What's a good way to sell figures?

Hey y'all!

So, quick question. I want to downsize my stuff I don't display (my 1/35 stuff) and my BoTM... but the task of selling all of this just seems so, well, daunting?

When I trimmed my Mattel collection down a bit a few years ago (I went all in on Amber Collection which was a mistake), I found myself giving away portions of it for the sake of my own convenience, and I don't want to do that, either... that said, how do y'all do this when you find yourselves looking to, ah, thin the herd a bit? Also, do PNSO figures even really have secondary market value?

Cheers!

How about this forum? Or about eBay?

I generally sell stuff on eBay. Some people here have probably figured out that some of the stuff I link to in the "New on eBay Germany" thread is my own.

Someone let T. Rex out of his pen
I'm afraid those things'll harm me
'Cause they sure don't act like Barney
And they think that I'm their dinner, not their friend
Oh no

I used to sell a lot here. Upsides include no fees, a small and trustworthy community. Downsides include that things might sit awhile before you find someone interested, again because it's a small community. I have also sold on ebay and that's fine. There's also a subreddit called toyexchange. It seems to be mainly action figures, so it might be a good place for the BotM but not the 1/35 figures (unless it's pop culture e.g. Rebor or Nanmu).
