Where To Post

Post by lerbi »

I have several SS items mostly related to the table saw function- WWII Blades, Tenon Master Jig, etc. - available, but wonder if I'm advertising them in the right places. Currently these items are available both on Craigslist and on eBay. Nothing has received any interest whatsoever. Are there other places to sell such items? I realize that the disinterest may be because of my asking price (40-50% of new), but I want to make sure that I've not missed something.

40 - 50 % seems good for craigslist, but not a good opening bid on ebay.

Craigs list is 'regional'.

Most people looking either place are looking for a 'bargain'.

Trick on e-bay is to have more than one 'bidder' that are all ignorant of sniping and get all excited over the bidding process. Not something under the seller's control.

Most areas have local buy, sell & trade Facebook groups that are pretty effective.
