Selling gear with TMR

I hadn't even thought of that. I have a few things for sale now. If they don't move soon, I may go that route. Thanks for the reminder!

As a former buyer/seller with them, make sure you do your own research on the historical sales of any product you are attempting to buy or sell to TMR. If you are willing to take less and want convenience, it's one option. The other option is list it yourself, be patient, and pass along savings to the buyer directly.

They seem to try their best to learn the market values on mainstream stuff, however if you are dealing with less known, custom, or boutique products they are not familiar with, and have no data on yet, keep your expectations in check. 

Have worked with them on some buying and selling and find them very responsive and easy to work with. Definitely provide a good service  to make selling of big ticket items in particular more hassle free. 

I have sold items to them a number of times walking into the transaction knowing  that I am leaving money on the table so to speak ; however they are absorbing the hassle of listing, the time waiting for a potential sale, etc. It all comes down to what's more important to you, immediate money in hand, most dollars you can realize, hassle free transaction,  ....

I really love TMR for buying things. I don't expect to get top dollar and realize that they're taking a lot of the hassle away for me. Ultimately, everyone has to decide what's worth *their* time or money, so I'm really just probing different opinions.

Markets are funny things. When there's a lot of data out there -- say, selling a brand like McIntosh or Klipsch, things are easy to price. Then, it comes down to whether one is good with their "cut." When there's not a lot of data out there, then it can get hard to price things, and so whether the "cut" winds up seeming reasonable is a more speculative affair.
