FREE Garage Sale Pricing Guide – Organized by Category
Your Free Garage Sale Pricing Guide
This guide will help price items for a garage sale or yard sale. Most items should be priced 10%-30% of the original price. Of course, when pricing an item, you should take into account its condition, popularity and any other important factors. This is just a general guide to help approximate garage sale pricing.
Garage sale tip: if you have any expensive items (over $100), it is always a good idea to put the price slightly higher than what you expect someone to buy it for; that way, if you face a bargain, you will most likely stay satisfied after the item is sold. Do not push the price too high for the customer might get scared away. Also, you can put the item up on a silent auction. Collect the names and numbers of bidders throughout your sale. Call the top bidder when the sale is over.
