Selling Guide
Where to Sell
Facebook Marketplace or Craigslist are best to avoid high shipping costs due to the item's bulk. eBay is a secondary option if the buyer pays calculated shipping.
Selling Tips
Wipe the plastic with a damp cloth to remove dust before photographing. Take a photo of the interior showing the foam and arrow clips, as padding condition is vital to buyers. Use keywords like 'Archery', 'Hunting', 'Compound Bow', and 'Hard Case'.
