[QUOTE="n0000, post: 949558, member: 3874"] I would go on craigslist and look for price differentials between that and ebay or amazon. It really depends on your area though. You should try selling items in all different categories to get a feel for it. How I approached it was I looked at what I was selling that would make me the highest hourly rate and try to do more of that.
