Hi everyone in this group. Question:

Do any of you deal in linens?

My eBay reseller is coming again to pick up some more things.
I know he does not deal in linens, he told me on his last visit.

I have 4 old white woven Bates and Fieldcrest bedspreads and 7 boxes of never-out-of-the-box Irish hand embroidered handkerchiefs.
The Hankies are spotless and are in the original boxes(2 in each box). The spreads are clean and in excellent condition.
I have no idea how to sell these. Please PM me and maybe we can work out some kind of a consignment deal if you have a shop.

Maybe we can all work some kind of a DU seller deal. I don't even know how to price these things.
I have 1 queen spread, one full size and a matching pair of twins.
I know this type of thing is out of the norn but I trust you guys.

Any general thoughts about this idea?
Would love to find someone in NE. UPS is expensive.

Hi everyone in this group. Question: (Original Post) Paper Roses Jan 2012 OP
Just out of curiosity, why don't you sell them on eBay yourself? It isn't that hard. HopeHoops Jan 2012 #1
I'm not motivated enough, I guess. Too old, computer and digital camera illiterate. Paper Roses Jan 2012 #2

I also have no space to spread things out for photo's.
I have promised myself many times to take a stab at doing the eBay listing myself but have no courage.
I have followed the work the reseller I used and it is just too much for me to cope with.
I know it sounds lazy but I'm just not equipped to do the job myself.
