What’s the most efficient way to sell craft supplies and books?

Posted by admin on March 8th, 2010 and filed under crafts cross stitch | 4 Comments »

I’m ready once and for all to downsize my stash of craft books (mostly knitting, crocheting, cross stitch), magazines, and supplies. I’d like to know how others have succeeded and what they recommend. I’ve had limited success with Amazon, and am now considering Yahoo groups, eBay, blujay, and such. Ideas will be greatly appreciated! Thanks.

There are also some great websites that allow you to trade books, CD’s, DVD’s etc. See my profile for link to titletrader and paperbackswap. This allows you to get rid of an item you no longer want and get something you do want in return. Titletrader is awesome because you can trade books, dvd’s, cd’s, games and vhs tapes. So if you get rid of a book you may be able to get a dvd in exchange. Paperbackswap is only for books. I have found that doing ebay or amazon is pricey cause you don’t really get your money’s worth for these items and you have to pay fees etc.

    I’ve sold piles of that stuff on Ebay. You can group them by subject to save listing fees.

      I sold crafts stuff on Craigslist. I grouped them, and add a photo, the service is free
