A question about : Alternatives to Ebay and Gumtree for selling things

We are now both unemployed and want to get rid of stuff that is no use to us ASAP.
We have tried Ebay and Gumtree but the phone hasn't even rung, and the bids have been really low.
Is there a place where you can have your own website selling things, or would we be better to do boot fairs?
I only ask this as one of my wife's former colleagues apparently had her own website where she was selling things.

A question about : Refund on faulty item bought on Ebay

Hi
I bought a towel radiator at the end of November on ebay (paid through Paypal) for our bathroom refit. It was advertised as new but not in original packaging. Upon delivery, I checked it and it looked okay to me.

A question about : Paypal Account Limited

Hello Everyone,

I recently paid two sellers who were retailing the Samsung Galaxy S5. One was selling it for Ј230 and the other for Ј170.

I opened disputes against both sellers on Paypal and escalated the disputes as the handsets did not arrive. My Paypal account is now limited as I opened two disputes and escalated them and I have also lost both escalated claims. So essentially, two scammers have Ј400 of my money now.

A question about : Non-performing seller

Hi,
I won a pair of designer for a ridiculously low price.
They are Ј249 and I won them for Ј26 plus postage.
I had a feeling the seller would have been peed off with such a low-selling price.
Yo and behold, today I got a message from him saying he got the size wrong and they aren't a size 39 but in fact a size 36 so he'll refund my money.
My best friend is a size 36 so I sent back a message telling him so and asking him to still send them to me.
