This Morning money expert Dan Hatfield has revealed how we can make the most of the "instant cash" making potential on platforms like Vinted. There is approximately £30 billion of unwanted clothes in this country with 350,000 tonnes of clothing ending up in landfill each year. "As a society, we are seeing a real movement to challenge the fast fashion industry with a more sustainable and healthy approach to clothing where we re-purpose, re-use, and re-sell but how you approach this money-making opportunity, is the difference between making £50 or £500," according to the pawnbroker.
These unwanted clothes could be making people "instant cash" on "great" platforms like Vinted, Hatfield commented. A post shared by Joff Hatfield-Powell (@joffpowell) The columnist pointed to Vinted's "mass appeal" and its "broad demographic and fashion styles to suit everyone". Hatfield added: "The platform is simple to navigate and use plus, more importantly, they don’t charge the seller to list their items".
To help you "maximise your money-making potential" on the crowded platform and "guarantee plenty of pounds in your pocket", the expert has shared his top tips. The pawnbroker urges Vinted users to start by emptying all of their clothes from wherever they store them and laying them all out in front of them. Dan added: "Then I want you to properly scrutinise each piece of clothing and ask yourself whether you wear it often or hardly ever".
After you're happy that you have a pile of clothes.
