Newbie help please

​

My MIL passed back in February and my FIL has asked me to take care of her clothes and shoes. She had a personal shopper/private store and designer where she got all of her items. Shoes and clothing are higher end brands and everything is in immaculate condition. She had been ill over the last 3 years and lost a lot of weight but still kept her retail therapy strongly intact. I would guess over 60% maybe more has never been worn and if worn, no more than 2x max. When she found a brand she loved she would buy it in every color available in her size.

The plan was to have a buyer come and take what he wanted and cut a check then I would list what he didn't take. The same buyer that would take the sale clothes from her designer. Insert family drama and a psycho sister in law, that was all blown up resulting in finding a solution for these clothes and shoes.

We had to pack them all up and bring them to our house, and we are busting at the seams. I signed up and slowly started to list on posh but it is slow, not much traction and am having similar experiences as others that have posted here. She was very petite always then continued to get smaller as her health declined so everything is xxs-00 to S-4's which I know can be a challenging size to sell.

I set up an ebay account to cross post but I just haven't had the time to focus there and honestly only have 3 listings haha. Am I even looking in the right direction here? I know it will take a while to build up and I will keep working at it but I am also wondering if I am barking up the wrong tree.

She was the most beautiful and kind soul. She was known for her fashion and it was so much of her identity and passion. I adored her and we had a very special relationship and I know it seems like im complaining, I'm not, just overwhelmed. Without much direction. This is a way of honoring her also and respecting her dignity and passion.

So I suppose I am looking for advice from experienced sellers on the best platform/platforms, tips or tricks and best cross posting app. Words of wisdom or any support please.

Thank you Kindly!
