How to sell on AZB?

Hi folks, I've been a member on this site for awhile now, and I'd like to sell a few of my cues. I have pics taken and the weight of the butts and shafts. But, I dont know how to list them! Step by step instructions would be great please.

Hi,
Go to the WANTED/FOR SALE TAB HERE ON AZ.
GO TO THE FOR SALE SECTION-IN THE UPPER LEFT CORNER CLICK ON "NEW THREAD"-
ADD YOUR CUE DESCRIPT...
THEN SPECS/PRICE/COND, ETC.
THEN GO TO THE ATTACHMENTS-LOOKS LIKE A PAPER CLIP"
CLICK THERE AND ADD PICS

Be as specific as possible. In addition to the weight, list length, balance point, size of shaft at ferrule, type of tip, type of joint, pin size and pitch, material of forearm, butt sleeve and butt cap, type of wrap, approximate vintage, any damage such as dents, dings, roll or lift, etc.

I don't think anybody serious about buying a cue ever complained, "Whoa, that dude listed way too much information."

Good luck to you.

Let me know if you have any questions

The important thing is good pics and complete specs with prices, and disclose any issues.
Butt weight
Shaft weight & shaft diameters
Lengths
General description

I include shipping via USPS Priority signature confirmation, and PayPal fee's but that is up to you
International shipping is typically negotiated

The two previous posts provided great guidance on information to include. Adding to their contributions, I would describe whether or not the cue contains ivory and if the shafts were built using LD techniques. Many posts try to hide the word "ivory" to keep it from serving as a hit from a search (for reasons that are not apparent to me). But the information impacts the risks for shipping and addresses buyer preferences.

Post a price, how firm is the price, and will you consider trades. Be prepared for PMs that ask for your bottom line price. After you respond, be prepared for the potential buyer to offer less than your bottom line.
