Selling An Above Ground Pool

I have a 24 foot by 54 inch round above ground swimming pool which is two years old. It comes with everything and also has an alarm for security purposes.

Do you know of anyone who wants to purchase it? Either a store or a person would be fine. I can be contacted at ssmallslee@hvc.rr.com anytime. I will also submit photos of the item if anyone's interested. Thank you.




Hi Sandra. I will add a few comments about selling an above ground pool. This time of year, when the kids are heading back to school, is the best time to buy an above ground pool, but not really the best time to sell one. Anyone that can wait until late in the season to get their pool can usually find some good deals. If anyone is even thinking about a pool for next year, now is the time to buy. Hopefully you can find a late season shopper and sell your pool, or hang on to it over the winter and sell it in the spring for more money.

Pools always sell better when they are full of crystal clear water with everything working properly. A pool in this condition will bring more money than a stack of parts in the garage. If you do have to take your pool down be sure to take a ton of photos. Take pictures of it assembled and then of the dismantling process.



The two best places to advertise your pool for sale are your local newspaper and Craigs List. You might also post fliers at stores or anyplace with a bulletin board. Used pools are in demand so if you are persistent you may find a buyer for it.
