3 ties: Bvlgari, Battistoni, NWT Polo

Gents, I feared this day would come. I've had these gorgeous ties hanging on their rack for some time, longing for wear, but the opportunity has never come. What's more, I knew that at some point, something so perfect would go on sale that I would need to sell these ties; having the money tied up in silk when I could use it on wool is silly. Alas, that day has come. I don't wear ties everyday, but I do wear an overcoat, and it costs $200. Hopefully these ties will get me there. Note that I am not very skilled in selling ties. I have tried to take the best possible pictures. Please ask for any information that you need. It is my understanding that a Bvlgari runs $80-100, a Polo around $40-50 and a Battistoni around $50. I would like to sell these as a lot, shipped priority mail, for $200. Is that reasonable? If not, please let me know. 1. Bvlgari. Orange and beautiful. Worn only once. sold 2. Battistoni Note that some of the flowers near the bottom have loose thread. Worn only once. sold 3. Polo. NWT, MSRP $95. Never worn.

I've been told the price is too high, so how about all three for $175?

Perhaps you would have more success if you sold them separately. As you surely know, it's harder to sell three ties at once than one at a time.

I have sold the Bvlgari. The other two remain and are for sale individually or together for $75 shipped.

I will drop the price to $70 shipped for the remaining two, or sell them at $42 for the Bvlgari and $37 for the Polo.

I've decided to keep the Polo and will sell just the Battistoni on its own.

Battistoni down to $38 shipped. I'd like to note that the flowers/dots are stitched in, not printed on the silk.
