Has anyone here done this? I have a brand new pocket pc to sell and have had no response from the paper. Is EBAY a bit dodgy or would you recommend it?
 Never used anything like it before so seems a bit scary that there's not a lot you can do if someone doesn't pay up.

i've sold a few bits, nothing that expensive though. thing is as long as you accept paypal or say you wont send stuff until cheque is cleared you shouldnt have any problems. and if someone bids wins and doesnt pay all you've lost is the listing fees.

depends on how much you start bidding at, and how much it sells for. but obviously you wont mind paying the higher fees if you're whatever goes for loads of money

nothing to become a seller
to list somethig, for a basic thing with low start price - around 20-30p
selling fee is i think 5.25% of final price (up to 100 quid) less %age if over 100 quid

I've tried to sell domains names I didn't need any more, they went for no money at all and they buyers didn't bother paying
I've sold a few camera bits quite successfully.

Because you arse wiper, you needed to confirm your new e-mail address by accessing you old e-mail address at the time. And yes -- i know you don't need to now but i cannot change it now because i already have set up a new eBay account on my new e-mail addrees
