Where to sell Designer Presentation Boxes

Hope someone can help me here..

First of all iam not a trader- lets get that out of the way!

I have had a huge clear out and im trying to sell the following items:

9x Louis Vuitton Presentation Boxes
2x D&G Presentation Boxes
1X Prada Box
2x Buberry Presentation Box

They are the boxes that handbags, washbags, wallets etc etc came in when I bought them.
They are really nice and i use others to store watches and my OH stores her jewellery and trinkets in.

I have tried ebay and they reject them, even though similar items are being sold on there(trademark infringement)
I had them on for an hour and received 4/5 bids on each one- so they are obviously worth something to someone

However, Im not someone that sells items other than on Ebay and would appreciate help in where else is good to sell items.

Ive looked at Amazon but the selling fees are high


To stress , iam NOT a trader, just someone trying to raise a bit of extra ££ for xmas so any help at all would be really apreciated.

Thanks

EDIT- i posted this in the up your income then realised this would be more suitable forum- delete request sent

    You can't really sell these without the original items - most sites don't like designer packaging materials being sold (e.g. also dust-bags that come with handbags) because they could easily be bought by people trying to pass off counterfeit goods as real. Yours were reported, so you shouldn't relist them. Others may well find their listings in jeopardy too.

    You won't get the same exposure but you might try Gumtree or the small ads

    I'd still be wary of who might buy them, though.

    I'd also make sure in any site you use that it is not against their policy to list them as well.

    If you've been pulled from one site, you may find them not too easy to sell elsewhere.

    I have managed to sell one thing on Gumtree, but it was a real struggle.

    Im not bothered what someone does with them once they have paid! like i say im trying to raise some ££ for xmas so its not my concern!

    Well put it on Gumtree then as you can't really lose. It is a face to face venue so ignore anyone wanting things shipped, if they can't come and collect just refuse them.
