I'll list some items and the Percentages of the original prices I managed to sell at. Ranked from lowest to highest.
- Frisby plate- used 2 times: 17%
- Small purse- used very often: 20%
- Water cooler- used occasionally: 27%
- Swissgear backpack- used a couple of times: 35%
- Overcoat- used 3 times: 38%
- Baseball bat- never used: 62.5%
- Classic guitar- used occasionally: 125%
I bought the guitar second-hand two years ago, was unusually cheap in the first place.
Notice how most of the items sold for around 1/3 or less the original price.
The lesson is as follows:
- If you buy new stuff, get its price's worth, get one you know you'll use A LOT. It will devaluate rapidly as soon as you get out the store.
- Second-hand goods are mostly priced strongly based on the practical value of the goods. Buying second-hand can save you up to 70 percent of the original price.
- Keep your items in good condition, so you can sell them successfully.
Please share your thoughts!
