Default Selling stuff?
I'm a bit clueless about the whole thing. I have stuff I want to sell-DVD's,CD's,old magazines and so on and I have no idea how to. I'm not even sure I can use eBay without a credit card and that place seems dead anyways. So any other suggestions?

You'll sell things quicker on Ebay than on Amazon (unless you sell it as a 'Buy it Now' item). Plus people are more reliable on Ebay in my experience.

If all else fails, try Cash Converter or any pawn shop. They can rip people off a bit, but it's better than nothing.

you should value up the stuff you sell first so you got a rough idea how much it's worth.

it'd be horrible to sell a CD/DVD/mag or something then find out it was worth a lot more.

I hate selling DVD's and CD's, I'm never happy for what someone pays for it. And then there's the post and packaging. Eugh. Waste of time for me.

Do you have a debit card? You can use that on ebay.
