    Hi tishybabe

    You could register on netmums.com - they have for sale / wanted ads for the various areas in the UK, you just need to join your local site (or in my case sites;) ).

    good luck

    If you could really only think of ebay, then so can the majority of people likely to buy your items. It's a Catch 22 situation.

    Before ebay came along, people managed to buy and sell things.

    OP should consider local paper classifieds.

    Thank you all for your suggestions. I'll try and have a look at which website seems to have the best traffic.

    I have nothing against ebay but I just want to sell my stuff at a price. The problem with ebay is that you have to pay to list the item, if you want a Fixed Price, you have to pay again, then there the commission that you pay them and Paypal.

    I thought about the local paper but I have too many items to sell and it will cost me a fortune, it's about £17 for 15 words and 15 words wouldn't be anywhere near enough.

    I'll try one of these site as it won't cost me nothing and if it doesn't work I might go back to ebay.
