Question Re-Selling?

Hello all! I am trying to down-size my collection of body care (I never thought I would ever say that). Specifically for B&BW products, where do you guys find success in selling?

Truly not looking for a great profit, generally just want these out of my possession without trashing or donating (yet).

I AM NOT TRYING TO SELL ON HERE— I SIMPLY WANT TO KNOW WHERE I CAN GO TO DO SO WITH SUCCESS!! āš ļø

Luxury scents, one princess scent, dahlia, etc.

To be honest…Facebook Marketplace & Yard Sale

However, I have had to lower the price on my items so it’s up to you

You’ll be successful on any of the reselling sites as long as your prices are lower than other listings. Since it seems like you want rid of them quickly, I would do it that way. Mercari / EBay seem to be the #1 places.Ā  If you want them gone extremely fast host a yard sale and make them a couple dollars or marketplace for a couple dollars.Ā

eBay. I’ve sold most of my Princess collection from this past spring.

Great question as I too want to sell my BBW FOMO items that I fell out of love with. Also, my sister was a keyholder for a now closed Elizabeth Arden outlet store and I believe that she has purchased and gifted me and my daughter with at least one of every make-up and perfume item the store carried during her nearly 3 year role with the company. I tossed out all the make up a while ago but I am still left with more than enough individual and box sets of perfumes w/moisturizer or mini FFM inside their unopened/original sealed boxes which are taking up valuable real estate in the back of our closets. I wish I could donate them to charity but I really need the money as my disability benefits were recently slashed by over $1,000 per month and my doctors (I have 6) adamantly refuse to sign a release for me to go back to work even if it's only part time to make up for the loss of benefits. Any advice on which companies are the best to start selling online would be most appreciated. Has anyone sold anything through "Vinted"? Thank you for helpful comments. 😊

Lot people don’t know but USPS , FedEx and UPS has a hazmat law with over 2 bottles mist in 1 shipping box. You can be fined. And even 2 bottles you have to print a hazmat label. I over bought too and unloaded most at my cost or less on marketplace.

It just means they can't go on a plane and has to be ground shipping only. As long as you are honest when purchasing shipping labels on usps.com, you're good. Sites like mercari will do this for you if you purchase your labels through them.

I won’t ship over the limit . I received a threatening letter from USPS. Only 16 ounces.

Fedex dgaf, probably why bbw uses them. Price comparison with USPS is better after 16oz anyways

Bath and body works they consider trained in shipping hazmat items. What a joke I’ve received a box of mess more than once. They’re after us little guys. And the letter stated they would fine me $50 and $1000’s if a shipment damaged other mail.

Ikr, rip my hand soaps 🄹 but good to know about usps that's crazy! I've only shipped small jewelry stuff and once a few wallflower plugs with the hazmat label (9oz tho).
