How should I sell my stuff?

Post by Minorthreat412 »

Hey Everyone,

I've gotten tired of my system in my car and I just want to get some money for this stuff. What should I do to sell it all? EBay? Sell it here?

I kinda figured the pawn shop would be out of the question because they never give you any money for what you have.

Any help would be great, Thanks Everyone.

What do you have? Post it in the F/S section of several car audio forums like this one. You'll get way more money that way if anyone's interested. Pawn shops absolutely rip you off.

Ebay is a good place to sell if your just looking to get rid of it. Not going to get the best price for it but it will sell.

well it all depends on what you are selling,and in this case you will not get the best price for it. Think about it, why do you go to ebay to buy? To get the best deals, so thats exactly what the people buying your product want, the best deals. It'll sell,just make sure you don't start out asking too much. Some people just don't know the value of high end equipment.

eBay buyers have a flea market mentality. Nobody wants to pay much for anything, so as a seller don't expect to get the best prices for quality gear.
Hell I just bought four pieces of art that I couldn't have gotten framed and matted for what I paid for them. Appraised value for all four in reality is over $5,000. I see amplifiers worth an easy $500 sell for less than half that all of the time there. I like shopping eBay because I'm willing to pay more than most people if an item is worth the price, but I'd hate to sell anything of value there with all of the scammers and idiots around and the lack of anybody with money willing to use that medium from my experience.
