At my oldest daughter's advice we decided to post a few items on Ebay with a "buy it now price." That would have been great had folks not been able to bid and purchase said items for a mere .99c. Ooops. We did something wrong and ended up selling a new pair of Lacrosse hunting boots (which retail for around $90) and a pair of Heelys for 99c. Live and learn.
We are thinking that unless we have really high ticket items that generate multiple bids, that we should sell on Craigslist.
Even better, I'm thinking that collecting books for McKays and trading for cash might be more profitable.
We have a stack of about 20 games that we are trying how best to sell. Any thoughts?

Awww...sorry that didn't work out. But I guess it didn't cost you toooo much for that lesson!
What kind of games? You might be able to sell some of them to your rich friends..thus enabling you to 'bless' others. LOL!!
Yah, the problemo is that you put the "buy it now" as a second option. Therefore, once somebody bids on the auction itself the BIN option is no longer available. If you only have BIN as an option then you won't be taking that risk. How's that for info after the fact?
Ohhh ouch. Why is it so painful to "learn" things? (sigh) I've sold one item on ebay and it caused me so much stress that I haven't had the urge to do anything like that since!!
I enjoyed meeting you the other day at the blog brunch. Thanks for your encouraging comment!
