Where to sell old sets online/internationally? (lemmy.dbzer0.com)

I've recently gotten a lot of my childhood Lego from parents place to mine and am looking for a good way to sell them.

What I have is just a lot of smaller/medium sized sets from the 80s or 90s. I think most of them should be complete but I need to dig through bags and put them together, so it will take a bit of time to know.

With complete I mean having all parts, nothing broken or missing, including instructions. I only have a few original boxes left though, so its mostly bricks and instructions.

I am not in a hurry to sell, but I'd like to get back my storage space that this is occupying. One note is that I live in Northern Europe, shipping cost in my country is pretty high, especially for tracked packages, not sure this could be a factor to reduce my chances of selling stuff at decent price.

Any input/suggestions for this would be appreciated!

I’ve only been a buyer, but I think sellers just keep their products posted for sale until they sell (or the seller decides to do something else with them). I’ve also seen sellers put certain things on discount relative to their previous price point.

You might not sell things right away, but you might appeal to a certain buyer’s criteria and preferences when they decide to look for the particular products.
