Do you have a Local "Swap Sheet" in your area? We have one around here, you can list anything you want. Cost .50 or .75 to pick up a copy anywhere newspapers are sold.

What's your goal regarding the sale?
Get rid of it fast, or get the most money you can for it? |

Well a new goal in life is to see a cow fly like in your avatar.
But back to the point...if I could get a lot out of it I'd love to but I'd rather sell it in the next week or two if possible. I'm not looking for a sell at any costs though, I've checked the buyback program from budsgunshop and won't go that low. So I'm a little in between |

So I'm a little in between then putting ads out anywhere you can, networking, asking friends to ask their friends if anyone might be interested in it... are all ways to improve chances of selling it quickly at a price you can accept. |

But I was just clowning, never sold one on CL. I'm sure some here have. The consignment idea is good though. |

The gun market (aside from Browning Abolts, Savage bolt guns, and Simmons optics) in midwestern Wisconsin largely consists of me and 3 other guys, so EE and Gunbroker are always my best bet.

Gunbroker. Take lots of pictures, factor in the fee ( not much really , 5% of whatever is under $25, and 2.5% over that )
and if you price it fair, not ultra high like many do ( which will sell in no market, unless you find a dumb ass ) it will sell eventually. |

But to the other suggestions, thanks. I posted an ad on backpage, gunlistings, midwestguntrader, and the EE. I'm still debating gunbroker, I may see if I can get anything on these others first to avoid the fee and the hassle of shipping. Any other suggestions and I'm all ears... |

Carry it around at a gun show. Unfortunately there aren't any in my area until end of June and even then I'll be out of town. Will they buy on the spot or is it more just to make arrangements? |
