Buying/Selling Used Cross Stitch Leaflets
 

I just cleaned out my stash, and I have a few leaflets that are
duplicates or designs that I've decided I'll never do. Is there a place
online where I can resell these leaflets other than Ebay? I usually
resell books on half.com, but these leaflets don't have ISBN numbers, so
I don't think I can sell them there.

I'd also be interested in swapping them, and/or buying other used
leaflets. Any suggestions?

I don't know of too many other places but I might have a trade for you, so
might others. Contact me by taking out nospam from the address.

Several people have expressed interest in what's in the leaflets I'm
looking to unload, so I'm posting a list here. I hope that's OK. Please
contact me by email (remove no spam) if you are interested in any of
these. I will sell or swap.

I'm sorry I don't have photos, but I bet you can see these leaflets on
cross stich websites.

motifs.

You could try selling them at Quin's Needlework Auction site, it seems
to be pretty popular. I haven't sold anything there yet but I have
purchased things before and had good results:

And here is another cross stitch auction site you could try (I haven't
used this one personally):

Good luck!

There is a sister site: rec.crafts.textiles.marketplace for just this
purpose.

I have sold a lot, and also bought stuff, at the second site, cross-stitch
online. I know people who have listed at Quins, and they say they have had
some luck there. I haven't payed with that site yet. I think I will wonder
over to the cross-stitch auction now, and post some of my surplus floss.
