It depends on what it is you are selling. Anything computer or electronic related depreciates fast. Sell it for what you can get because if it takes 2 months to sell the price may be much lower. If its a gas guzzler... get rid of it before fuel prices go up again, etc. Sort of like business inventory you can't move.... selling it as a loss is a gain if its just sitting on the shelves for months especially since there's inventory tax to consider. If something can be sold as a business asset below the depreciated value there are tax considerations that may be advantageous and/or cash flow considerations.
Anything I buy or sell online through any classified service is always done through Paypal, no exceptions. I want Paypal seller protection and Paypay/credit card buyer protection.
