ENTIRE SYSTEM NEEDED TO SELL


My husband, Fred Parsons, was a long time member or Audiogon. He recently passed away and I would like to sell his entire system. Can someone tell me the best way to do this.  I want to sell the entire lot, rather than in pieces.  He was a perfectionist and everything is well maintained and in great shape.  Thanks for any help.

Hi may your loved RIP. 

Above advises to sell  locally are great and most useful. If you find high-end store in your area or at reasonable distance of travel, you're likely be successful to consign equipment. I would not 'slice' more than 20% for them. Some of them would like to have 35...50% and they are indeed crooks. Do NOT explain them your situation!! It will only trigger buyer to take an advantage! I would rather keep silent and just ask them if they would like you to consign equipment to them yes-no-hi-bye. 20% on equipment that's worth let's say $20,000 is descent steak for the store and I speak from the retailer's stand point.  So call around and do 'shopping' to choose the best and most honest dealer in the area or within reasonable distance.
 
Internet-eBay-PayPal- etc are not safe unless you use some precautions: 
1. Do NOT sell entire system and list your items separately. Large amounts are harder to deal with in internet transactions especially if your internet selling account is new
2. verify PayPal with money-card purchased from WalMart or ordered via internet such as accountnow.com. These cards are pre-paid and provide you with bank info legit enough to connect with PayPal and get verified. Withdraw funds IMMEDIATELY after they become available.
