School cleaner Stormee James has made about $1,700 (£1,265) from selling used clothing this year, finding buyers for everything from bathing suits to her boyfriend s t-shirts. At first it was kind of a boredom thing, the 31-year-old from Ohio says. It started to get into, Am I going to need this for money? though thankfully I ve kept my job.
Stormee used Poshmark, a resale platform which allows buyers and sellers to connect directly, taking a cut of each sale. It says sales this spring were up 50%. Rival UK-based Depop saw business double at the height of the lockdowns and says has growth has remained solid since.
