How can I sell a knife on here?

[methadoneman]

I only have a handful of knives to sell but the only offer I have received was a low-ball offer. I need to sale my knives. Is there anything I can do to sell faster besides lowering my price or to get more eyeballs on my knives or do I just have to wait until that right person comes along who is wanting a knife like I am selling? I welcome all advice.

My $0.02 for what it’s worth:

• Pictures speak 1,000 words and lighting is the key to good pictures. Your phone will create amazing photos with the right lighting.

• Describe how the blades open and close and whether they have half stops. If the blades have any play or they are sloppy, describe what you feel so potential buyers know what they’re getting.

• Remove the accept offers and list it at your willing-to-accept price. This way you’re not hit with low balls and everyone knows your bottom price not your top price.

• Look at sold listings on AAPK and look at their pictures, descriptions, shipping strategies and prices and try to create your own listing template from one that you like.

It’s a bit like fishing, you need the right bait for the fish your trying to catch but it’s almost always a waiting game. Hang in there!

Thank you and I will try to incorporate some of those things into it

Selling knives is much more a waiting game than anything. Good photos will also sell faster than anything else. If photos aren’t higher quality and detailed, I’ll assume a seller is hiding something or isn’t motivated. You might also be selling knives that the average buyer just isn’t interested in. It happens. Good luck moving your blades.

I know that the two stag Cases I sold on another site went within one day. But that's a stag handled Case, they are as good as having gold in your hand.
