Hey List,

Well, it was interesting to see how the Meteorite Men collectible slabs
went on Ebay this past week. I was genuinely surprised to see the complete
set of 18 go actually go for more than the 18 individuals did. I thought it
would have been the other way around. Usually volume sales is where the
discounts are.

This first listing was a test. And as part of the test, "investing" time
to load on things on Ebay is fine. But the results of the test show that
listing some to only get from $1 to $4 final bid isn't worth the fees or the
time to do so. There are other venues to better move low cost items than
the high fee and high labor task of posting on Ebay.

However, some of the individuals that brought up over the $10 range take
the same time to list, and the fees are close to the same, but the profit is
more worth the time cost.

The test shows that selling complete sets also might be worth the effort
since the first one brought a bit of a premium. I only have 4 more
complete sets.

So, I am haven't decided yet if I want to list more on Ebay or not...

But I figured if anyone on the list might be interested in some of these
directly from me, let's skip Ebay and we can talk one on one.

Thanks
