    Default Craigslist or Ebay?

    DH and I cleaned and cleaned and cleaned......He is parting with lots of nice clothing and shoes, and I have some purses, and old Franklin Planner covers, toys, kids cloths and on, and on, and on. I have already listed about 10 of his really nice XLT shirts on ebay, but I was wondering what you all know about craigslist......it seems easier to me. I hate ebay, it's a ton of work.......
    Next step is freecycle, and goodwill whats left.

    I say try craigslist first, it's easier and most often the people are local and THEY come to pick up the stuff, if all else fails then try ebay (but you get stuck with all those yucky fees).

    Good Luck!

    If a lot of people in your area use CL, I would definitely try that first. No fees and no shipping hassles. We have had quite a bit of success selling stuff on CL. It is super easy to do. Accept cash only.

    We don't have Craiglist here so I don't know about that. I'd say if you can get atleast $5 -$8 for an item then ebay is good. You also have that chance that you'll list an item that lots of people want and the price will go way up. Good luck. Sounds like you have some nice things and I'm sure you're going to make some money off of them.
