Shitpost / Memes Where do people unload their stuff

Where abouts do people unload their stuff that they no longer need or want I've tried gunpost and I've recently tried Townpost but I don't seem to have much luck with getting rid of this tacticool 12ga.

If you're not getting any bites on CGN or GunPost you're probably asking too much.

Good rule of thumb for pricing something is 75% of retail if it's in perfect condition. Less if it's not.

Any upgrades are essentially worthless for adding value because most people won't care.

Optics should be sold separately.

Honestly I feel it may be a little more north than the 75 but I have gotten bites just all want to trade for stuff I'm not fully interested but I'm not upset about that because I did say in the add I'm willing to trade

I mean I listed it because I know people would offer lower, and it's not Turkish but it's a fair point, and anyone who's selling a used gun will have taken it apart( or At least should have to deep clean it)

Nothing wrong with posting a firm price and not taking a cent less. I find it’s quite common on Gunpost. Or at least more common than other buy&sells I’ve experienced. Then do regular price drops until it’s gone

I'm also not saying every person will like it, I will say most people like the stock and forend that I do have on it because I have had 4 different people try and purchase just the stock/ forend because they constantly sell out.

Then put the originals back on and sell the gun as is and sell the stock separately. You'll likely make more money this way
