You would not recieve full retail value for your knives,but you would be able to sell all at once,recieve payment in full,and be done. No EBay fees,no shipping Costs,no waiting for each…"
Ron James replied to Ron James's discussion Selling knives.. separate or in sets?"Haven't given much thought where to sell them, I've always bought and sold on Ebay, but with their fees now you lose about 10% of your selling price.
If I knew what they would be worth I would just list some here, but with such knives I…"
"I'm a pattern buyer too, but often buy other knives I like. How were you planning on selling them? They sell knives on this site and there's always Ebay."
Ron James replied to Ron James's discussion Selling knives.. separate or in sets?"That's what I was thinking.. tho didn't think about pattern buying. Thanks for the thoughts."

"Well Ron, I have never bought a set of knives, I know there are people that do and thats fine but if you want the most the knives will bring I think selling them one at a time should get you the most money."
