eBay advice

  • I have a pair of wheels to sell on ebay- would I be better off selling them individually or as a pair?

    They are CrossMax SLR's, so I'd like to get as much Dorra as possible!

  • hmmm.

    dunno. maybe as a wheelset? list it very lyrically. fronts tend to go for much less on their own, i think. people like matching wheels too.

  • yep, wheelset definitely.

  • Ok, wheelset it is.
    I was wondering because typically these wheels have a BIN of £450 for the pair, or £275 individually. But obviously you need someone to stump up the readies, which they are probably more prepared to do for a wheelset.

    Thanks for the advice.

  • wheels are going really cheap on ebay at them moment, if u want good money maybe put it BIN

  • Dogsballs- you don't think I'd get £450 for them if I let the auction run?
    They are brand new, never been used, and were available for £579 from chainreaction when they had them in stock.

  • prob not. almost certainly not, but good luck.

  • That would be sub-optimal.

    Maybe BIN would therefore be a better idea.

    Arse.

  • Wheelset.

    But try selling them on online forums first so you can avoid the eBay fees.

  • Roberto- I will take your word on this one, with respect to your wealth of experience.
    What would you price them at if advertising on a forum?

  • Hmm i am not sure, Crossmax, are they the MTB ones, right?

    Check on froogle.co.uk how much shops sells them new, then check on eBay>advanced search to see how much they end for, and make a price based on this and the condition they are.

    But try eBay as well, on tuesday is 5p listing day, which means you can list them with a buy it now price and pay only 5p insertion fee...

  • Froogle price is on average 530-570ish, eBay price is around 450.
    They have literally never been used, so I'll chuck them on the bay for that on Tuesday.
    Thanks for the tip and advice Roberto.

  • go for it, you may as well.

  • i got a pair of mavic cosmic carbones, 1 year old, hardly used for 375, i^ve seen brand new corima carbones go for 550, brand new 1k+

    buyers market

  • i^ve seen brand new corima carbones go for 550, brand new 1k+

    I've seen things you people wouldn't believe. Attack ships on fire off the shoulder of Orion. I watched C-beams glitter in the dark near the Tannhauser Gate. All those moments will be lost in time, like tears in rain. …

  • I've seen Corima carbon wheels go for £424.. brand new.. oh looky here..

  • I have bought a pair of Corima Winiuns for little over £300 - weighs about 30g more than the Hyperons which costs one arm and one leg

  • I think that the CrossMax SLR's are roughly equivalent to the Ksyrium ES's, a pair of which I believe Roberto has for sale currently, a year of use for just under £400?
    Obviously I am taking a punt here, the market will determine there true value, I would prefer however to not lose my trousers on the deal...
