selling fish on craigslist.com??

[gveng]

i downgraded my 60 gallon to a 40 gallon so i can buy a 125 gallon when house gets remodeled (3 months).

i have 2 blood parrot cichlids, 2 snow white cichlids, and 3 angel fish i want to sell or rehome. but i have no clue how much to ask? all the fish are pretty big about 4-6"

any advice on pricing would be great...

EDIT: some pictures...

might be a good idea to check out craigslist's buying section and see what price other people are asking for? thats price fixing tho, which is illegal, but still.

no one is selling the same fish in my area.

i'm thinking of asking $20.00 per pair, like $20 for 2 parrots, $20 for 2 snow whites, and $20 for 3 angelfish... sound fair?

really depends on what you can get for those type of fish in your area, you gotta remember people go to craigslist to get a deal, if you offer those fish, and then say like 50$ takes them all...

people will be like "hell yeah i'll save money if i buy them all at once"

Also, a pic, even its its horrible quality will get peoples attention. I dont even read most ads if it doesn't have a photo.

Sounds good mate.
Make sure to include pics and people will buy them up quick, Im sure. I've never had trouble unloading on craigslist. Prices seem spot on to me.
