I try to use registrars like Namecheap, eNom, and GoDaddy that offer free "push" services. This saves the buyer transfer fees and is a more enticing buy.
You can list your domain for sale in many ways. First I'd recommend listing it on aftermarkets like SEDO, Afternic, BuyDomains, etc. This will get you some traffic and in cases like SEDO work as a good middleman for the negotiations. The aftermarkets get a ton of traffic on their own from both domainers and retail buyers.
After you list the domain on the aftermarkets, the next step is to actively promote it. If you want the quick sale, post an auction on Digital Point, SitePoint, NamePros, DNforum, and of course here. You'll want to be sure to detail who the registrar is, when the domain expires, any traffic stats, and any revenue stats you may be earning (from AdSense or your parking company). Any PageRank and incoming links the domain has accrued will also increase the valuation. Also be sure to list the details of the sale: when the auction ends, starting price, BIN price, and bid increment price.
Be sure to reserve the right to refuse a sale based on a buyers reputation or geographic location. It can be a little difficult, but not impossible, to transfer ccTLDs based on what country the new owner lives in.
After a clear winner of the sale has been selected, get their payment BEFORE transferring the domain. Once you transfered or pushed the domain out of your account, it's gone and there is no way to recoup your loss if the winner doesn't pay. It's for this reason that it's also important to research your potential buyer and their reputation. After payment has been received, gather the new owners registrant information (Name, company, address, phone number) and account name if using a free push service, and send the domain to their account immediately. If they are transferring to their registrar, unlock your domain and inform them that it is ready for the transfer request.
In both cases, it's also a courtesy to ask if they'd like you to change the DNS settings before sending the domain, because doing so after the transfer can cost another 48 hours or lost time or so.
Hope this helps.
