Selling Anime Items?

Kuuhaku <3 May 11, 2017 9:08 pm

Hi Guys. Sorry this question has almost nothing to do with this site. I have anime items I'm trying to sell and I'm not sure what method would be best to get rid of them. I rather not post them on Amazon / eBay, but would that actually be the best method?
I have some posts on twitter and a FB group which have helped a bit, but not much.
Are there any sites you guys use to buy anime stuff from other people?

    Heya,
    Amazon and Ebay are great. Alternatively, you can use Wish, Shopck and Storenvy. There must also be two other sites where you can sell your stuff but it's not on top of my head right now. Also posting in more than one site would increase your possible customers. Best of luck! :)

    Why don't you want to use Amazon or eBay? Do you live in the USA? You could try Craig's List.

    I am not too sure about amazon, but a lot of stuff I see on eBay are bootlegs or fakes of some sort which makes me really not want to list items on their site and support them.
    Yes, I do live in the USA and now that you mention it, I have made postings now and then on craigslist, but its been so useless which made me forget about it ( ̄∇ ̄")

    Have you seen a lot of bootlegs from the USA? Cuz I always get the impression that the bootlegs come from other countries, which are less regulated than here.

    But it's up to you, whatever you are comfortable with! If it was me, I would sell them during my neighborhood's community garage sale. Do you have anything like that? Craig's List can be useful too...just be sure to meet in a public place and stay safe! Good luck!

    That's true....I've been so focused on the fact that the products are fake, I never really paid attention to where the items were from. OTL
    Wonder if there'll be anyone buying from me when I have no transaction history though ^^;
    Don't have community garage sales here =
    Thanks for your advice!

    Do you have buying experience?

    None. Right now would be the first time I am even making an eBay account.

    Sorry for the late reply here, but please be careful if you do that. I don't recommend it. I have a friend who sold her Mary Kay products on eBay, and a lot of people tried to take advantage of her since she was a new user. They would claim that they never received the item in the mail when they actually had, and they would get a refund, because the customer is always right. Which is bullshit. I would hope that wouldn't happen to you, but I just wanted to warn you just in case it could prevent you from getting screwed over!

    It's fine. Thank you for the advice!
    Isn't there tracking on sending first class parcels though?
    Couldn't she show a picture of the site with the package having arrived and have that be proof?
