fellow snuffers, at the moment i do not really enjoy sniffing the stuff. no idea why, it just is so. does anyone have interest in my collection? (nearly all toques, quite a few english snuffs, over 50 varieties, i believe) there also still is a serious stock of bernhards snuff 50g packs…
What kind of price do you have in mind and would you ship to the UK?
i would ship to the UK, but on the risk of the receiver (unless insured, which is a bit more expensive). i had something around 1 euro per item in mind. some things are probably worth much more, some a bit less, it would about even out. the big bernhard packs would go for 3 euro a piece. i will only sell the complete bunch.
So what is the asking price?
would have to count it all over, guess it will turn out at slightly above 50 euros. is there enough serious interest that i should go through the collection, do a rough write-up and then we haggle? if the above mentioned sum already seems to high, i guess the deal will not happen (in fact i think it will be slightly more, but really have to look it through)
No thanks, count me out. 50 would be too high for what I presume would be partly used or opened snuffs in the majority of cases. If you don’t get any other interest and are desperate to sell I would offer 20 for everything excluding the Bernards which I have no interest in. Best of luck.
yes they are partly used, but in many cases are stil 80% or more in. i would not count near empty ones. there are lots of toques (also fresh, unopened ones), dholakia (also fresh) and the bernhards (fresh). only the complete pack. i think 1 euro per item is about fair. that is less than half the new price in most cases and some are in fact totally new. i would be willing to give a discount (like rounding down to the next 10er digit). i guess if no one here wants the stuff, i would put it on ebay.
You might have some better luck selling it piecemeal. Try the “offers and requests” thread with an inventory. We’ve had some other large collections dispersed that way in recent months. It is tempting to me, but I can’t spend the money at this time. I’m sad you have lost interest in snuff. I hope I never do.
selling piecemeal is out of question. toomuch hazzle for what i might get out of it. i would be willing to sell in two blocks or so, if there are people interested and if their interest match. not very likely though…
I would sell it in 4 blocks… 50 tins of a snuff collection, even if cheap, are hard to handle for a single person. For 50 Euros you get tons of fresh snuff.
You might even make more, and sell it, rather than not selling it, or making less, if you did sell it by a limited number of tins in a bulk, like 10 or 15, for whatever cost, and consider postage. If you were in the US and said here is my list, pick 10 for so much cost, I’d be interested.
but i am not in the usa. and postage is a big reason i would only sell the complete bunch if it is abroad. (unless someone really wants to pay as much for postage as for the goods…)
Im out on this, but do bear in mind, as already said, that E50 will buy a lot of new snuff.
Unless you really need the money, I’d suggest holding on to it for now. I quit using snuff and went back to smoking for about a year. I just recently regained interest and am glad I still had my hoard.
