Selling Your Things

I used this company to sell a generator and my carpet tools. They took my items and NEVER PAID ME.

I wanted to let everyone know what a great experience I had with these guys. I had to move recently and needed to get rid of a LOT of stuff. The problem was that I KNEW that my stuff had value. I had a garage sale and I tried to put a few things on Craigslist. I sold my biggest item (massage chair) on Craigslist but there was so much more and I didn’t want to take it with me. It was SOOOOO convenient to have a place to send my really valuable stuff to 1. not be in my way and 2. still have a chance that I can get some money for it. Every person I spoke with was awesome, kudos to the customer service team. When I had a few questions about the details, Jason was great and helped me understand how everything worked. I’m a web savvy person but I just didn’t have the time to deal with trying to sell my stuff, this was the perfect solution for me.

When you want SPAM in your inbox then use Selling Your Things to sell your stuff. From the very first moment they interact with you Selling Your Things (S.Y.T. A.K.A. «SYT» on their web site) uses questionable and unethical methods to send unwanted email to your inbox.
The latest SPAM attack S.Y.T. on my inbox came via a response to my listing on Craigslist. S.Y.T. used the opportunity to try push their service on me instead instead of being invited. After my initial review of S.Y.T. my theory that they had used a robot responder designed to scan the current CL ads and spam the sellers was indicated to be incorrect by one of the S.Y.T. employees. As corrected from a S.Y.T. staff member I am now informed that SPAM responses to your Craigslist ad are manually created via a conscious action. S.Y.T. scans current Craigslist ads. Their staff then responds to your ad with a subject line that appear to be a valid response. Once you open the email you will have found targeted SPAM executed by an S.Y.T. staff member. As such their business activity moved from being a unforeseen problem of using a new tool, to an act of deliberate email SPAM by the S.Y.T. staff. For shame!
As the public media as shown SPAM is a an ongoing problem, and organizations who send SPAM are generally regarded as scumbags.
But let’s move on from my initial business interaction experience with S.Y.T. to one of ongoing nature. So far the communication with S.Y.T. staff has not been pleasant nor has it provided much of positive outlook for the future. I have offered to communicate with the owner in in the hopes of resolving the problems to date. So far only a single employee has responded. I had requested the owner respond but there has been no indication at this point that my request has been passed on. Hopefully this is a problem of a single employee and not an indication of a problematic business owner.
In reviewing the the services offered by S.Y.T. I have found the fees to be more that I would want to pay. Their S.Y.T. commission fees start at 30% of the selling price of you stuff. On top the S.Y.T.fee you are still responsible for paying the fees charges buy eBay on the sale price of your item, and the PayPal fee if the buyer uses PayPal to purchase your stuff. All of those fees soon add up to a large amount and quickly leave you wondering if S.Y.T. is a worthless exercise as well as a waste for your time, energy, and money. All for very little gain in comparison to selling your stuff on your own.
Based on my business experience with S.Y.T. I suggest you do yourself a favor and avoid these spamming scumbags with fee laden services anyway you can.
