À propos de Devon

Je suis journaliste basé dans la Bay Area (Calif.). En tant que freelance, j'écris sur la culture, la race, le genre, l'environnement, les finances personnelles, le mode de vie et les carrières. I graduated from Boston University’s College of Communication (‘15) and was subsequently handpicked to participate in NerdWallet’s Writer Startup Program. J'ai finalement travaillé pour l'entreprise pendant près de deux ans, mettant d'abord mes compétences en journalisme de service au service du domaine de l'enseignement supérieur et des prêts étudiants, puis en tant que reporter généraliste en finances personnelles. J'ai saisi l'occasion d'écrire, aussi souvent que possible, sur les problématiques touchant les femmes, les minorités, les personnes à faible revenu et les étudiants de première génération. J'ai initié de nouveaux formats de contenu et lancé une série de portraits prêts pour les réseaux sociaux sur des personnes qui ont remboursé leur dette étudiante. J'ai couvert l'actualité financière et analysé des feuilles de calcul de 1,000 lignes, me suis immergé dans le monde obscur des enquêtes rémunérées, j'ai parlé aux présidents de sociétés de prêt et à des planificateurs financiers ainsi qu'à des défenseurs des débiteurs et à des personnes confrontées à l'endettement et à des revenus fluctuants. Mon travail a été publié dans LA Times, Mashable, Business Insider, MarketWatch et USA Today, entre autres. N'hésitez pas à me contacter pour des commandes d'articles, des propositions de projets ou pour toute question. (Le courriel est préférable — ************)

8 Places to Sell Stuff Online

Nerdwallet 2 juin 2026 English

The article provides a comprehensive guide to various online selling platforms, detailing their fee structures and operational models. It compares major marketplaces like Amazon and eBay, which have higher fees but offer quick sales due to high traffic. Amazon's fees vary by selling plan, with individual sellers paying per item plus a referral fee, while professional sellers pay a monthly subscription. eBay charges a final value fee, insertion fees, and optional promotion fees. Bonanza has a simpler fee structure with no listing fees but takes a percentage of the final sale. Local sales platforms like Craigslist and Facebook Marketplace offer fee-free transactions but lack the protections of online marketplaces. For niche items like clothes and crafts, Poshmark, Ruby Lane, and Etsy are suggested, each with their own fee policies. Lastly, electronics can be sold through Swappa or Gazelle, with Swappa allowing sellers to set prices and Gazelle acting as a reseller.
