Are there any sites/groups that would be better than eBay or here to list my Baranik? 

Paging those who might know: @stuartryanmusic @MichaelWatts ;

    For the uninterneters (just creating language as I go along) what's AGF?

    Definitely put it on AGF. There are quite a few UK /European guys there who are more into boutique / luthier stuff  who wouldn't necessarily post here. Also check out The Acoustic Soundboard, another UK based forum. It doesn't get the traffic of bigger forums but there are some guys there who are very serious about their guitars.

    It's The Acoustic Guitar Forum, mainly USA based and gets a lot of traffic.

    Euro-based stuff generally takes an age to shift on AGF

    ^ Thank you.  As with the internet, the acoustic world is something I haven't really engaged with properly yet.

    You know what, I may even have accounts on both of those - not been on in years though. 

    Will see if they have post requirements for classifieds ta

    20-25% I reckon. Dream Guitars say 25% up to 15k value so that’s a marker

    The Acoustic Music Co in Brighton also does consignment sales of high end instruments. I'm not sure what the commission is but phone Trevor to see what he suggests

    Hi Tim, sorry for getting here late! Nigel at V&R is great, he's sold a few things for me or TNAG, they usually get rid of stuff pretty quickly.

    Sorry, just re-read your post - I thought it was the J45 going. If it's the Baranik then definitely TNAG, they have the audience who are looking for that sort of stuff

    eBay would not be my first choice! You'll get a better return in a private sale or via Reverb.

    What! Never thought I'd see you selling the Baranik..... 

    This is like not seeing a soap for two years then catching it and you're like "she's dating who now?" Lol.

    Why sell? Genuinely surprised!

    That seems like a peculiar position to take...consignment's already a no risk deal for them and if what they've got on the wall now isn't selling why not try something else? Oh well, sure they know what they're doing.

    TAMCO seemed to sell a fair number of guitars a while back, but I think the 'acoustic boom' might be over and it's hit their business .  They used to have a fair amount of stock, and represent a number of guitar makers but right now they seem to have very little stock. 

    I can only speculate though. 

    I went to TAMCO a few years ago and they literally had 3-4 times the guitars they have now and it was a delight of guitar shop trip.
