If you have a used Visio 42-inch TV to sell, you want to receive the most money you can. You also want to price the TV fairly; otherwise, it might not sell at all. If you price it too low, you will sell it quickly, but lose money. If you price too high, you might have a difficult time selling and getting the cash to buy a replacement. Fortunately, you have resources at your disposal to make finding a fair price easier.
Instructions
1. Check the prices of new 42-inch Visio televisions, if your TV is a recent model. Be sure to check prices at both traditional retailers and big box stores like Wal-Mart, Target and Best Buy. Keep in mind you are comparing new TVs to a used set, so you will need to make your price lower to compete.
2. Log on to your eBay account, if you have one, and do a search for your model. Check the "Completed listings" box and see the final selling prices of similar TVs. This will give you a good idea what to expect when selling your own TV.
3. Check your local classifieds, both in the newspaper and online. Look for televisions of similar size and age and compare the asking prices. Pricing your Visio TV similar to these can give you the best shot at quickly selling your TV.
4. Contact several Visio dealers in your area and ask them if the price you are considering is fair. Visio dealers have a unique perspective when it comes to determining the used value of various models of Visio television equipment.
5. Use online resources like the Orion Blue Book (See Resources) to look up the recommended sale prices. You can search for your model number directly, or browse to the Visio brand and find your model that way.
