    Default Helping A Friend Out - Any help with pricing these please as a job lot?

    Hi,
    As the title suggests, a friend of mine, whose Father has a lot of stuff requires sale of these items.

    I suggested prices based on eBay completed listings but they would rather sell the lot in one go!

    Can anybody help with this, just to give a ball park figure as I believe some of this gear is fairly desirable? Alternatively suggest a dealer who would offer a fair price, not E******m as they have asked me not to contact them, personal reasons I believe.

    There are 3 items without photos as these items are in the friends house, rather than his Father's house where I took them.

    THE LIST:


    Linn LP12 Transcription Sondek Turntable

    Naim NAP SA

    Alphason HR-100 MCS arm with Ortofon MC10 Supreme cartridge

    Goldring Lenco GL72 Turntable 16, 33, 45 & 78 speeds & comes with several different head-shells.

    Thorens TD 125 MKll Turntable

    SME Series lll Arm with spare arm

    SME Series ll arm

    Naim Nac 32.5 Pre Amp

    Naim Nap 140 Power Amp

    Celestion Ditton 66 Speakers (With Original grills but cabinets need a refresh) - tweeter replaced a while back.

    Realistic Stereo Frequency Equaliser

    Techics ST GT650 Tuner

    AKAI HXA3X Cassette Deck

    Sansui Integrated amp AUG30X

    All items are loved and used; certainly they have signs of use and some marks here & there and probably could do with a service but have been handled by a Gentleman who cherishes Hi-Fi.

    I was told that all items were working as they should at the time they were shelved, some a couple of years ago, others longer.

    Thanks in advance...
    Ade

    If you do an advanced search on eBay you can see sold listings which will give you a decent idea of worth (in my view) for each item. I guess you could expect 2/3 of the total for a job lot.

    Thanks for that Martin. Would you think that would be from a dealer who obviously wants to make their mark up too or just an enthusiast?

    My feeling is that you will struggle to sell the lot as one unless you deal with a dealer experienced in low ball offers. The only bits that strike me as ‘of value’ and that is the turntables, alpahson arm andNaim bits.

    I'd be inclined to cherry pick out the best stuff and sell it individually if u can at reasonable prices. Then sell rest as a job lot to whoever wants it

This is the supreme test. It is the glory of Lincoln that, having almost absolute power, he never abused it, except on the side of mercy".

    “You see these dictators on their pedestals, surrounded by the bayonets of their soldiers and the truncheons of their police ... yet in their hearts there is unspoken fear. They are afraid of words and thoughts: words spoken abroad, thoughts stirring at home -- all the more powerful because forbidden -- terrify them. A little mouse of thought appears in the room, and even the mightiest potentates are thrown into panic.”

    I'd say that's roughly what you could get selling it all individually on forums. As a job lot to a dealer I don't know but it will be less than that unless you get him drunk first

    That's rather an odd collection, and I agree with Mark, that only certain items would sell readily (decks, arms, Naim). However, unless they are in good saleable condition with some kind of provenance, it'd be tricky getting anywhere near 'market' price. As sales on the forums (well, certainly pfm) have been very slow for some time (there's even a thread about it), either pricing to sell regardless or taking a hassle punt on Ebay seem to be the most viable options, i.m.o.

    Don't think you've got a snowball's chance in Hell of getting anything but peanuts for a job lot, as some of those items are of boot sale/charity shop status. Maybe cherry pick, then find an outlet for the rest.
