price guide for garage sales
Just remember, low prices sell more quickly. When in doubt, go back to Step 1 and remind yourself WHY you are having a garage sale. Then, proceed with your pricing.Items sold for $1 sell much faster than those sold for $5 or more. For the best results, keep your prices in the $1 to $2 range.
Set prices with room to move. Most people expect prices at garage sales to be just the starting price and are about 25% to 50% above the seller's (ie your) bottom-line price to allow for negotiating. The amount depends on the condition of the item and how much you are prepared to haggle.
