Selling Guide
Where to Sell
Local platforms like Facebook Marketplace or Nextdoor; best as a 'free' add-on or a very low-cost local pickup item.
Selling Tips
Clean off all visible pet hair before photographing. Emphasize that the toy is included. This item is best bundled with other higher-value pet supplies to make it worth the buyer's trip. High-quality lighting to show the feather colors will help.
