Best place to sell a tissot watch?

I have a fairly new tissot kinetic automatic watch. Cost £500ish. Does anyone know the best avenue to sell a watch like this to maximise the sale value? Would rather not lose 12.5% to ebay if I can avoid!

    Facebook Marketplace is a good place to start as there are no fees if your buyer would collect and if you decide to post it then you only have to pay PayPal fees.

    If you do decide to sell on eBay I suggest wait until eBay offers you the promotion for fees so you don't end up paying full fees for the sale.

    Ahh I haven't looked into marketplace before. And good idea re eBay, I'll have to keep an eye on that. What can the final fee charge go down to during their promotions typically?

    I should add I'm willing to travel to merchants in or around London. Just don't know where to start!

    They lately had all kind of different Promotions, including a Max £3 Fee and a 80% off in Selling Fees.
    For a 500+ sale that would be a serious reduction in fees.

    The best offer to use for anything over £150 is the £3 FVF. 2nd best is 2% FVF
