SELLING IT ALL

I recognize the hassel in shipping equipment and the desire to get rid of it, but (and I am making an assumption here)  as a woman living alone, Do you really want the traffic for this amount of equipment and music in your home or the need to always have a friend or relative with you when shoppers show up.    I would take photos and list the pieces with an individual price or as a set.   Make shiping costs an addition covered by the buyer.   Consignment and liquidators won't get you the buck some of this equipment would garner on the audiophile market.  It seems to come down to a bit of a hassel either way, but one that can bring significant renumeration to you for the effort.   If you just want it Gone then a liquidator route is the best approach. 

Hi,

Once you find out a good ballpark listing price for each component, definitely send all the info and pics to TMRaudio and see what they are willing to pay. They can sometimes be a bit low on some offers, but by and large are a great and painless way to buy, sell or consign your used equipment.  And they also deal with shipping costs and scheduling transport for you, which can be a pita sometimes.

For individual sales, if you enjoy not paying commissions, go the USAudiomart route. I sell everything audio on that site due to no commissions, and they seem to get more hits on stuff that is not crazy high end as well.

Sorry to hear about your troubles….hang in there.

Remind me to amend my advanced medical directive to have my gear moved with me until I'm in the ground.  And my will to bequeath it to someone who cares.

Your comment is so out of place here.  Why do you feel the need to bring negativity to a thread where lots of nice people are trying to help a lady in need with a debilitated husband?

I am actually nearby, in Lufkin, and would be interested in working with you on this.  My take on it would be to give you a fair price for the whole lot of it.  It is good that you inventory it, and there are tools that are found online that may be useful to approximate value.  Someone likely in this thread has pointed you to such a tool, something like the 'audio blue book' is the name of one such tool.

If you want to discuss this with me further, please do not hesitate to reach out.  If we can make a deal on it all, i will pay cash at time of transfer.

Sorry for your loss and I hope this liquidation goes ok for you, be careful though.
