See I always want to price my yard sale items and family argues I’m wasting my time I’m like no I’m not resellers and ppl like to see prices on items -for they don’t like asking. I have so much stuff. 2- 27 ft truckloads in my moms plane hanger on her farm that we call the front Bldg and then I have a 10x20 unit waisting $$ paying on it. I’m just going to put stuff in boxes and mark the boxes with prices. Just way too much stuff to price unless we are talking about my Amazing coke cola clock my step dad gave me amongst some other valuables that will need prices.

You Nate are missing the whole point of selling at a yard/garage sale. Sales is all about asking. Even if it is marked there is nothing wrong with asking about a lower price. Sellers can always say no or come back with an offer. If they do not like to haggle they should not be doing a yard sale. And eBay prices are only for online selling, not in yards. Kevin is not being rude. He just asks,. That is what a true yard sale is all about. If folks want more for their items they should just sell it online. No one is going to give you online pricing in a yard. Yard sales are supposed to be all about cheap prices. Kevin is smart and knows his prices to resell.
