might sell a nice set, checking interest

Post by zinger »

I rarely play face to face anymore, and have a surplus of equipment. I am thinking about selling a nice set I never use anymore. 8.4 mm slate and shell, cherry bowls, and a 2 inch katsura table board (this one virtually unused).

Wondering if this would draw any interest.

I can take some photos and post them, when I get a chance. Was starting by just checking to see if this sort of thing had any demand. Are you at all interested, or just curious?

Can’t say anything before I see pics and know the expected price :-) Oh, and perhaps where you’re shipping from.

a large part of selling anything IS marketing ;) I can't say how many time has I bought things I don't need merely for the look of it :lol:

And how many things do people buy sight unseen? Probably not too many.
Even if you decide not to sell after checking interest, people here are interested to see photos of how nice your set is.

Yes, of course you are all correct, there must be photos. I will try to post some when I get a chance. We have been very busy lately.
