If you have valuable antiques, furniture, collectibles, or jewelry to sell, a tag sale may not be your best venue. A painless and often profitable alternative is to use one of a burgeoning group of "trading assistants" to list and sell your wares on eBay. For a commission, typically ranging from 20 to
40 percent, these assistants handle everything, from taking digital photos and writing a compelling listing to managing the auctions and shipping to buyers. You just drop off your things and cash the checks. Visit one of these sites to learn more:
