help with selling value on some parts

[benlui]

This is not an add, i just need advise on the pricing for some things as im not sure if there worth holding onto.
2 lewmar winches (not self tailing) to suit boat 27-32ft 10 years old in good condition,
plastimo roller furling (drum only) 2 years old great nick
main sail (50% batten) for shipman 28 or similar
How much would one expect to get for the items? please do not contact me as they are not for sale, only for discussion......many thanks

You will need to give the exact size of the winches to get an estimate on their value. Some 32 foot boats are underwinched so I can't guess what size they are... Have a look on e-bay 'completed auctions' for a similar sized winch and you might get some idea.

The furling drum is worth more to someone who happens to just want that particular model. Try finding out how much a new one is and then ask about half?

The sail is not worth very much - but try looking at the various 2nd hand sail websites and find something to compare it with. No more than a couple of hundred pounds would be my guess.

If you're not sure of the value of something eBay usually works a treat. It's a self correcting system in the sense that if you listed an item with a starting price of £10 and it was actually worth £120, you'll find that in 99% of situations it'll come out fairly close to that... Just watch Raymarine E120 displays... They always seem to go for £1200 - £1300 when listed in the auction format regardless of the starting price.
