    Question Help- I need advice on advertising

    Hi everyone

    I need your help! I have been trying to advertise my dinner table and tv but havent had much luck getting buyers who aren't family (I refuse to sell to family as they never actually pay us lol) and I seem to get weirdos calling when I advertise -so my question is

    QQQQ Where would you look if you wanted to buy a dining table or tv second hand ??? QQQQ

    My options are ATM: ebay, monkeyundies, trading post, community boards....okay I'm out of ideas already.

    Please help as I have already bought furniture and my husband is going to freak when I tell him, I still havent sold the furniture..... stupid me

    Thanks for ur advice
    Kirsty

    I'd go for the Trading Post option!

    Hey there.

    Not long ago I bought an outdoor table and chairs for my dad off ebay. I had no problems with the buyer and there were quite a few bids on the item. You could perhaps have a look at ebay for similiar items that you have so you have some idea of what people are willing to pay for them and what people are selling etc. Of course you would make it pick up only.

    The only other option I have used once before is the trading post.

    Good luck and I hope you manage to sell the furniture before hubby gets too cranky!!
