Selling baby equipment?

[twinsinmd]

We are trying to weed out and sell some of the baby stuff we have down in the basement. We have so much and we know we are done having children. I know that we can sell it at a consignment sale through the moms of multiples group, but I was also thinking about putting it up on a Facebook group for my area. How do I price it?

Like, we have two of the FP Space Saver swing/seats-we used them maybe twice? Or a Snugabunny Swing? Is there a standard %?

I've looked on Craigslist for sample prices, but i don't know if those are accurate?

Thanks!

I just sold stuff at a garage sale, so I feel like prices are lower. I would go based off the CL price.

Thanks-I put up one of the Space Saver Seats last night-Retails for $75, I saw on Craigslist for $40, and I put it up for $30. Someone offered $15, and I wasn't sure if I was just expecting too much, or what.

It may just be the wrong group-thanks!

I think 25-35% of retail is the standard. Unless it's a rare and desirable item, or particular brands (Bob, Chariot, Phil and Ted) I don't think you'll get much more than that. $30 for a $75 item sounds fair.

Thanks ladies!

I felt like it was a lowball offer. But then again, I wasn't sure if I was just completely out of touch with things!
