Prepare photos, serial number, condition and accessories

Before offering your item, collect the same material you would want to receive from the other party:

  • overall photos;
  • details;
  • serial number;
  • defects;
  • modifications;
  • functional condition;
  • included accessories;
  • available documentation.

This creates a symmetrical basis for negotiation.

If you expect transparency about the other item, be prepared to provide the same level of information about yours.
