Selling Guide
Where to Sell
Mercari, Poshmark (best as a bundle item), or local garage sale. These are difficult to sell individually online due to shipping costs exceeding the value.
Selling Tips
Bundle these with 2-3 other pairs of shorts or loungewear items in the same size to make the shipping cost worthwhile for the buyer. Use keywords like 'comfortable', 'loungewear', and 'geometric print'.
