Hi All, My dad's friend is looking for a place to sell some old boardgames and was wondering if there were any good options other than ebay? This is a bit out of my gaming area, so was wondering if any of you had ideas of other places he could try? He's looking to sell the following if it helps: WWII Midway Submarine Flat Top Cold War Sixth Fleet Harpoon The Falklands War Thanks in advance for the advice! Chris |

boardgamegeek.com Sign up for an account. Search for the game in the top middle. Scroll down to Marketplace (Above the images section). Click the little "Sell" text in the colored Marketplace header bar. Games don't usually sell very fast on BGG, unless they're priced to move. You can also create a Geeklist to auction off games. This often works well with themed collections like yours and usually moves the games much faster than otherwise. Recent example: link If you do an auction, it's good form to do the actual sales by posting each game to its Marketplace (on the game page) and only taking the order from the person who wins the auction. That way, BGG gets its fee for hosting the auction and serving as a marketplace. Those fees largely keep BGG alive, so its uncool to circumvent them. |

Noble Knight games purchases games. You could also list it for him on the marketplace boards, or he could put it up on eBay. |
