Garage Sale Sports & Outdoors Prices: What to Charge
Sports and outdoor gear is popular at garage sales because new equipment can be expensive. Bikes, golf clubs, camping gear and exercise equipment can all sell well when they are clean and in working order. Pump up bike tires, set up a tent if you have room, and keep sets together so nothing is missing. Seasonal demand matters too: camping and bike gear usually sells best in spring and summer.
