Ebay has its place. I do most of my business there and have been for lots of years. Fees are part of doing business. I have sold PC scrap on Ebay but after fees I figure I don't make more then if I sold it to an online buyer. I'm sure I have let some things go cheaper by not putting them on Ebay, but waiting the 7 days sometimes isn't worth it.

I work from my single car garage. Both walls are lined with shelves of books and videos for Amazon. Some shelves hold my Ebay inventory. Back wall has my tool cabinets and toolbox. The center has my worktable and very little room for anything else. When I get a load of anything I need to process it quick and get it out quick or I will be swamped and won't be able to move around at all. Waiting for a buyer that may never pay the price on Ebay isn't really an option... so there are spots for quick buyers even at a smaller payout.

We are trying to move, which complicates things even more. Each night my tools need to be hidden and all mess cleaned up so it will be "show ready". Yeah, right. I try.

I can't wait until we sell. My minimum requirement for out new place will be a 3 stall garage and if at all possible a detached shop. That would be ideal. We have found a few, but need to sell first.
