Where to sell phone cards???

Hi all. Does anyone have any idea where I could sell some old phone cards that I have? I used to work for Mercury Communications and have a few limited editions, so thought perhaps I could make a few extra pennies by selling them.

Could do the eBay thing, I guess, but wondered if anyone knew of any specialised collectors selling sites?

Any ideas, gratefully received :)

    The market has really collapsed in the last few years, and those with 'Mint' full value cards were badly burnt as the monetary value evaporated. Even BT will not reimburse sealed/wrapped cards, which would be a greater cost than the collectors valuation.

    Theres still a market on ebay for the rarer cards, and mercury cards were at least a bit more desirable. They're still selling just about.
    I'd recommend taking advantage of the free listing weekends were having at the moment.
