Trading Assistant in Boystown area of Omaha

[paulploof2012]

I have some computer and electronic items I would like help selling.  Some of the items are heavy and will bring a price of $100 or more. I do not have transportation available.

Thanks for your interest.

     Not exactly sure what you mean by "trading assistant" but if you are looking for somebody to basically consign you items to and have them use their account to create and post the listings and then cover their expenses like shipping, packing materials and Federal and State taxes along with taking the risk for NAD's, returns....... then you may have a difficult time finding anyone willing to do this for less than 50+% of the net revenue. 

     It could also take a LONG time to sell the items in addition to the seller holding your funds for a given amount of time to cover any returns, NAD's or chargebacks. Not sure what the computer and electronic items are but they are one of the favorite targets of the scammers and if the items are heavy there is the potential for significant shipping cost. 

     You may be better off finding a consignment auction house or estate sale company to sell the items or see if you can sell them yourself locally using CL or FB.

As for finding someone to help you sell, that is not going to happen.

eBay tried the Trading Assistant program, and that failed.   Later they tried eBay Valet, and that also tanked.   Selling for others just has too many pitfalls and problems, and that is doubly true for anything in the computers and electronics categories.   I can regale you with all the issues, but you probably do not care.

So:  Try one well-advertised yard sale while the weather is still good.  Or advertise the whole shebang as one lot for one money, and let a reseller find you.  Or, if  you itemize on your tax return, donate it all and take the tax deduction.

Sorry to be so non-encouraging, but it's an honest answer.
