With Facebook marketplace, the monster eBay and now a host of others...ThredUp, and so many!
this is a big deal...I wonder what percentage of overall economic output is comprised of reselling? just curious.
it's certainly efficient and environmentally friendly.
Anyway, passing along that this weekend, I found a new one (to me) with a niche: Treet.
Apparently, it's hosted by the retailers themselves. Interesting.
Do you have a favorite place to buy or sell in the resale marketplace? details why?
It certainly beats the old days of putting stuff out in your yard or garage once or twice a year lol.... (not that there's anything wrong with that).
Peace & Popsicles.
PS/One day I hope to visit The Netherlands on King's Day. I'm told it's one big lively party. Have you been?
King's Day is a national holiday in the Netherlands celebrating the birthday of King Willem-Alexander. On this day, the entire country, including streets, canals, and parks, turns a vibrant orange. The color orange is associated with the Dutch royal family, the House of Orange-Nassau, and wearing it symbolizes national unity and pride.
One of the most famous traditions on King's Day is the vrijmarkt or free market, where people sell second-hand items. This nationwide flea market allows people to set up stalls without a permit, creating a lively atmosphere filled with selling and shopping.
