Things You Didn’t Know You Could Sell on Ebay

#1 Vintage Women’s Panties

Shockingly, these are one of the biggest sellers on eBay. Old underwear and other clothing items are fetching a pretty hefty dollar and the number of available auctions is growing steadily. Before you take all of those old clothes to the thrift store or give them up as a lost cause, be sure to search eBay. Other big sellers are bras, lingerie, retro dresses, and even SOCKS!

#2 Dentures

Oh, I kid you not! People will actually pay you for dentures on eBay, and pay well. If you come across some dentures, maybe you should consider listing them on eBay. If you don't have any dentures themselves, denture supplies will also sell. People are paying for things such as the cases, cleaners, discontinued adhesives, and other supplies. Check out the prices... $245. for old Cushion Grip.

#3 Empty Egg Cartons

Who would have guessed, but empty egg cartons sell easily on eBay. They can be used for a variety of things such as crafts or for people who sell eggs and need cartons. Since they are lightweight and can easily stack inside one another they are fairly easy to ship. And check out what you can earn by selling just a few dozen or so, about $20-25 bucks!

#4 Old Coffee Mugs

The next time you're at a garage sale or rummage sale, don't pass by that old coffee mug with a name on it or unique design. People on Ebay may be looking for exactly that mug to match a collection, or to add to a set. Old Starbucks mugs and Corelle coffee mugs sell great online, and so do those with sports team logos. So don't toss that cupboard full of old mugs away.

#5 My Coke Codes Rewards

If your family is a big soda drinker, but you don't want to use those special promo Coke codes, why not sell them on eBay? You could potentially offer free shipping; you would just need to manually type the codes into a message to the buyer. They don't sell for much, but if you are willing to collect them and bag them all up you can make several sales of up to $10 each at the right time.

#6 Large Pine Cones/Craft Items

Seriously, 10 large pine cones can get you $6. The best thing about this is if you live in the country, near woods, or have pine trees on your property, they're free! Pine cones are fairly light weight which makes them nice choices in regards to shipping. Think about other things you may have around your property or area such as real fall leaves, seashells, polished rocks, or even chestnuts. These items always sell on Ebay, and so do all of your old craft supplies. Partial rolls of yarn, glue, cotton balls, felt, pipe cleaners, paints, they are big sellers at auction.

#7 Broken Electronics/Appliances

This is amazing. You can actually sell junk. And, sometimes it brings in big money. Broken cell phones, laptops, video game systems, blenders, and other items can be sold on eBay for quite a bit of dough. All you need to do is make sure it is clear that the item is NOT working and is intended for parts only. If you have the time and skill, you can take the items apart and sell any part individually and get a bigger payout. Blender parts and gaming systems seem to go for the most money, but a broken air conditioner recently sold for $177.25, which is probably about what the new item cost to start with.

#8 Used Toilet Paper Rolls

Yes, someone out there is willing to pay for your old TP rolls. You weren't planning on using them again anyway so why not sell them? People are using them for craft projects, and who knows what else. A box of 250 (that's a shitload of them!) recently sold for $78.00.

#9 Installation CDs/Drivers

If your printer dies, before tossing out the instructions/CDs, check and see if they have any value on eBay. Check to see if any software you have manuals for may be wanted by someone. If you have an older computer, printer, or copier, it is possible that the drivers you need to install haven't been put on the web. You can sell these old discs on eBay for some cash. Some computer repair shops actually pay a pretty good amount for these old driver discs, and many enthusiasts are looking for older, vintage software applications on disc.

#10 Remotes

Do you have a drawer full of remotes you have no idea what they work with? Sell them on Ebay. When our televisions break and we replace them, the remotes may still work. Rather than tossing the remotes out with the TV, check and see if they have any value on eBay. For every TV that dies, there may be someone out there who broke their remote. These old things can sell from $10-25.00.

#11 Instruction Manuals

Nowadays most instruction manuals can be found online. However, vintage manuals or even just older manuals may not be available and can earn you a little extra cash. Shipping is fairly easy and inexpensive. These can often be sold so if you no longer even have that item the manual corresponds to, why not make some spending money off it!

#12 Boxtops for Education

Just look what people are willing to pay for these. You get them free and can sell them. Some schools offer competitions and prizes to classes that collect the most, so parents are looking for cheap ways to get these codes. It's wonderful if you choose to donate these codes to one of your local schools, but if you find yourself just throwing them out, maybe you'd be more tempted to clip them if you could earn some cash for them. It takes a little time to collect them and cut them out but it seems well worth the effort if you can get enough of them.

#13 Cords

We all have a junk drawer or box full of these by now. Old phone chargers (even your ANCIENT ones), power cords to video game systems, computers, USB cords, camera cords, etc. will often sell on Ebay. These don't sell for a lot of money but why throw out even $5 bucks? Someone may be looking for the same cord you have tangled up in that drawer.

#14 Empty Boxes

Yes, believe it or not, there is a huge market out there for EMPTY boxes. Get a new phone, or toy? Don't throw out the box it came in, someone may be looking to pay you big money for that piece of cardboard. People are buying doll boxes, empty phone boxes, shoe boxes, and more. The reason why these are so popular? You can buy a used item and place it in a brand new box and gift it as a new purchase.

#15 Discontinued Products

Chances are when an item gets discontinued, there is someone out there still using the items or who are looking for the parts. Be sure to check it out on eBay before you toss the item in your yard sale. Coconut M&M's are selling for CRAZY prices on Ebay right now! Start looking for older toys, discontinued items, and expired things at your local dollar store or clearance isle. Hold it for a little bit and then put it up for auction. People out there are still looking for some of these discontinued items, even FOOD.
