What can I do with these greeting cards?

I've got some really beautiful quality greetings cards that I want to sell for charity but I'm not sure how to do it. From what I've seen they go for peanuts on ebay so I don't want to sell them there. I don't want to donate them to a charity shop because last time I did that the charity shop ended up binning them (!!!) and as these cards would cost about £1:50-£2:50 in shops I really don't want that to happen. Can't sell them at work or through work either, not allowed.

Any ideas what I can do?

    You could try taking them to a local hospice or care centre and seeing if they sell there?
    for more info check out www.consumeractiongroup.co.uk . You'll find me there.

    yes, I realise I may appear cold and heartless a lot of the time.
  • Are these cards hand/home made? If so,does your area ever have Craft fairs? You could book a table for a smallish amount and sell there. Depends really on cost and how much profit you think you might make after paying your fee. Usually indoors, so better than risking the weather at a Carboot sale.

    Good Luck:beer:
