Be careful pricing vintage items for garage sales. That old piece of junk could be worth $1,000,000!!
Pricing items for garage sales can be daunting. Price them too high and buyers won’t buy. Price them too low, one just might be losing a great sum of money. Especially if selling old paintings.
There is no end to what one might buy at a garage sale. Everything with a value of just a few pennies, or, what could possibly be worth several thousands of dollars.
When having a garage sale that includes possible items of high value always check and double check to be sure items of high value do not get sold for just a few dollars.
On the other hand, if one is shopping at a garage sale, always be aware that some items, especially artwork, may be worth a lot more than the asking price.
One British buyer bought 5 paintings for $5.00. When he wanted to reframe one of them, he found an old sketch hidden behind the exterior painting. The sketch was valued at a possible $1,400,000!
When selling an old painting, remove the painting from the frame to be sure there are no hidden surprises that could be worth a fortune.
HAVE A GREAT GARAGE SALE!
