Hello everyone,

I have a lot of neo-classic star wars figures in boxes (~80 'Power of the Force') that I want to get rid of and was wondering if anyone could suggest a good site to try and sell them, other than ebay...like macrumors but geared more generally or specifically to star wars collectibles and toys.

Of course, then I would be a newbie and three thousand people would reply telling me how no one would ever buy from a newbie on THEIR site.

Thanks.

Fees, annoyance of dealing with an auction, in general distaste for the system. It's always an option, I was just looking for alternatives.

I will try craigslist...

Any other ideas? Is macrumors unique or is my collection a hard sell?

I'll second craigslist. I think you will probably sell it if you post it there.

Also, try a Google search for Star Wars collectibles sites, you might come across one that has a forum for member sales.

know of any trading places around Montreal, QC? or Toronto?

I live in Montreal for school, and Toronto isn't that far from my home town... and shipping prices are unbelievable

The other 2 marketplaces I look at are at:

MacNN (http://forums.macnn.com/forumdisplay.php?&forumid=59)
AppleFritter (http://www.applefritter.com/forum/107)

Craigslist has excellent things at great prices, but if you are far from a big city you usually cannot convince people to ship. I have tried about 10 times and was shot down all 10. I am always looking for more places to buy so if there are any other, post them.
