Your friends need to help arrange things sothat they can get to the fact of the whole deals. And that’s it.

Check the forecast before making the day firm. Neatness counts .Clean and dust everything .Use easy to remove tags to price your items.Organize your products in groups.A sale that looks like a pile of clothes or junk draws less people.Set prices at 33% of what it cost new.With clothes books or toys go for bulk sales.Have electrical source ready so buyers can test appliances and tools.Give buyers plenty breathing room to browes.Accept cash only.Have plenty of change and a calculator handy.Make all sales final.

In addition to what was mentioned, be sure that at least one family member of each family is present to make negotiations. I can’t tell you how annoying it is to be a garage saler and offer a lower price and the person there says “it’s not my stuff, so I can’t adjust it.” Some things are just overpriced for being used.
