What types of items can I sell with
Imagine This Sold?
If it was once of value to you, it's probably still of value
to someone else. We accept virtually any item with an estimated
value of $50 or more, as long as it's legal to sell it on eBay
(no counterfeits, hazardous materials, stolen property, etc.).

How long is my item listed for sale?
Imagine This Sold typically provides 7-day auctions.
However, sometimes shorter auctions are required for time sensitive
items such as concert tickets and sporting event tickets.
Who sets the price for my auction?
Using advanced eBay appraisal software, our expert team will
research closed listings on eBay for similar or like items to
determine a suitable selling price and marketing strategy. It
is important to note that, because your item is now available
to a huge, worldwide market, backed by the Imagine This
Sold eBay experience rating
and our professional
online presentation, you might expect to receive a much higher
selling price than you would through more traditional means (garage
sales, private sales, etc.). Remember, the lower the starting
price, the more interest it will generate from buyers!
Can I set a reserve bid on my item?
Yes. If requested, we establish a minimum bid level, although
doing so can often limit auction activity. Speak to our
Imagine This Sold staff for advice and details.
When will I receive my check?
Typically, you’ll receive a check within 3 to 4 weeks after
your item sells. On rare occasion, a winning bidder may delay
sending payment or may fail to complete the transaction, which
can cause delays in the processing of the check. In the event
of non-payment, Imagine This Sold will list your
item again for free. Your check amount and timing is then dependent
upon the results of the new auction.
Who pays for shipping?
The buyer pays for all shipping, handling and insurance.
What if my item doesn't sell?
If you have chosen a Red Package,
your item will be re-listed a second time free of charge. If you
have chosen a Blue Package,
your item can be re-listed under a lower reserve price for an
additional $10.00 or re-listed with no reserve for an additional
$5.00. Alternatively, if you do not want to re-list your item,
you may come and pick up the item or donate it to charity (within
10 days).
Do I have to leave my items
at your location?
Yes, we keep the item in our store in order to answer any questions
from buyers during the duration of your auction.
Is there any size restriction
for an item?
Item MUST meet the following requirements:
a) Item must weigh 150 lbs (68 kg) or less.
b) Item must be 130 inches (330 cm) in length and girth* combined.
