Step 1: Assess the value of your scores and methods

Fixer le bon prix est essentiel pour attirer des acheteurs :

  • Recherchez le prix neuf actuel : Consultez les sites des éditeurs ou revendeurs pour connaître la valeur actuelle de vos partitions et méthodes.
  • Consider the general condition: Check the condition of your books (pages intact, cover in good condition). A well-preserved score can sell for 50-70% of its new price.
Step 2: Prepare your scores and sales methods

Une présentation soignée mettra en valeur vos ouvrages :

  • Nettoyez soigneusement : Enlevez la poussière, effacez les annotations si possible, et redressez les pages pliées.
  • Check the content: Make sure that all the pages and parts (conductors, instrument scores, etc.) are present.
  • Take quality photos: Photograph the cover, table of contents and a few extracts to show the general condition and content.
Step 3: Write a detailed and precise advert

A well-written ad attracts serious buyers:

  • Include the essential details: Mention the title, the publisher, the level required and the instruments involved.
  • Mention the current condition: Be transparent about any annotations, tears or missing pages.
  • Add additional information: Indicate whether the work is rare, out of print or sought after (for example: essential piano method, scores of great classics for orchestra, etc.).
Step 4: Answer buyers' questions quickly

Rapid communication can make all the difference:

  • Availability: Be ready to respond to messages from potential buyers.
  • Clarity: Provide additional information or precise photos if requested.
