Activity: 9% Longevity: 66% | | I need to buy a Manaikin! Help?
I don't know jack about these. But I bought a large liquidation of men's clothing. These particular pcs I am 1000% sure would look better taking pics on a manikin than lying out flat on the floor, etc. If anyone has advice on how to purchase one of these. Maybe what to look for etc. If there is any differences, not exactly and every day purchase for most people if you know what I mean. Also this is regarding predominately men's clothing, any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Bought all the ones I have had over the years on eBay. Free standing ones I find the best, but they do take up a lot of room. Great fun for Halloween though |

Try a department store, they always have a few they don't use and may be willing to part with one.

I would look on eB like others have stated. Department store is really hit or miss but you could ask who they get supply from

Huge competition in mens clothing.
As most things pictures, descriptions and pricing is vital to any success in this area.
You can buy free standing, half or whatever you need right from ebay.
So taking awesome pictures can make or break the bank.
Is your purchase new or used mens clothing?

You tell the seller the items are SNAD and you are keeping them AND want the mannequin and want postage costs refunded.
Make sure the claim is over 45 days too |
