Title: How to sell a bow collection?
Post by: Yolla Bolly on August 10, 2020, 05:23:42 PM

Just received a message from a friend in Northern California, asking how to go about the process. Both she and her husband are avid archers, active in their local club. A family member has become disabled by the dreaded diminuation of mental faculties, and leaves this behind.  I’m the old stick bow geezer, so she is asking me how to value and sell the group.  Does anyone have any advice or direction I can send her?

That's not a collection, just a handful of assorted bows. I would get some help ,here, to identify each bow, assess its specs and conditions ,then offer them for sale via the method most appropriate to each bow, e.g which site, consignment, ebay, private connections. There's not that many. If you sell them all at once, you get far less for the valuable / good condition bows because of the junk in the mix.

You can sell in facebook groups or on the bay.
