To split up or job lot????

keithdc

Hi folks,

Looking for a bit of advice....

I am going to list some bedroom furniture on ebay tomorrow- a dressing table, 2 bedside tables and chest of drawers on a 'buyer collects' basis.

Am I best to split it up or sell as job lot? I doubt it will go for much- its 1980s white furniture style- more interested in getting rid of it than cash value!

Thanks- any advice much appreciated

Definately split up, your more likely to get more money for it, if people are picking it up theres no worry with p+p sopeople will usually 'view other items' just rmember to mention in your listings that you are selling other similar items and to look...

Split it up. I'm watching a set of living room furniture, but it has a fireplace which I don't want, which is putting me off buying because I'd then have to get rid of it somehow. If it stays a low enough price that it's worth it just for the bits I want then I'll buy it, but I think he'd have got more selling them individually.

Agree, split it up, but put the biggest/most desiriable item first. That way someone may buy the first item them buy the others as they are coming anyway.

Its probably better to split it up but I had some odds and ends to sell and none of them sold seperately but then I sold them as one lot it sold. It was about 6 items. Furniture and white goods. Someone might buy it to split up and sell on.

If you are more interested in getting rid may I suggest your local freecycle?
It can be out of your way for as soon as you want it gone
