I've recently moved house, and have a bit less space as the office is now a box room rather than a spare bedroom, so I've got looooads of stuff I need to get rid of.

I've tried putting up Price Check threads before but they never seem to get any sort of answer, so never sure what stuffs worth.

eBay tends to have messers on it, FB marketplace is all lowballers...


Where is everyone else finding prices for stuff, or, selling stuff if its not on here?
Obviously I'd rather sell on here due to the trust thing and there's significantly less chance of all the messing about, but some of the bits I've got to get rid of aren't exactly the kinda thing that would go on here..


Thoughts?
 
The majority of it is PC stuff, m.2 SSD's, USB SSD's, NVME SSD's, DDR4 SODIMMS, DDR5-SODIMMS, DDR5, 2.5" Spinners, 3.5" Spinners, switches, FireTV sticks, old laptops, general parts, you know just general stuff that you 'collect' over the years and then when you move, you throw a load of stuff away, give a load more stuff away and then still have boxes of stuff you really should get rid of...

Price of DDR 5 has rocketed, not sure if you're aware that? I'd be interested in it depending on what it is, which makes me wonder why I've just told you its value has gone up :D
 
Check sold prices on ebay, see what you can get trading it in instore at the preowned place. Decide on a number, stick it on here or other forums you're on. Accept offers that are reasonable :)

Desktop RAM has gone up 3-400%, so price these carefully...

The rest of it I would stick on eBay, Buy-It-Now, immediate payment required.

I am aware the prices have gone up, that's kinda another thing that's prompted me to move some of this stuff on, I am also aware that selling it on here, I'll probably get less than I would selling it elsewhere, but, me being me I'd rather sell it to someone from here that will get use out of it, and not have all the normal FB marketplace/eBay lowball 'tards and chancers playing games...

I'm gonna end up creating a list on here, rough prices, and then just add stuff to the list as I go arent I...

Anyone wanna just rock up to mine with £3k and do all the hard work part :D

Would you consider donating any of it to charity?

Many charity shops accept clothes.
Oxfam will aslo accept books and toys/games
for larger items like furniture, there are often local charities that will colllect

I've already sent a load of stuff to the RCM, binned a load, but still have a shameful amount of stuff left, some of the clothing and other bits has gone to the local charity shops, I'm kinda down to primarily 'IT' related stuff now..

Fair enough, but if it is IT related - why is it not suitable for selling here?
 
If you don't know a price just put a price you're happy to let it go for. Why worry about missing out on a bit of dosh, it sounds like you can't be bothered to research each item to get an exact price (I say that because I assume your time is just worth more than Micromanaging each items price).

Worst case you've put it too low but get a quick sale. If you've put anything too high a price people will make offers, and you can price drop.

Stick it up whatever you're happy with and enjoy your free time
 
If you wanted to shift some of it and aren't bothered about money or its not going to worth the hassle,
then you might donate it to a computer shop. I have not done this myself but someone else suggested it on OcUK.
You could chuck all the bits your not too fussed about into box and take it to them to see if a shop will take it off your hands for free.
