I used to do the same thing with freebies from work, it was cosmetics, jewellery and accessories mainly.. I lost my accounts due to the rights owner of one particular brand (not a cosmetic one though). I did not want to give my work details to supplier, as although I was legitimately allowed to take or buy the items from work (they had little sales for charity etc), I didnt want them to know I sold them on ebay! Instead I brought the items in question to the merchandizer of the brand in person and she could see they were authentic, however whilst telling me she would try and help get my accounts back, I think she didnt want the items sold on ebay, so helped do the opposite!
Anyway long story short, you are in a similar situation, if asked for supplier, who will you say it is, does it genuinely look like household items you are selling, do you have receipts, or will you give sisters work details....if not, you need to be prepared with another source that it could have come from... |
