I have two complete darkrooms' equipment I'd like to sell. Can anyone advise me on the best place to sell individual pieces? Would it be in these classifieds? Or would Ebay be better?
It's a lot of equipment and I'm willing to take the time to get it all to "good homes."
Thanks for any replies.

I'd try here first, then move it to ebay later o if it doesn't sell. EBay fees are pretty high these days. Of course, you need to be a subscriber to sell here.
 
I bought my enlarger and print dryer on Craig's List. Advertise it here on Photrio.
 
I would try to sell stuff here and avoid eBay, if you can. As already mentioned above, eBay's fees are pretty high, and any transaction can be risky nowadays.

I need a set of large flat-bottomed developing trays, bit enough to accommodate 15x22-inch paper. Cesco-Lite 16x20s work. If you have any, please let me know.

Rolleiflexible, I do, in fact, have some 16x20 trays (not sure what brand) but unfortunately, I do not have them with me at my current location. I have two houses and only brought part of the equipment to my current location to start selling. The large trays are at the other house and I won't get back to it until August. If you are still interested at that time, I can let you know here. Sorry about that.
 
If you are going to sell them here, it will really help if you indicate their/your location.
Particularly with large items, they are hard to ship!
 
Thank you to all the replies so far. (I welcome more, too!). Yes, I will indicate my location for local pick up as an option. Thank you :smile:
 
I’ve sold here and eBay. Both have their advantages. You can sell on both, until it’s sold. It’s nice if you have a 100 percent feedback on eBay , when selling elsewhere.
 
I had pretty good luck on Offerup. That said, it took about 6 months to sell a quality enlarger. What’s your location?
 
That's local to me (and I think some others here as well). Interested to see what you're selling.

I'll be posting photos soon in Photrio's classifieds and will let you know here.
 
There's also FB Marketplace or a specific Darkroom-related FB group.
FB-M isn't very search-friendly, but you might get lucky there.
 
Rolleiflexible, I have a set of four red Paterson 16x20 developing trays, in very good condition, here in San Jose if you're still interested. Sorry it took so long to get back to you on this. Please let me know if you'd like to meet up to see them.
