advice on selling Wig Wag

Post by autobot » Wed Jul 18, 2012 4:26 pm

Hey,

I was able to acquire most of a working Wig-Wag over the past few years. I've built a few of the parts like the crossing box, pained everything and put it together on a stand. It does work (I'll post a video later).

The wig-wag was originally located in Caso sub until a few years back when it was shut down.

I was looking for some general advice as how I should go about trying to sell this thing to the right buyer.

I'm located in Toronto which is about an hour from Niagara falls and about 2 hours from Buffalo.
Thanks :)

Your homemade crossbucks are arranged incorrectly. (It's a Railroad crossing, not a Crossing Railroad)
Just the facts, ma'am.

I hate to say it... but Ebay is probably going to be your best bet. If you price it right... it could sell quite quickly.
