1 Ebay gets the most traffic on a Sunday evening, while app-based listing sites such as DePop peak on weekday mornings around 8am when people browse through during their daily commute. 2 Shoddy photos are the way to buy, but they definitely aren’t the way to sell. Instead, snap up bargains and then reshoot them, relist them and book that trip to St Tropez with the profits. Easy. 3 The thumbnail is key: 60% of people use their phone for online shopping now, so that first image potential buyers see has to be eye-grabbing. White space and good framing is essential.
