I'm looking to sell Various items, everything from small electronics to a Dirtbike, and a Few Tv's, i think there is over 100 items

What do you guys think is the best way to get this up and posted with out having to make a new FS post/Thread/Submission for every item, and get the most exposure?

Ill be posting up a comprehensive list here on beyond, but I am curious if there is another way?

Thanks for the input Beyond. :thumbsup:

Kijiji.

You could also look at ebay/Amazon marketplace.

This makes me think of a slightly related question;

How would you ship something like a motorcycle if someone was to buy it on eBay? Do eBay buyers pay for shipping for big items like that without even looking at the item?

Posting my things one by one on those sites is what I am trying to avoid.
I realized that I wasn't clear in my OP, that I have about 100 or so things I'd like to get out and up for sale.

thanks for the suggestion though.

U-ship is what most people refer to know a days, but anything bigger than a pocket bike or small fridge would be freight. I know you can use Purolator, DHL, Canpar to ship larger items, but they need to be able to fit in a box or be crated up with a pallet on the bottom for them to accept it.
Also anything going across the border is $500-1000 more just because it crossing a line.

Hmm. One time, a friend of mine had an estate auction guy come buy and toss him a price for the lot. It was a bit low, but it was all at once and a done deal.

You could also pay someone to put up the ads. Get someone offshore for $10 for sure.

Sugarphreak seemed to have success dumping a lot of stuff at once by listing everything and having a garage sale last year:

Post on here and Kjiji, Craigslist, and whatever those other similar sites that have popped up recently are.

Posting multiple ads is crazy easy with the kijiji app. I think running a fiver process to find someone to do it, and then checking thier accuracy, would be much harder, even if you had a hundred items.
