We so frequently hear stories from our customers about how they were ripped off or sold something for peanuts because they didn't know what they had. Opportunistic lowballers, pawnshops, and less reputable established stores and retailers often take advantage of those who don't possess that knowledge. We have a new high-integrity business model that provides you an professional and transparent way to fairly get what you deserve for your musical gear.
Consigning with GuitarDesires guarantees that you net up to 80% of the market value of your gear and get your cash within a week to ten days! We do it by quickly and professionally selling your guitar and valuable musical gear online for a very high selling price to a national and international market and we charge you a low commission. We do the work and you maximize your return without all the hassle, ripoffs, phone calls, missed appointments, low balls, and other BS of a local sale.
Most know that the pawnshops will generally give you 25% of the market value and the music stores (the honest ones) may give up to 50 or 60%. We offer you up to 80% and sell for more as a top online retailer.
Especially if you're somewhat unsure of what something is really worth, and don't want to risk mistakenly "giving it away", we professionally market it on eBay assuring that you get a fair price and top dollar for your special or vintage pieces.
Since GuitarDesires is a reputable, known, and trusted online store - our auctions get much much more than local craigslist or regular Bay listings that you could create. We do a market analysis that includes extensive research on other "comparable" instruments that have sold, check all the published appraisal price guides, and then apply our knowledge of the overall market to devise and execute a professional marketing plan for your instrument for a fee based commission.
And vintage, unusual, and high value items will nearly always sell for WAY MORE than a local sale or amateur eBay auction when professionally marketed to a larger worldwide audience by an internationally known seller with a top reputation!
It's a quick and professional process. We come right over to meet, look over your gear together, discuss our services, sign a simple consignment contract, and pick up the consignment items. We professionally photograph your instrument, create a beautiful web page/auction listing, and pack your item for shipment in our in our fully secured totally insured facility. We take care of the hassles, answer all the questions, collect the funds, ship the item, - and have the proceeds to you just a few days later.
Our competitive low commission structure provides a sliding scale from 25% to 15% depending on the final sale price of your listing. Even after Paypal and eBay marketplace fees, you will net between 70-80% of the final sale price depending on the final price and auction features you choose. And since our professional listings and world class eBay reputation consistently bring us top prices, you nearly always net more than you would have made in a local sale or amateur eBay sale.
