Hi Keith, You should just post an itemized list here, and let some of
the folks here comment on their value. Just because you're posting what
you're considering for sale here doesn't necessarily mean you'll have to
agree with these values, or be in any way obligated to sell these items
at said price, but it should give you some basic ideas. Theres enoguh
knowledgeable people here to give you a very accurate rundown on the
value of what you have, and have no reson to be dishonest about thier
opinions.
Without knowing what you have, no one can give any reasonable or
accurate values to these items.
I'll give a couple here to show you:
A 5 year old $5,000 SCT+mount which is mint may only be worth a fraction
of its new cost (lets say $2900-$3200)
An 8-9 year old Astro-Physics 7" refractor which cost $5,000 new might
now be worth close to $20,000.
Once you figure a fairly accurate value to each item you wish to sell
(or the whole package) you can always place it for sale on Astromart
with a slightly higher asking price, and then state OBO (Or Best Offer)
I myself would say that "most" people on Astromart do NOT say they're
going to buy something, and then later decide to jerk you around, and
not buy. Sure, there's the occasional case I'm sure, but using
Astromart for numerous years, I have never had this personally happen to
me. A-Mart is not Ebay though, as a buyer is NOT under any legal
commitment to buy. Mark
