To All,
A friend who isn't so familiar with the internet has asked my help to sell a few firearms and knives.
I will take some pics and post on INGO for him.
I collect the C&R stuff so I know what collectors look for there.
For hunting rifles what should I focus on? What will those interested in buying want to see?
He also has some higher end (as I understand it) knives he wishes to part with. What information would potential buyers be looking for in the post? Also, any special area of the knife that I should try to focus on in the pics?
What is the usual and customary way to value a knife? He knows what he paid for them 20 or 30 years ago but doesn't know how to put a fair value on them for today? I don't think these have been used, rather they were bought as a collectable and kept in a case. I could be wrong but that is what I am thinking.
He is a hunter who is trying to clean out some old firearms and other stuff that he isn't using anymore. He has given me five (5) black powder weapons in the past and the least I can do is help him with these. I just want to help the best I can.
Any input or other thoughts would be appreciated!
I will probably have these posted in the appropriate WTS section within a week.
Thank you in advance for your help.
Regards,
Doug
