Deciding which items to load onto your seller store first can feel like a challenge, especially if this is your first foray into online sales. Use this list to consider the items and types of items you’ll use to introduce your store to your new national audience.  

  • Items You’re Known For
    • If your existing customers think of you as the "Stained Glass Folks", keep that going.  Add some of those pieces that make your business unique.  We want to highlight the things that make you special!  

Stained Glass

  • One-of-A-Kind
    • You know the pieces that I am talking about, the chandelier salvaged from the Rockefellers, the mantle that was carved in 1805, benches from 300 level of the Kingdome, and other pieces you can’t find in the box stores.  
    • Put them up and get them in front of an audience that spans the country, not just your local area!

  • Easily Out The Door 
    • What do you have that you can easily put into a standard box and smack a label on? Those smaller items that, you might have multiples of, you can get into a box lickety-split.  Let's get that loaded as an item on your Seller Store.   
  • Multiples
    • Figure out which items are “similar enough” to be listed in quantity. Brass hinges, for example. You have (75) 3.5" x  5" brass hinges? 

    Photo Tip: Take pictures of more than one hinge to show variation in condition and patina, so the buyers know what to expect.

    • Now That's a Story
      • What is that item that when you sell it it will make your day/month/year?
      • People are looking for that salvaged wonder that is the perfect for for their space or project. Get items like this up and visible. A Designer, for example, might be looking for that statement piece to get people talking in a hotel lobby they are redesigning.
      • The sky is the limit here!
