Selling Watches other than ROLEX

I have a few watches I have not worn in awhile because of my love for my Rolexes...they are not considered high end but quality watches in my opinion none the less....Tag Carrera, Omega speedie, Omega seamster (Bond), Oris, Omega speedy limited production Schumacher, Tag Steve Mcqueen Limited Production, etc...everywhere I post no bites, I don't think my prices are to high, but I also am not going to give them away...any suggestions on best way to sell...Thanks

Possibly just the state of the economy & people saving for Christmas....

but are you open to international sales as well?

When I was in Houston a few weeks ago because of my sister in law in Hospital with cancer ....but thats another story....anyway went to a pretty reputable used Rolex, Patek....high end watches and Omega dealer etc.
He offeded 450 bucks for my auto elec blue seamaster and 100.00 for my wifes TT Deville Omega so 550.00 for both. I told him "you are F***ing joking the gold in the TT deville is worth 1000 1200" and walked out.
And I just got the seamaster back for service 6 weeks ago....its looks brand new

It is a buyer's market right now, did you try posting them up here or on timezone?

sell here, i guess. and i agree, it's a seller's market, be realistic. maybe you should go to some brick and mortar operations first to test market value. good luck!

If you've got your "Ebay wherewithal about you" then it's an Ebay auction 10 day, no reserve, ending on a Sunday evening. Plenty of pictures and a good honest description.

That will determine ACTUAL market value, good or bad.

Joe, if you do not need the money buy a safe and put them away or get a safe deposit box and put them in the bank!!!
