Ed,  I don't want to pick a bone with you but there are basically two 
reasons to sell on e-bay.  1) the stuff isn't needed and 2) the need to 
raise money.  I see nothing with raising money and if I have a really 
great product I might make more what it cost originally.   Examples of 
this might be a older brass engine that has been worked on, painted, 
lettered, weathered into a fine masterpiece--what's a fair price? 
depends on how you see it, but if I was selling it I would expect a 
price way above the standard retail price for a boxed unit.  After all, 
most of us of told our wives that this stuff is a good investment to be 
sold when we kick the bucket!  I wouldn't lie to my wife!

Now, a game it is!  I don't know of any fair rules.  We have snipping, 
and snipping software so that sort of takes the fun out of it.

that.  It shows that all he cares about is making money and he's affraid 
he'll have to sell for a dime less than what he wants.
