eBay is just about dead I think I started selling stuff 20 years ago, sold of most of my professional photo gear, old tools, clothes and knickknacks. I was going to list a Canon DSLR body I no longer need and a couple of lenses in mint condition but there are hardly any auctions now and just lots of shops and online stores selling stuff for a fixed price. The whole concept of the auction used to be to research the trending sale prices, list your item fairly low to generate bids and watch the bids grow. Sometimes I sold cameras and lenses for more than they cost at other sites. Now it seems very little sells, I watch items and an they just get relisted at the same price. So I sent my camera stuff to an online store in New York that gives a fair price for used gear; their mainly a used gear seller. And I am getting more than if I sold it on eBay after the fees are taken. And the nice thing is they had some other gear I wanted I'm doing a partial trade and still getting paid back. Wondering how long eBay will still be around.
@Chrisinkingwood : My friend sells on eBay and still does really well. She always does auctions. 4951
