As eBay still continues to raise its fees, many sellers are looking for other venues to sell their clothing items.  I, for one, have stopped selling at eBay for this particular reason.  Although eBay is a great marketplace and yes, there are a gajillion buyers browsing right now - there are other websites who would gladly help you for way less…or even for free!  Here are 5 other ways or venues to sell your clothing online:
1.  PersonalCloset.com - this is a free service with absolutely no fees or commissions whatsoever.  You can either buy, sell or even donate clothing at this website.  

2.  eCrater.com - this is another free marketplace where they host your very own website.  You choose the template, upload the pictures and information…voila!  For an example of what a website at eCrater looks like, check out my greeting card website.   

3.  Etsy.com - this website is strictly for handmade items, so if you design your own t-shirts, handbags or knit cute clothing, then this is the site for you.  To list an item it only costs $.20 for four months and there are no commission fees.  

4.  Start a clothing blog - if you like to blog, why not start a blog and sell your clothing on it?  If you use a service like Blogger, the web hosting would be free.  The only minus I see is that you would need to drive traffic to your blog which may take some time.  However, in the long run it could be a worthwhile venture - especially if you want to make this a full-time gig.  You may also want to read up on how to manage your blogging business if you decide to go this route.

5.  Mohina.com - an online boutique where you can sell new and nearly new clothing and accessories.  This website is based in the UK and fees start at £1.50 for a 4-week listing.
