I was planning to start a T-shirt business, so I bought a whole lot of heat press transfers (pre-designed). My plan has changed, and I don't know what to do with them. I'm planning to sell them at a very low price to get some of my money back. Where should I sell these transfers? They are brand new.
Thanks.
Are they customizable at all, or are they set designs? I know some people that may be interested if it is at all customizable. Please describe them further or post a photo/link.
The obvious choices are craigslist.org, ebay.com, and there are now facebook groups where you can buy, sell, trade.
Sell them on eBay as a lot. Start with a low price to get people interested. I'll bet someone buys.
ebay or itsy
I believe listing on eBay would bring you more money but it may not be an "overnight" sale.
Here are some examples of how sellers are listing large quantities.

My wife, who passed away five years ago, spent many years in a craft business that involved painting and selling pecan shell resin figurines. She made many acquisitions of unpainted figurines from individuals and from the companies that were going out of business. The inventory numbers in the hundreds. I am looking for an outlet for these items, as I am relocating and have no room nor desire to keep them. How can I get rid of this inventory?

Give them to a church
I would try ebay that would in my opinion be your best bet. Sell them in lots of like five to ten the unpainted ones that is.
Before trying to sell them on Ebay, I'd do some internet searching for people who are in the same business your late wife was. It seems to me they'd be the prime market for the inventory.
Donate them to a senior citizen center, or a nursing home. This would be great "fellowship" items. Good luck.
Try posting the items on Craigslist, first. Be as detailed as you can and take pictures of the items, if you can. Craigslist.com doesn't cost anything and there is a local Craigslist for the Tampa Bay area.
If you don't have to sell right away, go to your public library's reference section and see what magazines deal with the type of novelties/collectibles she made or, if you have sales receipts from people she sold to in quantity you could contact them. My thought with the mags. is that you could run a classified. Another poster referenced Craigslist. A good site but be careful about personal information, few people are not what they seem, but you don't want to be caught by one who doesn't want to treat you right. Best of luck!
Another good, free selling site is Kijiji (pronounced Key-gee-gee." Haven't managed to sell anything there, but hubby found an excellent dog there a couple of years ago. As I recall, they also have a craft/collectible section. go to www.kijiji.com and see what you think.

I am currently clearing my mother's property. Due to dementia she has accumulated a great deal of craft magazines, most are un-opened in the cellophane wrapping with kits, etc.
included. I am looking to sell them to raise funds for her continued care. Any suggestions would be appreciated.I would sell them as a lot on eBay or Craigslist. There are people who would be interested in them.
I have tons of craft materials (new) like ribbons, mini figures, small wood pieces, etc. and craft magazines that I would like to sell. Does anyone know how to go about selling these things? Thank you!
Find someone who has a digital camera and who knows how to sell on EBay. Ask them to photo, list and sell your items.
Hi Casey,
I am in Plano, Texas too! What a small world. But one way to sell your craft items is on www.craigslist.com
That's a source for all kinds of things from jobs to, real estate to jogging partners.
Good luck,

I'm going to clear bag all of mine, set them out two days early on the curb and allow someone to have them for free. "Freely you have been given, so freely give." "It's better to give than to receive."
You will most definitely get a blessing for doing this, especially now that so many are confined to their homes with elders and/or children during the Winter.
Thanks for your ideas! Grammy Sheila, what is an MSN group and how do I contact them? I would love to sell my things to people who can really use them (many items are hard to find!).
I sell my craft supplies on Etsy.com and have done very well.
I have a huge amount of crafts supplies for all holidays and occasions. I am moving out of state, and can not pack all of it. Any idea how to sell it/post it for sale?
My mother recently passed away and she was a crafter. Does anyone know where I can sell her unused fabric? She has so much of it and I would love for someone to buy it.
