I have to say that we have sold a lot of things on eBay that we didn't think would. Books and DVDs are hot items online, especially if they are in great condition. We have been able to sell a lot of our (HIS) tv series DVD collections, computer books, and CDs.

He also sells older computers and peripheries, mp3 players, cell phones, etc., when he wants to upgrade. We have a deal that if he can make half the amount of money that a new product would cost, it's a deal. Lately, we have been coming out ahead by getting rid of things we don't use anymore.

Ebay does, in fact, rock when you want to get rid of stuff. The alternate is to give stuff to charity, libraries, etc.

About those space bags...

If you're traveling and you use them, how do you compact them again while you're on the road? Don't you need access to a vacuum?

They have travel space bags that work by rolling the air out. So you fill them about 2/3 full (there's a fill line), then seal like a ziploc bag, then you roll from the top and the air goes out the bottom.

The work pretty decently for a couple trips, especially long trips. I have had the problem of them only lasting a trip or two though. The coleman ones my mom gave me have lasted a lot longer.
