Default Re: how long does a sale usually take?

all good advice and obviously price and condition dictate speed of sale.


as a coupe-you are at the top of pricing. bring it down 1000. each week till it sells and it will be gone in a jiffy!

I would never do this, it is a distress tactic that unless you get lucky, will result in a below market price. Any small volume collectible needs time to reach an adequate number of buyers. I have taken 3-12 months to sell specialty items, and the price is always better when you find the right buyer.

A fair price is when an educated buyer finds a knowledgeable seller. Simply lowering the price until you find a willing buyer is not the same. There is a price at which someone will buy it knowing they can resell it for a profit, and they will buy quickly at that price.
