    I'm considering selling the amps/subs, video games..etc that i don't use anymore. But i have never tried selling anything before. I was always afraid of getting scammed.
    Another issue for me is i'm at work from 7am to 7-8pm...so not sure how i'm gonna get package to UPS to send either. i think they close at 5pm

    So any tips and suggestions of what i should look out for? How safe is Ebay these days?
    What are my options as far as sending the packages since i get home so late? Or is UPS open on saturday?

    i'd hate to sell something and not be able to ship it right away.

    i think there is ups drop off and pick up locations that stay open later then 5.. and i think u can schedule them to pick the package up from ur house as late as 9 or 10 pm.. not 100% for sure though..

    Ebay is usually fine as long as you are selling to trusted members. Just be sure to check their feedback, and make sure they have a paypal account. Be sure to include in the auction you will ship within xx days of receiving a payment.
