Unless a card specifically says otherwise, once you play a card it NEVER goes back into your hand.

Classes and Races are discarded when you want to get rid of them; you can never have them on the table if you aren't using them.

Items (cards with a Gold Piece value or the phrase "No Value" on the card) may be turned sideways to show that you are not using them, as long as you are not in combat. You can only have one Big item at a time, whether you are using it or not, unless you have a card (such as Dwarf or Cheat!) that lets you break that rule.

You may discard a Class or Race at any time. Items were discussed above. You may play a new Class or Race at any time on your turn, or immediately after getting one (for instance, as part of Charity). You may play a new Item at any time on your turn or immediately after getting one, as long as you are not in combat at the time.

Last time I played, I was at lvl 7 and I drew a monster, then I played "go up a level" card, and then I sold some weapons out of my hand for 1,000 gold, and THEN I beat the monster, so that I was at lvl 9 when I killed it. And I won. Was that legal?
GUAL cards may be played on any player at any time. You can sell Items for a level at any time on your turn except during combat. So no, your play was not entirely legal.

Sure, as long as you aren't in combat.

Weapons? Pretty balloons, and other similar usable once only cards? Berserking? (I was a warrior)
That card is a bit confusing. You get an extra level if you're already Level 7 or higher, or use a negative Monster Enhancer like Baby, so you don't have to use any other bonuses.

Cards in your hand are immune to Curses and Bad Stuff unless the card text specifically mentions them.
