Hello All,
So random question -- whenever anyone wants to sell something -- old books, dvds, older networking equipment etc., where do you guys sell?
I bring this up for a couple of reasons:
1. In So Cal, there is a place called "Book Off" that buys and sells used items. I called them to check on prices, and they offer 10 cents to $1 max for books and $1-2 per dvd !!!! I almost hung up on the lady!
2. Craigslist -- it is a great site to post stuff, but there have been some very "interesting" people that I would not choose to meet, that I have to meet in order to sell things. They now have my cell phone, and email, which doesn't sit too well with me.
3. Ebay -- Good place to sell, but for something that is worth maybe $5 to $10 or less, there are times where posting a lot of these items can be quite tedious and seems almost not worth it.
What do you guys do when selling?
Thanks for recommendations in advance!
