How would you sell all your stuff?

[ericwt]

Well it looks like I will be leaving the USA in November or December of this year.

It seems silly to store all of my stuff since the idea is to leave and only come back on visits.

I can sell the larger stuff with yard sales and auctions. But there is no way I could sell all the smaller items.

I was thinking of selling the smaller items on ebay or listing boxes of various small stuff on craiglist.

What would you do to sell almost everything you own? I have some time but I need ideas.

[puddlecruzier]

well yard sales are good. ask people you know if theres anything you have they might want to buy.

Have you thought about and estate type sale everyone comes looks at your stuff buys what they want.

you will never get rid of it all so donate some too.

[Skink]

I would do ebay...

[cron]

why dont you try one of your local pawn shops?

[BizzleLuvin]

pawn shops suck, you never get a good price. give your stuff away

[Skink]

No,,,put it in a dumpster...

[Samwhore]

Estate Sale.

[Skink]

Don't expect to get top dollar for anything... You might want to rent a table at a Flea market,,,they can be very interesting and funny as shit too...

[lagstronaut]

first of all i'd let all your friends walk through your house and pick out everything they want first

[mulltie]

maybe advertise the bigger stuff, like in a ''local trade '' paper or sumthing, nd stuff that really isnt worth selling.. charity shops maybe? just a tought

[smoke it]

estate sale, ebay, and craig's list

[Matt the Funk]

Ebay....you'd be amazed at some of the shit people are looking for. And if you got some friends that ever mentioned how cool something was, let themhave it.If you still have shit and you can't take just give it to a salvation army or good will.

[keeko]

give it too the poor

[BlazinTreesX3]

Yo i got it... Sell your big items but secretly stuff many little items into them..aha two birds one stone and one surprised garage sale goer.

Hey honney i got this recliner from the neighbor at his yard sale..

oh nice ill try it out..
*recline*
Wtf are these...beanie babies...and silverware...and is this a remote control?

LOL sel 5 pieces of furniture with everything else you own included- free of charge...

[originalblu]

bond fire:thumbsup:

[ericwt]

Thanks for all the ideas.

I am going to do a combination of all these ideas. Well most of them anyway.

My goal is to be rid of all my stuff in 3 months.

BlazinTreesX3: I love your idea. When I get to that phase I will be trying that idea. :thumbsup:

originalblu: I guess I could get rid of all my stuff quick that way! My town does not allow outdoor burning, however.

lol, something's telling me that you may have some kind of past experience that makes a table at a flea market funny as shit..

[Skink]

Burp...

[Dr.Hashman]

Give it to me! I will be glad to hold all of your items :) What are you selling by chance?

[ericwt]

Almost everything- House, Car, furniture ,books, etc.

The house and grow lights (if I have any grow lights) will go last.

I am going to be moving to Central America or the some place in the Caribbean, so I can get new stuff there.

[deftdrummer]

A lot of people in my area put things in the craigslist like a cough or table and have people pick it up in front of their house for free. They just leave it out all day and night and eventually you come home one day and its gone!

[potsmokingnome]

No,,,put it in a dumpster...

LOL that was bad Skink LOL

[BoilerUp]

I would start with the larger objects and move down, that way any small objects that are left over you can take with you and keep to sell later on eBay.

[Dr.Hashman]

I just discovered Craig's List. I am going to maybe buy a 400w system with a HPS and MH bulb, reflector, ballast, the works!

how come you dont know where you are going to and if you goto central america would'nt it be cheaper to take with you :rastasmoke:

[puddlecruzier]

maybe he did a crime and now dosnt want to do the time

[ericwt]

chewbacker: I have narrowed it down to a few countries based on taxes and other considerations. I have a large house and things I do not use. Why would I want to pay import duties on things I don't use? The idea is to spend several months down there looking for the right place to live.

puddlecruzier: You made me smile. I am not wanted for anything, nor do I have a criminal record. If I did I certainly would not be posting about leaving the US on the Internet.

[halfassedjediknight]

i dont know if anyones mentioned it yet..but craigslist.com is a good place to sell stuff. and if you just wanna give stuff away, you can do that on there too.

[Brett1038]

why not take some shit with you? i am sure you could use some of it....

edit: never mind, didnt read your post on the 2nd page

[chewbacker]

[bluntblaze]

[growinforthefuture]

damn you stoners are not good at making money.. just give it away man....


but it wouild be hilarious to have large amounts of grow equip. on your lawn for a yard sale.. the neiggbors would be like sonoabitch... i dunno if you got a bunch grow stuff

[ericwt]

I will always have a computer with me. I will also post when I can.

Getting rid on my stuff is a pain in the butt. It will be a few months before I can get rid of most of it.

Thanks for all the suggestions
