Bored? Help me price my garage sale stuff...

mrslaquinta

I have tons of stuff just taking up space and I am feeling a big need to simplify (and make some $), so it's all got to go.  But, I have no idea what normal garage sale prices are and I don't have time to mess with Craigslist for most of these things.  I would like to just get rid of everything at once, so I will probably just do a one-day garage sale in a couple of weeks, and the simpler the pricing, the better.  (So I am imagining pricing all like items the same when possible.)  Thanks!!

I bought my PISA on craigslist for $65, I think, and it didn't have any spare parts with it.  So, I would say at a garage sale $65 would be good.

eta: we bought our carseat from michelle&russ for $40.  It was a graco and had an extra base.  So, I think maybe $50 for yours?

I never price anything - I just go with the flow.  later in the morning, just about everything gets reduced to .25 because I'm over.it.com

you might want to try listing the more "expensive" baby items on craigslist - my experience with garage sales is no one wants to pay.  example:  some lady didn't buy a pair of shoes because I told her they were $1.  she wanted .50

Whatever you end up pricing things, be sure to let me know when you decide to have your sale. I'll be there bright and early. I see several things I could convince DH to buy.

DH and I had a garage sale this past weekend and for several hours had no less than twenty people in the yard at all times. It was crazy.

But the clothing was barely touched. I didnt think about it before but afterwards I took the leftovers to plat0s cl0set and they bought a few things. For more than I had priced at the garage sale. Then took the rest to S a f e P l a c e.

The number one thing people asked for , toys, and baby stuff... and we have no kiddos.
