Default On line with Loot

Have advertised some of our furniture and bits online with Loot. Anyone had any dealings or success with these?

Not sure if this helps, but we got a great IKEA corner six-seater a couple of years ago thru loot (we didn't want to spend money as we knew we were going to Oz soon-ish). We've been quite happy with it, and we got a great price! We plan to get rid of it the same way.

We also sold a horrible old sofa for £50 - I couldn't believe it! I would have paid someone to take it, it was that bad. It was bought by a lady wanting to furnish flats she was renting out. Having said that, it's all down to location methinks. We're in London where there's a greater demand for second hand furniture, than somewhere less urban, I guess.

Hubby plans to put some technical bits & bobs on e-bay, some of it will go to loot/thegumtree.com and some of it to a car boot sale. Most of it however, probably to a rubbish bin!

Good luck!

Well I am going to stick all my furniture on their and see what happens. A lot of them are period pieces, and if I get half of what we paid then I will be happy.
Will work out cheaper then to replace than shipping it, and I dont like it much. Old junk I call it, Mick thinks it is marvelous!!

I've just decided today to have a garage sale at the end of July. There's far too much for a car boot sale and I'm not sure what price to put it in paper at, so we'll have a little party weekend and sell as much as poss to finish just before tip closes....................
