Looking for advice on selling tools and other climbing gear.

I am looking to thin out some redundant gear, and hoping folks can give an idea of fair percentage savings (reductions to sell).

Brand new clothing with tags ?%
Almost new (worn a couple of times) no tags or marks %?
Used but in perfect usauable nick climbing gear %?

I understand this may seem a bit random but have been messed around in past.

Any tips guidance appreciated, I'm fine with the presenting just pricing.

On the same subject I have a pair of grivel matrix techs used half a dozen times, should I sell them with existing picks or replace with brand new picks and charge more (picks are 35 quid each and I have quantum techs so need to keep a set)

I hope this makes sense and some top sellers give some tips.

Ps I don't mind trolling answers, it's what you is all about lol.

My rough guide for buying and selling is:

Clothes as new with tags = cheapest online -20%
Almost new = cheapest online -30%
Used = cheapest online -50% or more.

Hardwear a bit more as usable for longer/less cosmetic issues/dating.

Sounds fair,and he could also be open to offers.

In reply to Alex Slipchuk:

the above sounds about right and in line with what I would be prepared to pay for 2nd hand gear.

In reply to JayPee630:

Thanks JayPee630, that's exactly the kind of info I was looking for, most helpful.

In reply to Alex Slipchuk:

The percentages above are a good rough guide but ultimately something will be worth what something is willing to pay for it. If you have a bit of time, start high then lower the price on a weekly basis. (Try not to be too regular on reductions in case someone catches wind and waits...)

In reply to Alex Slipchuk:


Give it away.

Why?

I'd rather petition for the removal of trident and the redistribution of wealth towards charities that pay no member of staff over 36k, or the nhs and education.

Also that wasn't what the post was about.
