I think it's great that you are donating to your shelter too.

One thing I've noticed is that boy items are harder to sell than girl items. Dresses will sell faster and for more money than a boy shirt/vest. People just seem to want to buy more and will spend more on the girls.

I also noticed that some of your items are from Walmart. $10 is a great price if you can't find it locally, but most people can find those at their walmart for $7 or have it shipped to their local store for free from walmart.com

I like to see a good description of the item when I buy..I like to know the brand, size, and measurements.

Good Luck
