My dh and I used to be big ebayers. We sold and bought. We still buy from there, but have found Craig's list really effective in selling our unwanted stuff. It is free to use is one of the big reasons. The downfall is you can get a lot of people stating they'll buy something and then never show up. It's nice though that you can deal locally. It's a great place to go when looking for furnature or larger sized items that would be too costly to ship.
