I'm looking to sell a nice watch but was wondering if it's better to sell here or in the UK?

It seems watches are more expensive here but being less people perhaps not the same opportunity.

Anyone have any experience of this?

Cheers
Matt

not sure on that one, i guess it all depends on what it is.
The shops here sure are not shy anyway, so perhaps better in Oz.

out of interest... what are you selling?

Thanks.

Selling these two, probably going to put them up for sale in both countries as it's not too hard to ship them. They are in Aus though.

While we're at it, they come with the box and papers and are 9 out 10 for condition. wink

I would say UK has a bigger market than here, but then you have supply to contend with affecting price.

The exchange rate is pants at the moment so you might be better selling it here if you can wait for a sale.

I might be interested but of course thats price dependent! PM with an idea of what you want...

I am moving to the UK soon so if you want a cash and part-furniture swap i might well be very interested! you dont need a new sofa, dining room furniture and awesome coffee machine do you?!

Yeah, one of these - Saeco Incanto Sirius:




It was my dads and I 'inherited' it from him after he passed last year. He only had it just under a year, so its just over 2 years old and he paid $1800 for it. I just dont use it and so its in mint condition.

Comes with instructions and a jug smile

Thanks for the replies, I'll do a bit of research on the price, please don't expect a bargain basement but they will be priced to sell.

Pommegranite, We're sorted for furniture and coffee machines but hope you can get everything sorted before you head back. You don't fancy staying then?

For anyone who's interested, my 2004 Mitsi Challenger is also up for sale - looking for upwards of $10k. It's done about 140k kilometres and is in good nick - Oh and it's got an LPG conversion smile

Well i think about $650 is reasonable but happy to discuss what might be mutually acceptable. Might even throw in a nice salmon coloured tie. Would suit your earrings perfectly wink

Glad you're all ok and thanks. I would stay but family issues send me back. I'll be back to retire here though thats for sure.

Could ship it if required. Dont think its too expensive but appreciate its a hassle. Open to ideas if you are smile
