1. Know What It's Worth

First of all, the adage: “One man’s trash is another’s treasure,” isn’t always true. Damaged, stained, broken, and otherwise “as-is” items generally don’t turn heads unless they are unique, or valuable for repair parts (for example, vintage cameras a hobbyist can collect – or cannibalize for out-of-production parts). In doubt? Check online to see if there’s demand for your item. eBay Canada, for instance, has useful buyers’ and sellers’ guides that provide some indication.

    Try Bonanza.com

    There are no listing fees, and once your item sells, the fee is only 3.5%, as opposed to the outrageous fees on eBay.

    Listings do not expire, the other sellers are friendly and helpful, and customer service is second to none!

    I've been on Bonanza.com for over 3 years, and would NEVER go back to eBay.
