Lego - selling brand new in box sets

I have accumulated a good number of Lego sets over the years that for one reason or another haven't been gifted and are just taking up space. I am not looking to make a profit and just want to sell them on so can't be bothered with the faff of eBay and posting individual items. Other than Gumtree (where I have posted for collection only) does anyone know of any specialist sites/buyers where I can offload to easily?

Meant to add, I am not on Facebook so won't be posting them for sale there either

I'd really suggest searching for the numbers on ebay, because some rare sets go for thousands.

Or if there's nothing hugely special, you could put them all on as a job lot - just make sure there's a photo of each one and the set numbers appear in the listing. Even some of the mini figures are worth tens of pounds each.

Thank you, yes, have had a look this morning to give me a 'guide price' to know what I am looking for. Just not sure if there is a 'market' for an expensive job lot of Lego because I can imagine people are looking for smaller bargain gifts

You could try shpock. People will pay for postage on there too.

Thanks, I will take a look, but not too keen on having to post individual items as there are many and I don't want to go out and buy packaging material especially

Most of the sets you should get what they sold for originally in some cases more (Harry Potter, Star Wars).
I'd put them on eBay as a job lot and collection only if you don't want to sell them individually.
If there's a set in there worth a lot, the buyer will pay over the odds and take the rest just to get that set.

Some people even buy sets just for the minifigures, take the minifigures out and re-sell the rest.

Depending on where you are, this might work
