Well, if you're looking to make a profit you've come to the wrong place. People generally come here to trade stuff they don't want to get stuff other people have that they want. If that's you then this is the site for you. If you're looking to sell the stuff at a profit, then I don't know what to tell you. You can try eBay, but unless the stuff is BRAND new or it's painted to phenomenal levels I wouldn't expect to make back what you paid for it.

Sorry I can't be more encouraging.

*edited to add* I just looked at your ad. I see that trade is an option. I also see that the things you are trying to sell/trade are not new. You need pictures. Most people won't buy/trade for things unless they either know what the stuff looks like or you're selling it for about a dollar.

That's all well and good but, like HZ said, don't expect to make a PROFIT.

If it's in MIB (Mint in Blister/Box) or NOS (New On Sprue) condition, you'll probably get 80% of retail, tops.
