FOR SELLING ENQUIRIES SMS US WITH ALL THE INFORMATION REQUESTED BELOW.
PLEASE DO NOT CALL THIS NUMBER!
If you need your item out urgently, we may make an offer on your item or Michael will direct your selling enquiry to one of our regular sellers in your area. In this instance, a wholesale offer will be made (ie. what you’d consider listing it for on Gumtree or Marketplace.)
SELLING UNDER CONSIGNMENT THROUGH iNVISeDGE
If there is no urgency in getting your item out and your item is special, Michael will often offer to personally work with your item when he is next visiting your area. (And then sell it UNDER CONSIGNMENT in his online store. This process will take longer. Your item will also stay with you until iNVISeDGE finds a buyer for it.) In this case, Michael will personally take professional photos of your item AND inspect it in person. There are 2 advantages for you if this happens. A) Professional photos will be taken with no effort on your part, and, B) Because Michael has personally inspected your item, he will confidently know exactly what you have and its condition. This will translate into a much better result for you because all risk will be taken out of the equation for potential buyers (and we will be able to sell your item to buyers worldwide). Michael’s commission fee varies if he personally works with your item. His average commission fee is around 22% – 25%. (The lowest any private seller was charged last year (in 2023) was 22%- for a set of dining chairs he sold for $12,000.)
If you are confident you can get photos of your item close to the standard of other photos in iNVISeDGE with little or no direction, our fee is 18.5% (if it’s something we want to represent). IMPORTANT NOTE! We DON’T accept most Parker items made in late-1970’s or after. We also don’t accept big Parker or Parker-looking display cabinets / units. We no longer accept ANY POST & RAIL furniture OR Norman Archibald dining suites from private sellers.
SELLING AN ITEM through iNVISeDGE
- Take a few quick, CLEAR PHOTOS of what you have in decent light so Michael can see what you have. (Taking photos on your phone is fine.)
- SMS your photos to Michael on 0412 757 348.
- In your SMS, tell us WHERE the item is being stored / currently used (suburb AND postcode), your EMAIL ADDRESS and sign off with your FULL NAME. ALSO, tell us whether or not there is ANY URGENCY in getting your item/s out. (eg. we have sold our house and we’re moving interstate- our house settles in 5 weeks OR we are starting to downsize as we are now retired so there is no real urgency in getting these item/s out of here.)
- We get items offered to us on a daily basis; following these steps gives you the best chance of getting a timely response.
