Best way of buying and selling 2nd hand tents?

We have decided to sell our massive family tent and replace with a smaller one for DH and I, and each teenager wants their own small pop up tent. We don't do week/fortnight at a time camping any more, but once lockdown is lifted we will have weekends here and there, so we want to be able to set up and pack away really quickly.

Does anyone have experience selling tents, my first thought was ebay but I may be out of date, e.g. is gumtree better, or some other way?

Local FB selling pages are good.

I bought my most recent tent on eBay. It was in immaculate condition.

I would put it up and take photos, if you can find a link to a video showing how to put it up then try Facebook market place as its free, Ebay takes a big chunk of the sale in fees. We have found better results if you offer to deliver as some people have no transport, we sold our old caravan to some one with no car it was free delivery that clinched the deal!

We sold one on Facebook marketplace, we pitched it in our garden then posted it for sale. We advertised that it was up for the day so people could come and view it actually up and see it working.

We sold it one hour from putting the advert up!
