how do you guys price your set, say... at ebay?
do you try to be competitive and try to be the cheapest? or maybe 3rd cheapest or something alone that line?

sometimes, I find that I'd price it at X bucks, and I am on the 10th, but if I price it at like 2 cents lower, all of a sudden I am the cheapest

depends on the item, I try to keep my prices within the market and reasonable but I'm mindful I'm not losing money. I'm also big on under cutting people. if I want to be the lowest I'll drop my price by .05 of the lowest price. nothing bugs me more than someone under cutting me by $5+ as the next guy will do the same and then there goes the value

I think of a price I'll be satisfied with sometime in the future.  I'll go ahead and list the item at that price and then leave it until it sells.  Sometimes it's 2 minutes, 2 weeks, and sometimes it's 2 years.

good advice.

I wish I would have bought 10 of them when they were around $100.

Yeah, had it at $270 and it sat there for some time.

Me too, but I was just getting started when I got this, didn't know they were so collectible. Won't make the same mistake with the ship.

 

 

Looks like I was able to move my last PotC set as well today, A Whitecap Bay for $85.  Glad that one is gone.

4981 - Chum Bucket along with 9 other sets. I took about 20% less to get them out and clear space.

 

Happy that my Cafe Corner CL lot now has me in the black.  $90 in my pocket plus a Cool Convertible (4993), Cafe Corner and Batmobile set (7781) to keep and 6 sets to sell later this summer for about 150-200 after fees. 

Sold a POTC 4193 London Escape for $48.99+ shipping to a lady in Canada through Ebay GSP. After all the extra charges she paid $94.04. I have 1 left and 2 Whitecap Bays left. After they're gone I'll dig out the smaller POTC and unload them and be done with the theme. Lesson learned....

a spider glider polybag (haven't done the math, but i may break even or at a loss for this set), and the goblin king battle (this set has almost doubled)

My ucs tie Vader 10175

Sold my last 7962. yah!

Sold a SSD for $650. Picked it up for $320 a couple months ago. Buyer has 0 feedback and just signed up on eBay yesterday. Should I be worried?

I've had good luck with "0" feedback buyers. knock on wood...

Sold my last 7962. yah!

 

i was so happy to sell my 2 units even at a slight loss.   The space it occupied on my shelve was well worth the small loss.  I slid 10220 sets in it's place

Sold a small lot of random minifigs.

I was happy to get rid of mine as well.  I sold both of them for $80 each, so I squeaked out a profit, since my buy-in was only $35 each.

Sold my 5884 and 5885 Dino sets (NISB) today. Made a 66% profit. Not to bad at all!

Over the last week I've sold almost 50 pounds of random bulk broken into 5-10 pound lots.

I'm just about to start tackling this.  I've got more and more bulk sitting in my garage that I need to start getting rid of.

 

Are you breaking it down by color as well?
