cali Rough Rock Total Posts: 28 Last Post: 3/28/2006 Member Since: 4/6/2004	i have a used setting i want to sell and someone is interested in it. i need to name a price so i wanted some opinions on what is fair, as i really have no clue at all. its a 1 year old platinum setting by Vatche. I was thinking something like 65% of what I payed. is this reasonable? or far off? should i ask for 25% or 75%? thanks!

Whatever you do - do not polish out the vatche mark. It may walk like a duck, talk like a duck - but without that signature isn't a duck (to the general public). Also, what size head? Is it a popular size head? Is it a popular finger size? All factors into the equation. But, like Hest - I can only go for my gut. If the questions above are answered yes - then I would say 50-65%. Don't think most people will bite at 75%. And, make that number based on the lower price (though it's pretty price fixed) you find & not solely on retail. Best of luck. With things like this - it takes two. Person selling/Person looking.
