Depending on your goods you could look at setting up a Facebook selling page. The only other real alternative to eBay is amazon, but their fees are higher than eBay.
If you are just a casual seller with stuff to sell, then maybe a car boot?I’m a Forum Ambassador and I support the Forum Team on the eBay, Auctions, Car Boot & Jumble Sales, Boost Your Income, Praise, Vents & Warnings, Overseas Holidays & Travel Planning , UK Holidays, Days Out & Entertainments boards.

I like preloved - free listings and no sellers fees! I managed to get a sofa off there when I moved into my own place
I've seen a few things on there, never sold anything myself though 0 -
