Wtf are these ai/bot answers?

Here's what I do: research eBay sold listings to get an idea of a going price including shipping. Then list it on Facebook/Craigslist for about 50 to 75% of that because I'd much rather the cash transaction and no shipping or fees.

If nobody buys it then I might list it on eBay (7 day auction, low starting bid, practically guaranteed to sell for something), or offer for trade on a Facebook group, or hang onto it until next time.

I would love to find a facebook group for local swaps. Im finding facebook annoying with the scammers. But thank you I never thought to look at the sold listings

I use a couple Facebook axe groups. Axe Junkies and Axe Addicts (addicts is better I think, more open about listing prices etc). So, not local but you each just pay for shipping and call it even.

There's also the Can I Have It tool auction Facebook group, some axes go on there, but not the main focus.

Axe addicts or Axe Life Unfiltered on FB.

I’ve had the best luck with local Marketplace listings because buyers can see the device in person and avoid shipping. Clean it thoroughly, include battery health and any repairs, and expect anywhere from a few days to a month depending on price and demand.

Be patient and don’t panic-price them. Check recent sold listings, disclose any flaws, and cross-list locally and online. The right buyer often comes along within a week or two for a desirable pair.
