7.2.07 What small DFW/MSE thing will you do/have you done today?

I don't want to start a new thread, but was hoping you may help me with selling some items as I've not had much luck.
I have
- A 17" CRT computer monitor. Wanting to sell for £10
- About 6 old Windows NT/Windows 2000 books, will sell all for £10 (cost over £150 but got them free)
- 1 Electronic engineering book - will sell for £5 (cost £25)
- 1 Linux Hardware/pc book - will sell for £5 (cost £40 - got free)
I've tried selling them on https://www.adtrader.co.uk which also print your advert in their paper too. I've tried twice but with no luck.
I think they should be easy to sell, as they are great prices, just want to get rid of them and made a little money.
Any ideas? I was thinking of Ebay, and hoping someone in my area will look but not sure.
Thanks!
Oh, and maybe a NSD, however I think I may need to get some screenwash for my car.Amo L'Italia0 -

Took lunch to work, paid an ebay cheque into the bank, mmm struggling here! Had a quiet day, was a bit non MSE and broke into a £5 note to buy a coffee (50p at the swimming baths), when I had planned NSD - got a £2 coin in the change which has to go in the pot - so I suppose that serves me right!Proud to be dealing with my debts
