"Fast fashion is a major problem for the environment and global warming.” – Julia Gomez

Julia Gomez (@teenthrifts) is a teen reseller of clothes on eBay and the founder of All Yours.

Julia started All Yours at the age of 14 after learning about the damage fast fashion has on our environment. She resells clothing bought from thrift stores and garage sales and has recently outsourced some of the listing processes to a virtual assistant.

She has also launched a consignment part of her business, meaning she helps others sell their clothes online and gives them a split of the profits!

In our wide-ranging conversation, we discuss what to look for when reselling clothes on eBay; learning and refining her flipping strategy using auctions and buy now; creating a business with next to no money; and so, SO much more!
