Put it on craigslist and email everyone you know with the particulars. I put like a dozen pics on craiglist along with my entire salespitch and then emailed everyone I knew with the link. I offered them $500 if someone they referred bought my TT.
Sold it the next day to the first craigslist responder. Second responder was a co-worker of a friend who would have bought it if guy #1 hadn't already committed.
So short answer is to get your pitch in order and tell everyone you know in every way you can. But if you are lazy, don't have the time, or squeezing the last nickel out of it isn't important, go ahead and consign it. Theres no wrong answer; just gotta figure out what works for You. Good Luck!
