I recently sold my last .308 Win rifle and I have a bunch of components (new unopened boxes of projectiles, brass and die sets for .308 Win). Where do people sell their new old stock reloading gear? craigslist? ebay? gunbroker? forum classifieds? I've been reloading for a little over 5 years now and have never needed to sell anything so I appreciate the help in advance!
Where do you sell reloading components/tools that you no longer use?

Most gun forums you need to post so many post before you can post in the classifieds.

It could be because of the circles I run in, but over the years, I've never had to "list" any reloading components, tools or gear anywhere in order to sell it - or sometimes give it away. I've always just mentioned to a friend that I was wanting to "unload" (no pun intended) some reloading stuff, and it wasn't long before that friend (or a friend of that friend) took it off my hands. I've occationally traded reloading "stuff" for other reloading "stuff" that way too.
Like I said though, I might run in different "circles" than a lot of people - several of my friends and relatives are reloaders themselves.

Until new members have enough post count to start threads in "Buy, Sell, Trade Reloading Components and Gear" subforum, members "could" list them in their signature lines with "For sale/trade ... PM me if interested".
@Walkalong, if this circumvention is in any way "no no" in regards to THR forum rules, let me know.

I usually sell in forum classifieds anything I have extra.

OP is new and lacks the post count to post in the trading post.
It definitely breaks the spirit if the rule. Circumvent is the word that comes to mindUntil new members have enough post count to start threads in "Buy, Sell, Trade Reloading Components and Gear" subforum, members "could" list them in their signature lines with "For sale/trade ... PM me if interested".

True. But he asked where others normally sell.OP is new and lacks the post count to post in the trading post.
I don't think it's just gun forums. I've moderated a couple forums in the past, and all of them had post limit restrictions to access classifieds. The drawback comes in the form of some that are just trying to get access and start spamming a bunch of comments all over. That was especially prevalent on a computer hobbyist forum, where they would try to spam their way to the for sale ads, get paid for something they claimed to be selling, then disappear.

I don't sell much. I believe in barter and I almost never leave the other guy feeling at a loss...
