Craigslist?

I listed some items over there, because I don't really know of anyplace else to list them without sorting, taking pics, and spending LOTS of time selling them. None of them were something that would sell on GB.com.
I have listed:
A pair of rare, Internantional Harvestor Company tractor dealership lamps.

A large collection of baseball/football/hockey/basketball/desert storm cards.

Magic the gathering cards (I know geeky, but I used to play the game) in a fair size collection.

Is there someplace else I could list them that won't require lots of time and effort to get them up for sale?

Thanks for the help.

P.S. the card collections will be sold in sport/MTG all in one groups. I am NOT going to sort through them all. I have a good idea what they are worth, and am willing to sell them at a FAIR price. I am not going to ask FULL market value. And NO, this is NOT an ad. I am JUST looking for help finding someplace to sell them.

    try your local newspaper. People will most likely want to see the cards before purchasing them. I would keep the lamps, you never know when a good buy on a Dealership might come your way

    Even with Craigs list I would at least add a photo, there is an option to search only with images and I believe the majority of users need some sort of visual stimulation.


    Just my opinion.

    I will get my camera hooked up tomorrow and take some pics if you guys want to see what they look like.
    IF there is someone here intersted in purchasing them them in a buy it now type auction on GB, I would set up an auction for them.

    If I get the pics taken tomorrow, can someone post them for me?

    I'd do one of those surprise auctions...or whatever they're called,
    over on ebay.

    It's crazy. They give a few hints (sometimes) on what might
    be in a box..and they sometimes get rediculous prices for who knows
    what.

    I've seen different spins on them like "I'll add an item every day
    until the auction ends, etc. Might be worth looking into...

    Call my brother if you want to sell the "Magic the gathering" cards. He has 500,000 of them in his garage. He thinks they are worth a dollar a piece. In his dreams!

    Could you be?
    It'd make it so much more worthwhile.

    Find a web site devoted to old tractors.

    I'm sure there are several of these old tractor-buff web sites.

    Most of them probably have forums or classified "wanted" and "for sale" features.

    List your tractor stuff there.

    Also, find web sites devoted to your other specialty stuff and find interested people there.
