  • You set your own hours, you can list items at 3am if you want to!
  • No running around or spending your hard earned $$ on setting up your stall, no tables to rent no tent to put up!
  • If life gets to hectic and you feel you need to take a break from the selling that’s not a problem, simply put your store on vacation mode and you won’t accrue any fee’s, when your ready to get back on board, simply enable your page and let me know and I can post it on our FB page and our blog.
