Tools, furniture and big items

Many resellers avoid them because they have to be moved. That’s why there’s less competition and more margin.

Tools

• Professional brands hold their value well.
• There are lots of inheritances and people closing a workshop or a job: good bundles at good prices.
• Test them: they start, the battery charges, there’s no play.

Furniture

• Quality or design furniture in good condition sells well.
• A clean, new handles or a paint job can double the price.
• Measure carefully and put the measurements in the listing.

Bikes, scooters and sports gear

• With a service (brakes, chain, wheels) they go up a lot.
• E-scooters: check the battery condition and that there are no illegal modifications.

What you need

• A car or van (or someone who lends you one).
• Somewhere to store things for a few days.
• Sales in person in your area: you meet, the buyer tests it and pays.
