<DIV> I know it's the time of the year that many of you are going to swap shops to get rid of old and unused RC inventory. I have a thought on that subject. I think you can do far better selling on either RCUniverse or Ebay, You expose your wares to so many more people and you stand a great chance of getting more for your stuff this way. RCU will allow 4 free listings per year and doesn't charge a commission. Ebay is quite a bit more expensive but exposes your product to the most potential buyers.</DIV>
<DIV> It's a smart thing to monitor the market value of what your selling and don't overprice it. Engines sell really well but be fair. Recently we sold a mint condition YS 140L that was 3 years old for $300 on Ebay. We were pretty pleased with that. Also back up what you sell with prompt communication and total honesty. A tip on Ebay that works for me is reserve listings sometimes I start the bidding out on an item for a dolar but I set a reserve on the absolute minimum I would accept. This gets fence sitters involved and pumps up the competition. Sometimes 2 buyers will get in a bidding war and it gets goofy. Also if your buying don't show your hand too soon. Time your bid to be at the end and you'll save a ton.</DIV>
<DIV> If your new to Ebay it's important that you establish a positive rating before you attempt to sell items. You do this by buying things 1st. You can buy cheap stuff at 1st to get your feet wet.</DIV>
<DIV> I'm telling you this because it works very well for me. The money I generate from these sales lowers the out of pocket that I need to get new stuff. Also I have been able to buy things cheaper at times used them and sold them off at little or no expense to own.</DIV>
<DIV> Swaps tend to get to the point that you nearly have to give stuff away and that's why I think you would do better this way. Now go make some money! Mike</DIV></DIV><p><hr SIZE=1>
