How to sell items you no longer need?

Hey guys it been a while since my last update on the blog. I recently did something to handle all the extra items I own. I know the major problem we face while decluttering is not knowing what to do with the items we own after we remove them from our cupboards and shelves. Some are old which we happily throwaway. Incase some are usable we donate them mostly to our house help. But what about the things that are in really good condition and expensive and we cant donate them or give them away as such. That is when selling them comes in our mind.
We sold our old television to our maid which both useful to her plus we dint loose any money. But the what about certain good tech gadgets that we dont enjoy using or the function wear lehenga or certain good looking clothes you got on a vacation which dont fit you and you realized this after reaching home. Well I searched about this and the first suggestion I got was the famous olx. I'll talk about it later. Coming to my favorite app. It's Poshmark. This was something that I came across after watching my favorite youtube influencer who talks about minimalism Malama life. This app is recently launched in India and I think that its amazing.
Only drawback is the commission they charge on the sold items. But it's worth it because you can sell your items without worrying about anything.

How it works?
1. Click few pictures of your product.
2. Take a video of your product less than 15 secs.
3. Tap on camera icon and upload it.
4. Add few Details and the price you want to sell the item.
5. Thats it. Now wait for buyers to send you offers. You can check the remaining details in your app itself.


By this way I sold close to 18 items. Which includes all my extra bags, clothes and unused tech gadgets. Some people have also been doing online business using this platform. Incase you have something in mind you can check this out.
I wish you guys found this useful. Share and comment if you want to read more such useful blogs.

Extra story:
Coming back to the olx, I had bad experience with it. Its filled with scammers who show us that they are willing to buy anything we post without negotiating even one rupee. Then they ask our watsapp no and send qr code. If we scan that like fools and enter our pin then we lose our money. These scammers talk in a convincing way and force us to do it immediately before we change our mind.

I switched my work organization😉

First of all thank you for coming here to read my blogs. I haven't posted for a long time now and believe I will be more consistent going forward.  I joined a new organization 2 days back and it feels like the best decision I have taken in a while. I believe we must all keep looking for growth in all aspects of life. Be it career or health or emotional growth. Sometimes you get stuck in a loop of doing things and no matter how much you work hard you are never appreciated or more problems arise. A similar situation happened to me in life where I felt no amount of work is getting me out of this loop.  I had some really crappy work surrounded by tough people to handle. When I decided to switch my job for monetary and other reasons it was very hard to get any interview calls.  The key here is to keep believing. I never believed because market is bad and stuff but my husband kept constantly applying to jobs on my behalf. I had some mental breakdowns due to the work wherein I h...

An incident at the gym 💪💪

 Hi to whoever reading this blog sorry that I was missing for a while. You know caught up in work and blah and blah but these are just reasons as I was lazy to write this blog. I suddenly felt I have nothing to share here. But got my senses back so lets jump to the story😁 As I was hitting the gym the other day I saw this tremendous looking girl who had well built muscles better than any girl I have ever seen at the gym before. She looked something like below pic. You can tell by the look of it she has been working really hard to be that healthy and how consistent she must have been to have built that great physique. Whenever she walks into the gym you can feel everyone noticing her because of the great physique she has out of respect and admiration because gym ppl know how difficult it is to build muscles of that stature. Me and my husband while hanging out with one of this friends talked about this and he his friend asked me why dint I go and tell her she looked great. He said sh...

Dealing with Anger😈

Being angry is something that I do most of the time especially on my family because I never react at work or anywhere else as much as I feel free to do it at home. The main victim of my anger is my younger sister. It’s also true that she irritates me most of the time but she is kind of curious of things I do and tries to lookout to me to help her and I just scream and send her away. We also tend to do it with our mom’s more frequently. She asks us if we had lunch or dinner and we end up screaming at her asking her not to disturb because we are too busy in something which might not be that important than eating on time. Always think for a minute before you scream or be rude to someone because it’s not their fault to come and talk to you so that you show your frustration on them. Relax and enjoy things while doing them because having a cool mind gets the best out of you in any situation rather than a panicking person.
