Fagin’s Loft Ltd was incorporated on 24 April 2026 to formalise the business structure and enable a clean transfer as a going concern.
The business operates primarily online through eBay, serving customers across the UK with international reach via eBay’s Global Shipping Programme.
The model is location-flexible and can be run from a home office, storage unit, warehouse or small retail/storage premises, with no reliance on high street footfall. Operations include stock storage, photography/listing, packing and dispatch, plus space for larger furniture and decorative items.
Key assets include the established eBay store presence, branding, templates, social media and operational goodwill. Stock/inventory is excluded from the asking price and available separately at valuation (SAV).
No formal customer contracts are in place, with sales conducted transactionally through eBay. A dedicated business bank account is in progress, and the owner is willing to provide up to
One of the strongest opportunities lies in increasing listing volume and marketing consistency. Greater use of eBay promoted listings, enhanced category targeting and regular stock uploads could materially improve sales performance. Increased social media activity across TikTok, Instagram and Facebook could also significantly enhance brand awareness and customer engagement.
Further growth could be achieved through launching a dedicated Shopify or WooCommerce website, developing an email marketing database and expanding international sales opportunities.
The business also presents scope to diversify into related services such as valuation work, sourcing services, consignment sales and curated collections for interiors or prop supply.
A buyer with existing stock or sector experience could integrate immediately into the established eBay platform and scale operations further by introducing part-time administrative, listing or dispatch support.
