I've had success selling to the list about 1/3-1/2 the time. And it saved me the hassle of using eBay. But if you want to just sell it on an auction site without telling us that's fine. Maybe just indicating you are selling something and giving us your eBay ID so we can see what you are listing would be enough. Kent Gittings

Kent Gittings >From my observations the difference between selling on a community list and eBay is that it seems easier for the buyer to make a decision and more likely that they will stick with it when the items are presented for auction on eBay. So I won't be offering items for sale direct to the list any longer, I have found through several attempts that it just does'nt work smoothly for out-of- towners. I hope that this doesn't also make me one of the "categorized" when you find my stuff on eBay with out having listed it here for a month at a discount and without a sale?
