    I've never used it, or even looked at it, but there's a site called Vinted apparently that you can sell clothes in.

    Give that a go. People buy anything I hear.

    A Barbour for going out.

    I've got about six winter coats, that's when you wear a coat. Barbour, Technical waterproof, shower proof, mountain down, knocking about down, mountain down gillet, knocking about down gillet, Harrington.

    You should own them all tbh!!

    I used to be hooked on grey before I moved on to blue...

    Just sticking it on ebay now I'll bung a reserve on and see how it goes.. I've seen something a bit more plain for like 30 quid, so I think it'll work out OK..

    If not I'll bung it on vinted its just ive got a EBay account and I'm crap on computers

    I wear mine mainly for work now; chinos, nice M&S shirt, brogue boots and a blue Harrington (RL Polo).

    Very dapper, even if I do say so myself!

    Well I've stuck that jacket and shirt on.. No interest yet, but I'll see how it goes... I've put them on buy it now and around £20 cheaper than I can find anywhere online.. I don't know what to expect put if there's no interest after 48 hrs I'll drop the price again.... I've seen things I like for next to nothing

    Stick it on an auction mate, bidding ending on a Sunday night always seems to get the best results btw.

    Depends where you’ve pitched the Buy it now mate, too low and you’ll undersell it, too high and you’ll possibly put off potential bidders.

    Not flogged much in a while, but I used to put no reserve and just see where it ended up. If you get 2 or 3 early bidding you’re likely to get a late frenzy in my experience. Quality of the pics is important btw.

    I used images from online then one in the packing.

    I've change to 10 day auction and free postal.. If I get bidders I'll drop the buy it now offer it to them for like 20 less which is basically my reserve anyway

    I know mate I think the most depressing part is putting them on ebay and despite them being alot cheaper than stores no ****er wants them.

    Tbh I think you're just dealing with people that can't afford much... I put a brand new pair of shorts on still selling £25.00 on line with 50% off ., so I thought bung them on for a tenner and some scruffy **** offered £8... I thought **** me 2 pound less. What a disgrace
