Hi HN Community,<p>I have a large collection of dishware (not the most valuable, but many different sets) and I was thinking about starting a side-hustle selling/buying porcelain online with this as a base. I'd love to hear your experiences and advice on the following points:<p>1. Which platforms are best suited for this?
Do you have recommendations for platforms like eBay, Etsy, Amazon, or niche platforms specifically for dishware and porcelain?<p>2. Any experience in the porcelain market?
How can I gain experience and become more knowledgeable?<p>3. How would you approach getting started?
Any important legal or logistical considerations to keep in mind from the beginning?<p>4. Storage and shipping:
How do you manage storing a large amount of dishware to ensure it doesn’t get damaged?
Any tips for safely and cost-effectively shipping fragile items?<p>5. Experiences and pitfalls:
What mistakes have you made or seen that should be avoided?<p>I know this is not the typical question for this community, but I am always surprised at how broad the knowledge in the HN community is.
Looking forward to your responses!
