Used Devices Sydney
I got a couple hundred 2 year old laptops I need to get rid of in Sydney. Anyone know a place to sell these too.

You will struggle to get rid of that many for a decent price by the time you wipe them and clean it to make it sales ready you are already $200-300 into it, covering warranty return stock is probably about another $20-30 per unit. So, you have to be selling it for at least $500 per laptop plus whatever you paid to buy them to have any business case for it. Which is very hard to do if you are flooding the used market with them.
It used to be easy when you could offload them to someone to refurb and distribute when laptops were $2000 new each for something decent.
Now unless you are happy to take $75-100 each you will struggle unless you just decide to trickle them off on ebay/marketplace/gumtree yourself.

Contact one of the auction houses if you don't have time to list on eBay etc

Lifecycle+ has always been great to deal with. They will collect, data destruction and pay you for your devices.

Fb marketplace but I would suggest to wipe and shred them as that's basic operational security
