17 Best Places to Sell Used Appliances for Cash (Near You)

3. Be honest about the condition of the appliance

When creating your listing, make sure that you’re honest about the condition of the appliance – people don’t like having their time wasted.

Jadi, if the appliance has scratches, for example, then make sure to state that in the listing. And, be honest about how much use it’s had as well.

If you’re a couple, without kids, then you probably won’t have used the washer as often as a family of four.

People like to know the condition and history of an item before they buy it, so be honest and you’ll be more likely to get that final sale!

And, even if the item is heavily used, you can still spin it into a positive. Sebagai contoh, you could say “it’s held up for 10 years of heavy use, in a household with four kids!”

4. Let customers know if you’ve added anything new

If you’ve replaced anything on the appliance you’re selling, then make sure to let potential buyers know about that too.

This will help you to sell the item quicker.

And, if the item is old, it helps you to put a better spin on it.

Sebagai contoh, you can say that the item has withstood heavy use and you’ve only had to replace one part.

Generally, people are more likely to buy an old item, if they know you’ve recently replaced parts on it.

Jadi, make sure that you mention any type of upgrade or recent repair in your listing.

5. Include dimensions in your listing

Don’t forget to put the dimensions of the appliance in the listing, as people want to know whether the item will fit in their home.

Also, list the weight of the item.

This information can help potential buyers to decide whether or not to make the drive and buy your appliance.

6. Don’t forget to list your location

A lot of people don’t want to drive too far to get appliances, whereas other people are willing to drive further.

Make sure you specify your location so people know whether or not they want to drive to buy your item.

7. Link to useful resources

This is something that can really set your listing apart from others.

In your listing, include links to information and reviews online about the appliance you’re selling.

If the appliance has good reviews online, this can encourage buyers to purchase your item.

And, buyers will appreciate you giving them additional information, which again, encourages a sale!

8. Talk about your own positive experiences with the appliance

Things like the product’s dimensions and color are great and need to be in your listing.

Tapi, people also like to know about personal experiences, rather than just specs.

Jadi, highlight features that you found beneficial.

Was the dishwasher pretty quiet? Jika begitu, then include that in your listing.

Think about what advantages you feel the appliance has that maybe other appliances don’t, and how it helped you – maybe it saved you time or money?

Maybe the washing machine offers a wide range of wash cycles, including mini cycles, making it perfect for those with families, or who are short on time.

9. Tell people why you’re selling

“If this is such a great item, why is he/she selling it?”

Most of us who buy and sell stuff on Craigslist (or elsewhere for that matter) have wondered about that.

And that’s a legitimate concern, which is why it is very important to explain to potential buyers why you’re selling the appliance in your listing.

You could say something like, “only selling, as we’re downsizing and the refrigerator won’t fit in our new space,”

“Or, need to sell because we’ve expanded our family and need a bigger dishwasher.”

Think about why you’re selling and let the buyer know.

10. Check similar items when pricing the appliance

If you list a washer from a brand for $500, when other people are selling a similar appliance for $300, then yours isn’t likely to sell. And, you don’t want to short-change yourself by pricing the items too low either.

That’s why it’s a good idea to check on Craigslist to see how much similar items are selling for.

11. And, consider whether you’re willing to negotiate on the price

Once you’ve chosen the price you want to sell the item for, think about whether you’d be willing to negotiate.

You might just be flexible with the price, as you want to get the item out of your home, or your item might not be in that high demand, so it doesn’t sell as quickly as you want it to, and you might have to lower the price.

Jadi, consider what you’d be willing to drop the price to before you put up the listing.

It’s always best to put your highest price (of course, in keeping with what other similar items are selling for), and then if the buyer tries to haggle, then you have room to negotiate.

You can even put phrases, like “or best offer,” next to your sale price if you’re flexible with your prices. If not, then just list your sale price. People like getting a good deal, and they don’t want to pay a price that’s too close to the amount that they could buy it new.

12. Respond to potential buyers quickly

When a person contacts you about your listing, make sure that you get back to them quickly.

Buyers don’t like waiting around, so are more likely to purchase from sellers who get back to them quickly.

Jadi, on your listing, make sure you include a method of contact that you check often. It’s no good using an email address that you rarely check. Make sure when you’re selling to check for potential messages, as if you’re quick with your responses, you’re more likely to make that sale.
