lervad technology benches

[phm87]

Good morning all.
As you can see i`m new hear and this is my first post.
I am in need of some advice please.
I have 18 Lervad technology benches with tool channels, 9 x 80cm and 9 x 132cm.
They area from the 70`s and came out of a school (obviously)
Do you think i should sell them as a group or individually ?
Some don`t have 2 vices on them and there is general ware and tear.
Any help and a few pointers would be most helpful.
I would add some pics but i`m a lot of a Luddite .

I guess that it depends a bit on what you want to achieve.

If you want to maximise the money you will get, sell them individually. Specify exactly what the buyer is getting and everybody is happy. I had not heard of these, so I googled and they look interesting. The price of ex-school work benches on eBay is (often only) about the value of the vices, so be warned that you might not get much.

If you want to clear space, sell as a job lot. You will probably get next to nothing because finding somebody that needs/wants 18 benches will be a challenge in itself.

The alternative may be to try and sell what you can on here- individually and then put the remainder on eBay as a job lot.

Thanks marcros, food for thought.
I will probably sell individually on the bay
Thanks again

May be worth trying on here. You need a few more posts but there are no fees and an interested audience.
