From Trash to Treasure: How an Empty Gin Bottle Sold for £10 on eBay
London, UK – A recent online video has shed light on an unexpected niche within the e-commerce market: reselling discarded items. Kirsty, a part-time eBay and Vinted reseller, shared her success story of selling an empty Whitley Neill gin bottle for £9.99 on eBay. The bottle, which she discovered near a bottle bank, originally retails for £20-25 when full. Kirsty explained her reasoning for listing the empty bottle, stating, "I thought people like these colored glasses for upcycling projects, so I knew someone on eBay would buy it." Her prediction proved correct, as a buyer paid the full asking price. Kirsty emphasized the potential in collecting unique or unusually colored glass bottles for resale, catering to individuals interested in upcycling or collecting. She also detailed her meticulous packaging process, ensuring the fragile item would reach its new owner safely by using extensive bubble wrap and sturdy boxing. This unconventional approach highlights the growing trend of finding value in items typically considered waste.
