sell by auction or not?
Hi all,
I am on the precipe of a major decision. I am looking to sell about 30 guns. They range from utility to some nicer guns (include 2-3 Parkers). Condition runs from non-working (utility) to excellent. So, would you sell by auction or on your own? What are the pros/cons?
My current plan, given quantity and the utility nature of many, is to sell as many as possible by auction. I will be keeping several (including 2-3 Parkers). But, maybe i keep a few more of the higher end guns than originally planned if selling by auction is questionable. My concern is setting a good price, finding buyers, etc. I have been referrred by one fo the top decoy auction people to a local auction house that will use proxibid, charge a reasonable commission. I feel comfortable with them for the guns I do send to auction.
