A tactic that worked very well for my mother who had an antique shop in the very high-traffic town of Newburyport, MA was if a nice piece of antique furniture sat in her shop for more than a few months she would change the price tag to double the amount she had been asking before.... within a week or so it would sell, without fail.
Maybe it was because word got around... "Oh that Grace Romig - better buy it now if you like it because pretty soon you won't be able to afford it."
