Sell Your Gear
We are a business and also need to make a dollar, so our expert and professional staff will assess your instrument or audio gear, research a reasonable and current market selling price and negotiate a fair purchase price with you. Items are assessed on a case-by-case basis, and we take into consideration things like market demand, condition, age and any likely cleaning, repairs or servicing we may need to invest.
Please do not expect an offer based on the top selling price you ‘researched’ on Ebay or Marketplace. This is not what we can offer. However, we endeavor to make your sale fair, quick & easy, hassle free and offer fast payment to you. If you’re wanting more, perhaps consider our Consignment option.
Consignment
We offer consignment on instruments and audio gear and handle all the details of selling your preloved gear on your behalf. This is a great option for trying to achieve a higher market price. However, consignment selling can take some time and is not a sure guarantee of a sale or achieving the agreed sale price. Our staff will help you determine a likely and reasonable selling price with the aim to achieve market value and/or a quick sale.
We will commit to displaying, promoting, caring for and selling your item with the same level of expertise and pride as we have with every other product in the store. You can be sure your instrument is in the right hands with people who can sell instruments.
Please read the T&C’s associated with consignment items.
