[QUOTE="CobraBob, post: 2834780, member: 6727"] Funny thing. I've been selling and buying on eBay for about 5 years now. When eBay first started out it was a mecca for the seller. A lot of people jumped on the bandwagon and made some decent money. Pretty much everything you listed sold. But as the eBay community grew, it has become more of a buyer's mecca -- a land of bargains. So there are a ton more unsold items now. That doesn't mean it isn't a smart place to sell a car. You also have a ton more sellers selling similar/same items, too. People now look to eBay for the best prices. For a bargain. Heck, I do it all the time. For example, I wanted the Roxio Creator 7.5 upgrade and the cheapest I could find was $77.95 less a $30. mail-in rebate. I went to eBay and found it for $19.95. And no rebate hassle. I got a steal on a refurbished HP laser printer there, too. Way cheaper than I would have found local. There are exceptions to this, but I believe eBay now has the reputation of being THE place to find a good bargain. Great for many buyers and not always great for sellers because the potential for profit isn't always there if the buyer is only looking for the cheapest price. JMO. [/QUOTE]
