weigh it and go to post office website where it will tell you how much postage is.

add on cost of packaging and you have your postage costs.

search for similar items on ebay to see how much they went for.

well there's one with 6 games ending in 2 mins and it's at £38 plus £10 postage.

It is best to start the auction low to get more people interested. Why don't you start bidding at £25, hoping to get about £50? You can set a reserve if you don't want to risk selling it at a low price.

I am constantly amazed at how much stuff goes for on ebay. I just sold a kid's coat for £7 plus £2.50 p and p - I was going to charity shop it!

ok, that one just ended at £49 plus post.
You might get more if you sell it in time for Christmas - someone might buy it as a present.

I use www.parcel2go.com for my couriers. Can always collect the next day and a 48hr delivery has never been late for me and i've used them over 50 times now!! It costs £8 ish for that service plus your packing.
