TGTG writes: Ultrajunk - yes, I would do small lots but since you have so many would probably pick a Buy It Now price you are comfortable with and list them that way. We sell on eBay and so many of our artist customers appreciate getting what they need quickly. Do a little past auction / past Buy It Now searching and see what the average price is. And roll shipping into the cost so it is Free for the buyer - big selling point! This time of year you'll do well. Let me know if I can help with anything else. :-) And let me know if you'll sell any of those huge gears you posted the other day. I about lost control when I saw those. :-) :-)

TTYS,
