Thredup is an easy way to sell items and sourcing online.
We’ve all heard the hysteria about thredup. Especially now with resellers sourcing online. What gives?
Months ago, I sent in about 4 boxes of stale inventory to thredup. The process is easy. Sign up for an account online, request a kit and send it in. You can request a bag, take a couple of weeks, or print a label and use your own boxes. Consignment does take a while and the payout is very little, depending on what you send in. I sent in blah items-got blah pay. I will continue to sell as I gather stale items that are not selling anywhere.
With the credit I did have, I was able to source items for my reselling stores pretty cheaply. Everyone’s offers will be different. My first purchase was half off, free shipping, new items. Score!!!! There are tons of items available and shopping can take a while. Use your search filters wisely.

Yield: 48 bars
Prep: 20 min
Bake: 20 min
Cook: 10 min
Chill: 2 hrs
Crust Ingredients:
2 tsp vanilla
1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
1 1/4 cup all purpose flour
1/4 cup powdered sugar
Caramel Ingredients:
3/4 cup unsalted butter
1/2 cup sugar
1/4 cup corn syrup
1 14 oz cansweetened condensed milk
Chocolate Topping:
11.5 oz milk chocolate chips
Directions:
Preheat oven to 350 F. Line bottom and sides of a 9×13 pan with parchment paper. You can also use a 7×11 or 8×8 pan, this depends on the thickness you like.
In a mixing bowl, cream together butter, vanilla and powdered sugar. Add in flour until well mixed. Press into the bottom of pan and flatten out, covering the entire bottom. Bake for 20 minutes, 25 for 7×11 and 8×8 pan.
Begin to make the caramel when crust has about 10 minutes left to bake.
In a medium saucepan, add butter, sugar, corn syrup and canned milk. Cook on medium-low heat until all ingredients are dissolved. Increase heat just a little, stirring frequently, bring to a boil, then reduce heat back to medium-low heat, stir frequently and cook for 8-10 minutes. Caramel will be thick and begin to pull from the sides, do not let this burn, stir frequently.
Pour caramel over the cookie crust and spread evenly. Let cool for 10-15 minutes.
In a medium sauce pan, melt chocolate chips on low heat, stirring constantly, pour over caramel layer and spread evenly. Chill.
Are you a reseller? Just getting going? Selling on only one platform?
It’s time to cross post. Cross posting is a must in the reselling business. The more exposure for your items means a better faster chance at sales. It is highly recommended that you branch out and explore other platforms in you reselling journey.
Start with adding one more platform. Get to know the basics, cross post your items and learn the platform. When ready, explore others and add listings. This will get tedious, fast. Especially if you also work full time.
There are several services that can make the cross posting easier. I highly suggest budgeting for the service you choose. I myself sell on 3 platforms and cross post myself.
Bonanza and Trugether are other services to use when cross listing. Since I am not familiar with these, do some research and learn the specifics of these services. They may require different software and a change of where the final selling fee is distributed.
A VA, Listperfectly, Poshmarksharer and Vendoo are popular Cross Listing services to use. These will have a monthly fee.
Depending on the size of the inventory to be listed and cross listed, one of these services is a must.
Do you any of these services? Have a favorite? I’d love to hear from you!
A stay at home mom, reselling my days away....
