@wearethrift Maybe u could put items up for a finite time & if they don’t sell the donor owes £1 for each item that doesn’t sell, 50p to cover costs & 50p to go towards their chosen charity. Most people donating will be doing so for charity, not to make money so they should be fine with this?

@wearethrift just been looking through ur for sale items, there’s 30pages of items £5 or less which means none of these items will be donating anything to charity when sold. Shouldn’t items min price be £6 so people’s charities at least get something? How do u price up items? Thx

@SaraDaviesCC @wearethrift @joe_thrift If I was in your shoes I think I would have been a bit annoyed with him asking @TejLalvani to match the 10%. But then very pissed off when he then had the cheek to ask you to lower your offer after getting knocked back. Maybe that's why I'm not a business man 😁

@TappendenSue @SaraDaviesCC Hey Sue. That sounds absolutely awesome. Exactly what we love to see. We do need to charge a fee so that we can pay for our warehouse and staff - hopefully it means we can grow and grow to make an even bigger impact ...

@SaraDaviesCC I run an annual Edit sale for sellers to sell their high end unwanted clothes. They pay to put them in the Sale. All that £ goes to Hospice plus entry money takings. Seller gets all sales money. Everyone happy. And buyers can try on items to select. No third parties. Better?

@BuytaskerCEO @SaraDaviesCC @joe_thrift Hi Mick, Thanks so much for the kind words & enthusiasm. Definitely some teething issues with the 10s of ks of visitors, but all sorted. They cut the bit where Joe said '33% back to the you' as Thrift+ credit or John Lewis vouchers..

Well, watching Dragon's Den and I LOVE the concept of @wearethrift. Get rid of your old clothes, get some money back and donate to charity whilst helping to build a business so in time even more can be donated to charity. Love it! #dragonsden

@bjmason91 Hey Benjamin, sorry for the slow reply. I think you mean for shopping on our site? Yes we charge £3.95 for delivery. And there is no minimum order amount. Hope that helps!

Great business on dragons den last night, Thrift+. A great counter to the fast fashion industry, allowing you to resell your old clothes and donate to charity. Great idea, @wearethrift.

@Heleni08 Unfortunately not all items sell before they reach our £5 minimum. This is under constant review though so we are very open to hearing your thoughts about how we might be able to approach things differently, while making sure we can cover costs. Thanks!

@Heleni08 Hey Helen! We completely agree - we don't accept / upload any items for £5 or less because we want to make sure that charities benefit from every sale. These items that you see for £5 will have been slowly discounted to help them sell.
