Today, many people change a vacuum cleaner for a new one because of not physical, but only the obsolescence of the previous one. In this case, the old vacuum cleaner can be sold. After that, he will serve the new owners for a long time.
Instructions
Step 1
Before selling a vacuum cleaner, make sure it is fully functional. If it turns out that the device requires repair, be sure to indicate this in the ad, or repair it before selling. In any case, the vacuum cleaner should not pose a hazard to the new user.
Step 2
If you do not care at what price to sell a vacuum cleaner, just to get rid of it, find out if there is a so-called "flea" market in your city. Find one among the weekend for which nothing is planned, and sell it there.
Step 3
Call your acquaintances, find out if any of them need a vacuum cleaner. If there is a buyer among them, sell the vacuum cleaner to him.
Step 4
Take advantage of online message boards. Choose among them those whose administration does not require payment for services. When placing an ad, be sure to pay attention to such aspects as the correct selection of the section, the indication of contact coordinates, the literacy of the text. Do not limit yourself to one site - place ads at once on about ten. Do not forget to periodically "raise" your ad on those boards where this service is free.
Step 5
Vacuum cleaners, produced up to the sixties of the last century, inclusive, are of interest not so much to housewives as to collectors. Place an advertisement for the sale of such a device in an online auction. There are a few different rules here than on message boards. By placing a lot on one auction site, you are deprived of the right to additionally place advertisements for its sale anywhere else. Be sure to correctly indicate in which city the vacuum cleaner is located, how the lot is supposed to be transferred, as well as to which regions you are ready to deliver it, and how. Also indicate how much shipping will cost, if required, and who pays for it: the buyer or seller. Remember that if at least one bid has been placed on a lot, it is prohibited to withdraw it from the auction in order to sell it elsewhere.
Step 6
Perhaps you decided not to sell the vacuum cleaner, but to give it away or exchange it for something. Then use not a bulletin board or auction, but a special site designed to post donation and exchange announcements. Please note that many of these are invite-only registrations. Much more democratic are forums of the same subject, registration in which is carried out in the usual way. Choose the correct section for the topic depending on what kind of operation you want to carry out (donation or measurement), as well as depending on the region.
