What packaging do I need for reselling in Australia?
Start with Australia Post prepaid satchels (covers most clothing) and recycled boxes for anything rigid. Add bubble wrap for fragile items. Buy poly mailers in bulk — they're $5 per 100 on Temu. For branding on a budget, a rubber stamp with your shop name on kraft tape is all you need. Don't overspend on packaging until you're selling 30+ items a month.

Key things to know for Australian sellers
Australian online selling has its own quirks: GST registration thresholds, Australia Post rate structures, and platform-specific buyer behaviour differ from the US and UK advice you'll find most readily online. Checking ATO guidance directly and using the Australia Post postage calculator for accurate quotes are good starting points.
Using multiple platforms together
Most successful Australian resellers end up selling across at least two platforms. The marginal effort to list on a second platform is much lower if you already have photos and a description, and reaching two different buyer pools meaningfully increases your chances of a sale.
