Rare Apples, eBay, Goodwill

I did offer some pricing suggestions. My biggest suggestion is to try and sell all of it, or at least a larger percentage than is currently done. Almost all of it should sell, at the right price. If there is error in the price it should be on the low side, not the high side, because the goal is too sell it, not have sit, and the only cost that needs to be covered is the handling cost. I just don't think a price guide is practical due to the volume that Goodwill sees, besides the other drawbacks I mentioned before. To someone outside the realm of classic computers the tendency will be to try and use the guide all the time, not use it at all, or mis-apply it. Using the guide all the time, can mean that if it's not in the guide, then it gets tossed, which would be a bad thing. I agree with you, in that it's not rocket science, but I don't think the application of a price guide would be done effectively, at Goodwill. I could be wrong, but from what I see locally, it's what I think. I do realize you are trying to help, and I appreciate your suggestions and input. You obviously don't want all the goodies tossed out either! It's just that I disagree with your suggestion of a price guide :-) Something else that David could try, would be to get a copy for himself, and right down a summary, in the form of a sheet or two, that each stores uses to price things, computer related. Like a quick reference sheet. It wouldn't be all inclusive, obviously, but I think it would get used more often than a book, yet not be taken as law, either.
