What do I do with the stuff I don't use?

There's plenty of stuff I don't use... Do I reprocess it or do I try to sell it on the market? Also, is there a way to transfer my goods from one system to another one without transporting them by ship?

Thanks for your help.

1. Sell it. I can't be bothered to sell items valued under 100,000.
2. Reprocess it.

You can have other people move your stuff using courier contracts.

Example: Buy a freight container, which hold 200,000 m3, and fill it with the junk you want to sell or reprocess. When it is full, put it in a courier contract to a trade hub (with an appriate amount of collateral to cover a loss). When it arrives, sell the contents or reprocess them as desired.

TIP: Train Amarr Industrial 1 to get the largest low skill Industrial, the Bestower. It takes about half a day to train.

This may depend on whether you've honed your market skills. You may want to contract it all and sell it off in a bundle to an interested buyer. If not, there is a loot refining website you can use to help you to determine what to sell and what to reprocess. It relies on Jita prices and if you aren't in Jita and don't want to go to Jita, you can only use it as an indication of prices. You can set certain parameters such as what your refining skill level is and how lazy you feel. It will tell you what the value of each item is and sort into a 'sell' pile and a 'refine' pile.

To use the site you need an API key, (data is cached for 6 or 8 hours) but the site talks you through how to get that.

Move expensive items to trade hub (Jita, Amarr, Rens, Hek, Dodixie etc) and sell.

Reprocess other stuff and sell ore (if youre not into building thisngs yourself).
