BroBri Posted July 4, 2021 Report Posted July 4, 2021 Hello my friends. I really wanted to get into scrolling and intarsia. I bought a pegas scroll saw, stand and a whole bunch of Pegas blades. I also bought a foredom lathe with adapters so that I can run the inflatable drums that Judy Gayle Roberts sells. I've run into some health issues plus my daughter/granddaughters bought a fixer mobile that needs a lot of work. My girls have had a rough life and need me. If I'm feeling good I help them. I live in northern California(Red Bluff). I've tried to sell everything I've listed on Craigslist list and FB marketplace for what I feel is a great price. I haven't even got one call. Not even from the Craigslist scammers. Is there a place I can sell it. Are there clubs near by? Should I list in bigger cities. Sacramento CA is 2 hours away. San Francisco is about 3 hours,away. Any ideas? Thanks Brian OCtoolguy 1 Quote
Phil Royer Posted July 4, 2021 Report Posted July 4, 2021 What are the listing prices fore your items. Are you willing to ship the items? If you are not willing to ship, the CL and Facebook areas may be too limited. While I believe the Pegas saw is one of the top models, it may be unfamiliar to the general public. Sone verbiage in the description describing what make it a great saw might help. Have you considered eBay. OCtoolguy 1 Quote

I don't remember which price. Shipping woukd be hundreds of dollars. I don't want to do that. OCtoolguy 1 Quote
OCtoolguy Posted July 4, 2021 Report Posted July 4, 2021 Sounds like a great deal for somebody. I have had very good luck selling on C/L & Marketplace on FB. How you structure your ad is very impotant and be sure to include lots of pics. If you & I were closer, I might even be interested. Best of luck to you & your girls. Quote
nrscroller Posted July 6, 2021 Report Posted July 6, 2021 Hi Try etsy and get a site. My son and wife sell quilt patterns and shelfs and ship all over. Bill OCtoolguy 1 Quote
