jonnybass Posted October 7, 2019 Share Posted October 7, 2019 Hi I was wondering if the hive mind here had tips for selling gear. You know the best way to accept payments. The best places to meet up. The best option for communication. Please hit me with your valuable knowledge Jonny Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dave_bass5 Posted October 7, 2019 Share Posted October 7, 2019 (edited) Be prepared for time wasters. I placed an ad for my TCE head last night. It stated i had my eye on something, and pick up from me in central London. Later that evening i had a PM from a guy in Spain telling me he has a PJ head he will trade for my BH800 🙄 Edited October 7, 2019 by dave_bass5 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
police squad Posted October 7, 2019 Share Posted October 7, 2019 I have a PA sub for sale at £550. I got an offer of £200 because all 2nd hand speakers are past their best. I told him he best not buy it then. He said no one will. Be prepared for dickheads too. Always post good pictures and indicate any faults/ damage. The other thing is courier. If you can arrange a courier, you will probably get a better price. I'm not sure about insuance with couriers as they are all different 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If someone thinks your asking price is high , and has no intention to buy it, don't broadcast your opinion. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SH73 Posted October 7, 2019 Share Posted October 7, 2019 I'd check the person's feedback page etc. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deedee Posted October 7, 2019 Share Posted October 7, 2019 2 hours ago, police squad said: Always post good pictures and indicate any faults/ damage. This is key. Take plenty of good photographs and be completely honest about condition. The dent or damage that you've lived with for years will turn into a major dispute with the buyer if you fail to mention or photograph it in your advert. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lozz196 Posted October 7, 2019 Share Posted October 7, 2019 Research the item being sold and price it similarly/competitively as it doesn’t matter if you think it’s worth £500 but if everywhere else they’re being sold for £250, you’ll not likely get a buyer. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
