Fleetie, you say that every time I punt my For Sale page - I have *no*
evidence that what you say is correct....???

Fine.




I appreciate your effort to help! :-)

You may be amused to know that even when I had 'COLLECT ONLY' at the top

of
the page I kept getting 'How much to Italy?', 'How much to Hong Kong?' on
the Dynacos (and other bits and pieces) would you believe!!?? (Best one

was
an email from the Philipines!!)

(If the Dynacos were made from Styrofoam I could have sold a dozen

pairs!!)

This is hobby **** - basically, the list will sit there until somebody
*wants* what they see, then it happens. I've got a lot of stuff shoved

into
a cupboard now and some more, less vulnerable stuff up in the loft, so the
floor space problem isn't so bad as it was!

(I still might eBay a few bits and bobs, but who TF really wants to get

into
it...??)

Noticed your getting rid of the Buschhorns! Thought you were pretty sold on
those LOL. And those Tannoys


What Tannoy's?...

won't have even caught their breath before
they'll be sat in the departure lounge will they?! I have to agree with
Fleetie though - if I were to walk past a few stalls at a car boot and not
one item carried a price I'd be less inclined to make an offer. You must
have an idea of what you're prepared to accept - what in your mind is a fair
price. If this isn't intended to be a get rich quick scheme (where you hope
people will offer stupid money because they don't know the real value of
previously owned items - and I'm sure this clearly isn't that sort of thing)
then why not just say what you think is a fair price? I haven't a clue about
most of what's in the list in terms of its original price (or cost to make),
age of item and rate of depreciation so I wouldn't know whether a turntable
is worth £50 or £150. If someone offers you £50 when you really want £150
then you're at some point going to have to tell them and rather than wait
for them to keep upping their offer until they hit your price why not just
give people an OIRO figure?
