Members drunkinminer Posted October 25, 2010 Members Share Posted October 25, 2010 Find a kid in town in need of a guitar but can't afford one and just give it to him. JMTC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Mechanoized Posted October 25, 2010 Members Share Posted October 25, 2010 How about a local shop? I've been considering taking my LTD into Dipinto guitars to see what they'd take it for. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members headless Posted October 25, 2010 Members Share Posted October 25, 2010 I just find it funny that last week there was a thread about not being able to find MIM Strats for 250$ Good call, I remember that thread. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members samtheman8 Posted October 25, 2010 Author Members Share Posted October 25, 2010 By the way did Rudy buy your other guitar? I believe so. Sold it to a guy named Rudy but didn't seem to know you. Dunno. Maybe an identity switch or something Thanks for the tips on the ad. I do have a trem arm for it. I'll keep all your tips in mind. Lets hope for some good ju-ju cause someone called about it. First time buyer which I think kind of hurts me in this case because he won't know the kind of deal he is getting. I appreciate all the feedback on the ad. Didn't really think there would be that much. As for the *Do not reply without numbers* or whatever statement, I see both points. I think it's best to do that though because I have always gotten deals done by attaching numbers or having them attach theirs. Again, its to weed out some "lookers." I guess I'll update and see how this goes. Hopefully I'm -1 guitar, +$$$ by tonight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members clay sails Posted October 25, 2010 Members Share Posted October 25, 2010 Sell your ad using Craigslist. Write in ALL CAPS!!! Make sure to say that it feels and sounds KILLER!!! Its the GREATEST GUITAR you've EVER played, even though you've only played it twice before placing it in a CLIMATE CONTROLLED VAULT. (Or you can just knock the price down to $225.)

Members Steadfastly Posted October 25, 2010 Members Share Posted October 25, 2010 If I'm asking questions, I'm serious. The questions come from poorly worded or vague ads.I find it helps sales to limit things that might cause a potential buyer to hesitate. Part of selling is answering questions. Sales don't begin with "I'm in my car with cash and I desperately need your exact address so I can hand it to you." They begin with an interested potential buyer who usually has questions that, when answered, will possibly push them towards buying your product. I realized that you were the serious type. However, for every serious type like yourself, there are at least 10 time wasters. I like to weed them out right in the beginning. I always, and I repeat, always sell what I advertise and never has it taken me more than 3 days. However, each to his own. I know what works for me and obviously you have your reasons for doing things the way you do. Regards, Flip. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members straycat113 Posted October 25, 2010 Members Share Posted October 25, 2010 Hey leave all the sellers who take dark horrible pictures, do not list special features and have 0 feedback ratings alone, as that is how I scored the 3 greatest dead mint buys on ebay with all being CS axes.
