Re: Difficulty in selling my CPAP

When people start with too high a price, it is pretty much assumed that any realistic price will be considered low ball. So no point in offering. You end up turning people away. Try lowering your price to what you think is the reasonable and fair price that you are willing to accept. Don't make peo...

Re: Difficulty in selling my CPAP

You need to be open to negotiation over price; Your likely market is likely to include frequent travelers who may want a second machine for travel, but who will have to self-pay. I am open to negotiations over price without question, that's what I've been saying all along. All that the person has t...

At this point..it really doesn't matter a whole lot. Last time I shipped a machine internationally it was around $60 US...give or take a lit...

Re: Difficulty in selling my CPAP

I know but I'm open to offers. I have the receipts of what I paid for it all. I factored in the hours of usage which is a little over 1000 hours, and took off a good bit. You also have to remember that the price of everything that I have put up on iOffer INCLUDES delivery to America and Canada in th...

I never heard of anyone using it much, I don't see anything CPAP related even listed. I'll look into it.

They buy used machines.

I know they do, they offer very little for the machine though. But would sell it on the market for quadruple the amount they give for buying. They also don't take in Nasal Pillow or the Full Face Masks.

Difficulty in selling my CPAP

So I have a Auto-CPAP machine and masks that I got in January, but given that my medical needs have changed. I know longer need what I have. However as many people may also have experienced the sheer difficulty in trying to sell them is very very hard. I have put it up on iOffer, and recently on EBA...
