Well-written descriptions and good photography seem to really increase the amount eBay buyers will pay, which plays into the hands of the people on this list. And if you're good you can find some great deals (I got a Hasselblad Polaroid 100 back *and* an A-24 back, both ugly but fully functional, for like $120 *total* once because the guy wrote a poor ad with no reserve). There are people who make a living buying stuff at rational prices and reselling it at a huge mark-up on eBay. There are other people (like me) who buy there -- if you know what you want and you're willing to wait, you can do marvelously well. I'd still prefer to sell my stuff one-on-one though. - -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.0.6 (GNU/Linux) Comment: For info see http://www.gnupg.org iEYEARECAAYFAjyHyrMACgkQgFulSVO/UBoEPQCghYSJyfdcVQyM9A5tpZVCJtDz VbMAn0NEQGkuvo/kfw+q9cHWechMv01F =SWd5 - -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- - -- To unsubscribe, see http://mejac.palo-alto.ca.us/leica-users/unsub.html
