Hello, I am not sure how selling stuff here works. If you have experience or advice I would appreciate it.
This is what I have for sale (I am consolidating my gear and decided to go solely full-frame). I am willing to sell items separately but would prefer to sell everything as a package. Basically I am looking to sell for ~half the current new price which would be about $750 according to my estimate but offers accepted. I can send photos of each item and will answer any questions. Shipping included within the US.
Sony Alpha a6000 Mirrorless Digital Camera with kit zoom + 3 other lenses.
Shutter count <1500. Very clean. Minor scuffs on LCD screen.
(1) Original box. Missing strap and original AC adapter.
(2) 2 batteries (1 original) + charger.
(3) Charging cable (not original).
(4) Velo wired remote (thrown in for free if you purchase everything).
(5) SmallRig A6000 cage (Bottom screw a bit worn) (thrown in for free if you purchase everything).
Lenses:
A. Tamron E-my 18-200 mm f3.5 - 6.3 Di III VC zoom + UV filter + original box + lens pouch (not original). Very good-to-excellent condition.

dear david,
I do not pretend to be an expert in photography, selling, buying, or marketing used equipment, but I have a few suggestions.
1. Yes, as already recommended, DO include photos of each item you’re selling in this package.
2. Please review MY edited version of your initial post. Note that I am assuming that you’ll be posting it here on the Hog, at the very least. No, of course my way of presenting the information is not the only way.
NOTE that the manufacturer is far more important to show first when itemizing you’re lenses, certainly when compared to what mount the lens is.
I also moved your listing of the kit lens to accompany the other lenses, because that’s how, I believe, most buyers would think.
Notice that since you already enumerated the non-lens items, I changed the symbol preceding each lens. Why do you think I did that? (See my last point as an example why I did so.)
The order in which you itemize the lenses is up to you.
3. I wouldn’t expect buyers to know off the top of their respective heads what the Aperture Range or Filter Diameter for each lens is, so I suggest you provide it; make it EASY for the buyer to know what you’re offering.
4. You misspelled Vello.
5. I own a number of Sony cameras and various brands of batteries ... not all battery brands are good! So I recommend you include the brand of the other(“not original") battery.
6. I am completely unfamiliar with item 5. I recommend you show a photo of it. (HAD you enumerated this item as, say, #3, it would be confusing for a buyer to simply refer to it as item 5, since your original format enumerated twice. Of course, I admit that for those who can type quickly, my "issue" might be moot as they might not identify it by its number. 🤔)
Hope this helps you.
