fancy paper

I bid and won a lot that had some computers, computer stuff, and a bunch of fancy paper (read, christmas stock paper).

I'm talking like reams upon reams of it, along with envelopes.

This is the paper that retails for like .10 a piece, and has fancy print on them. Snowmen in a winter wonderland, fancy bows, etc.


Any idea of where to sell these? Seems like it might be a long time on eBay or Etsy.... Might try throwing some up there, but not holding my breath.

I was thinking about trying to contact some mom and pop craft supply place, but not sure if that will work or not.






Let me know if you need some stock paper for your christmas cards! :lol::lol::lol:

We got over 20,000 cards from a card shop(free) selling them on Ebay has been a nightmare . Even with good quality (£2-3($3-4))Retail value we can only get pennies per card (Plus the silly Ebay fees,postage and time). We sell in bulk lots to save time.But still buyers try to knock down prices and never stop asking silly questions.
Hope you have more luck than we are having.

I'm hoping with the fact that they are sealed in packages of 100, I might be able to do alright on them.

My plan is to see how many I can fit into a medium flat rate box and sell them that way, buy it now, pay some shipping...

Might try to sell the envelopes in large box quantities as well... or I'll never have to buy another envelope for as long as I live. HAHAHA


I like to think of the fees this way, in the fact that you wouldn't be selling them otherwise. I just sold a pair of D60 U bolt plates for $50 profit, which were worth maybe $1 in scrap. I would have never gotten that price around my parts. I'm shipping it across state.

Wish you well my bad exp may have made me bitter .....sorry for the neg reply ....

You need to get on facebook and look for yard sale groups local to you...I sell stuff on there within hours alot of times...and alot more focused than craigslist..although I sell on there as well.

True my yard sale group is tight. Not much traffic because I don't smooz. But if you have faith full followers and those that love to like or comment. Ijs it's exposure.

You will find groups of all interests and locations. It's Facebook the business side. Few know .......then most already did. Another advertising tool.

People that make scrapbooks might buy it.

thanks for the ideas guys.

once I get my move over, I'll gather these up and see what I can do about selling them.

talk to shop owners and maybe even people at the mall...you maybe able to find people who would want to buy them for there store during the xmas....only a few months away but paper does not take up much space and something I would look into.

Also contact companies and pitch it to them as a cheap way to send a merry xmas than cheap white paper and ect.

If you have to sell snow to a snowman...add a cherry..it helps (give them a reason to why they want it)

Post a picture of it, I might like a ream or so!
