[Mastodon83]

04 imagine w/ 50 g switch, cp 1 piece, apache, 20 oz tank, 2 pair of raven havoc x-pants all slightly used except for the pants which are unused.

tippmann 98, 15 oz tank, jt walmart mask, and som v-force mask, all heavely used

what should i charge for all this stuff? tis may not be the right thread but i'm fixin to post it on ebay so i need a quick response

[Crede777]

Extremely rough guestimate but I'd say $300.

[wordf0o]

$250...Or less.

Say the words package...Attracts a lot of beginners/ parents.

[Mastodon83]

how do u figure 250? the pants by themselves retail for 79.99 a pair.

[Stupified]

It's ebay, they're used, and it's only a starting price.

[BoneDaddy68]

sell the pants separately, youll make more $. The spyder wont be too hard to sell, but good luck with the Tippmann.

well u have to understand 2 things
1. if u really look at what stuff sells for you really dont get that great a deal on ebay (ex. i saw an egg sell for $60 and this thing was clear red and really beat up)

2. the stuff i say is barely used is just that, i mean i got that imagine at the end of march and have actually played about 7-8 times with it. not to mention i always cleaned it after i got home.

i dont expect to sell everything for what i paid for it but i do expect to get a good bit from it. i really want to sell it all at once because i'm sick of it and i just want it outta here if i loose a little bit so be it, but no way i'm takin 250

Sorry but used is used. It really doesnt matter if you've used it once or 30 times, the price will be about the same either way. Imagines and tippmanns are a dime a dozen and if your not willing to sell cheap then someone else will be. It may not be fair but thats how it works, especially since the Ion came out.

[Mastodon83]

we arnt talking about a car here, and besides i think i can sell a nice looking gun for more than a beat up one

[Downfall08]

Yes thats true but most people take care of their guns out there. Besides, Its not like someone is going to say "this gun is pretty beat up" in their f/s post. Im just telling you that you shouldnt expect to get a lot for those guns. You may not think its a fair price but just look around at some pbn and pbr f/s threads. Hell, for $250 someone could got an ion with some ups.

Your best bet is ebay selling a package. Maybe just try to sell the spyder separate from the tippy too.

[senghing27]

Well is the 98 a custom or model 98?? Also, tippmanns hold their price better than spyders on ebay. On PBR/PBN for sale threads, then you have some probs, cuz most people are looking for high ends and stuff like that. Hecks, a person bought a box for $300 on ebay. Think about it.

well i understand the ion deal but hey u have to look at all u are getting with my stuff, i mean its enough for 2 people to play along with some nice pants. u gas up get some balls and you can be out playing in an hour. yeah u can get an ion but u just get the gun u need a loader and hpa tank which would be well above what u would pay for this. not to mention i'm not trying to sell to veterans i'm seling to beg/novice. so i think around 300 is more than realistic

[Patrick4357]

You have to sell cheap. I just bought my spyder Imagine 2k4, no scratches, I keep it in a towel when I am throught with play. I also bought a 32 degrees whisper barrel, one small scratch becasue of friend. I am selling this 200$ value for 100$. Was going to sell my CO2, JT USA Fullheadshield, and my hoppe for a total of 150$ with all of that. You have to go to get something. Or somebody could just buy a Imagine 2k4 for 150$, or less, stock hopper for 5$, or less, and a 20 OZ CO2 tank for 25$ of less. Not used either. I'm pretty sure if I was checking Ebay for a gun, I would like to get the smallest package for cheap, like the gun only, or gun included with a CO2 tank, or hopper. Sell that stuff seperatly, that price like that will kill beginners.

[TheSpy11]

Try to sell as much as you can seperately. Package deals kill the final price.

[Patrick4357]

Exactly what it does. Maybe somebody wants to buy a hopper, not the whole package, you are screwed for awhile. ETC for every item in the package. I hate packages.

Are you even listening to us?

It doesn't matter how much your selling, how good a deal, or how "new" your stuff is, it is going to sell for cheap. You asked us what we thought your stuff would sell for, we told you, stop trying to tell us it should sell for more. You want to try a price for more than $350, good luck selling (I mean that sincerely).

You shouldn't expect to sell for more than $300.


I say your Best bet it is to try and sell the 98 and spyder in separate packages.
