Speaking of which... I hadn't been on eBay for ages until today when I was there looking for other things and I thought maybe I should check my saved searches. I found this:

This was so much bigger than I realised, it arrived assembled in a laptop box and almost filled the width of it, it's about 40cm long! It was filthy, though, the top was covered in some pretty old-looking dust, but apart from that the pieces were in great condition for a 2003 set, no yellowing at all. And, considering I paid £6 for it, it's only missing 14 pieces of a value less than £1 from Bricklink (albeit with £3 postage). A bargain, I think, especially since I've washed it all now...
 
I'm thinking about selling off a lot of my Lego collection, both boxed and unboxed sets, apart from eBay are there any Lego specific sites in the UK that are good for selling?

Bricklink is by far the most popular but there's also Brickowl. Plenty of shops want to buy second hand Lego too (but that in itself tells you what to expect - you will be lowballed for a quick sale, it's more for parents offloading their kids' Lego hoard than people who actually know what they've got.)

Whatever you do, though, be armed with Bricklink's price guide.

Edit: what sorts of sets do you have? What themes? Asking for a friend...

In the process of trying to catalogue everything, but a bit of everything, Technic, Star Wars, Speed Champions, Icons sets.
 
Took a bit of a risk on this one:

(Pumpkins for scale, it's a big box!)

I've been looking for this for a while but mostly found £60 examples that were guaranteed 100% complete. Found one for £28 described as "appears to be complete" from a business seller on eBay, put it on my watch list, the seller made an offer at £25, I countered with £18 and they accepted.

Now I've got all three of the big Designer vehicles - 4402, 4403 and now 4404 - which has released some good chemicals in my brain. I just hope any missing pieces are common ones and not any of the ones unique to this set.

Edit: after a very quick root around the box it looks like I've got most of the very visible ones that would be hard to replace, so that's cool, but we'll see about the rest!
