Holiday season perfect time to sell or donate items

Does your son have a Thomas Train set he ignores? Is your daughter's
Radio Flyer wagon gathering dust in the garage? Are you storing golf
clubs you never use? Do you have a formal gown you wore once and don't
plan to wear again?

All of these lightly used items --- and thousands of others --- are in
high demand on Craigslist and eBay right now. Buyers are looking to
save a few dollars, and sellers are hoping to make a little money.
With the economy sloshing around in stagnant water, there is increased
activity on resale sites during the holiday season.

If you're interested in selling your things on Craigslist [1] or eBay
[2], I highly recommend checking out the extremely thorough article
"Sell It Now --- how to make hundreds of dollars in 37 minutes [3]" by
Ramit Sethi. The article is targeted toward eBay, but works just as
well for Craigslist. It's especially helpful if you haven't ever sold
anything on a site like this.

If you aren't interested in taking the time and energy to sell your
lightly used items, now is also a great time to donate them to
charity. Remember, charities aren't dumping grounds for used stuff, so
only consider donating goods that are still in excellent condition.
Also, give your local charity a call before making a donation to
confirm they have a need for your specific items.
