The last mistake Mandragiu mentions is underpricing. "People forget to factor in their time. Sourcing, cleaning, photographing, listing, marketing, PACKING, and shipping - it all adds up. If you do the math and realize you're making less than minimum wage on an item, it might not be worth selling at all. Pricing should reflect the value of your time, not just the item," she explains.

In order to be more successful at selling, listing constantly, and taking good pictures are musts, says Lopez.
"Selling online can be very profitable, but to be truly successful,l you must treat it like a business and put in the time. Having a good organizational system is critical as you increase your inventory. Using a platform like ListPerfectly allows you to scale your business. They use AI, so you don't even write your own descriptions, they have picture editing tools, and you're able to crosspost your listings."
"My tips are to list consistently and not to rely solely on SEO. It helps, but the competition is high, so you need to actively drive traffic, especially through social media. Sometimes, even the most gorgeous piece can sit unsold simply because the right buyer never saw it. It’s not always about the item, it’s about visibility," Mandragiu suggests.
"Keep promoting, use strong keywords, and make sure your listings are getting in front of enough eyes. Also, try to style your items when possible, it helps buyers envision them in their own homes. I should do this more often myself!"
