Is Ebay worth the trouble?

My kids have outgrown all their stuff and I was considering putting some of
it up on EBay. But it looks like all the EBay ski stuff has zero bids.

Is this typical?

Should I just take it all down to Goodwill instead?

Can't hurt to try.

sold on E-bay.

I got some stuff that has served me well for $200 a couple of years ago. That's
more than ski stuff is worth to me these days, but a good deal non the less.

Another option is to try to sell them at a local swap. That way both you
and the organization (e.g. ski club) can benefit from it (they charge about
20%). You may have to wait until next year for the next opportunity though.

I don't think eBay does much for sellers of ski equipment mostly due to
high shipping cost.

Probably. I found about a 100 ski items just from one guy:

http://cgi6.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?
ViewSellersOtherItems&include=0&userid=twobuddha&s ort=3&rows=25&since=-
1&rd=1




Hmmm. Richard Henry is cruising Ebay. Then somebody goes anonymous to
encourage his fellow terrorist to harass and lie about me (as one of his
buddies has already done). Typical Richard Henry pattern: encourage others
to do dirty work.
More stalking, more terrorism, more harassment from the criminals of rsa.
What will they do next?

No. Because you'd have to provide a mailing address, you sick stalker. How
pathetically transparent you are! Bert and I both spotted your pattern,
just laughed about it on the phone.

OK, you convinced me. Goodwill gets the stuff. If I can only get $10-$20
per item, I'll get better satisfaction knowing I donated to a cause to help
mankind.

You FINALLY admit your thievery.

That's the first step toward recovery.
