Work out garage sale pricing instantly with clear inputs, formula shown and shareable results.
Garage sale pricing starts from a condition-based share of the original price, typically 25% for a good used item, reduced a further 5% per year of age and rounded to a convenient figure. Buyers at a garage sale are looking for a clear bargain, so pricing above about 40% of original almost always ends with the item unsold.
