Tired of the Hassle of Selling Large Furniture and Other Items? Read On!
There comes a time in most people’s lives when they need to get rid of things they no longer want. This could look like downsizing an office or home, relocating, upgrading, cashing out… whatever the case, you want to go online to sell furniture, appliances, electronics, art, clothing, etc.
It now comes down to the nitty-gritty of just how you do this. Some of the questions that may be circling around in your mind are…
First, do I even want to take this daunting DIY selling task on myself?
If so, you probably start trying to figure out each of the following:
- What’s the fair market value for my item(s) i.e. what should I charge and what offer should I accept?
- Which of the vast number of selling channels is the best option for me to successfully sell my item(s)?
- What’s the best way to market my item so it sells fast?
- Am I safe doing this i.e. do I want people I don’t know in my dwelling?
- What’s the best way to ship to a buyer?
- Do I have time for this? (Are you working a fulltime job and running a household; do you have even a moment more of precious time to spare?)
Let’s break down some of the biggest questions and look at the best solutions.
Is The Hassle Worth It?
Most of us live our lives on hyper-drive, with every minute of every day booked. Meaning your time is precious. And time is money. In today’s world this is even truer if you’re on a timeline. Finding yourself in a place of needing to get rid of some belongings, helping the parents downsize their home, moving the office to a different location, whatever the situation may be, let’s ask: do you want to deal with the hassle of trying to figure out how to sell all this stuff?!
- How do you price each item?
- Where do you list it?
- How do you take proper photos that will justly the $2,500 selling price for your designer sofa?
- Do you have the time to follow up and answer questions 100 different potential buyers are going to ask?
- Do you know how to ship a 200-pound desk?
- Are you prepared to schedule visitors and “lookie loos” for in your home visits? What about the hassle of all the ‘no-shows’ that come with do-it-yourself selling?
Did you know that it takes an average of four hours of your valuable time to sell one item?
In some cases, the number is much greater. The cost of those hours eats right into the profits of any potential sale.
How Likely Are You To Really Succeed?
Three of the most widely known resale outlets are Craigslist, eBay, and Facebook Marketplace. But, it is also known that people shopping these online outlets are often bargain hunters. That means you will almost always be underpaid when selling your furniture, electronics, and other household items.
Secondly, there is a subset in this market that makes a living off finding undervalued items and vulnerable sellers, looking to take advantage of their naivety and unfamiliarity with the business. Many of those turn around and sell your items for a profit. These professional DIY buyers and resellers, much like stock market day-traders, spend their lives looking to game and beat the system.
And again, it comes back to certainty, time, and safety. Do you have the time to research what your chairs might be worth? And do you feel safe sharing your address or allowing prospectors into your home? What if you live alone? Potential threats are real and should be soberly considered before undertaking any DIY selling situations.
