skerper1970 Posted June 10, 2013 Share Posted June 10, 2013 Hi, obviously I'm new to this site. I have some complete, used, sets that I am considering selling and I was wondering if I would be better off selling them assembled or disassembled. The sets are very clean and showing them assembled really highlights it. Thanks in advance for your help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blackjack Posted June 10, 2013 Share Posted June 10, 2013 I don't really understand. If you have built it, there would be no sense taking it apart and taking pictures. Are you talking about how to ship them? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skerper1970 Posted June 10, 2013 Author Share Posted June 10, 2013 Sorry I wasn't clear. I don't know if buyers of used sets would rather have them assembled or disassembled when they receive them. I'm new to this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anakinisvader Posted June 10, 2013 Share Posted June 10, 2013 Both. I have sold assembled and unassembled. It's best to take the picture assembled and then decide if you want to ship it assembled or not. Most of the time I state that the set will be disassembled when shipped.

Blackjack Posted June 10, 2013 Share Posted June 10, 2013 Well, it would be cheaper to ship disassembled, and I think that buyers expect to recieve sets this way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grolim Posted June 11, 2013 Share Posted June 11, 2013 I always take a pic of the actual set I'm selling assembled, the take it apart for posting as shipping is cheaper that way. Usually buyers want to have the building experience for themselves as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hepcatpunk Posted June 11, 2013 Share Posted June 11, 2013 Local pickup, a la Craigslist---keep intact so buyer can see that it's all there. Ebay and others, take a pic showing it's assembled, ship disassembled. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
