Hey Olddude, something else to consider would be an eBay reseller. They'll take your item and sell it on eBay for you. I think the going rate is a 50-50 split on the profit, but you might want to shop around if you have something really valuable.
I've not used one before, so I don't know much about them first-hand, but it may be worth a couple of phone calls for you to find if they could be worth your time.
Hope you find a good solution.
