Items from audiophile's estate, list and photos link provided; helpful advice appreciated!

@foxwaves also consider interest already voiced here since we know the context. The fees are a little higher here, unfortunately. Direct links to your listings on this thread may be beneficial. 

US Audio Mart would also be encouraged before eBay. For the smaller or less valued items, Facebook Marketplace or even Craigslist may be good options - I’ve had a lot of success lately on Craigslist for whatever reason. 

This next piece may be controversial, but if I were in your situation and were selling low, I would consider accepting only PayPal Friends and Family - this reduces your liability as a seller and takes PayPal out of the equation if a dispute occurs. You’d be selling items as-is with no returns while also being transparent that you have not tested the equipment. Because of those reasons, you are selling low while also ensuring that the buyer understands the risks when making an informed decision.

And I know you know, but if selling in-person always take a partner or use a public space. 

Thanks toro3, that's all good advice and appreciated. I'll do as you suggest when I have some items ready with prices for individual sale. I've never used US Audio Mart but will certainly check it out, too. 

I agree about Paypal Friends & Family, too. That said, I sure wouldn't want anyone to be dissatisfied with their purchase, and that might be tough when selling by mail. I'll be sure to explain that the items are untested, and sold only as parts only/non working or something similar. While all the gear could probably benefit from some TLC, my guess is most is in fair to good working condition with the exception of some of the obvious partial R2R units. There's no profit at all in this for me, it's just for my friend's final expenses. While I want to take care of this with his best interests in mind, I also want whomever gets one or more bits of his gear to be very happy. 

Thanks again for your thoughts! I'll keep them in mind. Have a nice week!

i am interested in the tascam cd recorder. 

Hello jazzguy43,

Thanks for your interest. When I get the items priced to list individually instead of as a lot, I'll PM you the price on the Tascam. Have a nice day!

Call your local dealer and ask them if they can help you price out the items.  Trade in value versus current retail value.
