are also available for local sales that might include large furniture and other precious bobbles-bangles-and beads. YARDSALE will post instantly on Facebook and Twitter and even offers options to set up alerts for new items. Shpock let\u2019s prospective buyers browse by category to narrow their search and relies more on photographs so take the best picture(s) you can with your camera and be sure to highlight\/show any imperfections, nicks, or scrapes, the item you\u2019re selling might have.
\nCaution: as with all new technologies don\u2019t put all of your items for sale in the one basket, so-to-speak. What I mean is, try testing either or all, of these sales sources and make sure they operate the way you want them too. They all sound like great ways to market and sell item you might have but I have not used either of these platforms so make sure you test before you commit totally to one or the other. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
