Depending on what you're selling, Ebay is a good option... my brother does a ton of buying and selling of musical stuff there...

Ditto. Probably won't get what you want out of it unless its something uber nice though.

CL or Ebay would be your best chances to get a good price. CL removes the hassle of having to ship, plus most CL buyers will come to you and pay cash. Be aware of scammers and spammers. Ask responders to include a ph# in the initial email. I would avoid anyone who wants you to ship, there should be local buyers for anything of worth.

You can also get an idea of what your items are worth by searching on CL or review sites like Harmony Central. If you post what you're selling (including exact model, year, and condition), I may be able to help you with a realistic asking price.

You can also sell used musical equipment and instruments to music shops like Music-Go-Round, or places similar to that.

Craigslist.

One key to pass on is that it's best to post on craigslist on Friday afternoon. Paychecks and such lead to looking on Friday through Sunday. Best time to get bites.

NUTS addressed those queries in the original post. It struck me as funny.

Yes. When using Craigslist, be aware of scammers and spammers ...

Oh, and rapists and serial killers!
