I know this isn't an AIBU but this board gets most of the traffic sooo......

I need to to sell some stuff really, really quickly, preferably for cash.

It's stuff like a toddler race car bed, good quality kids clothes, possibly some furniture but only if I get really desperate!

Ebay takes time and money for listing and I cant be bothered with it anymore.
I deleted my facebook but could use my Dad's for FB marketplace? Gumtree??

The toddler bed is in really good nick, it's one of those ones with the light up headlights that are £250 on Amazon, just no mattress and who would want a manky mattress when you can buy a new one for £20 off Amazon anyway?!)

I would have normally given this this stuff away but I am literally desperate for money right now.

Who's had success with selling things quick, and what did you use?

Thank you!

(For context my ex has massively fucked me over and I need money asap because beneifits are taking a while!)

I always have a lot of success with Facebook marketplace & find things go quickly.

Good luck. Sorry you’re in a tough position.

Facebook marketplace but you need to price it realistically. Second hand furniture and clothes doesn’t have loads of resale value unfortunately

I agree with this. If you price them right they will sell quickly there.

Marketplace but if you need the cash fast do say first to collect can have it. You don’t want to list something tonight and they say they will come on Sunday and then don’t turn up.

Marketplace is what I was thinking, so thanks for the suggestions!

I just checked amazon and the bed we bought for £250 is now £370!!
If I get it loaded up now hope fully I can sell it ASAP.

Yeah he's fucked me over good and proper, I'm going to start a thread on that tomorrow but I'm so so fucking angry right now it'll just be a bunch of swear words!
