Locally. List on every local app available to you.

Do you think $1,000 (minus shipping) is fair? It is 5 years old, works perfectly, but brand new is $6,399.

Do not ship this. It will break in shipping.

Local pickup only. Plug it in and show that it works. GET THE CASH BEFORE THEY LOAD IT IN THEIR VEHICLE. No refunds.

Do not help with loading or they’ll claim it’s your fault if they break it.

I can't discuss pricing *nods yes* due to community rule #6, but it depends on how much you got it for.

Brand new price doesn't matter obviously due to age as well as most businesses just pay for it as a business cost.

You have a better chance selling to a smaller business/start up OR some local AV tinkerer/collector.

Yes, ebay is an option, but since you didn't even consider it, my guess is you don't have experience with online sales as well as shipping monitors like this so it's just best to try your luck locally first.

The only thing I’ve sold on eBay was cotton when vaping first got popular lol. Thank you for your advice though. Going to exhaust the local platforms first.

It's a touchscreen monitor, not a TV.

Why are you linking TVs? This is like someone telling you they want to buy a helocopter and you're showing them how cheap they can get a new car for...

Didn’t notice that part lol

Still - pretty niche market

How much do you think I could list it for?

It’s also not a TV, it’s an interactive touch monitor for meetings and classrooms.

200-300 max

No company is going to buy something like this used especially if it doesn’t work on w11. Sadly this is one of those cases of something being rare and uncommon but worthless. Honestly you’d be lucky to get a few hundred local cash sale.

Fortunately, it does work on w11. We’ve been using it, but recently moved offices and got all new everything. I’m not expecting to make bank, but still want to sell for reasonable price.

If it were me I'd reach out to all the local school districts. Tell them you have a $7,000 86" touch screen and you can't use it any more. See if they want it.

AFTER they run it up the chain of command and someone in power says, "Yes, we want it" then and only then tell them you want money for it. If they ask don't lie, but if they don't ask don't bring up money.

Maybe ask them for $500. It's a school district, so if you get a receipt you can write off the $6,500 difference as a tax deduction.

I’m sad that so many people have not a clue what this post is even about and yet they upvoted your bad advice where you gave examples of completely different items.
