Has anyone had luck selling wood boards? I've got a decent stash of rough cut, planed, hand hewn and some other pieces that I really don't want to move to my new shop.  It's enough that its worth putting some time into selling, especially with some of the prices I've seen stuff going for lately. I've got it on Craigslist, but anyone have any idea where else I might be able to sell?
I don't have any local yards (that I've heard of) that purchase from individuals.  

Thanks in advance for any pointers.

Located in central PA if it matters

Location and pick-up vs. shipping matters quite a bit, in my limited experience.

I had a friend who about 15 years ago sold off a shed full of seasoned pecan & hickory planks in Central Florida that was sourced in KY/VA and shipped south via boxcar.  He made significantly more bank here where we don't have those trees compared to trying to sell it up north.

Set up a deal to have some Amish/Mennonites bring the wood down here to Pinecraft and sell it for you for a percentage.
