Thread: Tons of stuff to sell, but may be not yet?

Tweet

I have a RIDICULOUS amount of Halloween props and decorations that I have accumulated over the years. This year seems to have maxed out my storage space so I want to start selling some things. My question is:

When is the BEST time to sell Halloween props/etc to get the most money for them? Should I wait till closer to Halloween or just start posting them on ebay or Craigslist now? Also, it seems shipping would be a pain for a lot of the props, how do you guys deal with that?

P.S. I live in Sacramento, CA if anyone close is interested. Most of my stuff is from Spirit Halloween stores. I have just about every animatronic they have sold.

If you sell now, people will want or expect to negotiate down your price. Near Halloween, I usually get what im asking...It all depends on how soon you want to turn it back into cash.

Shipping and Ebay fees are the kicker for large props.. I always use Craigslist, buyers pick up the stuff...

What do you have to sell by the way? ....send me some pics.

I have random photos here and there, but when I do actually start to sell I will pull everything out of storage and take a photo of each prop/decoration.
