A friend is selling her 7' x 5' shed and has asked me if anyone at the allotments would be interested. It will be dismantled and delivered to the allotments. It has a window and is in good condition.
Only problem is, she hasn't got a clue how much to ask.
Any ideas anyone?
I've been buying secondhand chicken coops recently (3 of them!), so if it's any help, a fair price for something in good condition would be a third of the new price for a "take it away yourself" item.
Much depends on the quality of the original. Ordinary B&Q type sheds don't take kindly to being dismantled and reassembled. The window glass may no longer fit, and the roof covering is likely to tear.
A really nice quality shed in good condition might be worth half of the new price.
If it's being delivered, you could add on a reasonable amount for that.
So if the shed would be around £300 to £350 new, I'd say between £125 and £150 delivered.
back in the real world !!
second-hand sheds usually sell for £25 - £40 ( collected) maybe more if delivered.
Going rate in Lincolnshire for s/shand 3'x6' shed is about £25 and 6'x8' shed about £50ish, take it down and haul it away yourself.
Usually £30-50 depending on condition. I bid on a 7x5 shed at the weekend on ebay. It sold for £70.
50 splosh top whack if in good condition. :D
Perhaps in some areas 2nd hand shed go for more than in others?
Supply and demand..
They are usually pretty scarce when you are looking for them. :(
