I have a lot of kitchen items such as cookware, glasses, electronics and other things around my home I no longer have use for and looking for a way to get rid of them. Since my husband passed away these items are no longer used. Don’t want to just throw them out, but maybe selling them to others who can use the items. Was looking at eBay when I came across this site. And from what I read so far, this sounds better.

Hi and welcome to Bonanza,
Yes, you can absolutely sell used items here. I just did a quick check and there are over 20,000 used kitchen items available at the moment.

I was going to peek at what you had in your booth but got this message….
Whoops. There was an error.
You do not have permission to access the booth requested. If this is your own booth and it hasn’t been activated, you must be logged in to view it.
Perhaps a problem or you dont have anything listed (yet).
Just be aware that ship costs can make or break a sale and if your items are heavy or fragile where you need to double box them to protect against breakage, that adds weight and that is costly. Also, many of your items you think are worth money (because you paid good money to buy them initially for your own use) could be had for much cheaper costs at Goodwill or thrift shops in the neighborhood.
After I went to a local Goodwill store and saw how cheap some of the used kitchen items were there, I decided not to even bother listing them from my moms estate unless they were VERY unusual as it was not worth the time and effort after shipping costs raise the stakes on selling at any sort of positive money after fees. Most of my moms stuff went to Goodwill for a tax deduction.
Perhaps try a few things here but dont go hog wild by getting into the expensive advertising options offered here until you see how things go for you. As Xmas approaches, that is prime shopping season, even for used item.
Good Luck.
