garage sale bedding pricing

in Toddlers: 24 Months+

 I had this set for DS's crib.  He's in a twin bed now, so we don't need this set anymore.  I was going to sell it in a garage sale this May.

https://www.babysupermall.com/main/products/lai/lai12006v.html 

The set would include:

Quilt

Bumper

Dust ruffle

3 Sheets

2 Window valances

Diaper stacker

Wall plaques

Mobile

Lamp

It would retail for about $320.  It's in excellent condition...seriously.  Is it crazy to ask $80 for the set?

    For a Mom2Mom sale $80 would be good but garage sales tend to have these types of things priced cheaper, and most of your customers will not be looking for bedding.  If I were you i'd list the lot on Craigslist for $80-100 and try to sell it there first.  That way if you don't sell on CL you can then stick it in the garage sale for less, probably $40-60. 

    Craiglist is a much better place to sell infant bedding sets.  As long as it's current and in great condition you'll sell pretty fast.  Bad thing about garage sales is everyone wants a deal and will lowball you.

    I agree with Craigslist as a better idea. Or else for a garage sale either sell the accessories like lamp, mobile, diaper stacker seperate from the bedding and lower the price. But you might sell some and be stuck with left overs.

    I'm not in it for the money.  I was already participating in the sale, the bedding was an after thought.  I will try Craigslist if it doesn't go at the sale.

    Thanks!

    No way is that to cheap. That is a really nice set I was looking at one almost identical. I would start at $100-115. If you go on CL or Garage sale the person buying it will try to get a lower price so start a little bit higher so that you still get a fair price! I would seriously not consider going any lower then say $75 for a set like that and that is still a great price (if it is in the condition you say) and you get all of that!
