How CrowFlip works

Three tasks, each with a clear path

Review a collection before buying

Record the condition and saleable items. Estimate individual prices and expenses yourself; a scanner value from active listings is not a confirmed sale price. Use the resulting buying limit to assess whether the asking price fits your calculation.

  1. Read an example with unsold items
  2. Calculate your maximum buying limit
  3. Prepare your sourcing checks

Sell clothes from your own wardrobe

Will you post the item or arrange collection? Compare the workflows first, then the proceeds after packaging and your travel costs. Accurate condition details belong in the listing you prepare next.

  1. Weigh up Vinted and Kleinanzeigen for clothes
  2. Calculate a Vinted sale
  3. Calculate a Kleinanzeigen sale

Ship and document a sale

Measure and weigh the packed parcel. Choose the appropriate service and allow for packaging costs. Separately, check your invoice format: a standard PDF is not a structured German e-invoice. The generator creates PDFs, not XRechnung or ZUGFeRD files.

  1. Päckchen or Paket: choose the service
  2. Compare domestic German postage
  3. Understand PDFs and German e-invoices
  4. Prepare a PDF invoice
