RE: Hive Thrifted - Your Hive/HBD Pre-loved Bargain Store

in HIVE THRIFTED2 years ago

This is such a cool idea! I love it. I went through a big decluttering phase a couple of months ago. Here, if you leave out bags of clothes, toys, or whatever, someone will come along and take it (we were actually shocked at how fast everything went!!). But yeah, throwing out stuff is such a rush, and this way, you know someone else will enjoy it. Great initiative, @lizelle!

Thank you @honeydue! Decluttering can become really addictive especially if you like picking up quaint stuff in thrift stores but eventually find you're not using them, or have no space for them! My son's girlfriend used to repurpose vintage finds, had someone reupholster good quality furniture that needed a facelift, and then sold it at a nice profit! She is very creative and had all kinds of side hustles. I'm sure she will soon be starting up little ventures over in the Netherlands :)
I hope we see your Hive Thrifted store here???
If you ship to any other country in Europe, would shipping costs still make it viable, or not?
Are you perhaps in touch with any Hivers from your country or Europe, to spread the word?
Would be great to have many thrift/vintage shops here on Hive :)

Your son's girlfriend sounds really cool!

I'd love to, I'll have to keep a lookout around the house. I'm in a very moving point in my life, and with each day, I'm realizing I won't be able to take all my stuff with me, wherever I go. So someone should get them.

Honestly, I don't know. I've never sent a package through Europe, though I have sent some to the US and Canada, and those can get pretty pricey. Then again, since I love traveling, I could just start a traveling delivery service thru Europe haha xD

Yeah, a bunch of people in Europe, though sadly all the Romanian Hivers I knew have long gone from here :( I'll definitely keep this idea on my mind. Again, great initiative, and good luck!!

Your son's girlfriend sounds really cool!

Yes, super smart & really cool!

Haha, start that service & you'll permanently be traveling 😄

Time to get the Romanians back, Covid changed the world in do many ways, in my opinion.

Have a great day @honeydue 🤗
