Besides listing here, of course , what are the best places to list used curriculum in a NON-auction format. I just sold my Sonlight 300 on Ebay, and I remembered all the reasons I dislike using Ebay.

So - I know about VegSource.

And for Catholic stuff? The Cathswap list is closed, and I know there was a few that popped up in its place. Anyone know which are good?

I just realized I have TON of stuff that I really, really don't need (although I like having it. How silly. So much I never even used, so it is brand new, and I would love to just be able to give it away but we spent so much $$ on these things . So I have to try and make a bit back....sigh....)

Cathswap isn't closed- it just moved: http://cathswap.heavenforum.com/

Hope this helps

I like Amazon - they charge a fee - but you get to see what other people are charging and can base your price on that. No haggling - people either buy it or they don't. No time wasted going back and forth on a price, or waiting for a payment. It is really easy.

Cathswap is good esp for Catholic curriculum. But, it takes more time than Amazon.

Ebay - if you have something that is worth more than the usual stuff - I don't usually find any good curriculum there, so I don't think about selling it there.

ug. I can't stand CathSwap since they switched. And normally I really hate yahoo groups and much prefer a message board. It's very time consuming and WAY too divided up to be very user friendly. And I think it shows in how slow the traffic is there compared to what it used to be.

Just saying.

The HSLDA has a site for used curricula, but it is not strictly Catholic.

Do you have to be an HSLDA member to use it?

I third the recommendation for Amazon. The no-hassle just really really works for me.
