    It will be interesting if it sells. You do limit the market by having such a big lot.

    I disagree, it's local pickup only.

    Shooting himself in the foot by not being willing to ship. In a way it seems like an incognito advertisement and not really an auction...

    You mean 5k more than he would receive if he boxed them up and shipped to you? Wow, he's hugely overly optimistic then. I don't know if someone smart enough to save up 15 grand is dumb enough to blow it on that lot. Seems the crazy Ebay prices are on smaller lots, like a few hundred and down. For the most part anyway.

    From what I've seen people paying for scrap computers I'm sure there is someone out there that will pay 15,000.00 for those prossesors thinking that they got 30,000.00$ of gold in them.

    There is a maximum fee amount that eBay will take. Currently for auction style listings it is $100 and starting April 16th the max will be $250.

    For fixed price listings its like $51 for the first $1000 and 2% of the remaining value after that. So his eBay fees if this sells is going to be around $350
