I've used eBay for a few things, but that was years ago, and mostly CDs and some book packs.
I have a bad habit of finding the value in everything, so I rarely sell anything
Besides, for how little most people pay for used stuff, I figure I might as well keep it. Not even worth the hassle of packaging, taking to the post office, waiting in line, etc. for only that. (Though if you can sell local and the person wants to come by to pick up, that's a lot better. I've been considering a few Craigslist ads with that in mind.)

I can't recall anytime I tried to sell something online more than once. It was my original DS system, with all the components and such. Tried auctioning it on eBay. Turns out the guy who won the bid was unable to pay for it. So that soured my experience. The system ended up going to my niece instead as a Christmas present, and I never tried selling anything again.

I've sold a handful of things over Buy-sell-trade groups, as well as by word of mouth at work. Either way, if whatever you sell is desirable, someone will want it.

I sell on eBay regularly. Sold and shipped four items this month. I prefer it to selling locally, mostly because on eBay I can list things for their highest current value and someone out there will eventually pay me for it. Even given the cut eBay and Paypal take from the final sale price (10% and 2.9%+$0.30 respectively), it's worth it. Also I don't have to meet up with anyone if I just ship out a package and that's a plus.

DS and PS2 are starting to become "growing markets" for collectors. It's best to find your most valuable/most sought after games, and hold onto them. .hack is a great example of PS2 games going up in value.

I sold my textbooks from college online to try to get some of the money back. Now I don't really sell anything online, although time to time, I will buy stuff off Amazon.

I sell some stuff on Amazon when I have no use for it anymore. I sometimes buy on there too.

I wouldn't know where to start. I'm always afraid of taxes...
