Selling Consecutive Serial Number Set
PhilZ:
There is a set of consecutive serial number Elites on Gunbroker, and it looks like the seller didn't reach his reserve price before he relisted them. I wonder if he'd be better off splitting the set rather than trying to find a buyer for two Elites. I have a set of Farmies I'm thinking about selling and I'll probably list them seperately.
ECR:
That's a tough call Phil. . . . . Whether to list them together or separate them.
I'm from the old school of thought I guess:
Offer them as a consecutive numbered "set" first so the enthusiast has an opportunity to, perhaps, pick up a collectible set.
If they do not sell as a set the first time out, then I would sell them individually the very next time around the selling block.
Anyone looking for a set, would be looking in earnest most of the time.
If not, set them up individually and let them rock & roll. lol.
Just my thought on the topic anyway...……….

Good advice. Thanks

You bet Phil.
Good night now...…..

Hello - I am the owner of the pair of Elites with consecutive serial numbers. The initial auction doesn't end until Sunday evening, so they haven't been re-listed. This is the first time they have ever been offered together. I actually bought them separately about 2 years apart and didn't realize they had consecutive serial numbers until I brought the second one home. I agree with ECR and felt like I should initially offer them as a consecutive pair. I owned an Elite that was serial number R2439. I have also seen several sell recently in the 2700 range...including #2792. If approximately 50-80 were made, it is obvious that the production run of Elites wasn't completely sequential. I am curious if ECR recalls how many of the Elite run would have been in a block or sequential. I am just trying to decide what to do if they do not hit the reserve. I hate to break them up if this is a truly rare occurrence. Any help would be appreciated! Thanks.
