    You should do the shipping video, and please show how to properly pack guitars and amps. Also, thank you for showing the reverb filter showing previous sales, I had no idea that existed but that’s super helpful.

    Yes to the shipping video. Another idea for the series: get permission with a trusted repeat buyer to document what a sale done right looks like from all angles.

    It would be cool to see you pack items for shipping. Where to get boxes, packing supplies etc… thanks dude

    • @tj1486
      @tj1486 8 дней назад

      That stuff can get pretty expensive. I've dedicated a side of my shed to keeping old boxes just for those reasons. Ups stores will usually pack for like 30-40 though and in my experience do a great job. Buying labels though there are way better options through websites like shipstation or pirate ship.

    Oh man gear addiction and shopping for gear can truly cause you anxiety. Im glad ive put those days behind me somewhat. Im happy with my one amp, about 4 guitars and done. I had so many amps and guitars i never knew what to play. It’s kind of funny but gear addiction can truly make you sick. Lol

  • @henryknowles583
    @henryknowles583 7 дней назад +1

    Hey Kyle, I’m trying to sell an 8 string and don’t have much experience with that, so the shipping video would definitely be helpful. Thanks!

  • @derekdamager7928
    @derekdamager7928 8 дней назад

    Yep. Great idea for another video… shipping. It could even be a series, “Shipping Saturdays” or something. You could even just ramble on a random topic or do a couple faqs while tasking on camera with shipping materials. Especially if it can be edited to like a 5-10 min video, I bet a lot of people would tune in for that

  • @Qwik14
    @Qwik14 8 дней назад +1

    Honestly as a buyer I just want a brief description of wear or recent repairs made, if trades are acceptable, if price is negotiable, local pickup or delivery, and why you're selling it. All the specs I can look up myself.
    As a seller, for pricing it depends on how much you're willing to lose and how fast you want it off your hands.
    Also Craigslist in my area is quite active. Not as easy as marketplace since they still use email to communicate, but nowadays people have their email on their phone so usually you get a quick response. Sometimes I find a gold mine on Craigslist. It all depends on your area.

    It's a great time to buy a used guitar. The market is flooded with them and prices are coming down. I watched one go from 2K to 1K over a year and then bought it.

  • @Anthoniexg

    I do all this just for some one to ask “is this still available” smdh

    • @ThePhantomnaut
      @ThePhantomnaut 7 дней назад

      Worse when you put the description “will not respond to that” and they don’t read.

  • @tj1486
    @tj1486 8 дней назад

    Kyle i did not know about the sold listings filter, that is cool, but do you ever use the price guide? Also, really handy which is kind of in a wonky spot, but if you click a product and go to the product information that's below the seller's ad, there's transaction data down toward the bottom of that page. Gives you a nice little chart. Most guitars & amps now that are common enough have these cool little product pages.

  • @southernpanda33
    @southernpanda33 8 дней назад

    Idk why but I’ve never had a problem moving gear. It might be that I don’t respond to the “Is this still available?” Messages. If they were interested enough to purchase it, they would’ve asked more than just that.

    • @younkinjames8571

    From my last experiences selling, everybody on every site insisted on haggling a few extra hundred. Placing the word firm after prices did fuck all for me.

    • @belligerentamateur

      Oh for sure, but at least you can point back to it in your listing when they ask

  • @gravelrocks5588

    Great video do you also use ebay or reverb and if not why...all i get on market place is people asking for trades

    • @belligerentamateur
      @belligerentamateur  8 дней назад +1

      I mentioned this in the video. I hate selling on those platforms as they seem to be full of people trying to rip off sellers any way that they can. It’s just better to sell either locally or on marketplace all together

    • @gravelrocks5588
      @gravelrocks5588 8 дней назад

      @belligerentamateur i've had like seven amps on marketplace for quite a while now and only got a few hits asking for trades.. It's like no one has any money... And I think the prices are reasonable.I keep dropping them.. thanx for the info

    I hate selling anything. Low ballers and resallers suck. Shipping is expensive and the risk of damage items are high. Porch pirates AKA "usual suspects" on top of that.

  • @andrewbecker3700

    This is a comprehensive guide on how to try'n sell guitars that originally came with a case, without the case. But ask the same amount. Or list them for more than new ones are selling for. Then when any amount of hagling is attempted, he just either blows you off, or claims he'll lose on the deal. And that's not good business.
    Right now the used guitar market is in free fall mode. Yet if you offer him even $15 -20 less than he's asking. You won't even get a reply?
    Wonder why he has way too much gear?
    Weird? This kid is spiraling. Have fun!

    • @belligerentamateur
      @belligerentamateur  8 дней назад +4
