Comment on Why 3 MIT Grads Want to Send You an Empty Box

Comments

Here is my take: Just send me the box, and I'll put the stuff. I don't want to take a photo and list it and then agree on the price. If I did that, I'll just go and sell it on eBay on my own. How is it different?

So I give you the stuff. You figure out if it can sell. You take a good percentage cut. You deposit the money for me. Just make the process transparent in case I cared about the details.

I believe the difference is that they find the optimal price, deal with annoying buyers and pick it up at your house.
