Selling as a job lot?

[SpotsandBays]

Anybody had any success selling their horsey items as a job lot?
I’ve got a bunch of stuff I just want rid of. Rugs, bits, travel boots etc - I really can’t be bothered to list it all individually!
Usually I would have just taken it all to Catlips and swapped it for stuff I could use but I don’t believe it’s open anymore since Sheila’s passing.

My friend sold a massive amount of stuff (sanctuary donations) to a woman that happened to be setting up a rug laundry and repair business. A lot of it was unsellable as it was through dirt and damage but she will definitely make something out of some of it. It took a long time to find that person though. You just have to be prepared to take a big financial hit on what you could get otherwise.

Every so often we sell stuff through clitheroe auction.

Yeah I’m prepared to take a hit on the money. I just want rid! If it doesn’t go I’ll try donating it to charity I think

Some people buy job lots then sell the items individually online at a profit around here. I know of a few women who do this to supplement their income.

List it on here you never know you might sell a bit of it and it's free

Yeah I think I’ll pop a post on Facebook and see if anybody would be interested in doing that!

Love a good job lot. Trick is to have everything clean, displayed neatly and list as descriptively as possible using brands and sizes.

I recently sold a job lot of rugs and I had people trying to offer me more than I was asking just so they could secure them for themselves.

If you get to the charity stage then I think the home of rest will take stuff for their tack sales

If you're close to Catlips you may be close to Cecil's Horse Sanctuary. If you donate equipment anything they can't use they sell.
