Our new Indie Games subforum is now open for business in G&T. Go and check it out, you might land a code for a free game. If you're developing an indie game and want to post about it, follow these directions. If you don't, he'll break your legs! Hahaha! Seriously though.
Our rules have been updated and given their own forum. Go and look at them! They are nice, and there may be new ones that you didn't know about! Hooray for rules! Hooray for The System! Hooray for Conforming!
Selling my stuff (possibly online!)

So I need to help generate a bit more cash until my big move to Toronto this August, and I thought I could part ways with some of my stuff that I won't be needing any longer to help bring in a few extra dollars for some financial cushion. Thing is, I haven't a real clue on a real way to do it successfully! I'm not sure if I should post local ads or do this online via eBay.
One of the things i'd love to sell is one of my guitars, but after checking out craigslist and eBay it seems quite intimidating! I'm not sure where to start haha
I could use any advice on how to start making some dinero! Can anyone help me out?

You could always post an ad on Kijiji. Post a few pictures, say cash/pick up only, and make a good offer.

You could just learn how to check for counterfeit currency. It's not that difficult once you learn. Fakes become hilariously obvious once you know.
With the case i'd love to snag a solid $300 for it
I don't have one of those pens, but (and this is SUPER paranoid) I always just get a good look at the car tag of whoever I sell something to and then take the bills to the wal mart or starbucks and ask to borrow their pen. I feel weird checking the money someone gives me in front of them, and this way if it's bogus I've got their tag and can just call the cops, but in YEARS of selling that's never happened, so it's not like a big problem or worry.
Godfather, we recently sold a guitar and honestly we did just as well taking it to a local second hand music store than we would have done on craigslist. We MIGHT have made an extra $70 or so on craigslist, but it would have taken two weeks of reposting the guitar every day, as guitars move to the bottom of the page fast on cl.

The issue with EBay is that it's a bunch of work, plus you're giving them a cut, plus you put yourself on the hook for all kinds of annoying things....plus you have to use PayPal. I've sold one thing on EBay, and probably will never do it again.
