Snap On Hard Handle screwdrivers

[DaMaN]

Hi all, will be selling off my used Black Snap On Hard Handle screwdrivers soon and wanted your opinion about selling them on Ebay. I was thinking to ebay them on a Sunday evening to Sunday evening auction, No reserve and wasn't sure what to set the starting bid at. Should I start at 4.99 or should I be daring and start it at .99 to incite alot of watchers and hopefully get the prices up? Shipping will be UPS ground actual costs so probably ~8.00 to most locations and will offer multiple item discounts on shipping. Any pointer from my Ebay pros on GJ?

Keep them, Snap-on's hard comfort grip handles were great, you'll be sorry you got rid of them.

I just got a new set of instincts which I like (yeah I said it) and need the $$$ more than two almost full sets of screwdrivers in my box taking up space. I figured I'd capitalize on the popularity and make some $$ back to feed my tool addiction.

Hmmm pics and pricing? Someone on here might just buy em and save you some ebay fees

Otherwise.. look at other similar ended auctions and see where they started/ended price wise as well as when they were listed and ended time wise. Ebay's option to view completed listings is a great research tool!

Thanks, I have to get a list together and post it here by the weekend, I have used the completed auctions for reference but I see more activity (bids) from the .99 start prices auctions.

Well when I sold my orange set on ebay I started the auction at what I paid for them.
$75.00 for a brand new set and they sold for $228.00
What are the condition? Do you have the tray that goes with them? Those 2 things will effect how much you will get.

Is there much of a savings posting them for .99 vs. 4.99? If so go for the .99 because if they're in good condition you'll get quite a bit either way.

Start em at .99 and let them go after it!!

agreed but I was asking for opinions and wanted the GJ perspective as potential buyers would be more inclined to do.

I think I will. Thanks!

I had to go pee and missed the radiator hose pick...damn

Did you have them for auction as a set or one by one? I often see individual sockets and such go for .99 or even .01 cent. I think selling certain items as sets draws higher bids...others not.

I agree. I think you could have gotten more as a whole set. But what do I know?

 

[DaMaN]

one by one. thanks to all for the interest.

Here is a set of hex drivers I'm selling on there right now. Almost all of them I picked up individually. I'm fairly sure for a fraction of what I will make.

Whats the ebay link; so, we can watch and see what you get for them? Inquiring minds want to know/watch!

 

[kwhitelaw]

DaMaN,

Would you be willing to post up here whatever did not sell? Or a private pm with what you have and would like to get?

Thanks

Kevin
