   Best way to sell a barograph   
   26 Aug 05 09:11:33

   Hi.   
      
   I have a barograph that I'd like to sell, and I'm not sure how to sell it to   
   get the best price for it. The barograph is in full working order and is in   
   very good condition. It has bevelled glass on 5 sides and a drawer with   
   spare chart papers.   
      
   I have a lot of experience of selling on ebay so that's an option. I've seen   
   them sell on ebay for between £200 and £500.   
      
   I've also seen barographs selling via dealers for £1,000 and upwards. So I   
   might be able to find a dealer that would give me a good price.   
      
   Obviously, I could also try and sell through a traditional auction house.   
   I've never done this before, are there specialist auction houses for such   
   equipment?   
      
   I'd obviously like the best price I can get, and I'm not sure which of the   
   options may give the best chance. I'd appreciate any advice.   
      
   Thanks
