How would you sell it??

Unfortunately I have a neck injury ( thank you US Navy lol) that has caused my hands to lose their strength. I am living in Las Vegas and need to sell all of my leather working tools and the collection of leather. Would you sell it as a bulk sale or a piece at a time? I have mostly hand tools and Veg leather from 9-0 down to thin kangaroo. What should I do?

Here in Ohio . . . our best bet for selling stuff is Facebook marketplace . . . I bought a truck . . . milling machine . . . I've seen whole shops on there . . . and I've sold a brass bed headboard . . . portable air tank . . . it's just good.

I'd try there first . . . doesn't cost anything unless you want to pay for some special treatment of your ad . . . just make sure you put a good list of what you want to sell . . .  if the information doesn't spark an interest . . . no sale.

Do you have any machinery?  You can list it here . . . or if you want . . . you might break it up into machinery . . . hand tools . . . leather (size & sq footage) . . . you might sell it all on here.

May God bless,

Piece it out, if you're not in a hurry. It'll be a lot more work and time for you but you get a higher return. The most likely buyer for the lot will be a dealer or reseller who will need to make a profit.

You could always price everything out individually and then mention that you'd consider an offer on the lot. Maybe someone will come along who wants exactly the collection of things you have.

Like @Dwight and @AlZilla have said break it up into various pieces. Check and see what the items can be purchased for new and ask fair reduced price. I think you would have to take a lot less selling them as one big lot. Someone maybe interested in leather while others may want needles and thread or tools. I have in the past bought bulk lots but got them for a real cheap price and then sold off the items that I didn't want for a profit.
