Selling unused packaging

I’m having a clear out and have a box of 49 kraft brown packaging boxes, 10x10x5cm (4x4x2"), that I’ve never used (apart from 1 out of the box of 50 that I used to store logo stamps in!). I bought them for sending rings, but I’ve never sold any rings online and have moved all my selling offline now. The boxes cost £20 on Amazon, so it would be nice to recoup a little fraction of that.

Maybe I should make a listing here, rather than just posting on the forum (against the rules, maybe?), but I can’t find any other listings for packing boxes etc. on Folksy, so maybe it’s not the sort of thing that’ll get searched for and seen here?

I’m asking £8.00 + £3.95 P&P

(Hope everyone’s well btw - I do still check in on the forums from time to time!)

Original Amazon listing here

Perhaps you could list them on Folksy as supplies, see below

Or you could offer them on here, I’m thinking of doing the same as I have an assortment of greeting cards and envelopes I need to get rid of.

Hi Carrie. Are you the lady who fixed a bike up to ride around the countryside selling your jewellery? If so, how are you getting on? Well, I hope. Jan

I am, and thanks for asking! It’s going well (though the weather’s not been brilliant here in N Scotland this summer - a far cry from the rest of the country from the look of it!). I re-designed my displays this year, and branched out from selling mostly sea glass as I was before, and I think it’s a bit better now. I have some photos on my camera from my last outing that I haven’t looked at yet, so maybe I’ll upload a pic tomorrow! xx

Completely forgot to put some photos up yesterday! I’m going to see if I can find some craft fairs for the autumn and the run up to Christmas, and I’m hoping I can find some that’ll let me use the bike instead of setting up a table. It’s amazing how much you can fit on a bike!

Hi Carrie, lovely photos of your bike in full selling mode - it looks incredible and I think it would be a huge draw at a craft fair.

I have bought surplus packaging from another Folksy seller - it was via a listing in the supplies section, but they did promote it here in the Forum first, which is where I found it (we used to have a few destash posts on the go at one time).

I sell most of my destash supplies via eB*y, so you may also want to list your boxes there.
