I sell unique items on OLA.com. I prefer to sell many of my items in an online forum versus an antique mall because so many of the things I sell are fragile and valuable. Online sales are much safer for my expensive or one-of-a-kind items. Selling from the comfort of my own home is a plus because I can manage my “store” on my own time schedule…sometimes in my pajamas with coffee in hand! Of course, finding my niche market is key. With online auction sales, buyers can find the unique styles they want for decorating, antique collecting, clothing, one-of-a-kind trinkets, and more. Education and presentation are everything. I believe that success and creativity flow from your passion. My passion is antique and vintage items! I love photographing these treasures and passing on my knowledge of each item to the prospective buyers. Many of these items are so sentimental and, since I tend to romanticize the past, selling online allows me to share the story of each treasure…it’s history is passed on to the next owner. My online store involves work but I can sell my items with minimal expense, reach a global audience, attract the perfect buyers for my items and do it all with a local feel! Thanks for reading my blog!! 🙂 Valerie
