Fernando Cobelo In the age of Marie Kondo and the tiny home obsession, more and more people are downsizing and decluttering their homes, leaving renters and homeowners with an excess of stuff. Even if you're more of a maximalist, a kitchen or bathroom renovation could leave you with a host of appliances, big or small, that you don't know what to do with. Fear not! Appliances can be costly (even more so if they're custom), so there's good value in reselling, especially if some of that money can offset the price of a new appliance. Before you rush to find a buyer, first determine if your item is even worth selling at all. Natalie Angelillo, Vice President of OfferUp, and Sarah Sternau, Senior Director of the Certified Refurbished Vertical at eBay, both agree that you'll have the most success selling new or like-new items. An item that has normal wear and tear, but has been well maintained, could also be worth listing, though Sternau notes that if there are imperfections, it's important to be transparent about them. Angelillo adds, "many buyers want to make sure their item works before they buy it, so if your item has technical issues, you should make that clear to prospective buyers."
