How to Price Items
The minimum price per item is 5 kroner. Items must be priced at increments of 5 kr (5, 10, 15, 20 kr, etc.).
Remember: prices are locked in at 12:00 on Tuesday, 5 September 2017. After that time, it will not be possible to change the prices of your items. The price is in the bar code, so it is not possible to cross out the price and write in a new one. We do not negotiate prices with customers.
Also keep in mind that you can choose to sell any of your remaining items for 50% off during the half-price pre-sale for volunteers on Saturday evening as well as the entire last day of the sale (Sunday from 10.00-16.00). We highly encourage you to do so--it means that you will have less to take home at the end of the sale.
Price your items to sell--people come to the sale looking for bargains. Think about how much you would be willing to pay for the item and price accordingly. Far too many first-time sellers price their items way too high.

General pricing guidelines:
- Clothing: A good rule of thumb: 1/4 of the original price if the item is in good condition; 1/3 of the original price if the item is like-new or never worn. Designer labels are often more popular and you can price these even higher. Keep in mind that we are always overflowing with clothes for babies, so price these items to sell.
- Toys (Books, CDs, DVDs, etc.): Charge between 1/4 – 1/2 of the original price depending on the item’s quality and popularity.
- Equipment: (Strollers, exersaucers, bouncy seats, swings, travel cribs, bicycles, skis, etc.) Start with 1/2 of the original price. Charge a little more if the item is popular and in great condition. Charge 1/4 of the original price if the item not in great condition or is not a popular brand.
