What is direct selling?

Direct selling at Etashee is similar to person to person selling. However, this is different from door to door selling and is mainly done online. With Direct Selling you can sell your products (which mainly includes pre-owned clothes and fashion accessories) one on one from the comfort of your home. It offers a convenient way to clear out your closet of all the unnecessary clutter. Besides, it also offers a convenient way for customers to purchase products at a much lower price than the original price.
