Best way to sell household goods? (moving from UK)? I'm moving from the UK and have a number of items to sell: from household electronics to books to DVDs to a car. What's the best way to list multiple items for sale since I don't have the time to take things to a car boot sale? I should have said that I know how to sell on Ebay & Amazon, but it just takes too long to list the things I want to sell - like 100s of Region 2 DVDs, books, etc. Granted they are good services for large items (furniture, etc).
