Garage Sale Tips
Sellers: Find stuff that you do not want or will never use several weeks before the garage sale. Put it aside. If you didn't use it before the actual sale, you most likely won't need it in future.

Garage Sale Pricing

This guide will help price items for a garage sale or yard sale. Most items should be priced 10%-30% of the original price. Of course, when pricing an item, you should take into account its condition, popularity and any other important factors. This is just a general guide to help approximate garage sale pricing.

Garage sale tip: if you have any expensive items (over $100), it is always a good idea to put the price slightly higher than what you expect someone to buy it for; that way, if you face a bargain, you will most likely stay satisfied after the item is sold. Do not push the price too high for the customer might get scared away.
