Today there was a school supplies sale at my school and a Jansport backpack only coated $25. My brother took me and my mom gave me $40. The only thing I bought is just a backpack and a pencil pouch and gave my mom the change. I felt bad about spending her money so I washed the dishes and cleaned my room and my brother's room. And now my dad is telling me to return it. Original price is $50 and he's telling me to return it even though it costs $25. What the heck. Why are they so cheap?

Answer
First of all, Mabye they want to give you a cheap bag. Mabye they are rednecks and want beer. nah im kidding, Explain the price and everything. They might need the money?

How do I get the best appraisal for things that I possess and what is the best means of selling them?

I know ya'll are going to say that it depends what I want to sell. I want to sell some beanie babies (both TY and other brands and I have some packaged tinie beanies from when McDonald's sold them) , maybe some pairs of shoes, clothes, books (children's, adult, young adult, school textbooks), maybe my DELL computer keyboard (model # RT7D40) because I was going to get a new one, my gold cross necklace and other necklaces (a choker necklace and a shark tooth necklace that my dad got me from Costa Rica), Magic the Gathering cards, Pogs and slammers ( I have some bad ass slammers) from the 90s, magazines, sports cards, some tae kwon doe equipment (like sparring gear), maybe some music CDs, an old SONY boombox (from the 90s or 80s) type stereo with speakers but the wires that hook up to the speakers broke, an APEX DVD player, some marbles and a Yoda hand doll (the type of doll that you put your hand through to make the mouth or head move), a SONY Discman CD player that doesn't work (don't know why, it's about 9 years old or so), a CPS instruction clicker for school, a James Avery silver ring with a cross in it, some old computer games, and some school and honor society pins that you put on your shirt, maybe some old pairs of prescription glasses and a pair of prescription recreational glasses, and I think I have some old toys that i used to play with as a kid. I actually have some Z bots. How much are those worth? I have an old duncan yo yo but the string is kinda old and worn. I guess the last thing is an old Jansport school backpack.

About how much do ya'll think I could get for each of these items or for the whole lot?

And where should I sell this stuff to get the most money? Ebay? Craigslist? Garage Sale? I would be willing to hear other options in addition to these three that I just said.

Answer
no dude. you will not get better answer than what u already know except to add pawnshop to list of possible customers.

but re appraisal, in my yard sale experience, it sounds mostly without economical value except Possibly the few items that have special interest to collectors.

item of high value this year is probably tobacco plants if u look to have one time sale.
