Tips for Selling Unwanted Items
Check they are in good working order – it’s your legal obligation. Good places to advertise cheaply are newsagents, local paper, websites, supermarkets, community centres, in your own apartment block, or among your friends, neighbours and colleagues. Chances are, someone will need the item and snap it up
Don’t forget options like eBay, jumble sales, and boot fairs too – you might even find items you need going cheap!
