Maybe if you find anymore hide rugs for a song you could sew up a few new seats yourself?

To sell them I'd take some good photos of the pieces and place ads on craigslist. If you wan't to liquidate them quickly you might want to take the average price of what you found sold on eBay and cut that in half. If you want top dollar, you'll have to spend some time waiting for just the right person to see your ads. You just have to find the sweet spot between getting less money and waiting forever to sell them. BTW, I'd meet buyers in a public place since these will be easy to take in a car with you, just to be safe.Mr. Modtomichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16804031065414619749noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6668802457367853649.post-33127681724449041442013-09-05T22:47:28.362-05:002013-09-05T22:47:28.362-05:00CT, thanks for such a great post!

They have some sentimental value to me, but I am not a very sentimental person. How do you suggest I go about determining their value and possibly selling them? I live in the San Francisco Bay Area. Thanks for your thoughts!Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17893690805340325958noreply@blogger.com
