A friend who was a woodworker recently passed away, and his wife has asked me to help inventory his stuff and price it for sale. None of it is high dollar stuff, mostly benchtop type Craftsman power tools, but there is a nice Craftsman Professional 14" bandsaw and decent Delta 6" jointer. All of it is in very good shape.
I would like to price it so that she doesn't get taken advantage of, but also not so high that it doesn't sell. I buy and sell a lot of fishing tackle, and in that world around 60% of retail seems to be an acceptable price for most decent used stuff. Are tools the same way today? It's been quite some time since I've bought and sold any tools. I'm thinking maybe starting at about 60% with the option to negotiate.
I would appreciate any advice from anyone with experience buying and sell used tools.
Thanks,
Dave
