Apps/website for garage sales

What's the best app or website that I can use to manage a garage sale - both a virtual/online sale and a planned in-person sale?

I'm in San Francisco, if this is a regionally based thing but I want a website or an app that I can upload descriptions, photos, and prices to and sell from there or just use it to manage inventory and as an ad for my sale. I have a ton of stuff, some with very specific markets (diving, motorcycle stuff, crafts, tools, music-related gear, for example) that might be needing a specific buying rather than a random passerby so I want to get ads out to craigslist, nextdoor, and neighborhood lists that link to the ad. I've used OfferUp to sell a few things but it doesn't seem to be great for a whole raft of individual listings (unless I'm missing something). I guess I could just use Craigslist and do a mega-post with everything interesting listed there but is there some other online virtual garage sale that i'm missing? Varagesale.com doesn't seem to be what I'm looking for either.

You can do a bunch of Craigslist posts in the various for sale sections, noting that it is all related to one garage sale, with a more general garage sale post as well. Craigslist has the "more ads by this user" link for people to see everything you are advertising acronyms the site.

Yeah, you see this on Craigslist a lot. I will see posts like this on Nextdoor sometimes as well, which can be a good way to reach people who are close enough to just swing by and pick up whatever they purchase. And letgo is an app that keeps popping up for me as something where you can sell your used stuff locally, but I've not used it yet.
