Should bother listing these?

Im going to have my massive summer clearout today, ive got quiet a few summer and winter clothes to go on ebay along with some other odds and sods.

I recently bought a new MP3 player and my old one is still in full working condition has 8GB of memory and i have the box etc, it looks pretty much brand new as im one of these people who keeps my MP3 in a silcone case so theres no markings or scrates to the casing or screen. is it worth me listing this?

I have also recently upgraded my phone and my old phone is still in full working coondition but as you can expect externally its got some markings and some of the colouring to the back has faded - it basically looks like a 12 month old phone but still works fine and i have the box and all the accessorizes. i would obv take lots of pics etc. Is it worth me listing this? do used phones sell on ebay?

Im just worried that i may open my self up to a lot of scammers by listing these two items and the last thing i want or need is the hassle of some ebay scam or ackwarded buyer who doesnt read the listing.

Summer clothes, may be too late to list them now, temperatures are already dropping. Winter clothes will sell best from September onwards, as people realise their old coats etc don't fit anymore and need new stuff.

Gadgets and stuff sell all year round. Just make sure you keep records of the serial numbers (and IMEI numbers for phones).

As long as you set your seller preferences tight enough (Dont sell outside the uk, that gets rid of the majority of scammers). Make sure your listing is thorough and insure that the items are sent by the appropriate methods. There should be fewproblems,

As foe awkward buyers you can get those no matter what you sell. 99% of buyers are fine pleasant and trouble free

If it just going to sit in a drawer doing nothing then yes, it is worth putting it on ebay.

Like someone said above though, keep records of serial nos., etc. just in case someone tries to shaft you.
