I have been trying to do some cleaning around the shop and I was kicking around the idea of selling my Hexapod 2 that was on The Screen Savers show from what used to be Tech TV. The robot is signed by Sarah, Kevin, Patrick, and Yoshi. :smiley:

This robot hereā€¦

More informationā€¦

So I want to get a good audience (good price) and not screw it up. Anyone have any tips on doing this correctly?

How much are you going to sell this for,[size=9]PLEASE Make It $24 :stuck_out_tongue: [/size]

Youā€™re deffinately going to want good sharp images of each signature. This calls for some good lighting and fine tuning your cameraā€™s options. Lets see those Camera skills Jim! 8)

For some reason,I think that Beth Takes the pictures,Iā€™ve Never heard of Jim doing it.

The nice looking geeky chick signature is the only one worth paying for. lol. sorry Screen Saver Dudes - hubby included. You just donā€™t hold the value in my eyes as well as the pretty Mrs.

now the bot, that will hold its value

I have no earthly ideaā€¦ :stuck_out_tongue:

I havenā€™t dold it yet. :wink:

I donā€™t know anything about E-bay, and I donā€™t want to foul this up by making silly mistakes. So I will just have to back burner the project for now.

You Havenā€™t ā€œdoldā€ it yet? and i was thinking about a trade :stuck_out_tongue: Oh well :frowning:

Jim,
Just do a test with something not necessarily worth a lot, say a prototype of something that someone else in the world might find cool but from a bussiness standpoint you decided would not have enough mass appeal to warrant turning into a regular product. That would let you generate a few smaller sales to get some ebay seller experience with their system before listing stuff of significant value. In my opinion it canā€™t be tremendously difficult as my folks are not especially computer savy and they have been buying/selling misc. stuff on ebay for a couple years now. :unamused:

Right :slight_smile: Heres the plan,[size=75]when jim sells something on ebay,you buy and then he will just say "Oh,Selling stuff on ebay is easy :unamused: " so then he will sell the screen saver hexapod,and i can buy it :wink:[/size]
